I fucking love seeing ads instead of the end battle, and never having any sort of interaction with the streamer. And to the inevitable response, I also fucking love compromising quality so people like Deezer can jerk off over their e-infamy. | ||

A week long ban for constantly harassing players is apparently tyranny, while threatening the lives of children is just freedom of expression or something? | ||

Do you really think the community would be outraged if Blizzard banned all of deezers accounts. Also do you think Blizzard would care about profit? He already paid for all the accounts they got their money, let them ban him imo. | ||

its much better if they put there time into fixing things which a) are actually useful to 99% of the community b) have a reliable method of in client detection i feel bad for people who are harassed by Deezer, CombatEZ, and there friends, but really, the amount of shit they talk in game is probably bannable anyway. it would be much better if the results disagree was fixed, or maphacks, or drop hacks. i hear that the cheat community for this game is huge and not that hard to find, so i feel that should be blizzards priority | ||

WAAAA PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY DONT LIKE DEEZER PLEASE BAN HIM BLIZZARD EVEN THOUGH HE HASNT DONE WRONG Actually he manipulates the ladder system in order to get the same opponent repeatedly, not to mention harassing people and using multiple accounts to get past the fact that his first was ignored. You'd think that would be enough, but I guess not. Seems like there's no reason not to using sniping to trade wins or whatever. I'm sure there's some method the ladder wizards could cook up to use this method. | ||

If someone wants to take advantage of that fact then it's perfectly legal. Blizzard would have no legal standing to ban people that stream cheat or stream snipe. The only way Blizzard could legally stop stream cheating would be to disallow streaming of their product, which is stupid since streaming is essentially free advertising for Blizzard. I agree that it's legal, as I stated above by saying they have no current policy against it. What I said is that they should make it an explicit banable offense. Even without doing so, Blizzard's ToS states that they are allowed to ban an account for any reason. They don't need a "legal standing". | ||

(although the reasons for the other people are wrong, as those ones the intent is to lower their mmr, but it's still _leaving games_, which apparently is against blizzard's rules). | ||

Would it really hurt to allow players to be able to block up to 5 players on the ladder so you never meet them again? | ||

My super easy way to prevent stream sniping: After playing against someone, have it so that you can't get matched against that player for 30 minutes or so. | ||

Stream sniping for one or a couple game(s): Ok Stream sniping over and over until the pro player is forced to stop streaming: Not ok? I personally would be willing to draw that distinction. Maybe Blizzard will to. | ||

Would it really hurt to allow players to be able to block up to 5 players on the ladder so you never meet them again? That is a really great idea. Or at least petition Blizzard to block a specific account if they harass them while streaming. | ||
