So I had a nice post here, then I screwed up copy pasta.

TL;DR: Should we have a place to have people with extra keys they don't want to give them away so we can grow our numbers.

I was kicking around the idea after seeing Purge and a few other high level players do this, of offering coaching to our newer players.* I know Valve is offering a Mentor program eventually but for the time being this could help. The idea I had was we could have a spot on the forums for mentors/students to sign up, and we could have like time-slots where mentors would be available to help people who are new for learning a hero, item builds, positioning, etc. I've noticed that quite a few people who are showing up are like completely new to the game so having some observed coaching could help. Just an idea though, thoughts?


Think you accidentally this whole post...

i would, but as soon as a key is used it should be removed. otherwise there would be a whole lot of extra pm'ing and pointless posts

I don't think we should run a thread on this if it is visible to the public and Google bots.

We could make a "Members Only" forum? Or like a hidden forum you get access too when you've hit XXX number of posts or something lol idk.

Yeah a members-only forum would probably work.

Instead of a trading thread though, we could ask valve for some keys that will be given out as we broadcast the last hitting tournament.

I think Gaben would be amenable to sending us a few keys when he learns about what we're trying to do here. I'll send him an email later today.
