Dii.net has a Mercenary IAS calculator

[Ruvanal]

The point is (and that is also what Heri told me after he had contacted the diabloii.net guys): Noone can prove that they have actually not made their own tests. That data can theoretically be found out by anyone - and nobody has a copyright for them.

Ah... but what would their response be on the stat information copied from Spirea's site. They would need to explain how they exactly copied the errors that are present in that calculator that also show up in their tables. If they had done the work them selves, they should not have consistenly had the same errors in their tables.

Oh and by the way, Worgus had posted in a thread the he would be putting up the tables that he made.

I put together some IAS tables for Mercs. They will be up online in the next day or so. I'll make an announcement and post the link as soon as Elly approves them.

So from this it appears that he is the author of the tables.

Also as a side note, there was a brief thread over the weekend on their statistics forum that went something like this:

post1: forumadmin (one of the other forums): wanted to know the act 3 merc cast rates, since these were not in the recently posted tables.
post2: member: started to post a link to the information. Then made a deletion note in place of the link and stated that they did not want to flaunt the formum rules.
post3: forumadmin: started telling the member that they should have just copied the tables from the other site and posted them in the thread intead of not giving the link.
post4: Ruvanal: I noted to the admin that the first poster was problably going to be giving a link to a calculator (probably Heri's) and not a table. Also the this would probably be not giving proper credit to whoever did the orginal work and would be the wrong thing to be doing. I also pointed out that diabloii.net was also using information ripped from Spireas calcualtor, including the exact errors in the caclulator.
<the forumadmin then deletes the test from post1 and totaly deletes post3 so that it is not even apparent that it is there>
post5: forumadmin: says that the orginal post should have been deleted intead of replied to. Hopes that there is no misinterpetation of what is posted then.
post6: forumadmin: Repeats a request as was in orginally post1.
post7: Ruvanal: I point out that my previous post and members post do not make sense (our qouted material is not deleted with posts1 and 3) and it does make us look like we are not very clear in our heads. I pointed out that an appology for asking something that he should not been asking would be better and that this could have then served as an example of what not to be having other do for information references.
<at this point the entire thread is deleted from the forums>
followed by a PM from the forumadmin: ...deleted the thread because it looked ugly and I don't want to give a bad impression for people in the forum. (plus some other stuff relating to the orginal question).

To me it seems to be an attitude to just take whatever they want, however they can get it.
