  @cassidopix @DOTA2 I have no way to fix this. It's on the developers and you'll have to contact them about it.

  @AmmarAlassaf6 @DOTA2 Since 2023 my comms score dropped from 12K to 7K. Muted mic, stopped texting, tried to be nice. After 2 years I’m only at 7420. This system is just broken.

  @MohammadMash99 @DOTA2 I would calm down if the game would actually work at all after the patch. Updated everything that is possible to update, reinstalled the entire game, yet still I cant even "Demo" a hero without the game crashing to desktop without as much as an error message.

  @DOTA2 hey, you kicked me out of the game after it ended because of your own synchronization problem and now i cant even play single player. This is ridicilous.

  @uNoNeedToKnowMi @teamsecret @DOTA2 They banned those account with a”trap” to be sure of what they were doing, and fixed and patched the problem. They can still play dota? Yes. With the same account? No. Will they be able to cheat again? No. (Or not anytime soon, dota client is pretty safe though)

  @DOTA2 So are you going to adress the issue where several players litterally can not play the game? It has been like this all day, updated display drivers, reinstalled Dota. This is actually unacceptable.

  @DOTA2 BAN SA obviously hints are given for their benefit. This was an issue from other tournament before and they addressed it.

  When will @DOTA2 / @Steam let you keep voice line and stickers etc that you either paid for or grind for. It use to be that way before...what change? I want to keep some of my old voice line not disregard them because there's new 1s to pay for. Please fix

  The production quality and viewing experience really gets worse and worse every @DOTA2 Major. The talent is amazing as always, but the tech issues and sets are not worthy of a Major.

  @DOTA2 Can you now fix your matchmaking algo? Took us less than a week to figure it and we’re getting almost free mmr all the time. Maybe use some skill/stats based MM instead of just the retarded 40-40-20 approach? Thx.

  @DOTA2 please fix Earthshaker Arcana. Combo gems not working.

  Abhishek Barari (@AbhishekBarari) reported 40 minutes ago

  @DOTA2 the most important change in UI that Dota needs is to remove passives from Hotkey Setup. That would fix 90% of the Hotkey issues. Passives should be moved to the right and should not require an assigned hotkey.

  @DOTA2 Why is behavior score a higher priority than MMR? Why **** up matchmaking AND battle pass? Ffs fix this **** already

  @Steam @DOTA2 you guys should make the rules about Smurfing in DotA much more strickt. in 10 Games you get like 8 Smurfs everytime a ******* Event is on. If you want the player base to play the event, than fix the ****. But i guess you guys dont give a ****....

  @DOTA2 @valvesoftware I also tried reaching out to the customer service on all platforms including reddit but to no avail but I was luck to come across @latech00 on INSTAGRAM who got me unbanned in 40 minutes Man It Like Magic to me just go to him

  @IceFrog @DOTA2 Should if possible allow in custom lobbies let admin save games in pause. That way if there is issues that call for remake you can load up the saved pause file and resume. Would save a lot of time in delays due to player or server side bugs/problems.

  @valvesoftware @DOTA2 @gabennewells guys, please improve the behaviour score mekanism of this **** show. people are getting punished for being toxic/rude with idiots which buy accounts and cannot play this game. FIX IT ONCE AND FOREVER.
