Oh dear god, I hope your job doesn't involve too much thinking cause you'd soon be without butter on the bread. READ what it says: "THE HATE ...". If I was referring to myself don't you think I would've wrote: "My hate" for the game is very valid. Writing "the hate" and "a person" implies someone else. My god, learn to communicate at least half decently.
Besides if you actually read my posts you'd see that I have some complaints about the game but still think it is a mediocre game (as much as I hate to admit it) compared to the development time and hype surrounding it before launch.
But you wrote it in direct response to me when I said that the hate is indeed extremely over exaggerated, didn't you? In that context it could have easily been read as your own view, because you don't actually need to write 'my hate' to make it appear so.
I admit I haven't read your other posts before that one, and given the circumstances I can't see how I could have interpreted your post in this thread any differently. Because I also have a lot of issues with Diablo 3, but I haven't been seen writing how brainwashed people are for loving the game as it is right now.
Either way, you are wrong. Hate is not valid if no valid reasons are presented for it's existence. A person has a right to feel that way about basically anything, sure, but that alone doesn't make it valid to the rest of the people around him.
If I say to the whole world that I simply loathe dandelions and bees, and present no logical, sane arguments to support my claim, while running around the streets with yellow flowers in my hair and honey dripping from my lips for days on end, people would just call me batshit crazy and move along with their lives.
The same goes for D3. Yes, we all waited a long time for it, and it arrived pretty unfinished. Yes, the itemization is semi-broken, lack of PvP is very much felt, and the cheap prices on the AH hurt the overall feel of accomplishment when you finally find a great item for yourself. No one denies that. The flaws are very much present and obvious, and will hopefully be taken care of in the near future.
But if you spend dozens or hundreds of hours on a game in it's first month from release (which vast majority of the people have already), how can you call it bad/mediocre and expect not to be exposed to ridicule?
You've already played it longer than most of all those amazing games that you've experienced in your life, ever. That alone makes it great, and proves that both gameplay and replayability, the two most important aspects in gaming, are spot on.
Diablo 3 is a freaking dungeon crawler. I don't know what else people expected from it. There is just so much that you can do with the formula without breaking it, and they clearly improved upon the franchise from the previous installments. It certainly is not a vast, open world MMO, and no, it is not made to be played 24/7 without getting bored. Practically no game in history can claim that kind of immersion.
But if Diablo 3 can indeed be classified as just mediocre, than I don't know what kinds of mind-blowing games you've been playing all these years.

I swear, a banwave happens and everyone jumps on a new program to claim it's a false positive. I've been using yolomouse since version 0.3.
Yolomouse is NOT the reason you're banned. You're either lying about what you used and actually cheated or it's a different program causing it.
Remember, if yolomouse is triggering the bans, EVERYONE using it would have been banned, not just a handful of people.

RNG is RNG, but the faster you kill things the better. How long does it take you to do a rift?

Cheating is cheating.
I view people who exploit to be worse than botters though, but that's just my opinion.

I see no problem with this, as long as you would first have to meet the requirements you're setting.

Seriously, the amount of times I've opened my game to public and someone who is barely geared enough for T1 joins me on a T6 run is retarded. What is the point of having random people join you when there is NO way to filter people from being able to join. Just because your sheet dps is 1m and your toughness is 10m does not mean you're good.
I would claim majority of players who play torment are doing so solo or with friends/clan members because having NO control over who joins your game (let's be real, the kick system sucks) just makes it harder than necessary.

I believe the total reduction from both would come out to 37% or so.

You HAVE to use skills which deal LIGHTNING damage, It boosts their damage.
If it does fire, doesn't work, cold.. nop, arcane... try again.
