Nah the posting is real Mark Chandler just lost his temper and had to edit the comment. This is the unedited comment.

It's true I just got off the phone with Bill Gates he said new patch on Wednesday is banning all bots and next ladder there will be no bots with anti bot software he just designed himself.

Just had a seance with Steve Jobs, he told me that when cheaters install the next D2 patch their identities will be stolen by South Koreans.

i heard that when u install new patch and try run new reset, your accounts will be lost and so will ur computer, due to too much bullshit from diablo 2 spam bots

Get the fuck out of here and jump off a fucking building while you're at it you depressed piece of shit. Misery loves company - the SlashDiablo user's golden rule.

SlashDiablo community slogan: we work hard at smashing the pieces of a game who's community is fragile and sparse! Go us!

yeah and before that he wrote this

sucks he edited it and regret not screenshotting it but he i clearly remember said something about being the only person left in charge of d2 servers and that hes a server engineer not a bug fixer

tl;dr

there isnt going to be a d2 patch

Forgive him he's from KY

Looks like he's basically saying blizz...or at least d2..is not his primary work focus - "doing this in my spare time". Like basically I think he works on d2 for side cash? I could be wrong tho. Just how I interpreted it.

There is a lot of spam bots around, but you can make ignore list that helps a lot so you dont see spams. In YouTube have instructions to make one.
More bigger problem with bots are those who host diabaal runs are too greedy, they dont let leechers to have chance get any loot. Also thise bot hosts advertises their diabaal runs and welcomes leechers. Its just annoying.

Here's the most important focus, botters in general are good, makes competition in the market place, keeps prices some what stable. If you have no bots you have no stable market place, no leveling services and I can promise you the game will be dead with in 2 years.

You think a jah rune is expensive 2 weeks into reset? Wait for there to be Hardley any competition that lowers prices. "But what about legit players?" That's cool and all I understand it hurts legit players when it comes to mfing, but again legit players won't have much if any market place to buy and sell if they are starting out with 100fg. People bitch about getting free level from cbaals because they can't pick up gear? Wait till they take out all bots and all manual cbaals are 20fg a head for only 1 hr and no pick ups are included.

"Spambots suck", that they do and I wish they could go to hell, but if you could only shut down one with out shutting down personal bots that woould be great, but they can't because 10 out of 100 players bitch about bots in general.
