DoTA nowadays is starting to become a kind of sport.

Thou shall respect the game.

Thou shall not be a noob.

Thou shall learn from mistakes.

When you are winning you can lanci, but you must have a limit. Control yourself.

When you lose and leave a game, you are not respecting the game. You should never to play it again

Actually people get angry when someone leave a game or spoil a game is because they felt not respected. People doing such annoying action SHOULD BE TAUGHT A LESSON.

This is a world of survival. The strong may bully weak ones. So live with it.......

LoL simonyw you're so right. Sometimes there are people who just don't understand what is 'ethical gaming'. When someone beats someone up, the person who's using physical violence is wrong, but that doesn't mean the person who gets beaten up is right either. Of course most people wants to win a game, but gaming is not about winning or losing. If it's only about winning and losing, then there will be no dota or any games other than 'rock, paper, scissors'. Whenever I'm losing a game in dota, I'll try my best to defend for as long as I possibly can. Of course I know my team has very little chance of winning, but some people don't understand the feeling of defending and keep defending until you finally lost the tree/throne and take honor for what you've done, that's defending to the last. The title 'Defense of the Ancients' was changed from many previous names to its current form, and it's used until today because of the meaning. You don't just jump into any game and say 'it's just a game'. That's such a pointless and obvious statement. Who doesn't know it's a game? Everyone knows. However if you jump into such conclusion, it's taken as a disrespect to the game and sometimes, to the extent of an insult to the fans of the game. Sometimes when I go to mamak stalls to catch a football game, I expect to watch it until the game is over, otherwise if I know I am too tired to watch it and unable to watch to the end, I wouldn't go in the first place. When some people see their team lost 3-0 at 70-ish minutes, and leave, I view those people in disgust. Those kind of people can change their idol team every now and then, because they only support who's winning. No sportsmanship at all, and they don't deserve to worship any teams. One season they may support Man Utd, and when Chelsea won the league, they support Chelsea in the next season. What a bunch of losers.
