I don't get it :(. Please take a look at the screenshot: http ://i.imgur.com/9LSKR.jpg (I had to cheat, since I can't post URLs, please remove the space :))

How come the 2-handed gives me more damage than dual wielding the first two? It looks like the 1-handed axe should alone be better.

It took a day once for me when purchasing a ring. I am not sure why but it was something that had only happened once. Every other time it has taken just an hour or two to process. The longest wait seems to be when selling gold or big ticket items.

I'm very angry at this situation myself, mates. There was duping in Diablo 2 aswell, but we had Ladder resets and what not. Without ladder resets here, things might go out of hand fast. It's sad to see how so many people try to ruin the fun for the rest of us. If this duping continues it will crash the in-game economy in no time... they won't dupe only items. You saw for yourself what happened with the gem prices.

I did see what happened to the gem prices and I see what they are at now. From the looks of things, Blizzard quietly fixed the issues considering that the price for gems is back to normal. I will wait and see what Blizzard does as I suspect; they too will fix this issue as quietly as they did the gem crisis.

So after 2 days of silence and 4 threads of noise, blizzard decided to quietly delete all my 4 threads and banned me from the battle.net forums without any kind of response or explanation to me or to the community.

Now do you guys think there's a problem? lol.

Well played Blizzard, I was so certain it would come to this.

Yes, there is a problem... It's called a squeaky wheel...

Updates to bnet thread

- Lots more dupes have been added to he list, and more are being found as we go.
- Some accounts we were suspicious of have been banned during server maintenance or they have literally emptied all their gear.
- More barbs who have been affected by duped items are coming forward.

- Most importantly, Still no response from blizzard.

Maybe not the response you were looking for but wouldn't it be the effective way to deal with it? And let's be clear here, many folks here in this thread will not deny that something is going on but the word rampant was used and if you played D2 at any length, you know what rampant duping does to a game like this. What is going on in D3 is far from rampant.

here is a few synonyms for you: unbridled, unchecked, uncontrolled, unhampered, unhindered. Ok?

If it was going unchecked then why the bans? And if in fact the duping is being done by way of roll backs then wouldn't that be a controlled situation? Guess you proved my point for me. Thanks!

Maybe an increase would be good but there should always be a cap of some sort. Maybe 15? 20?

If I was a mod, I too would have banned you. Sorry, but forums are not democratic, they are dictorial and when you step on the mods toes, you get tossed. Your tone in that post is bad and you shhould have attempted a little more tact.

It is amazing to see that Blizzard has not taken an agressive aproach to the duping. Rather than protecting a money maker they have simply laid down and are letting the dupers roll over them. Sad really.

I hate to inform you but you but that isnt even close to 300 mil. In all honesty if I was feeling nice I would give you 2 mil for that. Min Dmg/Int/Vit are very low.

Hi, thx for the offer but sadly, due to other off-hand that is available on the AH for you, you should find yourself a very nice off-hand like this too with just 2mill, that is if you ever find one like this.

Thx for the interest, and hope you can spend your 2mill else where.

btw, any serious offers will be considered. Just leave your Btag.

Look at mine. Bought for 40 mil. But hey good luck getting 300 mil there are suckers out there. What you have is far from BiS.

Nice one!! 2 lvls and Im there also..the journey is long but well worth it.

There will always be 2 types of gamers:

The actual D2 players:
The gamers from that era are no longer 18 or 19 years old, we're more like late 20s even 30s - we know how the world works, we've lived with absolute rubbish games back in the day and we appreciate the up and downsides of D3. We also know that Blizzard generally still provides the best quality and content when compared to any other game developer out there.
I think to this layer of gamers the game is ok. It's not brilliant yet, but it's definitely not something to cry about every day before sleep. 40-50 bucks is not something to cry about either, hell - beer for one night could cost way more than that. D3 is a potentially fantastic platform, give it some time and it will possibly develop into superb game, just like D2 did with LOD release - because lets face it original D2 was pretty damn boring.

The i played D2 gamers:
Yep they are early 20s or even below that, yet somehow despite the simplest calculus they played D2 for many years, even the original... These guys want INSTANT GRATIFICATION. They want to whine and cry and demand things - because lets face it - the modern society rewards whining and crying and demanding - that's the only thing they know and that's the only thing they will ever do.
They are the one and only mistake Blizzard ever made - listening to QQQQqqqQQQqqqQQqqqQQQ. Back in the day Blizzard never did bother with as much 'community management' or even really reading forums. They just released content and it was a simple decision - play it if you like, if you don't - there are many other games to choose from.
Today, because of all these QQs Blizzard actually made a step forward towards community and started working with the community (unlike any other game developer out there), and the only result of them trying to 'satisfy' the 'instant gratification generation' is the incessantly increasing amount of QQ. Because now...the QQers feel empowered! Blizzard did react to them a few times and that was their biggest mistake.

Hence there will always be 2 sides to this argument, and this argument is not based on the game itself, it is rather based on the perception of the world in general and the gap between generations. There will never be any agreement about it or any solution. If 'instant gratification' is not achieved = it's shit. End of story. Screw waiting, screw everything. I paid 40 bucks i want it NOW. While the rest of us are thinking 'wdf have we done to our younger generation? Should've sent them out to work at the age of 16 like we did instead'
