Exactly, the game is not even in alpha (one of the early steps) so everything to change.
It has happens in lots of Blizzard games and right now they change lots of stuff in the WotLK expansion for WoW and even removed units from Starcraft 2.

That's true, it seems all games made by Blizzard are mostly played by a lot of immature kids (and below 12 years). Bnet is full of immature kids, and so is WoW.
Makes you wonder

I bet those were duped. Who the heck would give away the rarest items(esp. zod) unless they're quitting?
And like I asked before, do you still play william?

No, they were not duped. They were not quitting, they were just very good friends. They also knew how to trade properly and get the stuff. And if they were duped, I am sure that they made sure that they were before giving them to me. They were fine and they worked awesome for my character
And to answer your question, I haven't logged in for a while, but I can start playing again if you are playing. Do you play on US WEST or EAST?

Pretty much every high rune on the realms was dupped. I know one that wasn't (my self found Lo) but I guess that's it.
They are dupped and cubed into higher rune, which perms them and makes them near-legit (they won't poof unless full ruststorm, which haven't been performed for 2 years and most likely never be).
Hope D3 won't be THAT bad when it comes to duping as d2.

Of course, I didn't say there are no intelligent people playing on Bnet.
What I was saying is that, for some reason, the Blizzard games have the most immature kids. I don't know why Blizzard make their games "attractive" for immature kids, for me it would be a shame

I disagree with you again
Blizzard don't make their games attractive for immature kids. I guess you could say the same for Halo 3, if you want. All these kinds of games have immature kids. There are always going to be immature kids playing no matter how much you try to stop it

Uhm not true.... most players that play WoW is (it was a suprise for me really) 25-35 year olds etc.
Less then 10% of WoWs population are immature kids -.-
Sure, of course you see some in the lower levels but seriously, but as soon as you get level 30-40 all those immature kids disappear.
I have never played on battle.net (because I downloaded from Pirate Bay) so I dont know about that but I can say to you that I have not met many immature kids in WoW during my years there (okey one year, soon two).
You are very wrong. Why would the worlds most successful and largest game company have 99% kids?
(btw its Activison-Blizzard now, they merged).
Also oveer 70% of Starcrafts huge amounts of plsyers (much larger then WoWs) are koreans and I doubt their children play much computer games.
It also seems like you think all games must have blood and gore because otherwise they are "child games".
I always found the cartoonish graphics very fitting for the Blizzard games (Warcraft and Starcraft, Diablo 3 is pretty cartoonish to unlike the previous two).
And there is another reason Blizzard games dont have amazing graphics to: Because all computers should be able to run their games not only those with super new modern computers.

Look, I read somewhere in a gaming magazine that a SIX-YEAR-OLD kid, who doesn't even know how to read, played WoW perfectly and achieved level 50 IIRC. The reviewers were actually supporting WoW in this case, as "the interface is so easy to handle that even someone who can't read can play the game". But this is a shame for me, really, and this is why Blizzard games "attract" immature kids.
How many games can be played "expertly" by 6-year olds, hmm?
And about the cartoonish stuff, well I'll say only that in Warcraft games it clearly could be much better without any additional "computer-resource-cost"

This is so untrue. There are plenty of tricks you can use to make it more realistic without having to add polygons or bigger textures or anything like that. At least I know since I am involved with this stuff. Let's just say that cartoonish has nothing to do with graphics but rather with "art style", which is intentionally cartoonish withouta affecting performance at all.

WoW is easy to learn but hard to master which is good.
I seriously doubt that the story is completly true. A six year old? And is it not good that the interface is easy?
The "easy to learn, hard to master" is one of the many things that led to WoWs huge success.
When I started to play WoW I was not that good in english but I could still play it (even though I was a complete noob who did everything wrong). Whats bad about a easy interface?
-----TheDeath-----
Well, apparently Blizzard doesnt use that engine.
Because they had said various times when people on the forums ask of a 100% WoW graphic update (graphics are updated all the time) that it is not good because:
1. Otherwise it would not be Warcraft.
2. All computers should be able to handle it.
3. The game was released in 2004 and had the first screenshots were in 2003.

Wait a second, who said "graphics update" means non-cartoonish? Just look at Team Fortress 2
also I thought Blizzard programmed their engine, so they should be able to change it and optimize it, if they are "da bomb GREATEST company evah!"
EDIT: So let me put this differently. Even Half-life 1 is more realistic than WoW even though it has worse graphics. Cartoonish has nothing to do with that, but more with the "style"
