IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Great if it actually gets restored, but still not forgiving the guy for all the shit he's done. Backstabbing the DotA community and tempting the pros with money to switch to LoL aren't easy things to forgive.

This is also ironic since Riot devs/forum moderators regularly trash dota on their messageboards. I'm happy Valve doesn't get down on their level.


You dont need to trash other games if you believe your product is better. Them trashing dota only shows how insecure they are about their own product. Let the game speak for itself.

Agreed. Especially since that tradition was continued at the place he works now. Exclusivity contracts with IPL, IEM, Dreamhack and then whole story about trying to force teams to have drop support for other similar games. It just leaves a very bad taste.

He can restore the DA DB now because there were enough dota version in between, now everything in that DB is irrelevant. So it's win win for him.

I think we should leave the conspiracy theories out of this. The guy was a bit of a dick and failed to make up on his promises, we all know that. He's also now made another promise to bring the forums back up, which is decently nice of him. Let's just accept that instead of trying to cook up the 'true reason why he wants to do this', there isn't anything to be gained by that.

Dota-Allstars is finally going to be avalible in read-only mode.


I wonder why hes trying to amend his relationship with the dota community. Maybe hes going to lose his job at riot soon for being a huge douchebag.

I don't think he will lose his job at Riot, but this is just a PR move. Like I said in the reddit thread, this is just a PR move because Riot's Season 3 is coming soon and they don't wanna other communities to throw shit at them.

Pendragon is a scumbag, and even if he give us back the damn website he will not change. Fuck Pendragon, and fuck Riot.

Many people don't realize that he burned down d-a when he was already contracted and working for Riot...


It was pretty disheartening even until today. So many guides/legendary achieves posted on that website during that period (iirc 2004-2008) and most of them basically disappeared in one night. And since alot people moved on from dota prior or during that period of time, not many people care enough to repost their work on PD. From what i see is that many old DA members didn't even register on PD to continue to contribute their work like they did on DA. Pendragon is the biggest douche I have ever known on internet. Not to mention that alot of members 'lost' their first dota home. It was obviously disastrous on Icefrog's end.

i remember writing so many guides on it and it just disappeared one day. made me just ragequit :'(

So... about diretide eggs and their hatch mechanism.. According to this "Expiration dates will be removed from Essences. A right-click option to Hatch your egg will be implemented instead."

Does anyone have a more official source for that? Still not sure whether I should put my unusual essences into my shadow egg now or keep them seperated.

Pendragon is a twat. If he acturally believes any legit community memebers will change their minds, he is mistaken.
That being said, Icefrog is probably one of the most intelligent and commited dev I have ever seen. As someone who messed around with the map editior at a reasonably high level, I am very impressed with how he has handled DotA over the years
Stop browsing and do whatever it is you're supposed to do. TL will still be here when you get back

I wonder what Icefrog thinks about all these items and events directly related to items. Probably doesn't complain.

Seeing as he wants to implement the fun modes again I don't think the cares very much. Not like it affects the competitive scene.

Christmas pudge is the ugliest thing that was ever in DotA. Didn't IceFrog remove him sooner than the rest of the christmas theme stuff in the patch?
