Timeline:
- Blizz submitted D3 and whole RMAH to get a rating from GBR.
- GBR want more "material" to make their decision.
- Instead of giving them more material, Blizz simply removed the "cash-out" feature and submitted that. Blizz knew the GBR is full of shit and was probably tired of waiting for them to make a decision. So by removing the possibility to make cash, Blizz removed the biggest "gambling" aspect of the RMAH.
This is what really happened.
Blizz submitted D3 and the whole Auction feature. However it failed to demonstarate the RMAH feature in front of GRB, which is necessary to make their decision.
So GRB advise that Blizz demonstrate the RMAH feature at the next meeting as the paper submitted to GRB instead of wanting more meterial.
The final D3 Blizz submitted to GRB seemed not to include the whole Auction feature. That's why D3 was finally passed in S.Korea. We do not know why Blizz did that way.
GRB and game newspapers said this way, but Blizz in S.Korea denied it and kept silent so far.

If under 18 SKans can only play 4 hours a day max, it will affect Blizzard themselves...not much at all, but it will. Remember, SK can still sell and stuff on the Gold AH...Therefore: Sell on GAH - people buy it for gold - same people use/sell for cash. Blizz will still make less money cause of this, even if it is small.
I believe that for nomal students, four hour gameplays a day are still a lot unless they want to become professional gamers later. I think you do not know how smart and clever Korean yound kids are. I am 100% sure that the new law will not affect their playtimes. There are and will be still many bypasses.
Are you really worried about whethr Blizz can make a profit from S.Korea? You sound like a Blizz man. Why do you care so much about Blizz? For me, that is not my concern at all. All I want is a speedy release of D3.
Regarding the banning things, you are wrong. It's more like Blizz in S.Korea was not well-prepared for the rating.
I do not understand why you have brought one country's issue up here, a D3 fansite, far from S.Korea. If you want to make a change for the new law, talk to the government or its law makers, not here.
