oh and by the way, by taking part of this run you are definitely supporting cheaters.
he has said that he knows a method of "forcing the ip by manipulating firewall". which is bullshit, anyone who knows networking can tell you you cannot force the load balancer to give you an exact ip (unless you know of an exploit of the login server/load balancer, but that would require blizzard insider knowledge)
its much more likely he is using a clientless bot to handle all the requests going in an out and to create hundreds of games a minute from hundreds of accounts.
but still, even if he is somehow "forcing the ip", that falls under the category Cheats:
if he is using a script (much more likely) that falls under the category Bots:
