Subject : Clarification on New Terms of Service
Dear sir,

I would like to point to the Terms of Service as stipulated in your recent release of the patch 2.0.3 to Paragraph 4, Section A which states :-

4. Limitations on Your Use of the Service.

A. You may only access the Service from within the territorial boundaries of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand or Singapore. Any access to your Account, whether by you or anyone else, from any location outside those countries is a breach of this Agreement.


As your company is well aware my contact address as required lists me as a Malaysian which is excluded from the countries mentioned.

Will this affect my ability to play as a paying customer using your services or am I safe from any prosecution as a result from this change in the Terms of Service.

For your information, there are many other Malaysians who are playing and paying for your services and this has been made to mention here
at this forum link. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/395476

Any further information and clarification about this issue would be much appreciated.

Yours sincerely,
Nocturnus of Malicious Intent
60 Undead Rogue, Malorne

I believe we are listed along with Singapore. No worries unless you are playing from China I believe.

I talked to the customer support about my banning of account logged with a .cn host name resolve. Since then they tell me that malaysia WoW distribution is listed with Singapore.

IIRC, they have a press release about the Asia partnership for WoW distribution for the time card and game through Asiasoft stating about Malaysia and Singapore too.

But its best to get the latest cookie from oven from Linkz now since ToS changed.

better be safe than sorry in my opinion. besides with this change they'd kill any future gamers from our country to sign up for WoW.

I just think that Malaysians invite ourselves to be screwed by others. Look at the arrogance at which we deal with other countries. We think that the world needs Malaysia. Time to wake up... globalization is at our doorstep.

After we screw and criticize US policies for so many years, maybe this is their way of getting back at us. biggrin.gif

i don't think we need to concern about that as long as none of us are getting ban for that ToS.

I've had my account registered since November 2004, the month WoW was released. I got a cousin of mine to sign up my account for me in the United States, using some random address and random phone number. By now, my account has not been shut down or anything.(it's probably because i have never paid by credit card before). Should I change my contact info and address to my malaysian address, phone number etc.?

Lol it will be pointless for asiasoft to distribute to malaysian if they are gonna get banned anyway.

Blizzard also wont endorse asiasoft to distribute in the first place.
