You used the chatrooms? Really? Well I guess they were a good place to discuss strategy.
But I really prefer the stranglehold on the custom games. Now they have to be approved. Do you not remember the horrendous environment sc1 was? Players would modify their starting position to be the best one. Boost the stats of infrequently used heroes in games like golem and blood. Give themselves extra resources in things like evolves. Every custo game had like 100 versions of it, and it didn't matter what the name was, they would just modify it and upload the game under the same filename.
Cross country playing I never was really into because didn' really know anybody overseas at that time, but I can see now how it would be a good thing to have.
The great thing about Blizzard is that they play their own games. They fix their stuff and add new features all the time. To me, what matters the most is having fun, and a lot of those past elements just didn't contribute that much to the fun. Sure it was easier for a guy to make a new custom game and upload it, but now it just takes an extra couple steps.
