Do you honestly think that blizzard would take the time to take down sites just to kill the diablo franchise which would make them TONS of money? They see that after YEARS... this site is still up and running, just like the others. Cmon now, think about it.. if blizz wanted, they couldve shut down every D3 site.. THEN made their own, but they did a smart thing, kept us fans TOGETHER, because we all inspire each other to stay hopeful through our friendships / blogs / etc. etc.
Its GONNA happen.
Dude, you know whats gonna happen to this site after like a month?? or two? when you type in diablofans.com it will direct you to the blizzard.com site and thats it, and plus diablo3.com was given away for free... and blizz has alot of money, it's very easy for them to do this shit. So many time has passed,, I've waited but everytime a hype goes on ppl get disappointed, but there is a small consulation in the end.

No, when you type in diablo3.com it will redirect you to Blizzard's site. Examine things more closely next time please And it's not because Blizzard has a lot of money that they were able to get the site for free- it's because 1) they own the copyrights to the Diablo franchise and 2) it was freely given. And of course there will be narrow-minded, ignorant people who don't think through announcements like this and realize the long-term impact. They've been buying up Diablo sites for a little while now- they would have no reason to if the franchise was dead.

No, diablofans.com is going to remain just like it is as you see it, it's not going to redirect to Blizzard. I already spoke with them about the domain name before it was registered and they were cool with it.

You guys just dont get what im saying. I also want Diablo 3, I played d1 and d2 long ago, its an old school game and fun. But look at what is happening, all these small count downs to something and it just get carried away little by little. And why do you think they're buying the d3 sites for??
blizzard has waited for a long time to aquire the diablo3.com website addy. they have been picking up other foreign sites for years but have let this one run for a long time. considering how secretive blizz has been in the past with releasing games my guess is that they are well advanced to be acquiring the diablo3.com web domain. why give the world a hint that something is coming until the last minute.

Of course I don't get what you're saying- in this post of yours that I've just quoted it starts out pessimistically and ends like you're going to agree with me. And not only that, you quoted me for no reason. Nothing you wrote in that post applied to the quote.

uh... re-read your quote then mine, as you can see there is a question in the end. Dont bs me, you're not cool enough. And pls try and answer the question.

Wow, another one. Do you realize what you typed in your post? You asked the question that I answered in my response to your first one. I said:
They've been buying up Diablo sites for a little while now- they would have no reason to if the franchise was dead.
I'm not bs you, you're doing that by acting like a retard to every intelligent argument I throw at you. I did answer the question- before you asked it.
come on magistrate, you were always the sceptic on the old forums, be like that here as well
That post just didn't make sense to me- it was like it was trying to pick between to ideas, but never really got that far. Sorry if I disappointed you in any way

How the hell you answered the question??? I asked why they're doing it for??? whats going to be the out come of it. How is this leading to D3?
Because it means THE GOD DAMNED FRANCHISE ISN'T DEAD AND THAT THEY'RE WORKING ON IT! My god, kids these days aren't taught how to analyze things. I said that it meant that franchise isn't dead, the rest you could have easily thought through.
i just want to ask you magistrate, are you happy with what has happened? are you hyped or are you down?
do you think a lot of gaming websites will link here tomorrow? is this the ZOMG umaro had?
I'm very happy about it all, because of what it means in the long term. This site layout isn't bad, either

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 i never would have thought it was coming even within a month that our old site would be handed over to blizz, i feel special cause i was an "oldie" on diablo3.com aw yes old memories... DIABLO3 IS COMING!!
o btw i hope we chagne the background color back to the orangish tan color the old site had. or at least one easier to tell whats going on.. i liked the old site looks...
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 appreciate this announcement for what it is. Blizzard will do something with it eventually, I hope.
Onward to WWI. In the meantime, I'm still playing D2 and hoping for a patch to increase my enjoyment factor.
One thing you learn in the service is to "hurry up and wait" One get's used to it quickly.
Yeah, I hope they make the font size a little bigger for the new layout, but other than that I like the new one- it's more diablo-esque.

Patience comes with age, as well.
