Diablo community manager disappeared?

PezRadar. His Instagram and Twitter accounts have both been removed. Anyone know what the deal is?

That doesn’t sound good.

I’d be surprised if anyone did, considering how much we’re kept in the dark.

That’s true. Hope he’s alright. The other day he tweeted about having a hard time and was thankful for friends. This industry is brutal nowadays.

Maybe he was tired of having to deal with stupid people every day. Just look at how some of the people on the forums act. I told him he would need to have thick skin. When ignorant people attack you personally for things that are not in your control it must get old really fast. If he is gone, I wish him all the best, I for one liked him.

There is no information at this time. There are certainly plenty of valid and positive reasons to ditch Social Media so I am going to reserve comment on it and not panic.

I don’t have any public social media either. Nothing. I only interact here. It has saved me from a LOT of drama.

Hope he does only take a break off from social media.

Someone check his linkedin profile. Do i need to figure out everything or what lol

He was so fond of blocking everybody, he ultimately blocked himself

You mean that it allowed you to post whatever you want knowing that moderation is on your side and will protect you from any backlash

Smart kitty!
I am a smart papa bear as well, no social media at all ever except this D3 forum.
It’s as close as I come to the real thing.

If PezRadar is gone from Acti-Blizz then we are all that much closer to not playing any more Acti-Blizz games too.

Seriously, with Putin attempting to start WWIII and kill as many innocent people as possible per hour it is so hard for me to play games.

I have to ask, would you genuinely not purchase a game because of who is / isn’t the company’s Community Manager? I care about whether a game’s good or not, not who’s got a fancy colour on the forums. Whether he’s gone or not has absolutely no influence on whether I’d buy D4.

Everything the dude seem to be saying is overreaction
Especially his political non-sense

If the community manager is where you draw the line… there a problem lol

He never blocked me, but one time he did get a little …rude…with me. Anyway, keep in mind the Hooley just quit as well (reason: unknown) and maybe Blizzard doubled his workload or something. Who knows. We’ll find out.

Or not, this is Diablo.

Update from Reddit. He is on vacation and also taking a social media break. The removed accounts were his personal accounts, not work accounts.

I’m ok! Thanks for checking. I’m a huge advocate for mental health and sometimes you just need to breakaway. Disabling keeps me for checking and I have the next few days off so it helped me here as I had a good amount of stuff that’s been compounded over the last few weeks.

Good to know I like the guy. Thanks for the update MissC. Adam if you are reading the forum hang in there. Don’t let dimwits get under your skin. Take care of yourself first because we will always have fools with us.

That’s not the reason at all and you know it.

The water under the bridge has shown us, or the very least me, the disgust with Acti-Blizzard company and what it stands for.

This is the reason.
I stop coming over to your house to play when the neighborhood sees your father is an axe murder or worse.
