Try playing something like Dota/HoN/XboxLive/WoW and you'll see that we have it pretty good. wc3 in general. it wasn't even just DotA lol. But yeah I don't mind this community half as much as the ones that used to be on wcr =/ | ||

I think time will leave us with something better. The heart is there. I dont care if the community is respectful or not, but the OP is obviously correct in that the whole community is overwhelmingly NOT. | ||

That is, the fact that it's core is populated by internet identities. With internet identities comes volatility and a tendency for people to devolve into having prepubescent tendencies. I don't know about you, but when I go watch a sporting event, there's a ton of BM assholes. | ||

Its also hard to be genuinely funny, but sadly that doesn't stop most people from trying to come up with the wittiest response. | ||

I'm reminded of when Blizzard said they were going to force their WoW forum users to display the poster's real name, and how everyone got outraged that their identities would be compromised. Its a lot harder to be mean spirited when you remember that the person you're dealing with is also another human being. That's why live community events are better; you have to interact with other people face to face. Its also hard to be genuinely funny, but sadly that doesn't stop most people from trying to come up with the wittiest response. I don't know for sure if you're making this statement or not, but the bolded part makes me think that you're arguing that people didn't like the real name idea because then they might feel like they're talking to a real person. Let me assure you this isn't the case. Facebook uses real names(most people do at least) and there's still plenty of assholes and arguing. People didn't want real names on Blizzard forums because of the potential for real life harassment and safety issues. | ||

When in a time of serious need post a thread about it and see what happens. You will see what kind of community this is. | ||
