Battle.net CD-key/server trick

I found a way to be logged on to Battle.net twice using the same CD-key at the same time.

First, figure out how to run two instances of a game (or use a bot).  Then on one client, have it connect to a server (USEast for example [useast.battle.net]).  Then on the second client, have it connect to a different server (USWest for example [uswest.battle.net]).

Then boom, you're on Battle.net twice using the same CD-key.

This trick is useful if you only own one Battle.net game (one CD-key).

I'm telling you all this because you could do it for a while and I think it's about time everyone should know about it.

Enjoy!

I found out by just doing it (it never occurred to me that it wouldn't work).

ok, so you can connect to two gatesways with one key, and how useful is that??? You going to spamvertise for your clan on another gateway  :P, I just don't see it.

Damn, I thought this post might actually be worth something.

Thanks for posting common knowledge!

Lol!

I first read this post topic and thought to myself, this is some idiot advertising a CDKey Generator or something. Then, I saw that the author of the post was Spht and I changed my mind, and thought it was going to be a good useful post.

Thanks for getting my hopes up, Spht. :(

A bunch of negative feedback for someone who is just filling some people in on something they might not know. It didn't really require a bunch of  pointless comments.

So hard on the newbies, Spht! Quite a trick there. I think I'll use it to hax0r b4ttl3.n3t.

DarkGhost[DD] creates so many useless topics and posts that he's been brought up for suspension from my forums. Which are significantly harder to get banned from than these.

Nah, this is just Spht poking for attention, because he realizes now that everyone dislikes what he usually has to say. Spht, this topic was still pointless, and dumb; a true reflection on what you usually have to say, anyways. Thanks.

Thanks for info Spht, I didn't think about that.

Ah, great idea!  I thought that this was that one other bug, I showed it to Skywing and had him do it in Op [vL] once to me.  [vL] unbanned UserLoser. even though UserLoser. wasn't banned as was in the channel at the time ;-)
