And the house-cleaning I'm perfectly alright with! I just logged into my accounts last night to make sure my newest paladin wasn't expired since I haven't played in quite awhile and really didn't hear that much complaining about it, so hopefully the cheaters have been discouraged. What really jerks my cord is why did Blizzard waste their time doing this mass-banning instead of fixing potentially game-ending bugs in the game? What kind of statement is Blizzard trying to make by this mass-banning? "No more cheating, but we won't fix the bugs in the game either?" I'm sorry, but it's ridiculous, and while I applaud the effort Blizzard has made to better the game, I shun them for their inability to fix these game-ending bugs (especially for us hardcore players). I guess it gets me so mad because Blizzard let those hackers rule the roost for such a long time, that the rest of us learned to adapt and avoid their TPPK's and what-not, to the point where now all I really care about is for Blizzard to fix some of the more serious bugs in the game so I can play again without fear of looing my character to an Extra Fast Fire Enchanted <monster name here> in Nightmare. Bleh, I'm ranting.
