However, Cheating in single player is a different matter entirely. What gives Blizzard the right to order us how to play the game? OUR game. Which we purchased with OUR money, for OUR entertainment. Since their inception, gamers have found alternate ways of playing videogames, and using a cheat or trainer is just an extension of that. What makes videogames so different to any other piece of our property?
Amen. I thought, when you bought something, it became your property to do with what you like. Essentially, by negating a person's ability to play SP mode (I can understand the right to ban people from MP mode as you use their servers etc.) they break the law on several counts; intrusion of privacy, and essentially theft as they prevent you from playing the game that you bought.
@DABhand -- So far every argument you have made on Blizzard's behalf has been discredited. You come here spouting off things hoping that no one will notice that you actually have no idea what you are talking about. Now your argument is that Blizzard is in the right because of what they MIGHT do down the road. Just like Blizzard banning people because they used cheats in SP and MIGHT play a MP game one day. It's a good thing that police don't arrest people for things they MIGHT do one day.
If you want to jump on the Blizzard blind bandwagon, then be my guest, just don't come here spreading false information trying to sway others.
Chris come down from that Donald Trump-esque world in your head and actually read what I had said.
Show me where I am pro Blizzard? I gave my view on what was said in that article, and I also said ultimately they do have the right.
Also notice I said I think it was bad of them to ban people this way.
Yes please do read, before you spout out things hoping no-one will notice.
Just because I pointed out that it is their software and they can do what they like, does not mean I am going to run around the streets with a Blizzard T-shirt and megaphone declaring they are great. Really Chris your little domination of the paid trainer market has really gone to your head that you don't realise who you alienate as you wander on your road.
Look at how you have acted, when I was helping you and was a voice for your concerns everything was nicey nicey, now there is no need I am treated like trash.
Not only just me, I have seen the way you respond to people... Paying customers, that is bad really bad. Its as if you took their money now you can be rude to them.
And to top it all off, you and your mods have been letting the warez talk go mental more often, maybe because you realise that a high percentage of your customers are heavy warez users so you don't want to frighten potentials off.
Either way, as said I responded to the article and gave my views, I didn't post as a "Yay Blizzard" fanboi.. Jesus honestly.
As for your "Now your argument is that Blizzard is in the right because of what they MIGHT do down the road.".. LOL NOOOOOOOOO, that is NOT what I said.. Re-read again. Paranoia lad I think you have tonnes of it.
