World of Warcraft player banned for using Logitech's newest gaming keyboard, the G15!

A WoW player was banned recently for using Logitech's newest gaming keyboard, the G15, but I don't think he was banned for using the keyboard persay, but for using the binded macro buttons to do certain things in game, which supposdely are against WoW's TOS, but only when unattended.

The player had one of the many macro buttons on the keyboard programmed to do three things at once while watching a movie, but he was still there, even though his actions were "bot-like" according to Blizzard.

I hope they give him a second chance, as he has appolized several times and this was his first offence, as well. He has played WoW for 3000 hours and has two Level 60 Characters on two different servers, so I think he deserves another chance.

His story was also submitted to Digg.com, a HUGE website for User-Submitted stories:

The story has recieved over 3000 diggs and has gotten over 300 comments regarding the matter.

Even though what the player did was wrong, according to Blizzard, I hope this story is submitted to many other websites across the internet so that Blizzard will overturn their decision on banning this dedicated WoW player.

Only time will tell now.

he should not have banned for that silly reason, he should certainly give chance to enter in to the community again.
