Blizzard doesn't want the patch notes released for a simple reason: they're not the final patch notes. They are NOT final. In other words, these patch notes WILL change before patch time, and sure enough, Blizzard fanboys and haters are going to bitch and moan that these aren't correct.
Blizzard is simply taking precausions to prevent the flaming of their company over incomplete, leaked patch notes. Now that these are out, the patch will change a bit, and <B>I guarantee the flamers are going to be whining that these pre-emptive notes weren't the truth even though Blizzard warned against trusting them.</B>
Half the people in this thread are taking the patch notes as Gospel just like the rest of the Internet. I don't blame Blizzard for suspending people for posting these or bringing them up...it only leads to cries of false hopes once it's patch time because the leaked notes aren't final.
