It's ok to not appreciate fine collective clownishness if you don't want to. | ||

It's Valve's fault for spoiling the community in the first place. I don't recall but did Frostivus/Greeviling event give so much items too? | ||

It only gave you rares of mythicals the first day it was out. They later changed it to give mainly commons. | ||

But I also don't like people saying doto, I probably just hate fun. Kind like saying romanians dont know sarcasm, flamewheels wats, spamming shadow of the bat, special tactics or several other TL related memes that lasted little or quite a long amount of time. TL has never been completelly free of memes, and low content posting in moderation has always been part of the site. There is just a time and place for that sort of thing and the mods though Twitch faces could get out of hand. Like image macros. Rules dont have to be the same for every topic, like religion discussion is often banned but other similar controversial topics are not. | ||

Imagine if Valve released Diretide but no items/battle points can be gained. Worse shitstorm probably. | ||

The whole purposely spelling things wrong I've never really found all that funny, but that didn't really catch on until I was out of the age to find that funny probably. I think in some weird way saying 'shadow of the bat' or 'son of magnus' has more substance.Kind like saying romanians dont know sarcasm, flamewheels wats, spamming shadow of the bat, special tactics or several other TL related memes that lasted little or quite a long amount of time.

That said the whole constantly repeating memes wasn't all that big from what I remember either. | ||

Is it because he's a somewhat "ancient" hero, or was he announced and finally not released? I dunno if he's a meme or a poster-child or non-released heroes. Terrorblade is a hero that's somewhat surprising he hasn't been released considering he is quite old and iconic. Presumably because he's being reworked. The only old heroes left are Techies, Pitlord, and Terrorblade. And Pitlord we know is being reworked. (pitlord aint that old anyway) | ||
