Look, I get that most Blizzard employees are hardcore horde fans. And I get I have to live with the constant favoritism by the developers and the over the top 'For The Horde' cries everywhere you look at Blizzcon. But when Samwise brought out that piece of filth from Cannibal Corpse and he was constantly like 'F' the Alliance throughout the video package and onstage, I found that offensive and rude. I get you want the factionalism, but lets face it, you have been going way to far with the favoritism we pay your salaries as well as the horde players do) and the racor and vile especially on the horde side is growing too much.


We pay you money so the alliance should be equally popular as the horde. Someone said fuck a virtual faction on stage and this is offensive! Some people really have to grow up. Getting upset because someone hates a fictional character? If somebody on a stage says fuck Dumbledore would you write an open letter? No...



FOR THE HORDE


Quoting your youtube video for relevence. That guy sums it up pretty damn well. Also <3 Comedy Roadshow.

He's in a fucking death metal band. Have you ever listened to cannibal corpse? There is a guaranteed amount of "i don't give a fuck what you think" with a guy like that, anyone who doesn't see that immediately is a fool lol.

Blizzard should have known what they were getting themselves into~

Blizzard shouldn't pay pieces of shit like this guy to do a crappy job at least. There are many good musicians out there starving, while this guy gets money basically for sounding like a vacuum cleaner.

I think this is clearly an example of overly sensitive homosexuals playing the victim (and reinforcing an otherwise unfair stereotype) and sensationalizing use of a word that in some contexts can be construed as a homosexual slur. The same thing happened here, and does not seem to be an uncommon trend in the gay community. I think the key point we should observe is the changing social and contextual meaning of certain words previously considered to be degradational towards homosexuals, and how the frequent claims of discriminatory use are actually detremental to the efforts to reduce actual prejudice and discrimination in modern culture.

LOL people are being beheaded and burned alive and starving to death and generally persecuted for a litany of reasons all across the globe, and we're 15 pages offended about some WoW nerds using profanity at a concert.

Maybe you should complain to blizzard that cannibal corpse is a satan worshipping, profane and disgusting band and you are not happy that he performed at their event?

So I just watched that video and the very fact that someone is offended enough by a nerd's own enthusiasm and rage towards a specific race in WoW to make a thread about it and complain really made my day This is one of the things wrong with the internet.... everyone feels like they can complain about anything these days instead of just getting over it and moving on.

I don't play WoW or know what hte horde is but I like his passion for the game and I love metal. More power too him as far as I'm concerned.

The main reason that Cannibal Corpse is even famous is that they can be used as a "flagship" by people who always have and always will attack death metal, rap, or whatever sort of music that has lyrics about killing people and that kind of stuff. That and being in Ace Ventura, lol.
So when blizz hires a guy who makes a living writing songs about digging up rotting corpses and having sex with them, they really should know what they're doing. If they did, it's kinda cool for such a big company to hire someone like Corpsegrinder imo, and if they didn't know about it... Well, then they're just plain stupid. That's my opinion on this.

Fuck yeah, cannibal corpse warcraft!

Still waiting on the gay bashing... still nothing..... waiting......

watched the whole video, no anti gay comments anywhere, guys need to chill the fuck out instead of getting up in arms about nothing.

If you were offended by this video, stay off the internet. Go back to reading books without human interaction as your preferred pastime.

Saying things that may be offensive to homosexuals should not be regarded as "anti-gay" or "homophobic" in the first place.

I think we would be better off if people stopped actively trying to get offended by things and realized that the social stigma put on some words is nothing short of ridiculous.

This is true, don't get offended when terms are used like this:
+ Show Spoiler +





If you want to actually be useful, focus your efforts on condemning ACTUAL anti-gay and homophobic people. Don't just go after the words. They've lost so much of their actual meaning, you're just wasting your time. As for Blizzard's political correctness, whatever. What's political correctness ever done for anybody. It's only useful for people who wear top hats and monocles. Get with the times IMO.

Clearly a privileged class by virtue of sexual orientation.
A man can be imprisoned and fined for speaking against the King of Thailand.
A boy should be expelled and fined for assaulting a gay classmate (based on TL poll)
Ergo, gay men are on par with the King of Thailand in popular power.

Well since it seems people got in fights due to this joke you're either very ignorant or stupid to not see how someone getting beaten up/spaton/shoved because some stupid mmorpg facist people would take it seriously.

Is that so? You assume those two things:
1- "speaking against" = "assaulting"
2- "imprisoned and fined" = "expelled and fined"

Logic failure.


Note: A boy should be expelled and fined for assaulting a gay classmate (according to TL poll)
The results would be similar if his classmate hadn't been gay. Have you seen the video? I'm assuming people don't care that he's gay. The guy who assaulted him NEEDS to be expelled.

Nobody got in fights due to this joke you moron. People have been victimised elsewhere in their lifetime as a result of their sexual orientation, which is what the links describe, nobody has gone "Cannibal Corpse said some bad words, I'm going to go beat up a gay!".

Your post is possibly one of the worst and most ignorant IN this clusterfuck of a thread.
