Warcraft III and Diablo II Accounts Closed, CD Keys Banned
Tuesday, April 1, 2003 <
http://www.battle.net/images-new/pixel.gif> UPDATE: THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOLS? JOKE
Numerous additional accounts and CD keys were tied to the use of a hack or cheat program while playing Warcraft III or Diablo II on Battle.net. In keeping with our aggressive stance against hacks and cheats, we have permanently closed over 12,000 Warcraft III accounts and over 131,000 Diablo II accounts. We have also banned over 7,000 CD keys from ladder play for one month and banned over 1,000 Warcraft III CD keys from ladder play permanently. Please note that repeat offenders risk having their CD keys disabled, which results in permanent removal from Battle.net for their copies of Warcraft III or Diablo II.
We continue to monitor the Warcraft III and Diablo II realms for malicious players. We regret having to employ these extreme measures; however, certain unscrupulous players have impaired the game play of the Warcraft III and Diablo II communities as a whole, and severe action continues to be warranted and required. We would also like to reassure everyone that a false report filed by one player against another will not result in the actions described above.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter. If you would like to report additional instances of hacking or cheating, please contact us at
hacks@blizzard.com. Thank you again for your continued support.

Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne Beta Accounts Closed, Beta CD Keys Banned
Wednesday, April 16, 2003 <
http://www.battle.net/images-new/pixel.gif> We have identified a small number of accounts and CD keys with which a hack or cheat program has been used while playing the beta of Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne on Battle.net. In keeping with our aggressive stance against hacks and cheats, the following actions have been taken:
* The identified beta accounts have been permanently closed.
* The beta CD keys and Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos CD keys associated with these accounts have been permanently banned from the beta realms (if two players shared a beta CD key and one cheated, both players were effectively banned).
* Any additional CD keys that had been used to access Battle.net along with the banned keys mentioned above have also been banned from the beta realms. For instance, if the beta was installed with two different copies of Reign of Chaos, the beta CD key and the CD keys for BOTH copies of Reign of Chaos have been banned.
Running the Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne beta test allows us to fine-tune the game experience; cheating during the test can severely hinder our efforts. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter. If you would like to report additional instances of hacking or cheating, please contact us at
hacks@blizzard.com. Thank you again for your continued support.
