Last time you threatened to sue Blizzard.

I think it is less âwhite knightingâ, and the sooner that idiotic phrase fades into obscurity the better, especially as to how often it is used incorrectly, and more people making mock of your claims that you either have grounds to take Blizzard to Court, or that you are going to do so.
Some indeed do. Ones who exploit Third world situations with awful working practices, and through negligence can lead to deaths.
A Computer gaming company however, especially as a corporate entity is unlikely in the extreme to get away with actual murder.
I think if Blizzard had actually established Death Camps for people, they would not be âgetting away with itâ.
What is the precise âcrimeâ that you are taking them to court over?
I mean, lets be real, if severs would be really that bad (i donât think they are) you could actually stand a chance in court.
Game time options can be sold as company sees fit. So no chance here.
Customer support, well, it does work so doubt it has chances here as well.
Customer support not being up to YOUR standards doesnât hold a candle.
BUT⌠judging from lack of OP abilities how to handle legal case (in general) doesnât seem like there is even a speck of hope.
This thread is absolutely hilarious.

It was pretty hilarious from the start âCan someone give me the address for the legal department of Blizzard so I can get my legal team to contact them!â
Everyone else briefly humours them despite knowing they almost certainly know that they do not in fact have a Legal Team, or even a full time Lawyer.
âIâm suing them, for real!â
âYeah, like last time, you saidâŚdidnât happen though did it? Isnât going to happen this time either, is it?â
Everyone settles in to watch the embarrassing silence that comes afterwardsâŚ
Delete the op and change the title to âlock plsâ it will then stop.

If we are White Knighting them then you are Blackguarding them.
Besides, they donât have to change anything ingame as among the stuff you agreed to is that the game may contain bugs. Also, they donât have to allow us to make a ticket about anything but payment issues.

Just wondering if the Legal Team have come back yet and what the general consensus was?
No answer - heâs probably been sworn to silence while his legal reps work behind the scenes doing what ever theâre doing.

I donât think they have gotten back to him yet, I donât think they have finished laughing.
We all know heâs not going to actually do anything about it, his mum wonât let him.

Notice the other thread with the video has disappeared! Alas still no info forthcoming.
One good point OP made was that EULAs and such have been challenged in court. You canât just put whatever you want in a EULA and expect it to hold up in court. If a court finds that someone took money for a service and did not deliver it, no matter what the EULA says, they will have to return the money (if the court determines that is indeed what happened).
What the OP fails to notice is that a EULA is a contract agreement, and as such falls under civil jurisdiction (as opposed to penal code). If you sign an agreement (or, for example, click âI have read and I agreeâ under a digital document) you have agreed that you will follow the rules established, as long as theyâre not violating the law.
The situation isnât as black and white as anyone in this thread claims it to be. Now, in all likelihood, OPâs claims are spurious, as they are in 90% of such cases, but it is possible to challenge a EULA in court for violating the law or for unethical business practices.

The Eula exists solely as an indication that certain things can and do happen. For example not guaranteeing 100% uptime. The fact that you have acknowledged this point means that if it ever did go to court, it would stand against you because you knew it could happen, and still agreed to it.
Itâs more a safety net for companies than a legality.
As long as the point are reasonable and donât break any laws, the agreement is a legal contract.
Spot on. Basically if the EULA or ToS contravene or can be proven to contravene, rights afforded by a national law or EU directive (if in the EU) then theyâre unenforcable. Having said that, if this supposed legal action is a civil action (rather than a complaint to a relevant authority) then that will quickly get very expensive, particularly if itâs lost and Blizz files a claim for costs.
There are quite a few variables to consider. Exactly as youâve said, itâs far from black and white.
