ENT Gaming

Can we add a "Did you know - using animal courier to explode techies mines is glitch abuse"

I meant to add this when game starts on dota for a while.

The issue here is that a lot of players still haven't learned the rule, and when they are told the rule in game they simply think it's a lie. Yes, eventually people will get banned enough to learn, but why go through all that?

where are the rules?

Why dont you send a mail with the rules when user creates account?

This rule is wrong, it removes your freedom to move your courier away of pre defined paths (wich is usefull to prevent courier to get killed by enemies)
also courier can trigger mines on it's way to deliver an item.

I got banned myself for this and it is just dumb my courier never reached a mine, admins are abusing this, but of course why would we care about making dota fair? it's already the less supporting more agressive comunity and are all proud of it.

The rules are on the ENT wiki. You can't be banned for moving a courier and keeping it from dying. It where's it's clear that you were trying to check for mines. If there's no good reason for your courier to be in a particular place (shopping or delivering items, or avoiding its own death), then it's clear you are looking for mines.

people may play on battlenet without an ENT account.

Plus u can appeal when u get banned and if it's ur first offense, u always get unbanned. I think the rules are pretty fair here thats why we all staying.

Announcements run every fifteen minutes. There is no way to display this announcement as the game starts.

It has been a while since we started to enforce this rule, almost 2 months. Those who refuse to listen, or to check rules as people in-game tell them that using courier to kill mines is ban-able are those who don't care about the rules and will be banned upon request.

We have communication channels to keep players up to date about rules. If they won't care to check, we won't babysit them.

Announcement won't change anything about it, denied.
