Linux users getting banned from WoW? |
Ó
This does not bode well for Linux gamers, and it's a weird coincidence that we hear about this a few days after announcing Wine on the site. It seems that Linux-using World of Warcraft players are getting banned left and right.
Current speculation among the members of the WoW community, Linux and non-Linux alike, is an attempt to ban users of third party software who use said software to cheat the game. Unfortunately, users of Cedega, a Windows programs portability app for Linux, has been picked up as a cheating application by Blizzard, leading to the closing of many accounts of Linux users.
Discussion has been ongoing in the forum of TransGaming, Cedega's developer. Currently, Transgaming is working with Blizzard's engineers to resolve the problem and hopefully get the unjustly banned accounts back into a state of gaming readiness. Till then, however, all we can do is wait for TransGaming and Blizzard to do something about it.

we could grow up and stop playing kids games.
What are you doing here then, Scott?
Scott, should'nt you be working on losing your virginity? I mean, what are you now, 40? In other news, Blizzard admits they could care less about Linux users.

This is the most ignorant headline or just somebody trying to start controversy without doing any research AT ALL. Blizzard has cleared this up in there forums. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=47009071&pageNo=3&sid=1#40 Try doing some research before posting a headline like that.
