It seems that not all is going well in the popular MMORPG World of Warcraft. Despite Blizzard’s efforts to only ban people who engaged in illegal activities, their recent changes in the banning policy has stirred a bit of commotion among players:

“We changed our build bylaws,” Bonner said. “We will also take action if we find someone violating” the terms of service…Even if someone hasn’t been caught by (Blizzard) and we find out they are involved with something like that, we’ll kick them out to prevent it spreading to others in the guild.”

As a former World of Warcraft player I have to say that that is indeed alarming. Since player guilds are becoming bigger and bigger, it’s easy enough to be banned all of a sudden just because some member you might not even know very well bought some gold off some random website.
