IceFrog Leaves Dota-Allstars.com! WTF??!!

WHAT!!?? That is the first thing appears in my mind when i read IceFrog's latest post. If you haven't know, on his latest post, IceFrog decided to leaves Dota-Allstars.com due the result of some differences. It appears he doesn't agree with Pendragon_ (Dota-Allstars.com founder) decision about Dota-Allstars.com, which is currently under remake. Or maybe, there's something to do with League of Legends which Pendragon_ now working on . (Note: this is just my personal opinions)

Anyway below is the quote from his blog:

As a result of some differences, I am no longer affiliated with the dota-allstars.com website. I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone over there the best of luck in the future.

I still plan on continuing DotA development for a long time, a couple years at the very least. The next update, 6.60, is nearing the end of its design and testing phase. The translation phase will also be starting shortly. There is still a little bit more work to do on fixing some specific content, but it's finally approaching completion. I will post another update here in the near future.

As of today, I am starting a new community site for DotA. I think it is more valuable to the players though if I focus most of my time on developing and improving the game, so I'm here to reach out and ask for help on this. I believe that with some organization, the community has some very talented people that can help build a site to serve their interests and needs. Help can come in many different forms: programming, design, technical support, content contributions, etc. My goal is to have a format where everyone that wants to help can contribute in a productive way. If you are interested in being involved, please send me an email at IceFrog@gmail.com


So he decide to make new website for Dota-Allstars. Ok, now i become confused. Let me search what's really going on from the forums. Stay tuned! In the mean time feel free to tell your opinion about this important matter. This event can change the whole fate of Dota-Allstars development.. (and Dota-Allstars.com too)

Update: Check this thread for Pendragon_ confirmation about IceFrog statement.
