Dupes killing diablo 2?

[Blue]

D2 was ruined for me a long long time ago, I think it was the day that they started banning people for botting and maphack and did practically nothing about dupers/dupes. I've been on recently, this lag is nothing compared to the lag of a couple years ago. Does anyone else remember waiting in line so long that the game would close and then when you tried to join another game afterward you got IP banned for 5 hours?

lol, i remember those lines. but i joined closed just as they were coming to an end. however, d2 only lagged in like 1 out of every 20 games. all others were nice. but yeah the dupers totally ruined it and is probably the only reason why i quit
