Cheat in Diablo III, Get Banned by Blizzard

diablo III banhammer

Yesterday, Blizzard wrote a post on Battle.net explaining that if you cheat in Diablo III, you’ll get hit with the banhammer. At this point, though, does anyone really need to explain this?

From the post:

“If a Diablo III player is found to be cheating or using hacks, bots, or modifications in any form, then as outlined in the Diablo III end user license agreement, that player can be permanently banned from the game. This means that the player will be permanently unable to log in to Battle.net to play Diablo III with his or her account.”

Amazingly, Blizzard is taking more of a “I’m giving you one last warning” type of approach here instead of making with the bans already. The post says that cheaters will start getting kicked out “in the near future.”

Why wait? Why not start kicking them out right away? Who needs their cheating asses? Has anyone fallen victim to dirty no good jerks in Diablo III? Or ARE you one of these dirty no good jerks? I promise I won’t tell.

    well isn’t this surprising, I thought the whole online only thing was supposed to prevent this…now it’s beginning to seem more and more like they did the whole online only thing for activision’s drm practices and as a money grab for RMAH.
