Level up! Choose a perk.
Nov 13, 2011 - by Strom
It's almost a year since DotA-GC was relaunched in web form. Everything has been greatly improved compared to how it was at launch. Still, it is nowhere near of what I envisioned. Dota 2 is around the corner, Dota-League seems to have been shut down, but dota in general still has millions and millions of players and I continue to see great potential in improving DotA-GC. However the reality is that not everything can be done, choices have to be made. With that in mind I have decided to ask all of you, what needs improvement most? I will dedicate half of my time with GC on the winner of this poll.
Also, feel free to leave comments below if you think that the poll choices don't reflect your opinions.

Poll: What should be the focus of DotA-GC going forward?
More games, GC is dying due to too few games! The skill is OK, and with more games gold league can save us! (61%)
Higher skill, I can't stand these noobs! Quantity doesn't mean quality. I want to play good games, not more games. (12%)
What kind of half-assed joint is this? I want more games AND higher skilled games! (10%)
The game count & skill are not the big problems. The chaos in the games is frustrating. People don't know the rules, aren't speaking english and are bad mannered. (12%)
The games and everything about them is fine. What I need is more features outside of the game - more stats, better friend/group management, official ventrilo/mumble server. (4%)

If you pick the wrong hero( on purpose or not) you can just remake and remove yourself when you didnt like the teams or someones picks.

Perhaps a penalty for not joining the game x times in a row.

Pluggers in game shouldnt get 4 minutes to stop plugg!! People can abuse it a lot
Nov 13, 2011 12:08:40 UTC
Yep pay more attention to banrequests, plugging seems easy nowadays. More players means probably gold league right?
Nov 13, 2011 15:39:22 UTC
A better banrequest system.. as u told me the other day, u dont have time to check all requests! May i suggest u find 2 or 3 more admins to help u out! Myabe an admin from each contry? So when i got a problem, i can go to the danish admin, instead of herasing strom on inc. And ofc, the new admins must be someone who is online often, and plays alot. My i suggest some good and respected players like buugie, jakkihirki and sepetos! And btw i agree, its way to easy to plug and avoid getting banned. That should be all:D

Nää säännöt ja niitä valvovat henkilöt on yks iso vitsi.

silver league to 70% and open gold + more statistics.
Nov 13, 2011 17:51:40 UTC
as said: its WAY Too easy to plug.. and theres no active good admins INGAME except strom...
voted for the obvious choice which is *More games, GC is dying due to too few games! The skill is OK, and with more games gold league can save us! (64%)*

Plugging too easy, too easy to get to silver, 4min wait till drop and lack of games. Can't come up with anything else for now, but I'm sure you'll have your hands full with these matters.
Nov 13, 2011 23:05:33 UTC
some bad players aren't afraid of ban. they don't speak english, flame and sometimes they share-abuse. I want a giant ban hammer in gc ! :D
Nov 14, 2011 02:55:45 UTC
plugging is too hard. we need 25 minutes remake time, and entirely remove the banrequest system.
Nov 14, 2011 13:45:49 UTC
strom can u pls mail me on how to send you a ban request?thanks in advance and i have made my choice in the poll questionbox.(it was first one) peace all
Nov 14, 2011 23:31:13 UTC
Make it possible to report rly bad players/ thouse who doesnt follow the rules etc.
Nov 15, 2011 20:15:22 UTC
fix the "ready" bug when people leaves the game but wont remove topic
Nov 16, 2011 19:57:34 UTC
bronze games should be up to 70% and then silver.
Nov 16, 2011 21:18:27 UTC
focus ur attention to better banrequest system... ppl just plug all the time without gettin banned. And its seems like everybody thinks admins not check banrequestes at all (im one of those)...

As I've been saying all these years I've played here... The X system needs to be revamped, I can play a mediocre (or even bad) carry and get +50X or an amazing support and get -30... Increase the X for wards, decrease for leveling/creepstats.
Nov 21, 2011 16:49:09 UTC
Well I will like to add, that it's lame that the game closes before 10 minutes of playtime have been played if someone leave.
Some just leave so they dont get minus X, yet they get the ban (sometimes) but clearly this is lame for those who earned the X up untill the moment of Disc/leave.

x rating is way too much focused on cs and items, impossible to improve your score when you mainly play supports
Nov 22, 2011 19:35:26 UTC
If you don't have any players, no amount of good features is going to save you. Now that DL is down too, the best thing would be to advertise the fuck out of GC and get a ton of new players.
Nov 23, 2011 16:26:29 UTC
Add a stats-reset function pr 100 days like dotalicious has. Shouldn't be hard.
Nov 24, 2011 18:55:20 UTC
Stricter rules when it comes to flaming. More leagues so low rated players can improve, games are usually won by either having imba 99-100% players rape the shit out decent players or lowbobs feeding so much that games become unrecoverable.
Nov 26, 2011 00:14:43 UTC
invite more various skill players, couse sometimes we must w8 1 hour for a game
Nov 27, 2011 12:34:24 UTC
I PLAY IN RGC DUE TO MANAGMENT TODAY IN RGC I WANTED TO TRY OUT DEFRENT CLIENTS BUT DOTA GC IS NO FUN BECOZZ OF TOO LONG W8ING FOR A GAME
Nov 27, 2011 12:35:37 UTC
THIS IS REALLY SICK NO GAME FOR 20 MIN
IS THERE ANY ONE HERE?

The first 10 min rule has got to go 1/7 games is abused, also picking a banned hero gets ppl out of a game that got outpicked. Bring the First blood rule instead of the 10 min rule, and after picks are done ppl cant remove from the game !
Just my 2 cents, but we all have had games ruined like that by people who abuse the system.
