Over the last year, The blizzard issued frequent rounds of account bans for cheating in Diablo III, and it've just issued another. While may not mention each round of account bans when they occur, The blizzard have and will continue to monitor Diablo III for exploitative behavior and take action as needed in order to help preserve the integrity of the game. As a reminder, it do not permit the use of hacks, bots, or other third-party software in conjunction with Diablo III. While many of the programs intended for use with the game are actually cheat programs and automation programs ("bots") that exploit Diablo III's mechanics and provide players with an unfair advantage,"third-party software" also refers to any file or program that attempts to: Obtain information about Diablo III that's not normally available to the player Transmit or modify the Diablo III game files Provide access to features or abilities beyond what is allowed by the game's design Change how Diablo III interacts with Battle.net As The blizzard official’ve noted before, using this type of software not only undermines the spirit of the game, but can result in a permanent ban -- and no Nephalem wants to be remembered by their dishonorable deeds within Sanctuary. Not only that, but third-party programs can cause cheap runescape accounts nasty technical problems, game-related bugs, and stability and performance issues with Battle.net . . . all of which can greatly impact your gaming experience as well as the gaming experience of others. This is why it's important for us to make sure that players battle the forces of the Burning Hells on their merits, with an unaltered game client. One of player who own a Diablo3 account and enjoy making Diablo 3 gold for sale said in the community:All I ask is for Blizzard to get rid of the random friend requests, I counted 33 friend requests the other day and it was all bots, on that note why not just IP ban each one of the accounts botting? even if they do it from their local starbucks or public library, ban the IP of the whole place from ever connecting to battle.net its harder to just IP ban someone via their computer but if they log on from some public internet café, you could easily ban the whole stores access to the bnet service. Seems loads easier than trying to ban thousands of random accounts. This seems that it would solve the majority of the problems and than the few that make it through the banning process will have a bullseye on their backs because they wouldn't have an army to hide behind while botting instantly setting off warden flags to engage and ban that person. Plain and simple I think blizzard could do a bit more to help make the game more legit, we know its not a money problem, not with over 15million people paying for wow each month and the thousands buying gold off RMAH, lets face it they have enough money to put more work into all of their games making them as strict on botting as wow is, and still have money to pay their employees without a cut in any department. I honestly think blizzard is getting a piece of the pie from the bots selling 1billion gold for 21USD when their gold is 38USD per billion. its obviously setting a higher standard making people go after the cheaper third party sites. hence is why I think they're not doing all that they could do to make the game better. On the other hand I could just be wrong, but in my opinion no business takes a massive 18USD loss over a competitor, especially one that's free to play not without taking immediate action being that the games livelihood and only source of real money to the company is being stolen. Er go take legal action and actually start getting these people in trouble with the law, because all in all botting and selling gold etc.. Is no different than piracy In the grand scheme of things. IDK but that's my brainstorm on the topic of botting and bans.
