	http://www.screwattack.com/news/blizzard-mistake-obliterates-diablo-3-economy Quote: On Tuesday, Blizzard rolled out patch 1.08 which, among other things, increased the amount of gold you could put up on the Auction house to 10 million. While that in itself reduced the ever dropping value of gold, it also contained a bug that if players were to list 10 million and remove it they actual received double the amount back. Once this got out players went crazy duplicating trillions of gold, buying out high priced item and drastically driving up prices in general. One more reason to play Path of Exile..

Quote: The proceeds made through the game's real money auction house by the suspended or banned players will be given to the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. This includes the player's sale proceeds and Blizzard's transaction fees. Good for blizzard.

	Blizzard is a big company that makes a LOT of money. They can afford to do the right thing. Turbine however...

	For all their faults, Blizzard has always been very serious about customer service.
