Post by: Slo on May 01, 2008, 08:04:37 PM: I doubt this means anything is imminent. Still, at least they are thinking about the franchise enough to be paying attention.

If you think about it, if you're a TRUE Diablo fan... then giving up your domain name is like the ultimate expression of fanboyism :salute
