Again, I need to stress the fact...
Diablo 3 isn't part of the Diablo franchise.
You guys are wrong.
Unless, of course, Blizzard has completely bought the trademark and now owns Diablo 3 and all of its assets to control all the domain names, then that means Diablo 3 is coming.
You have to look at it this way.
Blizzard would not go around buying Domain names related to things they havent nor have any intention of creating or created yet. This is like saying Blizzard would buy "www.dolphin.com" just because they want to redirect people to their website.
In short, Blizzard is acquiring all the Diablo 3 domain names because they now own Diablo 3 and everything associated with it. There is only one reason they would own this domain name, and third game name. They waited until the last moment to snatch up www.diablo3.com, because they knew when they did it would basically tell everyone "Hey, Diablo 3 is coming" so they bought up all the smaller domains first in relation to Diablo 3, and then hit the big one, www.diablo3.com itself.
Why did they wait all this time?
1) Its kept fans together.
2) Its the biggest domain for their product. It is diablo3.com itself. They are probably a few months away from actually announcing the product now, because if they weren't, they would've just waited longer to snatch up this domain.
Diablo 3 is coming. There would be NO other reason Blizzard would buy the Diablo3 domains.
I know what you're saying about them buying it is leading to some actual D3 news. But Diablo 3 is a big question in Blizz community and ppl try to get anything out of blizzard, but guess what- nothing comes out. And they're probaably doing this to stop this hoping and not let ppl get carried away with a things that diablo fans really hope will happen, but according to what blizz is doing and their plans- there is no chance for Diablo 3, and they just waant to stop this until there is major dissappointment, and plus link it to Blizz just to make it easier on you.
the site layout just changed the banner, and the color from #303055 to #25400052
We are the real site magistrate, we are the only stones that make it happen. we build the hype up, and we are here. thats why its still happening. we trust in these people and they know it. we are lucky to have them as they are lucky to have us.
I said I like the new layout, I didn't say it was a new site that made me happy. Nothing could replace you guys
Dude you're a moron, how the hell that makes you think the franchise isnt dead. Just think outside of the box now, I think after this long time of no D3 you should try and actually think outside of the box, and not hoping.
Wow, how can you honestly say that? How can you call me a moron when I so plainly laid it all out? for you? I'm not fucking hoping- it's logic you absurdly stupid moron. They would have no reason to buy diablo3.com if they didn't need it.
Blizzard would actually SHY away from buying any domains or doing anything related to Diablo 3 whatsoever AT ALL if they lacked any intention to create a Diablo 3.
You need to learn more about company franchising rights.
You don't buy random domains that have nothing to do with products you own unless you are going to use it.

Ouch, now I am feeling my 42 years of age! To pass the time, I hope to snag a WII so my daughter can kill me at bowling and my son can whup my ass at boxing! Now some D2LOD PVP action and I would have them cold!
I like Tyreal and WWI side by side on Blizzplanet.com. Again, another hint that something might come with another couple months of waiting.

Oh, and a followup...
Thats like saying I have a company called "Blue"
and I have a game called "Blue 1: The Destiny."
And someone out there makes a website called "Blue 2"
Now, my company is never going to make a blue 2, but theres been tons of talk about Blue 2, so, my company is going to go ahead and buy blue 2. So now, my company owns Blue 2, and all the rights, but why?
Because my company is just that stupid, right? I mean, we're not making Blue 2 ever, but we went ahead and secured all the rights. That serves a point, right? It actually makes my fans happier, right? I mean, its not going to overhype anything or blow up any news, right?
WRONG.
Blizzard buying Diablo 3 = Everyone knows Diablo 3 is coming.
Blizzard NOT buying Diablo 3 = After a few years, things start to die, slowly, everyone forgets, and Blizzard never owns the franchise rights for Diablo 3 because they NEVER INTENDNED TO MAKE IT.
So, ONCE AGAIN...
You dont buy crap you arent using!

How the fuck is it logic, get out of lala-wishy-hope land, you little pusseeey. You're in denial. Im trying to open the eyes for you, Ive been on this site 3 years almost and loved diablo since 1999, but diablo 3 is a very small chance. They have startcraft 2 and wow expansion each year to make.... so just sit here and hope my friend, but im done with this shit. Honestly. :cool:

How the fuck am I in denial? I've been playing the Diablo series just as long as you, and I know as well as you do that the chances of it be released or announced soon are so slim- I just said that the franchise isn't DEAD. I'm glad you're done, nothing you've posted so far makes any sense.

Hey,
Did you read ANYTHING I said? Lay the hell off of people, jerk.
Guess what, I've been a fan of Diablo since 97, my father and I were at best buy opening day to get the damn game because of how much we loved Warcraft Orcs and Humans and Warcraft 2.
WE played the shit out of that game and I still play it sometimes, and when Diablo 2 came out, I played it non-stop and mastered it, finally quit after 5 or 6 years but I had a battle.net account full of 80's and 90's. Multiple accounts with mules and everything.
I've played WoW since the day it was released and I love StarCraft.
Blizzard has an employee base of more than 600 people, now, back in the day, when they had a very small team, they were limited.
But they are NO longer limited. They can work on all kinds of stuff at once with how much money they rake in a month from WoW.
I can't believe a dumbass like you exists. Blizzard is going around BUYING all the Diablo 3 domains, Richard Knaak has stated "I'm not writing for a dead series", all the blizzard employees answer "We may revisit that franchise in the future..." really slyly when asked questions about Diablo at blizzcon...
I mean, COME on man. This is the NEWS we've all been waiting for. Do you need a fucking sledge hammer to hit you in the face with Diablo 3 on it to realize THIS is it?

Sure ok, I know the franchise isnt dead. But this site's obviously is about diablo 3. And im saying that all the buying and taking for free sites can be understood in different ways.
they did not buy diablo3.com, they got it for free, as other similar websites, because they own the diablo trade mark.
so owning diablo3.com would be just an addition to having it redirected to diablommo.com or whatever when they wanted to. owning diablo3.com doesnt probe that they will make it.
So they went around collecting all the Diablo 3 websites lately because they own Diablo 3. Why would they OWN Diablo 3? Why would they waste their time collecting all the domain sites? What are they securing it for?
They own Diablo 1 and Diablo 2. Diablo 3 is not included in that, unless they specifically have just now included it and purchased it. And since they have, by owning Diablo 3 rights now to get the domains, what do you think they're doing? Just having fun? Why even bother owning rights to Diablo 3? Would you want to own rights to non-existant things?

all we can do is wait. there have been so many hints that a diablo game is in the works. right now we KNOW that SC2 is in development, we KNOW that WoltK is in the works. what we DONT KNOW is the "Top Secret" project that the diablo teams have been working on. i don't know about you guys but to me this looks like some sort of diablo project since Starcraft and Warcraft are being covered. just my 2 cents.

Respect lost.
Also, as I posted in the other thread:
Sure D3 might be announced on June 29 but this acquisition adds bugger all weight to that. We could well be waiting until 2016 for D3.
