General Rules & Guidelines

IN ADDITION TO OUR USER AGREEMENT HERE ARE SOME BASIC RULES AND GUIDELINES ALL USERS ARE EXPECTED TO FOLLOW WHEN USING dotafire.com

Accounts

Members are permitted to open one account only. Members found to be operating more than one account may have any or all accounts removed at the discretion of DOTAFire. If you are having trouble accessing your account reset your password or contact our support before creating a new account.

Voting

Each member is expected to vote in good faith and without bias casting a single vote on any active build on the site. Working around site fail safes, bribing, falsifying or otherwise "fixing" voting on any build, comment, hero or other content is strictly forbidden. You get 1 vote and 1 vote only, use it wisely.

Spamming

Commercial Spam: Unauthorized advertising on DOTAFire is not allowed anywhere. Related banners and links may be used in signatures and posts at the discretion of DOTAFire. Should any material be deemed unacceptable it must be removed immediately.

Build Advertising: Do not post links or otherwise advertise your builds in comments and forum threads. There are pages and lists across the site to show your build to those who want to visit it. Pasting your build link in relevant conversation is one thing, dropping links and otherwise advertising around the site in an attempt to get more visits is another. Don't make us create a Dunce topic, leave the spam alone. You can read more about this rule here.

Build Spamming: Or the art of creating builds faster than superman. There are guest and draft(private) features on the site. If you want to mess around use them and keep it off the public boards.

Topic Rules

Don't hijack threads, create your own. Keep topics on topic. This site is a place for fans of Defense of the Ancients 2 to share battle strategy and discuss all things DotA2. There is an off topic forum thread for anything that isn't related to Defense of the Ancients 2. Keep all the off topic stuff there.

Bullying

While DOTAFire prides ourselves on letting you be you, there is always a line you can't cross. Excessive aggression, constant harassment, stalking or any other type of bullying behavior is not allowed. Speak your mind, but lets talk how we do in person, when someone can reach over the table and grab you by the collar :)

Adult/Illegal Material

No adult or illegal material of any kind including, but not limited to, video, pictures, links, discussion, or access information will be allowed anywhere on the site.
