So I know this community is extremely small in comparison to the dota subreddit, and it’s unlikely that we’ll see many users move over here for now, but I just want to say I’m glad to be part of this place, and I hope that the culture here will be a lot less toxic, unforgiving and grumpy than the one that seems to plague the dota subreddit.
I dropped by the sub today and all I feel as I read the comments is frustration and more frustration as I see people hurl insults and vitriol at players and the organizers and each other. Team Tundra and Betboom had a marathon of a game, and armchair quarterbacks crawl out from the woodwork to tear down Sneyking and the team.
I’m not saying that there’s nothing to criticize, or that we should censor criticism, but my point is that that sub has just turned into a black hole of negativity, and whatever that’s good about anything happening at the Bali Major or with dota in general gets overshadowed by all the badmouthing and trolling that goes on there.
So even if good content may come few and far between here, I’m at least looking forward to good, meaningful conversations here, and a more mature and refined culture to follow. And if you haven’t, watch the highlights for that BB vs Tundra g2. Cap and SVG owned the commentary, and both teams played their hearts out.
Im not in dota 2 sub for a long time, ootl here, wtf is happening?
If you’re talking about the dota subreddit, nothing significant as far as I know, just a gradual decline in the quality of conversations going on over there that was made really apparent once I took a break from that sub.
Come join us at !dota2@lemm.ee because it seems like the mod here is not active anymore :)
What kind of activity do you want to see from a mod?
I answered this over here

If you read the posts and look at when they were posted it should all be clear.
