I think your a little paranoid and should just cool your jets. You aren't getting banned for what your saying, your getting banned because your spamming the tread saying the same thing over and over. We get the point, you want LAN. But constantly posting over and over (to a bunch of people who have no control over the matter) is not only annoying but also pointless waste of your time. | ||

If you want to discuss this come to #teamliquid on quakenet. Frankly, my dear, nobody here gives a damn about how many kids you have. | ||

No. I'm "spamming" because some dumbfucks who also happen to be moderators here and supposedly community advocates, are acting as if "Bnet 2.0 features" not yet revealed will compensate for the lack of LAN option. Sorry, connecting to a centralized server requiring you to go online does not compensate for a lack of LAN option. If the mods here had the common sense to even acknowledge that, I may or may not give as much of a shit, but no, we're fed some stupid shit about how Bnet 2.0 will make it all better when anyone that has the slightest bit of networking knowledge realizes it's not the case. I'm not bragging either, just stating that banning me is a waste of time. See this is what I'm talking about. There isn't some conspiracy here where the TL staff are trying to make you drink the Bnet 2.0 Kool-aid. They aren't "feeding" you anything, they are just posting their opinions. Yeah but instead of just saying that banning you is a waste of time, you felt the need to mention all the "great" things you are on the internet. Anyways I'm done talking with you and further derailing this thread, since you seem to be a very unreasonable person. | ||

If it doesn't it really is a very minor point that really just the people who don't wanna buy the game are fussing over. It won't affect anything, but piracy really. Blizzard's the one company I won't do that with =x So basically if i wana play SC with my friend over LAN at my place i have to get SC2, all the expansions (which i will) and another copy of everything and be connected... no thanks, here where i live buying 6 games is way too much for a student to handle - may it even be an epic game like SC... not including LAN at all (i still hope it wont happen) is cheap and low coming from Blizz | ||

"hell its about time...to rape all the fans, take their money three times, and cut out any potential ESPORTS competition". they learned from iccup and garena (which was ripped off from a chinese server called VS). how do you cut out the competition? cut out LAN. simple. Your hyperbole is ridiculous and so out or proportion to what's going on. No LAN is fine, I hope they have some system in place that replaces it. Real invasive DRM exists on games like Spore. Be glad you're not getting that and be grateful, not a dumb teenage twat with too much time on his hands spreading the "revolutionary word about righteous piracy" on internet forums. | ||

Could you be any stupider? On June 30 2009 01:12 omninmo wrote: NO LAN MEANS YOU HAVE TO BUY TO PLAY. PERIOD. no buy, no cd key, no battlenet account, no sc2 4 u LOL exactly what I mean here. The horror of actually paying instead of pirating. Truly, Blizzard is the evil empire itself, they hate FREEDOM! | ||

 Still waiting anxiously for beta+release news, instead of just "current build balance issues". But I'll take what I can get ^^ | ||

Where I'm from we don't buy 3 games for cheap ass friends. | ||

LOL if thats true (and it proabably is) Blizz is one sad sad company... i love them for the epic games they make, but a company that makes millions every month from WoW is capable of making SC2 and all of its expansions completely free without financial losses | ||

If it was EA, they would have milked the Korean scene ages ago for every penny. If anything, Blizzard has been a lot better than the other large gaming companies. | ||

Last I checked "companies" were in the business of making money. Also yes you do lose money giving away free games, because they cost money to make. Agreed. But I can't decide if it's stupid because Blizzard feels the need to have the Games for Windows tag, or it's stupid because disabling the windows key disqualifies you from the Games for Windows tag. | ||

You should probably take an economics class if you think so.  (Look up the term "overhead" in relation to business ) | ||
