Calm down rage kid. I never said that a majority of people play for prize money. I was refering to the fact that they throw around large ammounts of money to keep the game a esport and pay pros alot of money to leave other MOBA games. Fact is that LoL is babies 1st MOBA. Kids who play that terrible game can't stand up to a dota player. I would put money on the terrible Russians and Brazilians who plague dota2 then a decent LoL player
Maybe you should stop using a MOBA game for example on a sandbox MMO. They are not the same at all. Jorbtar cant throw around the money like riot does to make it as big as they are now.
Again you, Being the all knowing Dallane, missed the point of my post entirely, what you seem to do, ever so often on these forums.
I was putting across the way the community developed from almost nothing to millions, before they even announced "prized contests" to the mass population of the game, even though all the ""PRO DOTA PLAYERS" as you put it plagued the lol forums in early beta, saying how pathetic and worthless the game is / was, would never become big or anything, never put anything positive into the game. These people remind me of alot of forum users i see here, you would only understand this if you was in the early beta stages / development of league of legends.
So again, stop using the term "throwing money around", because yea that pushed it from a "BIG GAME" > "THE BIGGEST", but when it got to its first 100-500k players, it had NOTHING AND I MEAN NOTHING to do with competitive play or contest money, and no matter how much people bashed it or insisted the game would never have a "huge playerbase", like you and your friends are bent on ensuring (500-2000 players seems to be the goal the fellowship seem to put across) to salem, the dev team changed there tunes, got with the program, removed such toxic players from the forums, pushed forward with kindness etc, because yes, the devs from LoL were/are the elitist from DoTA.
So yea, im raging. Hard RAGE, RAWR !. Scary.
EDIT: Again you can compare any games development + community to any another game on the market, such things have little to do with the game Play but how the game + devs + mods portray themselves to the growing community. If Jorb / Lofta + paradox / seatribe are happy with a <1000 active playerbase, then let them announce it, untill then ill push forth with strong ideas which people agree on to help this community grow, and nothing you say dallane will ever stop this.
