The one where you missed the fact that a product made by Blizzard was asked to also stop talking about a bear by the Chinese government just like how they made their citizens?

Blizzard aids Belgium government in suppression of their citizens by banning lootboxes many willingly bought. Evil.

I don’t know that Blizz speech about Winnie the pooh was stopped only their customers. Who were sold out to the government, real brave and praiseworthy.

“Making a change to a system that was anti-consumer to begin with is totally the same as banning your customers for saying no-no words the government doesn’t like”. It’s not like Blizz backed down from that in all territories now with making all skins purchasable with gems.

But I guess you should have the freedom of being duped by a corporation. So I’ll concede that to you.

Belgium said so. Many others said so. Many didnt agree with that at all. Still, Belgium made the law and Blizzard as a company adjusted to local law. Same case.

Dont even try to ridicule me kid if you post crap like Blizzard “aiding” Chinese government. Keep living in you perfect world, in your moms basement.

Okay, now did Belgium force Blizz to ban anyone that had bought or wanted to buy them?

I just wanted to keep this.

The chip on that guys shoulder must be as big as a city cause Pooh is so cute! You have to take it and run with it! Not make it an high insult so people will laugh at you harder xD
It’s too late now but good I like that I can laugh even harder at him. :bear:

It’s not their fault the fact a country run by dictatorship laws continuously making some of the most embarrassing bans and enforcement, also more similar nonsense of this will come sooner or later and Blizzard and other many companies that you probably respect to an extent are required to follow those rules just to keep their business running in that area.

I don’t respect any company. They are companies I don’t purchase or consume anything that I cannot take or leave, I’m not emotionally attached to them.

Blizzard isn’t aiding China. That implies Blizzard has any agency over this. China is gonna ban stupid crap regardless of Blizzard’s input. Blizzard is aiding themselves.

Edit: For the record, I’m disagreeing with you. Your argument is fundamentally stupid. I guess I said a vaguely anti-Blizzard thing maybe though? Thanks for the thumbs up, regardless.

People were making fun of China’s President, Xi Jinping, by comparing him to Winne the Pooh.

Look up “Xi Jinping Winnie the Pooh” if you want to know more.

I realize this, I didn’t know people read so much into likes. I liked Wombat’s post about calling me a basement dweller too. Likes mean nothing.

I dont really understand how else the concept of law could be new to you

Who’s talking about law? I just think it’s a betrayal of their consumer. I don’t care what the law there is or how many other people engage in it.

For the record have at insulting me. It’s the internet I’m not gonna report you. No hard feelings man.

This is hilarious lol the guy clearly cant take Joke lol

Hence my comment on despots and their wet-tissue-paper egos. This is something most 12 year olds would probably brush off, but these guys are so sensitive they throw people in jail for it.

I mean we all agree it’s a ridiculous rule based off nothing more than a dictator’s super-fragile ego, unfortunatly Blizzard HAVE to go along with it if they want their games to carry on being sold in China.

If Blizzard tried to ‘take a stand’ against this rule, all it would do is mean innocent chinese players can’t play their games.
