Every group of people / clan / person if wanted downloads this program which they can add usernames to - if that person joins a game, there is an auto-kick function. So, it's really a bot that checks before the game starts.
www.banlist.nl. It registers leavers, and people can add names to it. Most of the lists are local meaning if someone has put you on a banlist then the likelihood is you join another game and you're not banned in that one. But there is a certain amount of 'approved hosts' which share all their banlists and people can download those. If you're on one then you can appeal them on their forums to overturn the banlists.
Er... damn, banlist ain't just for dota. Actually I find it useful for keeping track of people. I usually don't use ban or kick or any other "evil" functions. It has a rating system. You can add info notes and ban notes(that I use for diffrent purposes, like a second info category).
Wonderpriest - I've always wondered what breed of people everybody from the dota community is... (Like, then seem never to think, they probably do not know the meaning of the word "Logic")
Hm... yeah I play alot DotA and seek pro games with good hosts or so who has atleast country check and ping ^^ Banlist prevents some of people who ruin these games to ruin other games.
If in game name is saied for Experts and then comes some guy and starts ruining game what takes 1h atleast or so then it is real time waste. To prevent that these kind of people are banned.
Atleast it was first made for it.
Sooda imagine this:
You play singleplayer, you beat the hell out of hard computer 1 against 3 and decide it coudl be a good tiem to go on multiplayer. You ask anyone how to join - They say press custom map thingy game or sword. You decide try custom game. Yo usee whoel screen of "Dota Dota Dota"
Its writthen - experts, pro etc. You think - I play not bad, why not to try it?
Enter the game. You buy a recipe paper without items and voila. Youre banned till the end of your days.
Is that fair?
You ban people for ruinign games eh? Well you ruin their day by banning them. So what, they should bann you on the real life? And then of course, share heir banlist. In that case, all you will be able to do is to sit in the closet and play dota - Everyone knows you, everyoen ignores you. Happy end.

It never fails that as soon as I say something about the bots they come back - this time they are under a whole new IP range - one thing in common though, Chinese!
