Apparently Blizzard doesn't know how to pear down their operations to make them cost-effective enough to run a server members of the public can run for a grand a month. They should really let the Nost devs teach them how to run their own game.


This flaw is common to all gigantic structure...
A small cap knows how to do something for 1$, it grows up (eventually with buying other smal companies doing the same thing) and then can do it for 0.5$...
Time goes, the company gets bigger and bigger.
Now it's gigantic and then it costs 2$ to do the thing it could do for 1$ when it was small...
Mostly cause of the number of persons (indirectly) involved..... Means it still could cost 1$ or even 0.5$ to do it but as the company gets bigger indirects costs are added.... (things the small didn't have like more executives, dedicated services for employees and many other things)
Known rule of economics in administrations....

That may be, I don't know. I'm not a dev or anything. On the surface it seems counter-intuitive to the layperson.

They're a video game company. Something is always in the works, or else they would go out of business. This is just talk.

WE DID THIS. It was our work reflecting in Blizzard's stock price. Make the price of their stock continue to drop and they will HAVE to talk to us. Keep demanding MM reply to us. We will solve this problem and we will win this.

Re-post this meme everywhere: https://memegenerator.net/instance2/5211257

For Nostalrius!

Lmao, their stocks fluctuate up and down by that amount literally multiple times aday, it's nothing noteworthy at all.

Don't be a fag Bilb.

Also another guy in my guild called Blizz and he said Blizz is gunna release at least something or other.

"Iain Meyer: That he understood my situation, that it felt like someone just banned my live WoW Account. But to know that there is some changes coming in the future that will let players return to previous expac content. That he overheard rumors of the development of Old Expansion Servers; to allow players a glimpse of content, leveling, talent and pvp design of expansions prior to the ones they started in."
