Indeed.

 

[TheFelorc]

well...i guess i should make a new warcraft III Bnet account just in case...

 

[Kwah]

Why?

 

[Sabertooth]

Because his bnet name is obvious ch0senfktard as well?

 

[TheFelorc]

Yep it is...i had warcraft III for 2 years now and i just got starcraft a few days ago lol...

Edit: I just went back to starcraft and logged in with ch0senfktard. I guess im somehow unbanned? i can join games. I wonder what happened.

 

[Ash]

Maybe it's just an IP ban, or something.

Were you spamming the game?

 

[Dr Super Good]

Due to how bot prone SC and D2 are, they often IP ban you for no apparent reason (especially D2). For example you could just be sitting in a channel speaking normally and you get IP banned in D2. SC probably works using a simlar battlenet engine as far as IP banning and so if you do anything spontanious or causes excess network traffic (like joining games too fast or saying 2 big messages quickly), they probably IP ban you.

WC3 seems more tolerant and will only IP ban you for constant traffic like changing chat channels, spamming in chat channels and joining games too many times.

 

[StasMaN]

so people actually still play starcraft ?

 

[Moontraveler]

Yes... And people still play Warcraft 1.

 

[Hero_Lief]

Rarer to see people play Warcraft 1 though. Starcraft? Too classic. Billions play it. Probably exaggeration. You know what I mean.

 

[punwisp]

almost as much as wc3

 

[StasMaN]

Wow , I thought nobody plays it anymore ;D

 

[Hero_Lief]

Yes well you're wrong. Tell it to my two accounts. Hero_Lief@Azeroth [wc3 east server] and Hero_Lief@USEast [starcraft east server]

 

[boomwolf]

In a word-PAWNED.


Besides, nobody give and IP ban anymore because people realized that not only IPs change, but someone can get the banned IP in complete occasion. and then he is screwed. and it gives game companies a very bad name when stuff like that happen. and they might even get sewed. (they banned me from a part of the game I paid for, claiming I have done X, even though I never even once entered that section before.)

 

[Draelren]

StarCraft is still very popular. We play it at my work all the time, me vs like 3 of our other employee's... haha

 

[StasMaN]

Draelren , omfg btw are there any custom maps ? for example AoS or something ;D

 

[Hero_Lief]

Well of course there are customs, it's where RPs were started. However no, StarCraft doesn't have the right triggers to do AoS and it most likely never will. StarCraft 2 maybe, but not SC.

 

[Moontraveler]

I thought Aeon of Strife started on Starcraft...

 

[Ham Ham]

lol, of course people still play Sc1!!! It is an immortal classic, like Doom 95.

 

[Draelren]

AoS started on StarCraft yes, it's a great game - people still play it all over the world.

 

[Hero_Lief]

What I meant was, the AoS on Starcraft doesn't have what we have today on WarCraft 3. If you are talking about like DoTA, that was inspired by AoS, but it isn't on Starcraft.
