Diablo 3 fans went crazy after they read this article stating that retailers were ordered to stop selling diablo 3 after CBCP was granted TRO by SC.
The alleged “news” mentioned that:
MANILA, Philippines — Popular PC role-playing game (RPG) Diablo III, which was released worldwide last Tuesday was ordered to be pulled off shelves and prohibited retailers from selling them after the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) was granted a temporary restraining order (TRO) by the Supreme Court (SC) after the church group found the game to be “too “evil” and “anti-Christian”.
This Honorable Court hereby grants the petitioner, Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines a temporary restraining order against the selling of the PC game Diablo III, hereby known as the respondent, to the Filipino people, effective immediately until an indefinite time or upon the court’s lifting of the said order.
Retailers shall be prohibited from selling, renting the respondent whether physically or through online transactions. Violators who are caught or proven to defy the TRO shall be meted with a punishment (smiting or excommunication) to be determined by the petitioner and their God.
Citizens who has already bought and played the respondent are ordered to cease and desist such unholy activity immediately to be able to be saved by the petitioner and their God.
So, What’s News? is a satirical & fictional news website. It is NOT REAL. (From their website)
With that being said, please do not be gullible, and examine every article carefully before unleashing your rage. Or at least read until the footer of the site and you will see the notice above.
This article is made for fun only so do not even waste your time attacking it or you’ll end up in the “shameful” side of the story.
I love this article, by the way. Diablo was a defendant (can’t wait to see him in court). And who is the gaming priest Jobert Jeyes? I know the running priest Robert Reyes but I haven’t met the former yet.
To the creator of the article, nice job! It made me smile, and you made my day!
To those who were fooled, Happy Diablo Fool’s Day! Please do not hate the author of the article (as I admire him/her for the wit), just go back to the game and kill some skeletons, butchers, spiders, walking trees and zombie like characters from The Walking Dead.
Now, let’s go back to Tristam!
