5.7.2001 - KPK Inc.: The KPK's Guide started

$h@v3Y0ur$n@+cH has begun work on a guidebook to KPKing (Korean Player Killing) and generally harassing Korean players.

KPK Inc.: The KPK's Guide Ver 1.0 expected release date: 5.21.2001

5.6.2001 - IMPORTANT: Regarding the MWL

The Most Wanted List now has a regular update time. It will be updated every Saturday morning (Battle.net time). It may, from time to time, be updated more frequently, but that is the exception to the rule.

5.5.2001 - First additions to the MWL are made!

Today two especially annoying FoKs were spotted and reported (with screenshots of the behavior). Please check the Most Wanted List for the update.

5.4.2001 - "..." Bug Variant in limited use

A variant of the "..." bug has been seen (and tested) in limited use on Battle.net today on the Europe Realm. The bug was discovered by a Japanese player and posted on Diablor.com yesterday.

The bug will not be fully reproduced here, for fear of widespread over-abuse (and immediate correction by a frightened Blizzard staff). We cannot rely on such bugs to help us for long, if at all. The bug should also be easy enough to figure out, and widely known within two more days anyway (so, basically, don't blame KPK Inc. for it).

5.1.2001 - $h@v3Y0ur$n@+cH PKs a rich Korean

A lower level Korean went hostile on $h@v3Y0ur$n@+cH for no reason... and ended up paying for it (really!)

5.1.2001 - Forums added!

If your eyes support color vision, you probably noticed the big new "KPK Inc. Message Forums" link on the upper left of this page. Click on it, log in, and you can start chatting or using the message board system right away.

4.30.2001 - KPK website up and running!

The KPK website is finally up and somewhat operational. Now you have a place to come for all of your KPK needs!

4.26.2001 - Blizzard "fixes" the bug

It was a sad day for us all when we logged on, got attacked by some FoKs, and could not use the "..." bug to boot them anymore. Blizzard has worked around this by adding line breaks to any series of periods beyond one line in length. >sniffle<

4.20.2001 - Blizzard becomes aware of the "chat bug"

Apparently, Blizzard does not listen to the complaints of its users with regards to the Korean Problem on B.net and is "working to implement a fix soon". In the meantime, a noticeable reduction in the number of Koreans outside of Asia has been detected.

4.17.2001 - Korean removal feature discovered!

Some bored soul discovered that if you type in a string of only "..." and fill the entire in-game chat-box with it and then press [enter], you can boot any Koreans in the game! Wonderful tool to remove those obnoxious ones.

4.15.2001 - chnill destroys 4 Koreans in a 20-minute bout!

$h@v3Y0ur$n@+cH was observing in a safe, low-level character as chnill obliterated 4 Koreans. It was a great match between him and the Forces of Kimchi!

4.14.2001 - KPK semi-organized

KPK was founded and brainstormed upon one fateful day on Battle.net as $h@v3Y0ur$n@+cH, chnill, s3ph, and SamTheRabbit were discussing the sad state of all the realms outside of Asia.
