Blizzard Sues Private Server Company, Awarded $88 Million !

Damn this host is fucking retarded, running World Of Warcraft servers and charging people, it serves them right !! They made $3 million, so there must've been a few people paying them.

Lesson learned, don't fuck with a company's billion dollar baby !!!

Cali Thalen writes “A private server company, Scapegaming (aka Alyson Reeves), was ordered to pay Blizzard Entertainment over $88 million in damages after losing a lawsuit that was concluded last week. Scapegaming was operating unauthorized World of Warcraft servers and using a micropayment system to collect money from the servers’ user base, which according to the lawsuit amounted to just over $3 million. $85 million of that settlement was for statutory damages, and surprisingly only $63,000 in attorney’s fees.”
