As part of
Blizzard's continuing endeavor to keep a bad element from ruining the
fun in their MMORPG, World of Warcraft, 1,500 accounts were recently
banned permanently on their European servers. Here's the complete
statement on the WoW Europe site:
As part of our continuing effort to keep World of Warcraft free from abuse, we have permanently banned more than 1500 accounts during the last several weeks which were involved in the use of cheats and/or hacks using third-party software or were otherwise violating our Terms of Use. We will continue to take an aggressive stance to ensure that the
gaming environment remains an enjoyable place for our customers by actively pursuing those who would seek to violate the principle of fair-play, as well as breach our Terms of Use and policies in this way.
