99% of people would be embarrassed to go out into public with that because it is cringeworthy. I mean I get some people are ''passionate'' for the game, but jeez. It doesn't even look that good either and literally almost every person on the planet will ask themselves ''why does that dude have a mirrored percentage sign on the side of his head?''.
All we need is a video of them saying some cheezy bullshit and you will have your equivalent of team siren in league of legends.
omg so cringeworthy XD
Seriously, can people stop using that word? It's so nonsensical and annoying.
I think it looks pretty cool, it's like getting a tattoo. Who the fuck cares what other people think of them, as long as you're satisfied with them and how they look? They didn't get it done to please you, they did it for themselves. Get over yourself please.
It makes me get some feeling of embarrassment through the internet, cringe. So I use that term. I don't see how it's ''nonsensical''. I also believe that public perception is important, while feeling good about yourself is ok you don't see people do stuff like wearing sweatpants to everywhere because they're comfortable as fuck.
Maybe I was wrong to criticize nerd fashion in a nerd forum. My bad Also, I like how you portray my post by adding ''omg'' and ''ex dee''. Contributed to your point a lot.

Its nonsensical as hell and you know it.
I don't think you know what ''nonsensical'' means.
Now that we're done with that shitty hair discussion, I repeat my question: has there been any new info on any some sort of solo ranking system? Like points(apart level which means nothing) or leagues?

There is one, but there are no plans to make it publicly visible. First, Valve isn't confident in theor current rating system. Second, when people can use their number instead of actual thought out point in an argument, they usually do. And then they behave like dicks. Therefore we don't get a number.

Valve needs to learn from CCP and stop with the carebearing bullshit.

Do you have a Valve source for this two points or you are just assuming they think this ?

Gabe Newell has spoken on the fact that they are not happy with the current iteration of MM Ratings a couple of times.
- One example at 18:00 roughly, his other session at LBJ School has some info aswell

gaben's interview at texas university (i think thats the place)
also EVE and dota2 are so far apart as types of games is laughable to compare the two
I've seen the interview, he doesn't really say much and it's been 5 months, if they are unhappy with it doesn't look like they are doing much about it.

I'm not comparing the games, I am comparing the handling of ''mean'' people. In most games, if people are mean to you, you ignore them or mute them yourself. In dota2 people get hurt by every insult ever and report you for it so you get muted and severely punished in a way that hinders your ability to play on a fair level. Like you can't discuss engagement tactics or item progression, because you're muted. You can' ask for a salve or anything because you're muted.
You also don't get any ranking system because people might get hurt when someone insulted their league or something, oh no! Valve should stop treating their playerbase like 5 year olds. I got so annoyed I stopped playing dota2 for about a month now.
I haven't been muted, or put in LPQ, ever. Not to say I don't agree with you in letting people mute who they want, but if people are constantly and consistently being insulting in the large majority of their games then by all means punish them. Maybe muting isn't the right idea, but there has to be a way to get the message through.
