Have you ever tried to play your Dota 2, get your dota duders in the lanes and click the things, only to find that someone on your team isn't as good at clicking the things? Well, here's a kickstarter for you: a third-party banlist!


Whitelist Level 2 is the $8 pledge reward, while each admin level is a pledge reward: $25 for basic admin, $100 for source admin, $500 for God Mode admin.

It seems too obvious to mention but allowing people to buy admin privileges would promote exactly the type of lovely super-serious people who you'd want to avoid, not to mention an auto-abandon function would be immensely obnoxious for the rest of your team.

There's a nonzero chance that getting self-selecting DOTA hardcore kiddies to isolate themselves from the rest of humanity *might* make the game enjoyable.

Lore still have one of the best Risk & Challenges section.

quote:

We are making an action RPG game name Lore. This is a game that consists of a few elements from other great games. Our first goal is to get a full team because it is only I and one other person at the moment and we lack numbers to give our project full life. I am currently finding other great artist so that I can complete my team. Our second goal is to start a website to give a visual and details about our creation. This website will also allow us to build a relationship with our supporters and help us start a community for Lore where they can gain full access to in game videos, game music, concept art, updates, game demos and much more. The next goal is to start working on the game itself the story line has already been worked out as well as the setting of the world.
This game is based on Lore from the Greek Gods, The Sphinx and Pharaoh, The Minotaur and the Labyrinth, and these are a few characters we want to bring to life in our video game. We are taking stories from the past and giving them life in a video game world. We are also focusing on fun and challenging combat such as being able to hit and strike matters for example to slow him down you would be able to focus on a monsters leg to decapitate it. You will also be able to strike his eyes to blind him so he can no longer see you this are just a few things we will be putting into Lore.
The greatest risk this project faces is it never getting to see the light of day but I am driven to overcome that. When I am passionate about something I don’t let anything stop me from reaching my goals. I have gained a lot of friends and followers on social networking sites such as YouTube and Face Book, and some that I game with on The Dark Souls forms and Twisted Metal forms who are ready to support this project because they believe in me and what I am creating. I had one project rejected but that didn’t stop me because if I have to make twenty more I shall do so until Its funded because I have people who trust and believe in this project and I refuse to let them down. There will be things this project will face but we have a vision and we know what we have to do to overcome it and we will continue to be open to constructive criticism and looking to bring people together and invest in great material.
We understand this is something that has never been done but in 1492 Christopher Columbus went out into the sea and everybody told him he was going to fall off the end of the world but with his risk and passion we now know the earth is round and without his will and guts we would not be where we are today. The point i am trying to make nothing is risk free 16 years ago there was no internet but one man changed that. HEDY LAMARR was a actresses in the 1930's she came up with guided torpedoes for world war 2 she called and called the US army, government but no one listened because she was beauty and she was a actresses. My point is no one can understand vision if it was the 1930's are 1492 would kickstarter be a place to support like Hedy Lamarr and Christopher Columbus.
P.S We want to give a big thanks to the creative minds at Kickstarter for making visions like this possible and I wish you all much more success. I believe that every great idea starts with one person but it takes others to believe in it to make it come true. I hope you all can see and believe what we are trying to accomplish.

He got permabanned last November over some stuff that happened in SA Mart but allowed back to organise refunds and he pretty much stopped posting after that, unless he reregged under a new account.

the lore guy is clearly not damaged enough to type thousands of words and (supposedly) make 3d models

just because you got hit in the head or have extra dna doesn't make you somehow immune to criticism. I've met people with downs who could make a better kickstarter than this guy.

The Reading Rainbow Kickstarter is over $3.5 million and still has almost 3 weeks to go. :woop:

Levar has also managed to get a whole bunch of Star Trek actors to sign up for Reading Rainbow live events including William Shatner and Patrick Stewart. Imagine either of those guys reading kids books, they'd both be amazing for totally different reasons. :allears:

Patrick Stewart no longer auditions to movies; he just shows up on set, walks up to the director and goes "Hello, I am the star of your movie now." and, welp, he is.
