Instead of you mods listening to the massive amounts of complaints which, if I were a betting man, of which I am, is NOT the majority, why not create an actual official voting system BEFORE YOU IMPLEMENT THESE DECISIONS THAT AFFECT THE GAME FUNDAMENTALLY?
Like, seriously?
If the votes were cast and the decision was made and the idea turned out to be the lamest, dumbest mistake ever, than the Player base is to truly blame instead of YOU DEVS TAKING ALL THE HEAT.
Hero bans is another one of those mistakes you’re making.

Devs have overturned their decisions that were mistakes before, they need to do it again with hero bans. Rise up, stand and fight for your gameplay rights.
Voting yes to hero bans is forfeiting your freedom to play the game however you want to and it goes against the originality and identity of Overwatch.
Also, if you are going to let players vote TO BAN characters, shouldn’t those of us who do not want characters banned be able to vote TO NOT BAN character x?
If we are going to be stuck with this terrible ban system, it’d be equitable and fair to have our stance on the matter influence the overall team results
Ie we should be able to at mimimum vote for 3 characters to protect, with out vote counting for -7, -5, and -3 votes, same as the weight those in favor of hero bans get
have been disproven, despite the claims of a few folks that they have been
Also: player rights do exist. They are granted upon agreeing to the terms and rules of the game. This is and always has been the case with OW despite the claims of others that a player signs their rights away when doing so
None of the claims being made have been proven or even provided any form of support for.
Also: the “rights” you have are not rights, they are privileges given to you once you agreed to follow the rules and changes what blizz decides to make. Regardless of what they are. And blizz has the right to revoke your privileges to play their title. If it was a “right” as you say then it could not be taken away. But blizz is a private company that controls who can and does use their product.
Please stop spreading misinformation Megadodo. It is considered harassment and shows a bad actor.
When there are issues that they want the player bases opinion they should 100% force people to a vote screen when they load the game. Gives everyone the chance to have their say.
But, you are right that, if the forums isn’t the majority. It never has been, never will be. The whole 6v6 cluster fudge should show people that. It can be “popular” on the forums, by the majority are silent, and they vote with their play time.
