I know it's kinda old, but I didn't know about it so I figured a lot of other people don't.

And yea, I think it's Farking bullshit that their Information was released so easy. What really irritates me... I spent $30 on there =[ lol It wasn't even the Pserver that makes the most money.

lolololololol, I love you.

The article also said that Paypal could have contacted Blizzard once they saw the, what I assume, unnaturally large amount in the person's Paypal account. A little bit of interneting and they could have found that the Paypal account owner runs this private server.

Paypal does this sort of thing once they see where the revenue is coming from..

There's a sight called extreme 100.. check it and you'll see hundreds of p servers =]
I find it strange that they went after one that wasn't even the most popular.

You wish, wow is basicly full of 14 y/o e-Gangstaz. "Wow is so much fun" - I'd rather play with Nintendo or atari64

The payout was calculated based on a range of evidence. The profits came from evidence of over $3 million in Reeves’ PayPal account. The $85.4 million was based on there being a community on Scapegaming of some 427,000 which was then multiplied by $200 to represent each act of circumvention.


Damn I should sue someone and just start making up numbers, too.

As if the greedy shits at Blizzard need more money.

Why do ppl say wow has crappy graphics. They are very smooth and don't penetrate often. They just aren't shiny. As you run in wow and move, the textures meld in nicely and smooth around you and I like it. They don't pop in and out randomly when you move.

I don't get the obsession with WoW. I have never tried it before, but from what I have seen and heard from friends, it looks like another RPG. The one thing I REALLY hate about it is how it is capable of running people's lives. I hate games that require large amounts of time and other things to enjoy it. I am sure someone will come back to me and say that it's fun. No doubt it is. But I want to play the game and enjoy it when I want. I don't want to feel like I have to get on the game, do X amount of work for Y amount of time to achieve something. That is probably why I am more into FPS now since I can just jump right into it. I had my RPG phase... that was Silkroad. I quitted for the same exact reason as stated above. I just don't like the feeling of being addicted to a game to have fun. IMO it shouldn't have to be like that.

Also, the graphics aren't great. My opinion. Take it or leave it.

lul? Takes a month to cap. At cap, log on a few nights a week for a few hours to raid, if you choose PVE, or spend an hour or so to get some good arenas in, if you choose PVP.

WoW has a ton of stuff to spend time on, you don't have to spend that time at all. Raiding or pvp is not a time sink. Achievements, quests, gold, rep, etc... those are.

I'm sure that the reason he woudn't pay for WoW is a lack of education :roll: I understand protecting a game you like, but don't throw in random insult that are totally irrelevant.

One thing I don't understand is people crying at WoW's graphics. They arn't even that bad. I love the graphic style. The "Graphic Style" itself is gonna make the game look good for several years.

Nope, it was about how much Aion and SRO suck, and that people from those games (that probably haven't even played WoW) are saying it sucks. :sohappy:

WoW's cartoony look is a way to filter out the dumbf*cks who prefer graphics over gameplay.
