Blizzard say NO to SF :: 迪悠博客

　　　As many of you already know, Blizzard has taken steps recently to stop the development of unauthorized emulator servers for the World of Warcraft?? beta.
　　While we appreciate the devotion and enthusiasm the GotWoW? community has shown for World of Warcraft, the development of emulator servers directly contributes to the illegal copying of the beta game client and creates the opportunity for people to continue to play on unauthorized servers after the completion of the World of Warcraft beta test.
　　Some individuals may have helped develop emulator servers under the belief that Blizzard was not opposed to the existence of illegal copies of the World of Warcraft beta game client. However, this belief was incorrect. Blizzard places a high value on its intellectual property and does not condone illegal copies of the beta game client or software that facilitates or encourages the use of illegal copies of the beta game client.
　　Leaders from various emulator-server development teams, including StormCraft, Vibe, and Khaos, have turned over their code and stopped development of emulator servers. We are asking that those of you who are continuing to operate unauthorized emulator servers for the World of Warcraft beta take this opportunity to voluntarily stop these efforts and turn over your code to Blizzard as well. For a short period of time, Blizzard will grant amnesty to those who comply with this request. Please contact us at wowsc@blizzard.com for more information.
　　Thank you for your understanding and for helping us to ensure the integrity of the beta-testing process. We look forward to seeing you in game when World of Warcraft is released!
　　这是暴雪针对《魔兽世界》私服程序制作团队发出警告。私人服务器的存在确实对游戏商造成很大的损失，也侵犯了出版商的知识产权，但是在中国，这种发展趋势是不会被扼杀掉的，就像中国的盗版软件一样！为什么中国的盗版如此猖獗：因为中国的正版软件太贵，盗版跟正版软件在质量上相差不多，差别在于在线服务，很少有人愿意花费不必要的金钱去买服务，因为盗版软件的更新速度比正版的慢不了几天，何必呢？我就是盗版软件的忠实用户！也许会有人说我浅薄，但是请记住：“经济实力决定一切”。我也坚决反对如微软这样的公司采取的地区歧视政策，为什么相同的软件，在大陆竟会如此昂贵！杀毒软件我坚决正版，不过我首选国产！
　　今天体验了一下《魔兽世界》，因为以前从未接触网络游戏，我也不好妄加评论，每个人喜好的风格不同，就跟很多人喜欢《天堂》《奇迹》一样，他的风格很适合我，不过我不会沉沦进去，因为我没有钱买点卡，即使有钱我也不会用在这方面。我问了很多人，他们也是这样想的！我们都期待高质量私服的出现，我只能对Blizzard说sorry ! 毕竟钱不能都让你挣去。
从信上可以看出来Blizzard还是有“怀柔”的迹象，所以，私服程序制作团队，Action ! we love you !
