Dont get me wrong, I am by no means flaming THE Unofficial Site, but if anyone goes there on a regular basis you know what I mean.Item Screenshots and Realm Status. Hmmmm... There used to be a time when there was more to report than that. What happened to the interviews? The reports? The content? Is there that much of a drought on Diablo 2 news? DII.Net always seemed to have the inside scoop. Or has the crew grown complacent in their position as Blizzards favorite fan site? Dont get me wrong, Elly, Flux, and Gaile are great people. I used to work there, I know. But it seems to me that content has been slipping. Has anyone else noticed this?

I've noticed the lack of wang (I check daily at work, and then once or twice at home in the evening)...Is there that much of a drought on Diablo 2 news?...and I'm guessing you're right. There isn't a whole lot that comes to mind (news-wise) when anyone mentions Diablo II anymore, can you think of anything? The expansion news horse was beaten dead a couple weeks ago, what's left? The Ex-pack is what everybody wants to hear about, but I think most people can check the LL forums for beta opinions (which is pretty busy throughout the day). It might be kind of hard to mention mod news now that everybody is over here on PD, but mods with new spells, increased difficulty, expansion-like features, possibly (soon) new levels, and fun stuff are about the only unused news left on that site, imo...but I'm not a great news reasearcher/reporter...*shrug* ------------------ later http://www.planetdiablo.com/es [This message has been edited by Perfect Cell (edited 19 June 2001).]

Yeah, a lot of people are timing out to their site. Their servers are overloaded due to everyone looking for Rune Words, and they don't have the bandwidth for it. If you're looking for those, check out the ones on Planetdiablo, or this site.------------------ later http://www.planetdiablo.com/es

Hehe, I think they stole all their news from Diablo2.com, and ever since that went down, I noticed they have done alot less. Hey, it could be true.------------------ Don't question me, I don't give free answers.
