Urgh. People like jumping to conclusions way too much. This is like the 3rd time for Diablo 3 there has been internet outrage for reasons that turned out to be completely wrong.
"We’ve extensively tested for false positive situations, including replicating system setups for those who have posted claiming they were banned unfairly. We’ve not found any situations that could produce a false positive, have found that the circumstances for which they were banned were clear and accurate, and we are extremely confident in our findings.
Playing the game on Linux, although not officially supported, will not get you banned – cheating will."

- derpmeister 14y agoOh lookie, another Blizzard apologist. Wine triggers the VMM detection script in the warden, it IS a false positive.
- UnoriginalGuy 14y agoI'm willing to accept that if you have more than an anecdote to support your position?
- chris_wot 14y agoHe's provided as much proof as Blizzard.
- pyre 14y ago1. Blizzard has their name / track record to stand behind. 2. derpmeister has a month-old HN account, which is backed up by/linked to nothing else. 3. (for example) If Linus Torvalds had posted what derpmeister had, I would be more inclined to take it at face value. 4. derpmeister's post automatically takes itself into 'troll' territory by starting off with the 'Blizzard apologist' comments. This makes the anecdote seem less believable without anything else to back it up.
- chris_wot 14y agoNothing you said negates my comment.
- anotherthrow 14y agoIt all suggests derpmeister should be taken as a less reliable source than Blizzard, which does count against your comment. Sure, it's not a deductive proof that Blizzard is right and derpmeister is wrong, but it would be unreasonable to require such a thing.
- chris_wot 14y agoAgreed. Probably was a worthless comment.
- flyinRyan 14y agoSo you're assuming that's malicious? Why would Blizzard care what OS you use so long as you pay?
