Comment Re:Blizzard says WRONG! (Score 2) 518

I've been playing for about a month under Wine without my account being banned. That said, one has to wonder just how "extensively" their tests were done on Linux. Try running it on any 64-bit kernel, and you can't even get past authenticating unless you're using either a patched version of Wine, or the "setarch i386 -3" workaround. The Warden routine gets stuck in an infinite loop without the patch. More details on this Wine ticket: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30849

Despite their community manager's assertion, there most certainly are gaps in their testing.

I am wondering what exactly they are calling cheating here, since the code says they "will not plagiarize, copy work or get outside help."

Here's a good example of outside help:

I once saw a RAC posting from someone who wanted all of his job interview pre-screen questions answered for him. It was no surprise, when I had a look at his project history, that he had cheated his way through his degree as well.
