What is Communication Score? And how to increase it?

[Kyoryo]

Hello, I'm relatively new here.
Last time I've played dota was 2017 and if I remembered correctly, this game doesn't have any Communication Score.
Now in 2023 I'm back and I got below 6000 points and cant event chat or communicate. I've been doing couple of matches on past days, and my point doesn't even get higher.
Why am I low at the first place? In the past I've only played with my friends via discord and never chat. And most Importantly how do I make it higher?
It's so annoying if I can't chat if I'm playing solo.
Since this topic cannot upload a screenshot, here's my current scores: https://imgur.com/a/4j2reaZ

Use the positive phrases of the chat wheel and ping only in a responsible manner. But yes, that are the challenges of the solo queue.

redditors love good boy point metrics, they have to be constantly reassured by some outside collective that what they are doing is the right thing.

its a ♥♥♥♥ way of monitoring peoples behavior, its only psychological, people still grief, still dont buy wards.

its just a made up number with thresholds for consequences, dont over think it and dont talk to animals.

Unfortunately, the advice people are giving is detached from reality. People are mass reporting because they can communicate as a team over discord, while you will be in a situation where you will have an inability to communicate as a solo player. The system is being exploited actively. Valve did not think this change through.

very true. most people are on discord or other form of communication. But if you're in for therapy, get a load of the comment above this from a doctorate psychologist
