My Current Email to Blizzard
Dear Automated response, I figure I'd right to you, simply because the people at Blizzard are way to busy to take my message, and I had heard rumours, it because the people at Blizzard Don't! CARE! So I guess you'll just have to do me, after all My VERY Favourite Game in the world is slowly dieing before my very eyes. And I just have to tell someone about it, as I see it's being a sad tale about a popular place to be, Meeting people, making new friends and enjoy a Wild and exciting experience in a world that I could Only Dream of. You see, like any other world it does have it bad elements, in this world we have a wide variety of individuals that go to no end to try and corrupt Diablo world. We have the Hackers (Bad people that like to re-write life) and should be avoided at all costs. They like to take what's yours and make it theirs. And these individuals sometimes do it for fun, but of late the corruption has grown considerably, because Now they do it for profit! Using trade Zones like Ebay & PayPal to offload their Unworthy bounty. Then we have the Spammers ( Goblin type form) These creatures are usually harmless to most adventures, so long as you are not lured by their Siren's type call. For the fallen hero, these creatures are nothing more than Tricksters, that will cheat you out of your Skulders & Shako if you let them. Oh! and if Diablo world wasn't bad enough with these two elements we also have the Darkest Creature of all the Menacing LAG Monster. This creature will devour most Non USA Citizens, because the Warp from you to Battle.net is such a vast trip, that the MIGHTY Blizzard in its Wisdom, has not seen fit to extend its realms. Like King Arthur, Blizzard has become set in its ways. Enjoying and basking in the glory of its creation, while silently in the depths of Diablo2, combined elements work day & night at tearing away the very fabric of this Poor forsaken World. The Lag Monster would have to be one of the worst creations one could encounter, Unlike the Hacker & the Spammer. The Lag Monster which I have Pet Named (The Terror Freeze) is a God like Embrace, When safely in an Encampment, an Unwary Adventurer NEW to the realm, May not know he's already in the embrace of the Terror Freeze. Subtle hints like Towns Folk won't trade with you or being unable to pick items up from the ground are just a few of the tell tale signs that you are currently in the very Crisps of the terror Freeze. In passing travels I have heard the villagers refer to it as the BlackWall .. On many occasion I have had the unearthly privilege of experiencing this BlackWall , its as if the World has disappeared right out from under you. Like you had run all the way to the End of the World, and all you can do it is Stare of into the Blackness and wait for Time to Catchup with you, if it Ever does! But Unknown to you, if you are Stair off into the Darkness or encounter the Edge of the World, You have Left your Body behind and is undefended while your astral travelling around! There are Very few ways for a Warrior to recover from this status, a Quick recourse would be to leave this World Quickly before anymore damage can be done. And this method is usually the wisest, but not usually taken by Greatest Warriors that pride has ruled their heart, these gladiators chose to fight on regardless of the odds stacked against them! "Yo! BLACKWALL" I hear shouted Frevishly from across the way, Poor bastard I thought... " Your Over Near the Cow Portal", I shouted repeatedly. Phew! Another Soul saved....So the Warrior retraces his steps as BEST as he can remember them and if his Fortunate, he very may well recover his body and continue his quest to victory. A Great Sorceress once told me that Mighty Amazons Have the ability to summon Spiritual Valkerie to fight by their Side. And that an Amazon can Call on her Valk for Guidance, for when the Terror Freeze has an Amazon in its grasp, her Valk cannot be seen. Only when the Terror Freeze has released her can her Valk be seen or Summoned again! But the GREATEST and worst fear of all is when the Terror Freeze has you, and throughout your questing you forget that Some of the magical Equipment you wear also Endures you with the Ability to wear that WindForce Bow. Remember this oh Weary warrior if Enchantment's Endure you to wear an item and without it you cannot! You chance your ENTIRE Equipment if you Die while in the grasp of the Terror Freeze. Yes! I warn you the Terror Freeze does not tolerate those who do not have the ability to wear the items they might dawn themselves with. MANY MANY times I have heard the disheartening cries of warriors that have fallen to the Terror Freezes (Character Popping). Not all fallen Victims suffer, some are fortunate to be battling along side of friends! Who with Honor, Guard their fallen comrades possession's with their life's. But that is not to say that ALL do fall Victim, my experience with this unsettling situation is its a kinda 50/50 bet. So if you die Always go back and CHECK your body, or at the very least before you leave, check in your spiritual state to ensure nothing came off your Body when you died! And for Goodness sake, if you are not Fighting amongst Friends.. DO Not announce you have been (Popped), there are thieves EVERWHERE! Just QUICKLY and Silently make you way back to your Body to retrieve your Equipment as quickly as possible. Oh! You still there AUTO? Oh! good I was hoping I didn't put your Auto KEYWORD check to sleep... Well where was I, Oh! yes, we were talking about the Dreaded Lag Monster (Terror Freeze), yes a nasty apparition it is. Unfortunately as Battle.net grows, so does the Terror Freeze, making its presence known more frequently and for longer periods at a time. Yes Auto, it is a Most difficult journey for anyone to take but even more so for those of us that Don't belong to the World of 51 States. No, no please you see me wrong Auto, Its nothing like that at all... No I have Many friends I have found in that live in those 51 states. But when we like to test our skills with one another, it seems that the mighty Blizzard does not like it when you Challenge one of its Citizens. And in defence Battle.net will in Blizzards defence Slow time for you, or sometimes stop it altogether. Doing its best altogether to discourage you from challenging its people. Personally I only get frustrated these days when I hear Warriors Boast about their conquests against other champions that I know myself, they may Never had a chance at Justice or Fair Play! But I who am I to Question Blizzards & Battle.net's wisdom for I am no more than another peasant in the Diablo Realms to which I travel!
