Blizzard pretty much isn't willing to ban people anymore.
Last time Blizzard did a mass banwave, maphackers received 3 day suspensions.
"Hack your way to #1 in the world? Well here's a slap on the wrist with an account rollback. Now go think about what you've done!"
If Blizzard bans hackers, then those hackers probably won't buy the expansion packs, which means less money for them. The money is more important than the integrity of the game.
Dude, it's not like everyone hacks... if they ban hackers (or if they do what they are currently doing) there will be more people buying the game (or keep playing it) because the probability of matching up against a hacker will be lower.
Seriously, who wants to play against a hacker? =.=

they will reinforce banns of hackers they did that in wc3 during the transition into frozen throne expasion they also had a reinvested interest when they launched wow.. to ban more hackers to show they * care* pr i know but still i noticed . starcraft 2 has 2expasions planned they will keep banning till atleast after a year of legacy of the void has been released.

EgLdrA also got demoted to bronze.

It was probably a deal of some sort. This guy had to know that people would realize he wasn't for real, he probably just wanted to play with it and show off that he could do it and then turned himself in to Blizzard and told them about the vulnerability. The amount of money he had the ability to save them probably offset the cost of a copy of the game, assuming that is what took place.

lol the hacker bronze league is like hacker hell where they only face each other i'd assume hahahha

As funny as it may be, I'd much prefer the accounts fully banned and completely unusable. In this state they could still play in minor tourneys where a ban list might not be used before being sure all competitors are legitimate.
Additionally, I don't think they should be entitled to play UMS or use their copy of sc2 without purchasing a new one as a bit of a penalty for hacking.

They should get a loss regardless of the match outcome. They should make a new league below bronze and put the hackers there.

They almost certainly ARE banned.
Blizzard have never removed banned accounts. The demotions for bronze would be to remove the accounts from GM league so they don't affect rankings.

It would be hilarious if they could only face other hackers in that league. Ultimate trollage.
|
Sounds like Blizzard might be doing what Capcom did for people who disconnect from matches in MvC3
|
Make a cell, throw them in, call it Copper league and put unique maps with lots of destructible rocks in it. Even on their minerals.
|
I bet they got some kind of counter-hack in that division where if two drop-hackers play each other it will fry their computers.
Hey, it could happen.
|
probably blizzard put them in the same league, change their MMR to a whole new unique level (binding all the hackers MMR together), and then let them drop hack against each other lol
|
gosu troll by blizzard. drop hackers can only play drop hackers =O
|
blizzard often does not delete banned accounts, they are just banned then sit in limbo forever. Those accounts will just disappear with the reset and that will be it.

Hopefully they didn't ban them and only match them against other people in that division. See whose drop hack is the best.
Also, did Blizz erase the losses from other players that got drop hacked?

what happens when drop hackers "play" each other?

They should have named the division Hacker Mu, Lagmaster Alpha, DROPship Omega or some other witty name to say this is a hacker division
Yes please!

When hackers hack each other:
Hacker 1:
"Hi I'm a drop hacker, I'm going to hack you "
Hacker 2, thinking he is smarter and faster, activates his hack before typing:
"ha ha I hacked you first" he says as his game starts to slow
Hacker 1, feeling his game begin to slow responds:
"well, I guess we will see Who has the best hack!"
they both sit there for a minute, watching their games slow to the point of unplayability.
Hacker 2 begins to type, almost simultaneously with hacker 1:
"G........ . . .. . "
Bottom line is, I think what happens is the person with the best computer/bandwidth wins. Or in this case, Loses, because simply taking part in a hack war is for losers.
