These videos that you linked simply don't apply to DotA2, because there is a mute function, so that if someone is being mean to you, you just mute them. Not just that, but if enough people report someone for communication abuse, they are muted completely. Considering that and considering the videos you posted (including the titles you chose, especially "I believe Dota 2 community might find this message useful[...]") gives the impression that you're an outsider to the community and preaching to them, because if you can end all the harassment and toxicity that could occur in DotA 2 by pressing one button and clicking, what are you trying to accomplish with this message?
