AndyReklaw 10/17/19 6:53:55 PM #4:	After deciding they were gonna go all in on China they probably should have did this right away for consistency. Instead they: -Showed that it explicitly was China and not just politics -Allowed the players to take the high ground by forfeiting and calling Blizzard on the hypocrisy -And refresh this whole thing with some new headlines My favorite line to come out of this has been "If Blizzard keeps digging this hole deeper they might actually make it to China." --- This user is awesome!: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/user.php?board=804141&topic=12351915135 <cite>AndyReklaw posted [p:928900853] in Blizzard w...

ParanoidObsessive 10/18/19 1:52:18 PM #6:	DirtBasedSoap posted... what does banning people who are already boycotting you even do? Prevents them from going back in and using it to push propaganda, arguably. Though the more likely answer is that they just want to be able to go back to China and say "Yeah man, we totally punished those assholes!" It's like how they openly told the Chinese when they punished the initial player, but then didn't tell them that they eventually alleviated that punishment to try and placate the Western audience. They want to be seen as being hard on people who criticize the Chinese government so they can keep doing business there. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:928932042] in Blizzard w...
