The guy deffinantly has enough money to get a lawyer..
I think he made something like 2.8 million off the damn thing.
Blizzard isn't doing anything wrong, they have created a game and with that game came rules and guidelines right..?
Well in the guidelines i'm pretty sure somewhere in there it says something about having your character controlled by third party, the glider is easily put into the catagory of third party..
Doing the same thing you would be doing except not doing it at all.
Blizzard are just protecting themselves and the people who actually want to play the game the way they intended it to be played.
All Blizzard is going to be doing is upsetting those little guys that sit at home and can't be bothered to train up their own account so they rather buy a glider or pay someone over in china to train their account for them.
But if Blizzard is going to sue the guy for creating a glider then in all fairness they should be sueing those chinese guys that sit around in an office all day training YOUR account.
What an awesome career path.. Lmfao.
In a way it's actually letting some people have their lives back but still enjoy the game, although being a form of cheating and having an unfair advantage to others, it would certainly beat sitting around 21 hours a day 6 days a week just trying to get that last level..
