      Should have the right to be prejudice to someone that queues with English selected but talks in their native language.

      ФАНТОМ РИКИ!!!!

        When I queue English I speak English and I still get people making racist remarks.

        It's not even about the language anymore, now it's just blatant racism.

          Everyone is a racist online. Because it's either how they are in real life or they love to troll or because they are hidden behind the computer. It sucks but you have to suck it up and either go along with it or ignore it. And this is coming from a black guy.

          ФАНТОМ РИКИ!!!!

            By the way realize that sometimes they don't match you with your language preferences. So next time you get someone speaking another language in one of your games, please don't just assume that they selected English.

              Because people are dumb anyway.

                  Also people who say there are a lot of Russians speaking Russian in game, I have only encountered like 20 Russians speaking Russian out of 300 games.

                        We want more servers, not server lock!

                        Server lock just brings animosity and that's not good.

                        We should allow people to freely choose servers, but with more servers to choose from!!!

                          I'm currently researching the topic and it's very annoying how if you type in Dota 2 you see a bunch of bullshit threads with bad players blaming Russians and Pinoys for their own bad skills and then asking for a region lock.

                          We don't need a region lock, we need to learn to take responsibility for ourselves and stop being racist.

                            If you want to generalize them:
                            EU = nazi
                            USA = bombocracy

                            easy...

                              What's wrong with calling someone a dirty Russian and telling them to go play in traffic?

                                This guy in one of my games once had a sweet Caribbean accent so I was like awesome dude are you from Jamaica? He got very offended and say no what are you some kind of idiot? I'm from Trinidad!

                                Does that make me racist for not being able to distinguish?

                                ФАНТОМ РИКИ!!!!

                                  No, it doesn't make you racist for not being able to distinguish.

                                  But if they say they're from Trinidad and you say "but that's Jamaica, its the same" then you're being racist.

                                  Here's an example.
                                  I had a friend from Belarus.
                                  "Are you Russian"
                                  "No, I'm from Belarus."
                                  "So you're Russian."
                                  "No, I'm Belarussian."
                                  "That's the same thing." That would be offensive.

                                  Asking "are you Russian" is not offensive or racist. Insisting he's Russian after he says he's not because "its the same thing" is racist.
