So Teamliquid retains their SC2 GD thread and even the sub-LoL retains their off topic GD thread, the later of which is especially hilarious given how aggressive TL's stance was on making TL.net a Starcraft centric site but insists on keeping that portion on TL for god knows why.
I digress, creating a "tavern" is understandable given how out of hand it became but creating a separate sub section is like putting a small bandaid over a bullet wound. You really want to improve the quality of discussion on the site as a whole is going to be through strict moderation which is currently absent from liquiddota.
TL.net led this example by having absolutely no tolerance for shit posting and bad user behavior, this site is not even close to adhering to those standards.

You think they will work? Dota community had always a lot of banter. If you want to have non-serious topics and postings, it will be very difficult to draw a line for higher moderation standards due to the nature of Dota.

EDIT: got rekt and transferred to appropriate thread :D

I mean if u wanna make a ferrari fanclub I think it would go in the general section not the tavern section.
Regardless, this welcome thread is distinctly NOT a GD-style thread, it's more of an announcement. Posting ferrari stats in it is exceedingly off topic.
Also the whole point of reddit is as a content-aggregation community. Trying to aggregate reddit content onto LD is really stupid.
Also posting "ferrari is one of the greatest dota players ever" is roughly equivalent to posting "the sky is blue". While ur not wrong, one questions the need for such posts.

Poor Goody ![](/mirror/smilies/puh2.gif)
No, this is not a new GD thread. Heyoka made an entire forum to kind of replace the need of a GD thread.

oh ok that means go status .. i'll create one immediately (i don't see one ferrari_430 fan thread )
|
So does that mean we can make tons of ridiculous topics about hero graphs and irc chat okay cool great idea guys

I really disagree with the premise that new threads should be made for topics that pop up in gd threads.
with the amount of silly topics we come up with, it'd turn the entire subforum into a clusterfuck of inane topics like "lol what buttons do you use for items", "who has the best stream music", and "is warlock a good counter to splitpushing lycans" - each of which die in a max of 3 pages and stagnate themselves into oblivion.
and all this is disregarding the fact that a lot of the time dumb (amusing) discussions only happen because the aggregation of people continuously browsing that single thread. which I admit is a retarded closed loop because people only coalesce on a single thread because of the dumb discussion..

I don't know, I have always felt that LD needed an "Awesome, confusing BM" thread. Sure the QQ thread handles some of that, but nothing compared to the joy that the original thread on TL has. No one has been told to "Step on a Lego" and that might be something that tavern really needs.
Maybe once I get home.

so can we have your thoughts on the new bloodseeker nazgul?

This is completely unrelated to anything involving the Tavern, but there is no GD anymore, so I am posting it here.
It appears from reports on twitter that TB has existed surgery for his cancer treatment and the doctors have reported to the surgery to be successful.
So the current score is: TB 1 / Cancer 0
Let us all rejoice by playing a game at 60 frames a second and adjusting our POV sliders.

Is it okay if I make a joke about terrorblade here?
No?
Alright cool. hope he recovers well.

I thought tb was cancer so it would be a tie score? Can you even fight yourself at that point so the whole thing is null?
