Meet up at Channel Lurkerlounge?

[TheKingofKewl]

Ok I'll try to be direct. It's been about a week after the ladder reset and patch 1.12. Spambots are back.
I play on USWest, been waiting for MEAT to make his appearance. I have a barbarian, going to start other characters soon to. So I'll look for you.




Reports of a maphack working for this version is already out. Some people are already collecting gear for their runbots. Not -if- they return, but -when- they return. And sadly I think these folks might be correct.

I was reading some older threads, and at one time there was a Channel Lurkerlounge. If Bolty's cool with it, I'd like to see it return. (During the live release of 1.10, I did see one person there in USWest. He and I had a blast playing. It might have been the author of the Druid Ranger actually, but I couldn't be sure.)

I've already experienced public games in b.net without maphack, for about a week after the reset. My bet is it won't last, and might have already ended at the time of this writing. (Would be nice if maphack and botting is somehow put on ice permanently by bliz, but if ifs and buts were candies and nuts and so on.)

I will not be able to park a char in Channel Lurkerlounge 24/7. I am not responsible for it. I completely understand if Bolty is not cool with it for any reason.

All I'm going to do is just go\create Channel Lurkerlounge whenever I'm online for D2. The main idea is to have a meeting place for any lurkers who wants to play a pick up game of D2, obviously free of maphackery and botting foolishness.

Thanks for reading.
