    For those of you just getting into the game, the servers are down/wonky right now, so they wont be working. We've been promised that its temporary, although how temporary is up in the air.

    I would just to apologise for rage quitting in a game earlier. Each game I played with pretentious on my team, he called me an idiot after I died, and after I lost a duel with slither he just would not shut up about what a horrible player I am. I lost my head and quit the game, and for that I am sincerely sorry. I hope I will be able to play with you all again some time.

    You really have to understand something about Pretentious - he is what it says on the tin.

    (j/k - we <3 you PT)

    So far as I can tell, Pretentious basically just mocks everyone for everything. It is a "tough love" kind of deal.

    Just played the beta (kinda, it ran very slow on my PC). This just looks like vanilla DoTA. And are the characters you play as determined by what player slot you get?

    Noob servers are, in my experienced, farmed by highly skilled players to up that four digit number next to their name.

    This game works like this:

    You screw up, and people hate you

    You learn from the screw up

    People hate you for another screw up.

    rinse dry repeat.

    Eventually, you get good enough to hold your own against most, and even then, you get whomped and people hate you.

    Deal with it.

    Well, I quit a game with PA players in it. Sorry about that. It's the first time I've left a game but its also the first time I've seen so much crap from my "teammates." What is surprising is it wasnt even Pretentious :P.

    The game has one helluva learning curve. Beat your way through the "feeling stupid" section of the game (using other players as knowledge base) and your in for some very satisfying team gaming.

    Yeah the learning curve is BRUTAL. Most of us who are halfway decent had spent a good amount of time in DOTA which has spanned years since it came out so HoN isn't really that difficult. As far as internet communities go, I'll take HoN's over Xbox Live any day. Even Bnet kiddies aren't half as bad.

    I realise in hindsight I did a mistake, but considering I was one hit from killing you I do not consider it a huge one. I guess I am just not thick skinned enough, I can't take people shouting at me for several minutes after I suffered a humiliating death. That is fine, there are people to play with besides Pretentious.
