If you disagree just move on to something else, you don't have to posit your 2 cents of dribble. And on topic: This idea can work and will work if enough people participate in it. The idea itself costs Blizzard zero dollars. It's about five minutes of coding total time investment. Therefore the likely-hood of its success is real. If my request was to them cost them a million dollars then obviously it would be a different story. This can happen. It takes 2 minutes, it's worth a shot to all the die hard bw fans. | ||

That's server consolidation right there. | ||

I've tried, bots spamming 3 servers for weeks plus front page news on the site. It's a lot easier said than done. | ||

All you do is delete the other options on the server select screen, then rename the server that has the most load capacity to "USA+Euro" (my idea doesn't include consolidating asia with non-asian servers). Simple as that, then pull the physical plug on the servers and sell them on ebay and make a profit. Iccup doesn't interest me because I play BGH. The BGH games on iccup are intensely noob. | ||

Also why would someone give Blizzard a bad score on that survey anyways, not getting the answer u were looking for is not a great excuse. I can see u r very angry and whatnot and u seem a lil confused about how or what to do, just relax man, have a drink and GL. | ||

If it doesn't pertain to you, don't respond. If you don't like the idea, please explain why you don't like it. Other than that I don't see any reason why anyone who plays on battle.net ever shouldn't take out 2 minutes of their life to send in an email asking for this request. And whoever said it will cost them time and money... lol @ that. | ||

I can see u r very angry and whatnot and u seem a lil confused about how or what to do, just relax man, have a drink and GL. The % of people on TL who care vs those who don't is irrelevant. The point is that this is a starcraft site, thus there are bound to be people that this applies to. "Someone tell him" How about if you don't care then don't waste your time. How does he seem angry and confused? I think his intentions were very clear, and not very complicated. I suggest you re read the idea behind this, I found it quite easy to understand to be honest. Why would he give him a bad score? Probably because he got an automated response saying how they will read his request, followed by another email asking them for his feedback on how they handled his request.... Is that deserving of a good score to you? | ||

BGH community is little weird when it comes to that question. I guess it's the same reason why most of them stayed on BW and didn't switch to SC2. Because they're used to it and it provides them some kind of comfort? And to all others who are replying to this thread just to get their post count up - don't. | ||

You must understand you can't just tell everyone to 'go to iccup'. it doesn't work that way. (unlike the low money community.) combining east/west/euro is a great idea. imo just combine them all. not that many ppl on bnet these days. | ||

I also do programming for web apps. What you'd have to do is first find where that is in that ancient code, hope they didn't have anything else that revolved around that code as a stupid fix, and then pray it works. Dealing with old code just makes for problems. | ||
