They will be gettin' the full 12,000 pages so that they understand how much disconnected they are from the playerbase.

I think Frank Pearce will understand the extent of the disconnect when he wakes up and checks Twitter tomorrow. He really must have no idea what's going on.

You do realize the 22nd of April is Earth Day...

Not trying to defend him here but it's like he is really really passive aggressive with that post. He doesn't mention anything about private servers or Nostalrius...

Meh, I'd just ignore his tweet.. it's like a passive aggressive gay boy trying to start a fight with you and you've got the boxing gloves on and all they have is a feather in their hand that they're going to slap you with.

Yesterday was Earth day, so its debatable. From reading that tweet if it was that is a shot at us....its pretty pathetic. Its too weak and vague. In my opinion, I would have to say there is no relation so don't worry about it.

Well, it could be a co-incidence.

I am reminded however of Gandi's (purported) comment; "First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they attack you. Then you win."

However, it may also be in the end we simply need to write off Blizzard. If they really are that stupid, it won't be possible to reach them at all, and so then we simply have to make our own independent solution. This is possible, so Bliz being unreachable is not the end of the world. What would be ironic is that if in time it ended up with a higher pop count than the retail servers. At that point senior Bliz management should all resign on the basis of incompetence, but incompetent senior staff rarely resign :-)

Oh yeah sure pull that tactic on us. Blizzard wants poor people to have to eat paper in order to survive

One could take his comment a different way. If* he is indeed referring to how many pages it would take to print out our whole petition then hell, that could be a compliment, right? Maybe he knows how many people want this. Maybe it's not him holding this back. Maybe he's on our side. We don't know shit.
