Does the NDA for Sixen and Force include not being able to confirm if this guy is a fake or not? =P I mean, it's not like they're revealing anything unless they confirm it, right?
Plus if that really is the DH resource system I'd reaaaally turned down by it. It would mean that actually owning my enemies by keeping the distance, setting traps and killing cost of em without taking many hits would mean I'm left with no resources for the next battle. Sigh. Plus, fighting tons of ranged enemies would mean no resources, wtf? I'm sure Blizz is better than that, and it pretty much proves that he's trolling IMHO.
You guys sure are spammy lately. I assume you've got ants in your pants waiting for Sixen. Stay on topic and hold it together guys. We're almost to the promised land.
On a relating side note;

Here's another interesting take on these fake accounts, and it adds another (possibly fake) teaser about major changes:
Fake Info Leaks from Blizzard Irvine
Posted 28 July 2011 by Flux
In an inevitable development, a new twitter account, @D3Anonymous, has popped up, run by someone who claims to have been at the media event at Blizzard Irvine today. He’s tweeting up a storm, with more than 60 posts in the last 4 hours, and while most of them are on previously-known info, there are a few with new revelations/predictions.
It’s DiabloWikiD3Here on Twitter! Not the same guy, but the same principle. This time the deception won’t live nearly as long, since we’ll find out everything from the attendees when their NDA expires on August 1st. If not sooner.
As most of you guys know, I am not typing this from Irvine, since Blizzard PR, in their infinite wisdom, elected not to extend an invitation to a representative of the largest, oldest, and most trafficked Diablo fansite on the internet. As a result, I’m not bound by any NDA, and when people who actually were at the event today send me info, there’s nothing legally stopping me from posting it. For instance [tease snipped by request].
Based on what I’ve heard tonight from actual event attendees, this D3Anonymous guy is entirely, 100% fake. (And looking back, D3Here was definitely fake as well.) Both of them were peddling old info with a few new predictions, and none of their deceptions even scratch the surface of the big, major, huge, shocking changes that have been made to D3 since we last saw the game at Blizzcon 2010.
In short, nothing in these new tweets even approaches the level of big news revelations we’ll soon be able to share with you guys. (And I am not at all sure that the changes will be popular. We’re talking major reworking of numerous game systems.)
That disclaimer given, here are a few of the more interesting tidbits Mr. D3Anonymous shares. As far as I know, none of them are true, except perhaps by accident. Take them purely for entertainment purposes.
One of the Monk tier 7 abilities, called Avatar of Azurewrath, 2 minute cooldown, Monk turns into a weapon of light and looks like a yellow-white light shadow figure that grants a MASSIVE attack speed and movement speed increase. Most awesome thing I’ve seen.
monk can now use shields, has a new smite ability that stuns + knockbacks enemies in front of him to make shield more viable for monk
You can click on players portraits in the battle.net interface and view what they have for sale, as well as full search funct. AH for mats.
And the news everyone has been waiting for….. Beta on the 15th of August.
players are placed in channels based on their level, and all have portraits, and an instant search bar at the bottom
DH has some awesome new skills, strafe: DH kind-of jumps and does a spin with arrows spewing out from every direction very rapidly #diablo3
At least claiming that there are major changes to major systems that people might not like is a bold claim. And this guy puts his name/rep/website on the line with it, so this will stick with him. It's not going out on a huge limb or anything, but it has been awhile since we've seen anything concrete about the game through video, so it's entirely possible.
I wonder what major changes to existing systems might have happened...?
its all over in that video, just gotta watch it. The monk actually has a skill that does blow everything to shit, but I thought that was another skill and not the one he is refering to (if you watch the video, youll understand). But maybe it is that one, since everything usually blows up, right towards the end up it.
There's no ability in that video that is unidentified, and the BS Azurewrath skill isn't present.
Ya it is bro, your deff. dont got your eyes open then cause ive seen it more then once.

Oh ok ya thats the name, but wasnt that the skill he was talking about?
Seven sided strike will very likely not have this kind of cooldown. I think he as talking about a buff (avatar reminds me of the monk incorporating a powerful entity).
About the inc game info. It's not the first time inc game gives completly fake info. I remeneber when a idiot there created a bunch of fake rune effects and they just posted in their wiki as true information.

Closing the thread. There isn't much more to discuss here. Since Cherub linked us to our administrators twitter account it has been confirmed that this information is bogus.
