Blizzard Bans Over 320,000 Battle.net Accounts

Blizzard has swung its mighty banhammer to the tune of 320,000 banned accounts. The offenders were apparently up to no good in Diablo II and Warcraft III. It’s also interesting to note that a lot of the bans are a result of the community policing itself. Here’s a quote from Blizzard’s forum post:

Many account closures come as the direct result of tips emailed to our hacks team by legitimate Battle.net users. If you come across a hack, find a site responsible for distributing hacks, or have a replay of a newly available hack, please report this to our hacks team at hacks@blizzard.com or through our Hacks Report Form at http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?locale=en_US&tag=hacksform

It’s great that the community helps sort itself out…but I have to wonder if some players are viewed are narcs.

  1. Ha! cyber-snitches! Funny i was listening to a local radio show and they were talking about why people on the street don't want to snitch and why so many crimes/murders go unsolved? they were blaming hip hop artists because they promote don't snitch in their music and they also blamed crooked cops. I know there are some crooked cops but not all of them can be crooked. It's funny to me to see and hear both ends of the spectrum on snitching.
