It has nothing to do with what it sounds like after it's been relayed through 2 different people who might be lying, it's just standard procedure when accusations and threats come out for players / representatives that the organization be first concerned about their safety, then the validity of the claims. Same thing works in law, when a person recieves allogations of a crime and threats of violence the law has to protect him first before trial and prosecution. Well that makes sense when you look at it from the legal point of view. I was viewing it from an economic point of view, as in the why bother spending time (read: money) on something when that may not happen, when you could be spending your time on finding out if it should happen.

Point taken. Because Blizzard's top interest is expanding the esports via public relation and relevance in the mainstream, security at these events is absolutely more important than what small economical loss they would take to take the time to investigate it fully, the plane ticket / entrance fee /cost of investigation to Blizzard is paltry where as its image as a company that hosts safe, systematic, and competitive events is much more important. | ||

Blizzard is a company and they care about money just like every other company. If they realize they are losing money by paying people who actually hurt their game like this maybe they will care a little bit more. | ||

As off topic as my analogy may seem and how unrelated it seems im trying to show you what your saying doesnt make sense. Your logic is that of an enabler, that its ok for people to do bad things because thats just who they are. I understood completely but the fact someone could say something like that is quite astonishing to me. I don't think you understand, this isn't about right and wrong. This is about accepting what is. "Bad" or "Evil" people exist. We need to accept that. That doesn't mean we enable them when we accept they exist, in fact it means the opposite since by accepting they exist we deal with them in an appropriate manner (ie lock them up, rehabilitate them, fine them, whatever it all depends on the crime). I think the problem here is the word accept. I shouldn't have used it. I am not saying that we should accept criminals or hackers as one would accept someone into a club, I am saying we should realize they exist and accept their existence, thus allowing us to deal with them. If Blizzard isn't doing anything about Zack, then they are denying the existence of him hacking, so they won't deal with him. Or worse, they could accept the existence of him hacking and still not be dealing with him, but they would never admit that, it would ruin their integrity.

But allowing someone to come like this hurts E-sports, just as the post right below yours states. Though I will admit this draws a lot of attention to this event. I will certainly watch to see how this guy does... | ||

Usually hackers have a better understanding of network protocols than the casual internet goer too so even as a tactic it's not very effective. | ||

It's so easy to find them, you type sc2 maphack in google and it shows you all the sites of the hackers. 1: Not all those sites operate in the United States. 2: It costs a lot of money to file lawsuits against so many sites. 3: Successfully shutting down a site simply ensures a new site will be up in days. | ||

It is truly disappointing that Blizzard does not check on their invited players more than that, as map hackers seems to be the flavor of the month. | ||

The alternative is also terrible too, giving corporations the ability to completely censor types of material is really sketchy, prosecuting the individuals responsible is much more effective than just restricting the relevance or availibility. | ||
