Default Starcraft won't ever be open source...

I asked on the Blizz forums and an admin said "As long people still actively play Battle.Net, we will not release the source. It would lead to hackers and the downfall of the Battle.Net community."

And then about 2 hours later, an admin deleted the post and suspended my account(wtf?). But yeah...

Would of been nice to see this ported :/

Not sure, but I believe QJ.net won't post news about it anymore, since it is infact illegal, since they are using the Starcraft name, Starcraft sprites, etc.

The LUA version got a cease-and-desist, I believe.

Talking

dam it did? even then i don't get why it would be almost impossible with a few coders to get the same type of ai (even in c) in that game as the original copy and if there just worried about the b-net it would have been 50 times harder to incorporate it into online and even then it couldn't be incorporated with any type of B-net it would have to be a completly new server so if i was the person running things for starcraft i would of sat back and laughed at there attempts but i'm not the person so what does it matter=-)
