Diii.net
In spring 2008, everyone believed the next game to be announced at the Blizzard WWI in Paris would be Diablo III, and spirits were high. In June, the site got it's first major facelift in a decade, and upgraded it's name from Diabloii.net to Diii.net, a friendly hint to fans of the site, who used to call the site "Dii.net".
With the new site a much easier way to add news was added, and a CMS that allowed for guest authors. The forums got new Diablo 3 subsections, and the whole community shifted gear a in anticipation of the third Diablo game.
