Good. Ideally we should just stop playing until some serious internal changes happen.

Be a Champ, a Leader, not a chump. Boycott them for the rest of your living breathing life.

The forum is one of the most efficient means of reaching others who consume blizzard products.
Essentially you just mocked a picket line in front of a business. “You couldn’t resist standing in front of the store with signs?”

I would mock those people, they are giving that business press, and all press is good press.
How much do you want to bet player interest has gone up since this controversy started?

i hate to say it, actually no i dont. slacktivism… this is worse then the kony stuff because at least those people pretended they were gonna protest kony for longer than a day, this is just saying “im not gonna play some games for a day” okay you probably have a full steam library and youtube/netflix/hulu/spotify to use instead.
what ever happened to making a sign and going outside when you wanted to boycott something

Boycotting something isn’t the same as protesting something. Generally I agree with the most base idea behind this though. If you want to boycott you should actually boycott instead of just logging off for a day; and it shouldn’t be for poor reasons like “I want to hurt Blizzard financially”. It should be because you find the behavior morally wrong and feel wrong supporting a company engaging in it.

Meh, no thanks, I’m good. I think I’ll play my favorite game in my free time because it’s what I like to do.
Edit: in my everyday life I treat people of all sexes, genders, creeds, sexualities, races, nationalities, etc. with respect, care, and genuine equality. I’m not going to punish myself for the transgressions of others. I understand the point of what you’re trying to do here, but I have a limited amount of me time and I’m not giving that up because others were bad people

Agree.
But imagine checking ttv and seeing “unranked to GM” content.
And many of us are logged in by browser cache. My crusade today, in between IRL productive work, is making sure ppl boycott OW streamers and making sure the streamers swap to other content (for at least just today).
One of the best ownings I’ve ever seen on these forums.

Personally I’m boycotting until I’m satisfied major changes have been made and things will improve. One day is not enough. This kind of thing hits me particularly hard, because I have multiple family members including my wife who work in the game industry.
