It should be clarified that Diablo3.com isn't the only site they got, they bought a ton of other diablo3 sites for a little while now.
How the fuck do they use them???
The theory of them getting the domains because the franchise isn't dead still holds true- we never said we were expecting them to make a Diablo 3 site instantly, they probably won't until they actually announce the game.
owning diablo3.com doesnt probe that they will make it.
But they'd have no reason to waste money keeping the domain up (yes, even if they didn't buy it from Umaro, they still have to pay for the domain), along with all the other domains they've been buying up (they bought the other ones, dibalo3.com was free for them, though). So if they buy all these sites, they dish out big bucks to keep the domains up. I think Umaro said that he dished out somewhere in the thousands just to keep his few sites up. They would have no reason to waste resources on something they didn't plan to work on in the future. I'm not saying that I think a Diablo 3 or Diablo mmo will be announced on the WWI, although it's possible. I'm just saying that they now secured the train of thought that the franchise is not dead.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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??
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.
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.

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.

And by the way MD, I was right
