They should not single out Icefrog, since he's not the only one to handle that map's development.

Icefrog is my god. He doesn't do a shit and yet he gets all the credits (and the blame). But anyways, i seriously doubt they have stolen anything. And even if they did, so what? There's a lot of maps out there that steals everything they can see, and some people even claim that they have made the resources themselves.

oh well, regardless that map steals any resource or not, those who only plays and never got into map modding doesn't give a shit about it, they just "OMG awesome" then keep playing as usual.

about that DotA map, since the introduction of Hero who can spell steal, its getting more difficult to google that dota map steal resource as the keyword got mixed up.

Uh oh, just because he hasn't listed everyone (due to space limit in Quests), it doesn't mean he has stolen anything. Same goes if he has forgotten someone either...

I don't think "space limit in quests" is a legit reason not to show the credits though. He can always create another quest for the rest of the credits.

Some even call WarCraft III as DOTA. Most players are just really clueless about modding. :I

When dota was new, people looking for it on computer shops asked owners "Do you have Warcraft III here?", after 2 years, DotA got famous, people were like "DotA is r havez?".

Me and my buddy searched all over our town just to look for a shop that knew DotA.
