Hey
There's a rumor that Blizzard is now illegally checking our system to see if we are using 3rd party software for DIABLO 3 because they have not been sued for this yet, and they think they can get away with it.

What is your opinion on this matter

And oh yeah

ALL my bots.. BANNED!
FUCK YOU BLIZZARD FUCKYOU

I have same opinion. I am sure they scan for processes and files and sending all this data like a error report.
 
actually they were sued by this by dude that got banned on WoW (he was lawyer and he didn't find in ToS anything about it, so he sued them and won, my botting friend told me this), but I think that there's in ToS or EULA that you AGREE to check your system while playing their games, they included this after that incident

And back to tinfoil hats.

Blizz would NEVER do this. Imagen the lawsuits!
 
they can get away with it very well

i am surprised they were not doing that before
 
You guys are wrong. They used to scan our PC and it was in the ToS. But a court ruling/order changed that. It had something to do with inferring with your personal information/life or something

Edit: BTW this was all the way back, when WOWGlider/MMOGlider was the shit

It is against the chart of rights and liberties. No EULA is above the chart. They do not have any right to look to our processes.
 
4/5 Bots banned. (second time - got 3 banned 1 month ago)
before that bans I never got banned on any game.
made more than 1000? profit with d3 since release.

-none of them was running while the ban arived
-mainaccount, connected to paypal was also banned (wasnt botting for 3 weeks)
-RU version, running 24/7 since month wasnt banned... (what the heck?!=)

Does anybody think there is a chance to get 'em back? (no mimimi, but I think, I'll quit at this point, cause it aint that much profitable atm)


Cheers,

You gave them permission by accepting the EULA. You accepted the EULA on your own decision.
 
I know there is a grey area with this. They are allowed to look at some things, and not at others, but what they can monitor is very limited, as is the information they can record from it. At one time they were scanning people's entire systems (before they were sued).

If they tried to push this farther and have been looking in places they should not look, expect the hammer to come down pretty quickly.

Not true. That is like Microsoft requiring you to allow them to record all of the data on your computer, and all of your files, in exchange for using windows.

If a EULA were binding like that, then the South Park humancentipad would be possible. If a law prohibits them from doing something, then they are not free of the law just because you sign an agreement.

Honestly, that part of the EULA is there for two reasons that I can see. Some places where Blizzard games are played there may not be a law against that. If that is the case, then if they had a reason to search your processes, they could do it if you were playing from there. The other is to use as a coverall for other things they are doing that COULD be somewhat covered by that, but is in a grey enough area to be free of the law if you agree.

Yeah that is what I meant. They actually can look to their part of our memory, the part the game uses.

It has been clarified a couple years ago already that the EULA is not above the law and they do not have all-access VIP admission if we click yes.
 
hb number guy has it right imo
also. if you sign a waiver that says you can kill me, it still does not make it legal
 
if it was a software detection a lot more people would be banned right now. as it is, Bam has been running my account for the last 3 weeks, and its still ok.

As of now, this looks like a server side detection of a behaviour pattern. Both the EU and US Official Diablo 3 forums are full of angry banned players. In our experience botters take their bans and move on without grumbling. We think perhaps the server side algorithm hit a lot of innocents as well.

i agree with hawker, we already know they been doing things like this in wow, for sometime now, so it seems like they just stepped up whatever server side patter detection they where doing.

to everyone that was banned im sorry for your loss, i know it sucks.
 
I would not put it past blizzard to scan processes on a flagged account maybe based on the behavior detection. Maybe that is why they "can not release the details" of you getting banned.
 
if its being done by the client we can see it. there's no evidence to support that the D3 client is scanning for demonbuddy.
