| Topic | Blizzard bans and withholds prize money from hearthstone player for HK support |

All Blizzard had to do was say the opinions dont reflect that of the business if thats their stance. Even if they have an anti politics rule which I highly doubt then they could ban the player but withholding the money he won legitimately because youre scared that his opinions might make people angry is a fucking joke. Fuck Blizzard the cowards. I think that the nba not folding makes blizzard look even worse, however if what Blizzard wanted was to get out of this unscathed in the eyes of china, just putting out that statement wouldn't have gotten the job done, because the NBA did just that and then china took action against the NBA in retaliation. In fact I wouldn't be surprised, and maybe it's already been brought up, if people in Blizzard saw the NBA get retaliated against and said "no way we can't have that." In any case, china made it clear they won't settle for anything less than bowing down before them. --- I'm a greener egg than the eggs from dr. seuss ... Copied to Clipboard! |
