Wouldn't go too far with that. Only thing significant is that we are months exactly from this happening.

Bashiok, dont u think all of those "solutions" are exaggerated? Why not, just once, choose the easy way, what about to forbid gear swaping while you are in combat? There have to be some combat status in D3 am i right?? If there is, this is the best solution.
There is no "combat" system in Diablo. There was some issue that came up during beta (can't remember what it was) but Bashiok posted that there is no combat system and in order to add such a system would require them to do a large overhaul of the game.
This is bullshit. They make you take durability while in combat even when you take or deal no damage. They absolutely can tell you are in combat. If for some mind-warping reason they can't (which again is already proven to be possible by the durability wear-and-tear mechanic), they can simply have a hidden debuff that prevents gear swapping for 10 seconds after taking or dealing damage.
Quote from maka
This is all just because some people are so anal that they do the stupidest things just to get an edge, like swapping gear mid-fight. If you wanna stack MF, do it like normal people, and take the drawbacks that come with it (more MF = less DPS/survivability). Gear-swapping is just people wanting to have their cake and eat it too. It's unacceptable, to me.
There is a pretty decent solution that nobody's mentioned yet (or at least I haven't seen it). Remove the possibility of item swapping during boss fights. I know it doesn't prevent people swapping during fights with elite packs, but it's a start.
I would also like them to bring back charms in some form or another. Just don't make them take up inventory space, that was horrible. Create a dedicated inv space just for them or something.
Was gonna write this but you hit the nail on the head. People don't play in a vacuum, what others do still affects everyone else, via the AH, for example.Quote from Zakaz
Again, your way of playing absolutely does influence my way of playing - it affects the economy, which impacts my time requirement to achieve specific levels of gear or progression, which affects my choice in how I play the game. Stop pretending like your experience is the only experience, ok?

Quote from Drkclone
Am I the only one fearing that we will hear soon "Mid 2012"? I like how they are showing changes they have made/are making but a lot of this I feel could of waited till after release or an expansion.
how could they waited to make those changes? these are CORE changes which directly influence the gameplay
Quote from CherubDown
I'll address what I said since there seems to be a problem.
My colegue Molster quickly pointed this out when I first wrote this up. So I was inclined to put a question mark in the title. I figured that would clear up the intent of the short what was to be a blue quote with a twist.
Since D3 was originally slated for this year, and that Bllizzard is working really hard on getting everything in, and the nature of Blizzard Entertainment, it's not ridiculous for me to theorize the system could be scrapped.
I'd also say that Bashiok's quote wasnt perfectly clear either. What testers was he talking about? I took what I could from the quote and delivered what I think to be a reasonable conclusion.
All that, plus I'm in the middle of finals so I threw this all together very quickly. If the wording isn't perfect it's because I'm busy worrying about Computer Architecture and UNIX networking

For a more traditional website thoughm you can maybe get away with a modified Guild Portal website. Other than that, it's off to open source templates or CMS stuff not easy either.
EDIT: http://www.guildportal.com/ is pretty good, was curious and took a look, they do have a Diablo 3 section, so maybe custom tool will be developed in the future. Try it out.

While yes, I do agree on the RMAH note, I got a BlizzCS twett back saying I wouldn't recommend it (as far as buying EN version to ship overseas to another country). May be that the limiting factor is the language diffference itself.
On another note, got some great entries, but I want my job to be made hard to pick a winner, submit your entry today; 4 days left!!! (till Midnight December, 23rd)
