Any owner of SC2 game reserves a right to be unhappy with the product's support and to be vocal about it. Whats wrong with wanting someone to get fired? its just an opinion of one individual that person in charge doesn't fit the job. However outright bashing, smth like "DK is a stupid fuck, and turned starcraft 2 into a shit" is ofc too far since its personal.

His name has got a ring to it, almost sounds like David Kim.

So if someone had to read the comments stating how eagerly people want them fired, that still isn't personal? I would feel offended tbh.

Because not alot of people enjoy losing their job and having an uncertain financial situation for their family? "What's wrong with wanting someone to get fired" Really listen to yourselves some times, unless the person is an immoral criminal this is over the line.

I doubt Blizzard or another company or site would dare, but it would be pretty amusing if this April 1st, someone either used the headline
"Blizzard fires community"
or if Blizzard used
"David Kim let go" followed by the body of the text saying "Just joking",

hahahahaha...
read between the lines guy... David Kim is climbing the corporate ladder within Blizzard.
and Dustin Browder has been promoted to VP.

the powers that be within Blizz think guys at the top of the SC2 team did a great job.

unfortunately, none of the junior game designers here on TL.Net are billionaires. so they can't bankroll 6 year dev cycles.

All these people take all these shots at Browder and Kim...
and no one has the balls to take a shot at Morhaime. The guy in charge of all these guys.

Relocation != Laying off staff.

But, Hearthstone, SC2 and Heroes community got to go hand in hand for the sake of Blizzard.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

If you're not ready to be offended on the internet, you might not want to go on the internet.
If all men were created equal there would be no reason to declare it.

When you say you want someone fired over balance in a video game, it makes you look heartless and entitled.

I support SC2 with my hard earned money because Browder et al have earned it with their competence and hard work.
I trade my effort for the product of the effort of others.

i trashed C&C:Generals2,
hard.

Victory Games was shut down because the game was crap and the developers didn't know what they were doing.
the few really good employees at VG are already employed elsewhere ( including 1 guy now at Blizz)...because the uber talented in a 1st world country always have a job some where for them.

the loafers and morons ... well... they'll be relying on the social safety net like all the other morons and loafers.

welcome to the free market system, guy.
communism died in 1989.

the minute Blizzard starts to suck like EA is the minute i stop giving them my money.
if that means some guys who work their get fired and can't pay their bills and lose their health insurance, well too bad for them.
so far Blizz has earned every nickel i've ever spent on them.
