    Dota 2 Pauses

    dota2://matchid=553155912&matchtime=2860

    Something seriously needs to be done about this. I feel like there needs to be a thread or site dedicated; to where we can submit replays of incidents like these. It's unfair to connect back into a game 2 minutes later to find out the enemy team could not be bothered to wait 3 or so minutes for you to reconnect, all because they wanted to scoop up a "free win" in a game they were highly likely to lose. Something NEEDS to be done about this otherwise it will always continue to happen!

    In public matches, nobody is entitled to wait for you. If you disconnected, it is your fault. Sounds harsh but that's the fact.

    JFYI: I usually wait unless the opponent is disconnecting many times and long durations.

        Just because it's a public match it doesn't mean it has to be "that" way. And we can't fix the connection if it's out of our control. Unfortunately it's a problem due to the phone lines being damaged and it's Telstra's responsibility to fix it; and unfortunately they won't fix it unless it's severely damaged plus they have a bad reputation for getting things done late. In any case I was just under a lot of emotion at the time due to a loss streak and the fact that the game was well and truely ours until that shenanigans took place.
