stating the rules for dota

[PwnLikeMe]

When starting a game please make the bot saying that any mine destroyed with chicken is considered bannable offence, because currently that is not clear in any way and it is a valid bannable offence that everybody should be aware of. This will make it easy to avoid thousands of bans.

agreed, and the LOD bot should have an announcement about kraken shell.

Both kraken shell & courier usage on mines are bannable, since they end up being a glitch/exploit of the map (and therefore bannable under General Rules).

Currently there's an announcement on both DotA/LoD bots "Important rule updates regarding courier and kraken shell usage! wiki.entgaming.net" + It was also announced on the wiki news (and other media) - So we've used every channel to inform of the changes made, however it is also a user's responsability to check the forum/wiki for rules update, etc

Considering both situations (Kraken Shell/Courier usage on mines) are bannable as glitch/exploit of the map (which falls under the current general rules), i don't really see a reason to specify it

Besides, bot announcements dont work reliably and game start announcements are just spam and a technical effort we can't consider in our situation.

There's a forum group and mainly the wiki to inform yourselves.
