MMO-Champion
This is what happens when Blizzard constantly allows hackers to get away with this stuff and never takes any legal action over it.
Then again who knows, maybe they're hacking their own game for publicity.

Posted on owncore. Seems like it's the same people who hacked the game around a month ago or so.

what legal action are they gonna take? if they were smarter than the hackers they'd hire the hackers to take better preventative measures with this stuff. Originally Posted by JimPaladin

Hahahaaaaaaaaa, oooooh. Really loving this. They're genius, just genius.
As for 'legal action', I strongly doubt Blizzard will be able to take any. People who are capable of this most likely know their way around proxies. Or rather, they have to, or they might be in for some deep shit (I'm imagining that this isn't the worst these people have done in terms of hacking.)Last edited by Dassen; 2012-10-07 at 07:40 PM.

That happens rarely. The guy who hacked Yahoo is in prison for life. Originally Posted by fizzbob

I don't get why people are so butthurt over this. It's not like they actually broke anything. It's not like anyone lost anything but the time of a corpserun or two. Originally Posted by JimPaladin

They put them in jail. Forget about the legends with the hackers hired by those they got fucked by them. The vast majority of them went to prison. Originally Posted by fizzbob

It's not that they can sue for damages and actually get them. Most likely the "hacker" is some zit filled virgin in some basement, a very sad person neglected by his parents

I think it's hilarious, but Blizzard still needs to do something about it. Originally Posted by Dassen

Complete with video.
I wouldn't be surprised if this was, in some way, tied to the "extended" down-time.Libertarianism:
The radical notion that other people are not your property.
MSNBC is to Democrats what Fox News is to Republicans. There is NO un-bias news network. Only a select few un-bias shows.

Servers aren't down, auth servers are fucked up. Maintenance was already going to happen before this. Originally Posted by JimPaladin

Yup, everyone died on Tarren Mill EU earlier today. Blizzard hates us all for being in Org, they're forcing us to Panda City. /joke.
