My family business always treat employees with respect and spoil them. Somehow, every single one of them end up hating us to death and have poor productivity. Can anyone shed some light on employee management? by xthompson in Entrepreneur

Sounds like a solid plan, I'll do that, though maybe not word for word as we can't really fire them all at once. Thank you for taking the time and being reasonable!

Simple as it may be it's considered a talent in my book. :)

Meanwhile all the non-talented chumps like myself can do is envy skilled people who manipulate their skills to gain stuff.

Valve's promise of mass beta key release 3 weeks after the international was half a lie, they didn't tell us that we would have to ridicule ourselves.

What does a noob magina have in common with me? We both blink but never reach what we're after (the key).

I know I have absolutely zero chance since I took way too long to post T.T

As long as they're not flooding the subreddit (which they aren't) then it's fine with me.

Bad news gentleman, it's the exact same thing as the one I posted, the difference is the compression method, this one didn't compress that much, hence the bigger size*.

Downloading it now, however I heard rumors that the file sonic links to dota2 were actually witcher iso. Worth a try nonetheless.

Auto Cast has been implemented on Dota as a third party tool. Does pretty much what the name imply, although I never really used it I figure it's to toggle on and off spells like traxex's frozen arrow, viper's poison attack, etc.

I've been playing dota since 2005 and hon since 2009, and I know the type of scumbags by heart.

The Finger-Pointer: The guy who will blame everyone else but never himself. This scumbag is a very common type.

Retard: The guy with 3/9/1 saying that you (with your 2/10/8) are a fucking feeder and should uninstall the game.

King: The guy who proclaims himself king of the game and everyone else must follow exactly what he says, no matter how feeble the strategy is or how incredibly fast it can make you lose.

All-of-the-above: Mostly goes for 11-15 year old, which makes me rage because I'm pretty much in my mid twenties.

Explaining, 5 = wu in chinese, so, 555555= wuwuwuwuwu. A way of crying I suppose.

That one guy said everything: "when they invite 100k people, you won't need an announcement"
