I heard about this.... honestly, it doesn't surprise me. Thott must have been paying a fortune for bandwidth and he took the IGE buyout.

Sad... but true.

I use khazam almost exclusively now.

They aren't above the advertisements either, though. :( However, I don't *think* they're quite to the point of selling out to IGE, either.

But thottbot comes packaged with cosmos...99% of the tards who play the game are going to be feeding them information.

edit the TOC file in the Gatherer addon directory. Change the #interface = 4150 to 4211.
