It sounds like this may not be true (but may also be true). I assume we'll know for sure later today. | ||

In all seriousness, im not attached or affiliated to ICCup staff at this moment. But my last information from not long ago is that the ownership has no plans to shut the server down. And ICCup has been notorious in the past for being resistent to outside attempts to be shut down. If we see an influx of players coming from other 3rd party servers, such as Brain andf FISH, things might be set in motion. But ICCup would need a big upgrade in infrastructure and staff before it would be a good place to play again IMO. | ||

We've had folks come in here and claim to be affiliated with x or y in the past without showing any proof whatsoever. All we have here is an OP with several sentences making such a claim. Not really hard to see why a link is needed (yes, I'm aware he said website is broken or w/e). Also, this thread would be closed without a link so I'd rather it didn't get to that point because this is important news. | ||

Free server (private server) is illegal in Korea. It is not Blizzard's choice. In Korea, there are also people who were imprisoned by operating a free server (private server). If you do not know big problems and laws in Korean society, this discussion is meaningless. Three government agencies in Korea cooperated to close the brain server. (Game Rating and Administration Committee, Korea Communications Commission, Cyber Police Agency) This is an effort to solve problems in Korean society. | ||

I personally would have loaded up the game and checked it out for myself if I was that eager for clarification. | ||

Fish and brain have been notorious for having people who illegally downloaded 1.16.1 along with various hacks to play on it for years. Some argue it might have helped the game survive, but I think ultimately now that SC:R is out the free servers should be closed down | ||
