Netopia hates DotA players

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

My friends(who are ironically, Netopia EGI Taft regulars as well) and I were having a YM conference when w00t sent me a photo that his friend took. Apparently, SM Southmall’s Netopia branch doesn’t think very highly of the DotA players in their area. Was it because of the barbarian-like noises we tend to make when playing intense games? The loud trash talking that often leads to fights? Or the general unruliness of the average DotA player?

In any case, they came up with the perfect solution for their dilemma. By charging “DotA Players” 900php/hr! That’s roughly $21 for an hour of DotA! Lovely, isn’t it?

Special thanks to w00t and the e-numan peoples for taking a photo of their ad and sharing it.
