2500 banned for cheating...

Quote:
As part of our continuing commitment to keep World of Warcraft free from abuse, we have permanently banned more than 2500 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.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter. Should you have reason to believe that you have evidence of or information regarding the use of cheats or hacks, please feel free to send us an email at WoWAccountReviewEU@blizzard.com for us to investigate or submit a GM ticket in-game

Considering the sheer number of active accounts Blizzard reports, 2500 seems like a tiny number, at least they're banning people though, it makes me all warm and, erm, fuzzy.

Wonder how many Warden misses though.

compared to the ammount of servers thats running here in europe i'm surprised there wasent more of them. theres almost half a million subscribers in europe (i think i read somwhere). so 2500 cheaters is VERY little.

probably a bunch that blizzard havent spotted yet to.

Im glad you are part of this community.

I know someone on my server who got his account banned for similar offences so hopefully yours should come through soon

Not sure where 2500 came from but WoW has just announced over the last 1-2 months it has banned 18,000 accounts... which to me is a lot!

Quote:
In keeping with Blizzard's aggressive stance against cheating in World of Warcraft, we have permanently closed more than 18,000 accounts over the past three months for participating in activities that violate the game's Terms of Use.

A majority of these accounts were found to be using third-party programs to farm gold and items. Such actions can severely impact the economy of a realm and the overall game enjoyment for all players.

We will continue to actively monitor all World of Warcraft realms in order to protect the service and its players from the negative effects of cheating. Please note that selling World of Warcraft content, such as gold, items, and characters, can result in the permanent removal of the involved accounts from World of Warcraft.

A portion of the account closures announced today came as the result of tips reported to our GMs in game or emailed to hacks@blizzard.com by legitimate World of Warcraft players. If you suspect that a World of Warcraft character is using an illegal third-party program to farm gold or items, or is otherwise violating our Terms of Use, please report the suspected infraction via one of the means listed above. All reports will be investigated, and those that prove false will not result in corrective action.

Thank you for your continued support, and good luck with your adventures in Azeroth!

-Blizzard Entertainment

What I meant was at least they're actively punishing people for cheating in the game rather than just sitting on their payments every month.
