Blizzard prevents StarCraft II gamers from being cheated

Tuesday morning, Blizzard sent out a 'friendly reminder' in a move to prevent StarCraft II player from being cheated.

The company thus advised gamers in mail to spread the word that anyone caught cheating or modifying the StarCraft II game client will be permanently banned from logging into Battle.net, Blizzard's catchall player aggregation service.

It’s well known, Blizzard Entertainment has always taken cheating in any form in Blizzard games very seriously, and that's no different for StarCraft II.

If a StarCraft II player is found to be cheating or using hacks or modifications in any form, then as outlined in our end user license agreement, that player can be permanently banned from the game. This means that the player will be permanently unable to log in to Battle.net to play StarCraft II with his or her account.
