2 points:
1) InGame itself is not community project of fans (although some of the affiliated sites are, to some extent), but a network run by a company that is just as profit orientated as Blizzard (inGame GMBH).
2) diablo.de was used by diablo2.de, a site that has very little information about Diablo 1. I always considered that domain occupation a little abusive. It prevented pages that actually focus on Diablo 1 from using that domain. inGame advertises on diablo2.de, so the hits they got from diablo.de of course meant additional money for them.
