Banned From WoW For WINE & Programmable Keyboard

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the they-hates-them-the-emulation dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Player gets banned for playing World of Warcraft under WINE and using a Logitech Gaming keyboard. "I am an experienced network engineer for an ISP and I am often running World of Warcraft on Linux through the use of WINE..."" Although the e-mails exchanged are unclear my guess is that the programmable keyboard was more the problem then WINE. Not that you'd ever know that given that Blizzard communicates with their users seemingly almost exclusively with form letters.

    haha...24 years old and playing 3000 hours of warcraft. geez, get a life. go get a girl. getting banned could be the best thing that ever happened to him. now he can actually go out on a saturday night instead of sitting in front of a computer all night. What 24 year old would rather play warcraft than go to a bar or out with some friends? shrug your shoulders and move onto something else. it's not the end of the world
