Actually, I make a habit of reading it each time it changes. Given the crap that went down with
Warden, etc, etc a while back I've been interested in what changes they do make as they make them.
The fun part will be when I find something vile enough that I contact Blizzard and demand a refund of any un-used game time from the date they enact a new EULA.
The part that most people seem to be misunderstanding is this:
They locked down access to "unreleased data". They've put a clause in the EULA that makes it a violation to modify game data to access this information. They've modified the client in an attempt to prevent the access of this data. The shotgun effect this has is it also locks out the mods that the community here uses/produces. It makes perfect sense from a program standpoint to take this kind of "broadsword" slice at things. It's simple enough to do and requires almost no upkeep once it's put in place. They can then spend WEEKS pre-loading data in the background to everyone before a 'major' content push and then BINGO, spring it on everyone with a lot of hooplah and fanfare and such.
Those who expect that things will go back to the way they were after Dec 7, I think you're wrong on this one. I don't see them disabling this lockout or making an "exception" to the rules inside the program that govern this. Unfortunately I expect the arms race has started again and for those who want to do model edits are going to have to resort to more "this can get you banned, don't QQ if it does" work....
i just hope they fix it for us
