Mass Banning

Seems as though Blizzard has gotten a loooot of people with the Warden. I would not use a maphack for now, even if it is clean. They are using new anti-hack methods, the same ones they use for WoW now.

Pheer the Warden.

R.I.P. Kaneda

Yep.

Know a guy on HC lvl 73 ladder. Maphacked=Ezed.

What/Who is the warden? You mean Blizz?

lol ouch that sucks. Good thing i only used easymap for like a week. Im thinking netter knew it was detectable and wanted to fuck people over that way. But i dunno. Check this out kinda funny. http://diablo.nl.nu/

Warden is blizzard's anti-hack thingy. They used it in WoW first, and now they use it on Diablo 2 as well. Apparently it gives them the ability check the game's memory for certain injected DLLs, which they can update the list of server side, and it checks every 2-4 seconds.

You can hear taps playing softly in the distance.

170+high account gone.

Diablo II Accounts Closed
Nebu on August 11, 2005
We have just closed more than 36,000 accounts for cheating on Battle.net. More than 28,000 CD keys tied to these accounts have been disabled from Realm play on Battle.net for one month, and more than 3,000 CD keys have been permanently disabled from Realm play due to repeat offenses. Please see the Battle.net FAQ for details on our anti-cheating procedure. As a reminder, the Battle.net news window that Diablo II players see after logging in has had a long-running warning against the use of hacks, clearly indicating that if we detect that cheating is taking place, the offending accounts may be closed without notice and the CD keys tied to these accounts may likewise be disabled without notice. Today’s account closures reflect our zero-tolerance policy against cheating, as well as our effort to prepare the Realms for the new ladder season. We appreciate the support of the thousands of legitimate Diablo II players in helping us keep Battle.net a secure and fun place to play Blizzard games.

Got banned as well but:

The account I used with bot was removed but the the cd key I used with bot didnt get banned at all. It's intact.

Instead the key I used to play with got disabled for a month. What makes this all odd is thats I didnt use any bots or maphacks on the play key. :/

I used the play key to test the easymap mh 2.0 with the bot account. So I figure this much. My bot key didnt get banned but bot account got removed you all can calculate 1+1. Easymap made my play key getting disabled.

What a nice program.

It would have happened w/ any other maphack you could have used. Which is none atm, but say if Mousepad had made a new one quickly the same thing would have happened.
