Diablo III Hacking?

A bunch of threads on the Diablo III forums from players who've experienced unauthorized access to their accounts suggest their may be a security issue with the action/RPG sequel or that the game's future support of real-money auctions has attracted more hacking attempts than one would consider normal. The threads in question are: Ummm...all of my gold and items are gone, Hacked. GG Online Only Single Player DRM, Hacked with an authenticator, and The hacker found (with screenshot). Thanks nin.

You haters are just as annoying, if not more, than the rabid fanboys you keep detesting. We get it, you hate Blizzard and Diablo 3, yet you can't seem to stop talking about it and somehow wind up on every forum regarding Diablo 3. Nobody cares now go have a wank on the T2 forums already.
LOL. Sorry, I laughed.

I don't think it's about "Hate Blizzard"; it's about "Hate Corporations"

When will you people start to SEE that Blizzard is turning into EA; or any other big company that is just in it for the money. The money!

The truth hurts, therefore many find hard to accept it and even try not to accept it. The truth has been fluffed up with excuses, therefore many are deceived.

Blizzard is at a stage now where they just want to pump out the games for the monies, and since their reputation is so high--they know it is--they feel they can push out random crap--built by random devs--to the people; and people bought it. Any original dev that brought his passion to the table, was fired--because it didn't serve the purpose of making money.

Here is proof that Diablo 3 is just a random game, built by random devs: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/5235705700

I don't believe that Blizzard thinks about making the most amazing game first in priority, I think they make the financial model first and build a game around it. Atleast the one's actually making the decisions.
It reminds me of Las Vegas, the house has a new game, fun? Yes. Do you lose higher percentage? Yes.

Is it making some people wealthy as they live real non-digital lives? Yes.
Have children always been the easiest to con and manipulate? Yes.
Is that good for entertainment purposes and making amazing game experiences? Absolutely Not.

They are getting away from making good games to making video slot machines, with a lot of the psychology gimmicks that make gaming a bit disgusting. Manipulating those with addictive tendencies, capitalizing on it, more so than other devs.

Now they are building some twisted new avenues in a 'game' for people to steal other people's many hours invested of game progress. Which I'm sure would affect anyone in their real world life quite a bit, in a 'entertaining game' of their own making.
