ive encountered sevral russians so far. and the only people to ever attack me were english speakers. and the only village to ever sound agressive were chinese.
my neighbours are russian, you know who you are, and we share a lot of information about the region with each other. like high quality resource locations.

That being said most of my neighbors are Russian and they are only friendly.

There's only one Russian I ever had any problems with.

Neither point can really be proven or disproved.
Personally I like to believe that even though stereotypes are hugely exaggerated, they tend to hold some form of truth.

I just think it's silly that a lot of people would play on the internet.
Where you know the communication language of choice for international communication has been English for quite a while.
Anybody that doesn't make an effort in communication that both parties can understand, i'd not give the time of day either. There's just no excuse for that.
Trying and not being good at it, is a completely different matter though.

I would think a dozen of times about cutting down somebody that I can understand, even if I mistrust them slightly. (mostly just letting them be on good faith, and benefit of the doubt)
Somebody that doesn't seem willing to communicate will make me twitchy and cut the thinking process to a fifth of my normal intent.

If you tell them you're from the united states or nearby, they try to kill you.
Not russia = United states

This is confirmed. Any time you speak English in DOTA, you get called an "amerikos"
