World of Warcraft: More Permabans
It seems that the banhammer is now in full force over at Blizzard. Currently, Sodah (the guild master on the high end PVP guild Im MVP on Tichondrius) as well as Cdew have been added to the permaban list as a result of account sharing.

Diablo 3: Patch 1.7 Thoughts
Supposedly, patch 1.7 was going to be a pretty big patch, especially after the tiny 1.6 patch that was slipped in and forgotten a while back. The main aspects introduced were the so-called PVP parts, new account bound crafting recipes, gem upgrades, changes to XP for monster power and reflect damage nerfs. There were other…

Diablo 3: Conspiracy Thoughts
I was chatting with a friend the other night regarding Diablo 3 and had been watching quite a few Diablo 3 videos on Youtube recently. The experience made me think a bit about the evolution of Diablo 3 compared with the start. While I do not possess any direct insiders to Activision/Blizzard (at one time…
