lol Blizzard sucks ass at PR

There is something we call the Streisand Effect - in short, it had to do with an unflattering photo of Barbra Streisand which got out onto the wild west of the early internet. In trying to suppress the photograph, her agents unintentionally ended up guaranteeing its spread onto the internet, as people passed it around widely however they could ahead of any takedown attempts, and it all started with them going after one guy.

Blizzard basically dropped the hammer on 100,000 people, all at once, and what we're witnessing, I think, is seeing the Streisand Effect blown up to 100,000 times the size we usually do. I think Blizzard has absolutely no idea what it's started here and are going to come to sorely regret it.

JonTron, Chance and Crendor now.

If more people with a big following get into this we might see a response. Be sure to tweet/e-mail/whatever your favorite "internet celebs".

What us it a plebbit? Pardon my English.

I know Jontron. Glad he is on the topic.

Heal vs Babyface also talked about the shutdown.

This could be the explosion we needed to have this all blow up in Blizzard's face and force their hand on making official Vanilla servers.

It is pretty sick!

This guy has a huge following and is pretty influential in the gaming industry nowadays. At least in the media aspect of it. Him helping our cause is a huge boost to us.

TB has been a bit of a prat before; he sided with Bethesda during the Paid Mod Workshop fiasco and this does kind of seem like the thing he'd side with Blizzard on.
