   As a follow-up to our previous story "To be or not to be banned...", we have nothing but good news for the "very small percentage" of World of Warcraft players running the game on Cedega under Linux! It only took Blizzard one week to figure out that they basically screwed up, and to reinstate the wrongfully banned WoW accounts. After working with the developers of Cedega, they acknowledged that the bans were in fact made in error by their Game Master department, due to Blizzard's anti-cheating software (Warden) incorrectly flagging these accounts as using third-party cheating software. When, in fact, it was just an (unsupported) Windows emulator for Linux.

   Once again, WorldOfWar.net has the full story, along with the brilliant news that players affected by this temporary banning will receive a total of 20 days credit of free play time!
"our staff worked directly in conjunction with the Cedega development team in a rigorous and thorough review of the situation. We have since determined that your account was one of those accidentally flagged, and as such we are immediately reinstating your account to fully playable status.

Blizzard Entertainment deeply regrets the error, as we understand that this brief account closure presented you with an inconvenient and highly frustrating experience. We remain firmly committed to enforcing our regulations and suspensions for those exploiting our game, in the interest of ensuring that our legitimate customers have the best possible play experience. In this case, however, we regretfully caught a handful of innocent customers in the process, and for that we offer you our genuine apology.

In consideration of our error, we are applying a credit of two weeks play time onto your account, in addition to crediting back the time that your account was locked. This comes to a total of twenty (20) days credit, which should be visible on your account within the end of the week."    At a time like this, don't you wish you were playing World of Warcraft on Cedega and get a couple of free weeks?
