ZBiR Poland1092 Posts July 08 2010 08:25 GMT #2546 I wonder if this is totally random

RaiderRob Netherlands377 Posts July 08 2010 08:25 GMT #2547 Hmm twinkle twinkle little star, I wonder who I are? Oh yeah! Edit: For real content, after thinking this through I'm in the camp of the Facebook conspiracy theorists. Blizzard has had a long time to deal with trolling and there are methods that are just as effective like having a single accountname to post with on the forums and actually enforcing their policies. This is how I think it went down Mr. Kotick: Blizzard we struck a deal with Facebook which will make us tons of money, we're going to make battlenet and Blizzard games into a social network. Blizzard: But we make games? Mr. Kotick: Games, whatever. We need to do what makes most profit. Now implement real names on the forums. Blizzard: People won't like that. Mr. Kotick: I don't really care. We calculated this and we estimate that a max of 20000 people will cancel and the Facebook deal will make us more money than a few lost subscriptions. Blizzard: There will be people that have genuine concerns like employment, stalking, minors etcetera. Is what we doing ethical? Mr. Kotick:Fuck ethics. Fuck those people. Fuck those with unique names. Fuck stalker victims. Fuck them all. We need to maximize profit. You think people will really care? Blizzard: Yes. Mr. Kotick: Ok, just tell them it's to reduce trolling. Those dumb WoW users will certainly fall for that and anyone that mentions the Facebook deal just call them paranoids.

TheBearPaw Lithuania8 Posts July 08 2010 09:18 GMT #2554 Too bad Blizzard seems to be experimenting with all kinds of shit when they release the most anticipated game ever! Why not do it with some bullshit unknown game to test your new policies and THEN apply them to the most popular and respected titles?
