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.

Mainstream sure but within the communities, they will vary. For example with DotA 2, you have those that refer to it as an ARTS while others use the term dota as a genre in-of-itself.

Blizzard needed their own term because in terms of competition, you just cannot use Dota or moba. Now shall go to all the dota wikipages and change them all to Hero Brawler!

people who play dota call it moba just as much as arts

I've got to say, Hero Brawler actually isn't that bad of a term. It accurately and succinctly summarizes the gameplay.

Lets all spam Volvo's FB and 0/10 metacritic until Valve change the genre to HB!
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

Hero brawler is a terrible term. This isn't BLC.

The term is not actually all that bad. It ties well with the type of game Blizzard is developing. I think Hero Arena would have been better but that term has been used quite a bit in Wc3 already. Given the choices (and context of the game), it works fine. It is not something that rolls off the tongue nor is it that pleasant to say. But in the context, it works fine. (it gets the job done).

It certainly feels that way but I think it's just a mixture of confirmation bias and that shit tons of people have [A] in their name.

Because moba is a term spread by LoL players and DOTA has too many people who can't stand both games being good

The term was populized by Riot. And we know how much the Dota2 community likes Riot.
