They are specifically talking about bots and hacks that use memory injection. So no, something like ZK runs and chest farming is not bannable at all. It's not even considered cheating to be honest.

Commodities are down, but it's really weird seeing actual prices on gear. Prices are stupid at the moment though.

i cannot believe they launched RMAH with the state the game is in currently...greedy, greedy bastards.
I recently cleared Act II Inferno solo from beginning to end on my demon hunter. I was at 5 NV for nearly the entire time, with a total of around 150% MF, and didn't skip any champion packs. In that entire time, I received a grand total of one rare item, not counting the guaranteed rares from the bosses. (Maghda, Kulle, etc.) I didn't keep track of how many champion packs I killed, but it must have been well over twenty; all but one pack dropped nothing but blues.
In other words, anecdotes are anecdotes. You need a much larger sample size to draw any conclusions.
What exactly is a "decent pace" however? You can farm and gear that way and that's the intended pace. Buying equipment from the AH (gold AH or item wise) will just speed up the progression.
Personally, I'm expecting the RMAH to be primarily for selling gold. It's just easier to sell a bunch of gold than items for cashing out purposes, really. I can't imagine too many people really jumping at buying progression_upgrade_01 for $25 but maybe 5 people will buy 1M Gold for $6 each.
Yep, shit is about to get funny and tragic, and fucked up.
Same for me - had to close and reopen client.
Still doesn't work after doing that. :/
Lol I don't think a warning is needed for the majority of us. Unless those prices decrease substantially (sub $10 level) I will be using Gold AH exclusively.

It was going to happen anyway. I mean, I looked over how d2jsp works last night and realized. I mean really really realized that this isnt really anything new, and that it was going to happen anyway. With as big as that site is, some probably consider it a bit of diablo history.
Meh Ill live, just get 1.03 live so we can properly farm for upgrades.
Is there any sort of stat calculator out there? It's a pain in the ass trying to upgrade on the AH because without advanced tooltips working there I can't tell if stuff is an upgrade or not. Like for example on the below, I can't tell if the one on the left is actually an upgrade or not :/

Was gonna have a mod change the title, but since we're probably on track for a new OT today, I'll just save my title for then. It'll at least temporarily be RMAH related, and then I might fall back on one of the other ones I had in stock once the initial craze is over.
it's ok bro. I sold my iphone for the cash. I need the DPS boost.
People with money.
They spend a whole lot more on forums for other items/characters.

man none of those people understand the monetary system. Same goes with the gold AH so many thinsg are way overvalued. There is no equip good enough to be worth 30-50 million.

That explains why I sometimes (seemingly random) pick up a dirty white piece of look when I know I clicked on the blue item

Someone actually just bought a Stormshield for $250. I know because I looked at the list and saw one with 32% block for $250, and now it shows as Sold.
I can't wait to see all of the ridiculous prices on the AH and the amazing amount of expired auctions.
All the people thinking, "ZOMG I'm going to make teh moneyz playing Diablo, I'm Rich!!".
I really don't know who is going to pay exorbitant amounts of money for this stuff. Especially for a game that isn't an MMO. What you see is what you get, we're not getting a new expansion or any hint of new content for a lonnnngg time.
Edit:
Ok maybe I'm wrong. Who knows.

Relatively easy to get around by just renaming the program or whatever. Besides, they can't ban you just for having certain programs running in the background unless they have proof that you are using it on Diablo 3. Randomize click positions, randomize delay between clicks (make the delay humanly possible) and it's no different from a very quick human being.
Actually with modern Windows can they even detect it if you explicitly setup the security to hide it? I haven't touched OS development for a while so I'm not sure about that.
Those people are somewhat screwed already since even with MF 200%+ you are still not guaranteed to get a rare from elites but with 1.0.3 you are guaranteed a rare with NVx5, and with Inferno nerfed, the values of MF gears plummet. Just clear the whole act from beginning to finish and you will have a load of rares.
It's a much better system in my opinion but anytime Blizzard change things in the game there will be people who get screwed.
Looking for that avatar quote.

That's fucking insane. I'm upset I had to pay 60 bucks for a game HAHA. You know that person has been paying for gold this entire time too. I wonder what their cost for enjoyment is?
Apparently they are getting sold even with those crazy prices. lol

Maybe I should put all of my awesome gear on the AH and sell it.

What's your current DEX? Your current Crit Damage? Crit Chance? Hard to tell anything without more details, honestly.
That said, the one on the left should be an upgrade in pretty much all situations unless you have an abnormally low DEX.
And thus came the end of the world.
