My personal theory is that it’s a mix of both. They lost data and whatever is left is too troublesome from a cost/benefit analysis perspective. Naturally I have no way to prove this, but the onus at this point is for Blizzard to disprove it because I’m tired of giving the benefit of the doubt.
On a different note: Duraace, I don’t know if you’ll read this but I’ve read your post over at EU General Discussion and wish I could like it.
