April 8- Technical updates had to be done due to the move. I forgot to update the links to all of the files that you can download when we moved to this address. Sorry about that. All of the file downloads should work now. Many apologies. Thanks to Tom Furbish for pointing these things out.
April 3- An update the day after? You bet! For some reason my page has begun to get an enormous response. I'm glad since that means more opinions, strategies, and other things to post.
My, my. I forgot to mention that we are now offically a month old.
More opinions on The Guide To Making Pkilling Fun. See here.
More opinions added to The People's Say.
More added to the Cow page.
A thing or two added to The People's Tips and Tactics.
Added Graffiti Wall. Send in your random ramblings, poetry, stories, phrases, jokes, and small artwork and it might get posted. Nothing on it....yet. Idea sounds promising. The normal link is in the Opinion Page.
Keep it coming in! Thanks to all who have contributed. I think I might have to condense this page into old and new news.
April 2- I finally resized that front page image. My photo editor tells me it has a size of 666K, but that is unfortunately not true. It's only 100 or so K now. Yay, fast loading times! I'll have to fix the opening sound next.
I added the GeoCities counter so its now set back, though I had 60 or so hits during the night (advertising pays off). Also resized my banner for GeoCities. It's sorta harder to read now, but I guess it's worth it. Finally I'll get somewhere with this GeoCities stuff.
Info on the new Diablo expansion pack...from Microstar? Check it out.
Added page about the moronacy at Gamistry. Check it out if you want to see an example of pure stupidity. The normal link is in the Opinion Page.
Added picture of ME being Townkilled. See here.
Added a link or two. Check out that Ultimate Diablo Link page. The guy who made it up rates a bunch of guilds/clans and tells you if they cheat or not. Useful.
My brother took my copy of Diablo with him when he left the house last time. I am offically "Diabloless". I really don't mind since I haven't played the game in over two weeks and probably won't until the rumored expansion pack is released or the next patch is. Bought me that Ultima Underworld dual pack CD-Rom and can't stop playing it. Two thumbs up. If you are interested, you may find info on it on the Origin page.
April 1- Found something interesting a few days ago. Try joining a game on battle.net and take a look at the game creators' levels. Something interesting? They will all be around your characters level! This was something that Blizzard did behind our backs and never told us it when the patch did it. Any opinions on the matter?
Updated Blizzard's Opinion on cheating with a March 4 thread. A definate read before you start complaining about cheating to Blizzard.
Added a link or two.
I have to change my counter to get into the GeoRewards program. I also need seven hits a day to get in, so post this page in your links on your own pages...please?
Uncovered secret code: Type in the text entry in Diablo:
|_/**********************They are coming for you********************\_|
to get a secret item in your inventory.
March 26- I know, I know. Updates are coming along slowly now. The newest thing that has happened is that we've move to our new address. I added a link or two or something. As you can see, I'm not real enthusiastic since I don't really have that much input from the 1000+ people who have come here. Only a little (thanks to those who have contributed so far).
March 12- THE DIABLATORIUM IS MOVING. Since I'd like to get into the GeoRewards program THE DIABLATORIUM will be moving into a new address sometime this week. I'll try to leave a link at this address to the new one. I've also had to make some minor edits to some things on various pages...nothing noticable.
Posted Map of the Stars picture on the Cow Page. It's the real thing. Sorry if the picture is a bit of a large load. Maybe it will lead to a cow clue...
Added Dispelling the Rumors. This is a place designed for items like Diablo Plate, etc. Check it out. The normal link is in the Info Page
March 11- Several minor updates on the Cow Page and on the Uniques Page.
Things are starting to slow down, and I have no idea how to get some more frequent visitors. EVERYTHING I know about Diablo (except for cheats) is on this page. Please, take some time and write some email in at diablat@geocities.com .
March 9- Sorry for not updating for a couple of days. Some problems with my ISP and I had a problem with E-Mail security.
Added The Ultimate Diablo Guide. This is a really full document of all sorts of things in Diablo. Includes information on those damned shrines. I also made a seperate section for shrine listings. You can find it in the strategy section.
(I have just noticed that I have almost lost nearly 100 or more mana points from them since I was using the shrines, and didn't know what was happening!)
News On Cheating- Every cheat is back again. Enigma posted his new "trainer", Townkill and Autokill are all over, and people have figured out a way to avoid the clone detection (I have seen and know how to clone, though I'm not going to use it or post the secret on this page. You want good items? GO FIND THEM YOURSELF LIKE I DID!!!). See below for additional comments.
I am still looking for more responses to any sections. Only several things have been inputed (opinion wise). This page ain't gonna go to far without your say. It's March break so take some time out of your busy Diablo playing schedule and send in something.
Other small updates were made also in People's Strategy and The Guide to Making Pkilling Fun.
March 7- Didn't get a chance to update my page yesterday. Something went screwy with the FTP program I had and my lame ISP.
MORE uniques sent in by WhiTE ZoMBiE and posted.
I think that's about it.
March 5- Woke up this morning to find some interesting mail and also found out that I had 400 hits.
First of all, check out the update uniques page. There are a TON more of uniques (many thanks to WhiTE ZoMBiE).
Secondly, someone found my Guide to Making Pkilling fun, well, not pleasing to say the least. Check out Mr. White's comments and my response at the end of the guide.
That damned picture of Ogden up their STILL isn't working! ARGH!
Later on in the day, news of woe struck again. While browsing through the battle.net messages, it has been now discovered how to get around the patches barricades against cheating. Don't these freakin' hackers have something better to do with their time? Come on, there are lots of banks out there looking to be hacked up...seriously though, this COMPLETELY ruins the game. I could care less if you kill me or anyone else, but if you do it while you are cheating, you are not proving ANYTHING!
March 4- I am now in the Diablo Elite Ring. Click on that thing at the beginning to go to other Diablo pages.
I recieved a message from a rep from the Pkiller group "(INFERNO)" explaining what they are all about. It's posted in the People's Say section under Opinion.
I added "What is the Secret of the Cows" in the strategy page. Check it out. Somewhat humorus and serious also.
Other small updates have been done.
March 3- Wow! 118 hits by 12:00! Updated uniques list somewhat with contributions from Nem-X.
I found out that my mail is working fine and have updated all the links to my mail on all of the other pages (that was a pain). The picture of Ogden up there should show up now. I am still looking for input from anyone.
Finally got a letter to add to People's Strategies about the mana shield. I'm looking for opposition to my Guide to Pkilling though, and am surprised that no one has anything to say against it.
I've had a complaint that the text on some of the pages is hard to read, I might have to do some reformating then. I took the background out of the front entrance for now, as it was somewhat difficult to read.
More spelling / grammar errors fixed.
March 2- New Stuff added today: Links to secret Diablo movies! I had a mention of this in yesterday's page, but no link to it. Sorry. Also did a few grammar corrections.
The counter is now here and I'm pleased with the response so far. It's only 5:52 and I have like 45 hits in two days. Not bad. Thanks people.
If you are sending me mail, I might have to change my address soon as I don't know if my Geocities mail is working. Note that I made an error and had the links on the pages sending mail to a non-working hotmail account. I have recieved no mail so far. Please send me a message saying if you want the sound or not at the beginning. I know it takes a bit to download, but it's sorta cool.
March 1- Well, here I am world. This page is BRAND new today and I hope to get a good response from it. Note that this is my first page I have ever made, so bear with me. I'm still looking for good backgrounds so ignore all of the black all around. I will implement new things when I figure out how to work FrontPage good. The next thing I hope to get up is a discussion board, but that may not be for a while so if you have any comments to make, E-Mail me at diablat@geocities.com. If you reload several times on the Welcome page, you get a neat surprise...really...(help me get my counter up).
Feb. 25- The long awaited (well, it's hard to say if it's long awaited, the game has only been out for two months) patch has arrived! The patch solves a number of technical problems and also strikes a blow against the cheaters: duplicated items are destroyed when detected. I'm not so sure if this works though since when I viewed someone else's cheated character, they still had all of their cheated stuff. I think the patch lets you keep everything from before the patch was installed...I'll try to find out more about this later. I'm sure that other cheat patches are on their way. If you were encountering problems loading Diablo before, they most likely have been fixed now.
