Now this is just not fair. Talk about contradicting your own rules. When other people posted this "speculation" of a release date on the forums all those topics were blocked. Why do you have the rite to post this and we do not?
I disagree with what you are saying. I think it's a good thing they posted this - on the main page where a lot of people where see it - because too many people are seeing fake release dates and getting super excited and spreading it around thinking it's a real release date. This post is bringing to attention that a lot of these dates are indeed fake, and people need to watch out for them. Basically telling all those gullible people out there to smarten up and stop being silly.
I guess there is a difference when someone posts a thread saying OMG THIS IS THE RELEASE DATE! vs when someone posts a thread saying it's speculation. Either way, I think the comments in those threads always end up going in the same direction anyway.
As for me, I'm not believing any release date until I hear it from Blizzard. I didn't know when to expect the game originally, and when the beta started in Sept, I had a guess in my head that it would come out in March 2012, based on something that Jay Wilson had said (that the Beta will start 6 months before release). I was actually surprised when they said originally they wanted it out this year and they had to push it back. I had no idea they wanted it to come out so soon. So really, I think it'll come out sooner than I expected, which is nice for me.
Yes, but the thing is I did post a thread called exactly: "Speculation: Potential Diablo 3 Release Date".
http://www.diablofans.com/topic/31092-speculation-potential-diablo-3-release-date/page__p__695023#entry695023
But that got blocked, it had the exact same intention as this thread does and did not for one minute say that the release date was true. So as you can see, I do feel kind of betrayed by the fact that this thread was created stating that the release date was merely "speculation" and that the moderator who blocked my thread said that the rules do not permit "speculation" threads. So, I stick with my case. =)

You cannot state as fact that no other build that does not use pets will not be viable in inferno difficulty, it may prove to be more difficult, but it will still be quite possible. I remember seeing the devs showing of a petless and melee WD in one of their panels at Blizzcon 2011 - Where it was stated that they were in inferno difficulty. If my memory doesn't serve me right, you point is still invalid to the fact that you have not played the game and therefor, have no understanding of how alternate builds will turn out to be in inferno difficulty.
You say this yet, every single reply I have seen that you have made, you have abused someone when they have been trying to refute your argument. I would classify those responses as trolling and flaming.
Also I don't need to read your entire post nor prove a build of my own to refute your opinion, as you have no primary source, nor a complete secondary source to prove your own argument.

I can swear to you now - it will take me 4+ hours to just get through the beta for my first run-through. =)

8. This is a really good idea, I would love a system like this to be implemented. =)
I agree with you for everything except:
- I would like to see a snow area, if their isn't one in the current game.
- More runes would be awesome, along with charms being applied with the talisman. =)

Haha... Everyone running around with machine guns, jumping in their done up cars and having mini game races. What a nightmare.
The final expansion will in a way close the storyline, but hopefully leave it open ended for......... Diablo 4!!!! (in the next 30 years). =)

That may be, but honesty has a greater chance of gaining a positive response than being subtle about responses to questions and/or accusations like these ones. =)
Really, I'm indifferent about how Blizzard approaches there fan-base and market strategies, as long as I get the game I want. =)
Its just I would have more trust and faith in Blizzard rather than question everything new they let out as an instinctive reaction.

Definitely an interesting idea, I wouldn't mind seeing something like this play out, with more details of course. =)
I agree, making the outside environments more random would be a good addition, and yes, quite difficult to do. It would also be good to increase the size of them... only going from what the beta has to offer, I'm not to fond of the size of the outside areas, there not big enough. Though, I'm sure they do get much larger as you get further into the game (at least I would hope so).

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Blizzard wanting to make money. Its just the way they make it.
- Separating Starcraft 2 into 3 different games instead of 1
- Using the excuse of shady 3rd person websites for the RMAH (which btw I am a fan of) instead of plainly saying that they want to generate a consistent income from D3
- Using D3 as a means of making money on WoW and not admitting it.
Like you said, if Blizzard took an honest and clear approach to the way they say these things, there will be a lot less complaining. =)
