The situation is under control, everyone. I'm afraid they were victims of moderation. I must admit, banning them was fun.

You may now return to your regularly scheduled program.

Neth, since you're awake now, any comments on the incident?


I don't think there is much to say really. Clean-up got a little dirty, but we got things taken care of and are working on finding ways to make these sorts of things less likely to happen for forum posters. There were a lot of those getting reposted very quickly yesterday, so it was about finding a source and cutting it off. We seem to have waves of these on and off we deal with as they come. Some are actual keyloggers and some are session mimics. From what I know the ones yesterday were the mimics, but they still make the forums messy.

Yes, I appreciated the irony of my signature yesterday, but it was still a good day. ;)

Q u o t e:
I know it's unkind to smile on someone else's misfortune, but really ... perhaps this was a sobering realization that the customers' problems are actually legitimate concerns, and not just eternally annoying background noise? Perhaps Blizzard will see that they need to be less dismissive of the issues suffered by the player base, and more proactive? Just a thought. When the mighty are laid low the peasants first jeer and then offer their hands and all that.


Your assumption is that we don't take these things seriously, and I assure you, we do every single time. It's just finding a way to do it that is the most beneficial for the most people and at the same time, keeps people from abusing the system.
