Blizzard Closes 20,000 Accounts

Blizzard’s official Battle.net website has been updated with the news that they’ve temporarily closed 20,000 accounts for using map hacks in Warcraft III. Here’s a snippet:

In keeping with our aggressive stance against hacks and cheats, we have closed 20,000 accounts that were found to be using Warcraft III map hacks, and removed their ladder records. In addition, the CD keys of those offenders have been banned from ladder play for two weeks. We will continue to monitor the Warcraft III realms for malicious players.
