Our beloved channel, Op UGL, has been hijacked by a user that stole the 'UGL' account. We are officially moving to Op SCW-. The SCW bot is already there. Please use this channel and spread the news about the channel change.

Hello I just talked with the fine folks from Op SCW-
So I've been on vacation for the past week. I log onto SCR today and noticed I was banned from Op UGL
I checked the logs and seen the bot booted Gangs]Grumi a couple days ago for spamming. This seems to have caused several people issues (including me) with joining the channel. This appears to be a bug with the Battle.net servers and has been reported.
Only a few other people were banned recently and that was for saying "Op SCW-" (the bot will ban you for joining and saying Op/Clan/etc, since that's what the original spam bots were doing months ago when I originally installed the bot). And to be clear, when I originally started using the channel I didn't know anybody "owned" it or that it was attached to this website/league. That only recently became apparent to me. I was just looking to improve the overall experience.
As far as me "taking over the channel and making things worse for everybody," I think I did a good job warding off the spam bots the channel was getting in the beginning, which seems to have died down now. Contrary to popular belief, there's only been 1 or 2 "false-positives" in the past couple months where the bot has booted somebody it shouldn't have.
I've promoted the league via in-game listings (which I'm sure many of you have seen) and running mini trivia games in the channel which people seem to enjoy.
Apologizes for any inconvenience, I'm kind of out of the loop on this drama and I'm about to head out of town again for a couple weeks.
Looking forward to catching up with those of you that don't hate me. See you on the battle field!

Yea, I'm giving this 2 days to stop. Otherwise, I'm gonna report to blizzard that you guys are flooding channels and spoofing CD key hashes in order to deflect bans onto real players. This clearly violates the ToS, and with SCR out, I think there's a good chance legal action will be taken.
-
"You guys"? I have nothing to do with it, I am just asking lol. But good that you want to do that. Hopefully it fixes that spambot shit... I have reported those accounts via the ingame report function already, but I highly doubt that these reports do anything...
-
who ever is doing the spam is also spamming "UGL" as well because they have auto ban on and it bans anybody thats not on sc
-
Lmao Good bye scw. R.I.P
