Forums
The reintegration of LiquidDota forums into TL.net should be complete.
All of the old LiquidDota forums can be seen under the Dota 2 category of the forums list (except for Blogs, which has been merged with TL.net blogs). We've also combined your post counts across LiquidDota and TL.net thanks to R1CH magic 
In terms of the left sidebar, we've decided to only display the Dota 2 General discussion forum at this time. For now, the plan is to make Dota 2 General the 'main' forum for the Dota2 community on TL. Considering the recent level of activity, it seems more efficient for community members to just make new tournament LR threads, strategy threads, and other posts in one unified forum, rather than divide them across the multiple old forums from LiquidDota. Of course, the old forums are still accessible as mentioned above, and they may be added back to the sidebar if it's necessary in the future.
This is just a tentative plan for now, and we're open to making changes to the forums depending on what the TL.net Dota2 community needs.
Calendar
Dota 2 calendar integration is complete. Users may need to toggle Dota2 on in the sidebar settings menu.
Reminder: users still need to submit events manually as before.
Stream list
Stream list is up and running but there might be a few kinks. Please let us know if there are issues or missing streams.
If you have any feedback or find bugs/issues with the Dota2 forums, please post them here.

I know a few people were asking whether the featured streamer list would be transferred.

Calendar/streams being worked on

So we reached the other side! I agree that on general forum should be good for everything. Thanks!!
One question: would it be possible to keep the liquiddota theme for threads in the dota forum?

Okay some setbacks regarding the streamlist, but still something we're looking to achieve soon™. Updated the OP:
Stream list
Unfortunately, we couldn't port the stream display system directly from LiquidDota. While LiquidDota simply pulled information directly from Twitch, TL.net runs on an older system where the streams were manually entered by mods or submitted by users. This worked well for SC2 where all the streamers and progamers were incentivized to come to TL.net and create a streaming listing for themselves, but it's not quite the case for Dota2.
We're going to have to populate an entirely new Dota2 stream list from the ground up, which we'll be looking to do in conjunction with the Dota2 staff and community.

Any way for subscribed threads to be merged between the 2 sites?

I knew something felt off. +1 to this

Aww shucks. I really enjoyed the LiquidDota layout and template colors.

i was like 15 posts away from 6000 and was eagerly waiting to see if i finally get my archon icon. suddenly im well over 7000 and ive already got it. how anti-climactic

This is a minor suggestion/feature request. Is there a possibility of unsubsribing to the News section in the left sidebar? Or making it customizable like the other subforums. I blocked all forums that do not interest me, yet I get a bunch of Starcraft news which I will never read anyway.
|
Feels weird being back on this site... Like a sudden urge to re-install SC2 and get destroyed at it :D
Also, not gonna lie, this is just so I could check my post count haha.
Glad to hear that calendar and streams are in the works! Any idea if we will also get back the "supported team thingy"? (not sure what it's called). It's pretty trivial but I liked them
|
So where do i add Dota Streams to the right sidebar?
I only got it to work on the left.

Okay still some kinks to work out with the stream display
|
About the streams and "for me": I think the organizations would be "important". I often look there, to find the ones, that are online for current tournaments!
Don't know the kinky backend for that

Okay, the streamlist seems to be mostly working but R1CH had to use some EXPERIMENTAL TECH. Let us know if there are problems

Yeah what the hell I'm a ghost now, I never asked for this.

idk where else to ask this that isn't dead:
- Can someone add the Riyadh masters tournament to the calendar?  Riyadh Masters/2022
- Can someone move the general LR to the general part of the dota forum so it's visible in the sidebar? (https://tl.net/forum/dota-2-tournaments/455613-dota-2-general-lr-thread) It's useful and I don't think anyone will see it otherwise since subscribed threads got reset + just realised you can't even post in anything that's not dota general?
