My theory is battle.net tech guys have no idea on how to check if someone is using a 3rd party program. So, they just deleted mass accounts ( even if they were using hacks or not ) to inturn make people think they know if someone is using a hacking program. I think they just don't care about the consumers anymore cause they are not getting any more money from this game and I guess they want people to but their new games. I think they are cold hearted bastards and deserve to die. And by the way I still use maphack and I'm not banned.

They didn't ban CD Keys they only banned accounts so there would be no reason to have to buy a new Diablo 2 CD.

Most forums believe that.

I'm talking about upcoming games, if someone was stuck on Diablo2 then they won't want the new game get it ?

Edit * Senesia did u just quote yourself ?

It is their loss if they don't play the new game, really.

Games are what most people to when they have free time. I don't actually buy the game to support Blizzard, I just want the entertainment.

Edit:

Yes, I just did quote myself. Didn't want to type everything out again.

Just because someone is hooked on D2 doesn't mean they wont buy new blizzard games. That's the stupidest argument I've ever heard.

Well, you come up with a better money making skem to use in Diablo 2 to make money im all ears and in fact shut the hell up I dont care what u think.

If you don't care what I think, don't read what I say.

It isn't my fault you're trying to find some motive for blizzards bans which makes no sense.

Well, your " It doesn't matter its just a game " crap doesn't make any sense. Time is money. If someone wanted they're time thrown away they wouldn't work for something hard just to have it deleted.

If someone didn't want their time thrown away, they shouldn't be playing the stupid game.

=P

Anyway, don't try to heat this up.

People should be playing this game in their free time.

" It doesn't matter its just a game " would make sense, because no matter how much time you've spent, wasted on a game, it will still be a game. "Doesn't matter" means it shouldn't affect you that much.

OMFG, can you people get the idea that blizzard gives a flying fuck about you out of your heads. I'm trying to say if I wanted to waste my time I would go wack it or something not work hard for good items only to have them deleted with no proof of false actions and no freaking legitamite reason it was fucking done !

Omfg, we don't give a flying fuck about Blizzard, why they should give a flying fuck about us? Time is money, people spend their time on the game and don't make back the money are stupid. That prove your are stupid. (only true to badboy, b/c he start the Time is money statement)

Read what I've said. O.O

Don't take a game too seriously.

So you'd rather want a realm wipe or something? Or take down battle.net for d2 until 1.10? Why do Blizzard need legitimate reason? Did the law say they can't delete things on their servers?

P.S. This thread will be closed if I see more personal insults and flames...

its day 3 now since my account was deleated and since i played the stupid game and i feel dam good!!!Screw bizzard and battle net!!!!!!

I know what you all are feeling ,but fuck it lets just go on with our lifes.allot better things to do in life.

Time to drink beer and get fucked up.

I bet Blizzard just picked a handful of accounts and banned them, assuming they used maphack. That's not necessarily a bad thing, because most of the experienced players use maphack. About them telling you illegal packets were being sent from your computer to diablo 2, that's a load of bullshit. Blizz probably just had to make something up so they didn't look bad. But we can't do anything about it. I'm glad to see that some of you are getting on with your lives.

Frankly, nobody with thousands (or even hundreds) of posts in a forum has a right to tell someone to "get on with their life" (not really aimed at you NonGayMan, but to most people posting in this thread).

This game is an addiction. People work hard (well, they spend countless hours) making their characters the best they can. Regardless of whether you've lost interest in the game or not, if you played it legitimately and had your hard work poured down the drain, you cannot deny that you would be pissed. Unfortunately, none of you can say you wouldn't be pissed because about 99.9% of those posting in this forum cheat, which (in THIS game) requires the mindframe of "I'm not wasting all of my time for a friggin game..."

No, I don't cheat back when I actually play the game. I started to use bot several months after I quit.

I did gain all my items in a legitimate way. I used to do 1-2 hours of Meph run everyday, I have played a lot of builds, I've soloed every class into hell cow without trading and joining public games.

My legit accounts got deleted, by legit I mean, the accounts I made 2 years ago. No duped, hacked, anything at all in that. As I've mentioned for a few times, I didn't play that account for months, and it got deleted.

Was I pissed? Probably for 5-10 seconds. Then I realize, who cares, I don't play that account anymore. It's not only me who got banned for no reason.

If the game became that much of an addiction, I really think one should stop playing. One should not let a game get into his/her way in real life.

Final someone who understands what im trying to say, you work hard legitamitely for for something, hours upon hours of endlessness, and then one day blizzard desides to delete thousands of accounts just cause they can, and you get fucked thats what im trying to say, not saying that I got deleted or anything I'm just saying its a waste of a persons time and if they weren't playing this game they could be making money by working or something ( thats where the fucking time is money comes in ! god damnit ) and though they have lost everything they are just supposed to go on like nothing happened ? I say no, I say we start a ban on blizzard games for this injustice and then maybe they will get the picture that the consumer is always right.
