Blizz, Hong Kong, Freedom of speech, lets have an Adult discussion

So what that means is that you’re OK with human suffering. Essentially you’re just admitting to being a horrible person.

America may have its problems, but that doesn’t mean we can’t try and help others as well as try and fix our own stuff. They aren’t mutually exclusive goals. You can’t blame us for the actions taken by our politicians before which we were even born or able to vote.

$56 on sept 10th to $53 dollars today on Oct 10th isn’t what those who play the stock market would call “down”, that’s within normal daily fluctuation levels. You can’t just pay attention to the pretty graph, you need to hover your mouse over the line to see the $$ amount and see how much it changed over the month to realize it didn’t really change at all, furthermore you need to expand the scope of the graph to realize that Blizzard is actually up overall, as for example, back in June, their stocks were down in the low $40 range… so overall they are in a high period currently and are still trending upward.

I guess you dont do maths very well do you?

3 dollars per share is more than 4% loss in valuation for ATVI

I’m going to cancel sub based on what they do at blizzcon. Im already contacting my congressmen about this. I feel that my accounts existence adds some weight to the point because its possible to see how long I’ve supported them. This whole situation is sudden. Bliz has inadvertantly involved its playerbase in a real war and puts all of us in a political hot seat. This is the fault of bliz, but it will also be the fault of the players if we do not take some form of action.

Edit: writing from phone. Pardon all the edits

No you are just ignorant. You are literally supporting western imperialism by doing all this crap. So how are you going to better America while still furthering imperialist agendas? Its seriously scary how little you Americans actually know about what your own government is doing because you guys learn nothing in school it seems. You all learn your own history all powdered up with flowers and perfume while the truth is your nation is rotten to the core and the most evil thing on this planet.

Yep. The US has done some terrible things. That’s not even in question.

Worst in the world for human suffering? Not even close. People literally risk their lives on a daily basis to get here.

Thanks for my daily dose of hyperbole though.
:beers:

i guess you dont stock market very well do you?

up overall 10-15 dollars per share compared to previous quarter is a big gain in valuation for ATVI.

company revenues are based on quarterly earnings and activities over these quarters. so unless a stock nosedives or crashes, a few dollars fluctuation over daily isn’t something to worry about or care about, as ATVI’s stock shows it goes up and down sporadically in the 50-55 dollar range.

what you really should be looking at is the intraday and todays open. Looks like we have a falling knife.

Down more than half a dollar per share in the first ten minutes of trading

still has a way to go to be of any concern, that 1/2 dollar needs to instead be 10 dollars, Q2-Q3 numbers.

you cant ignore the low provided with the graph:
52-wk low 39.85

And right there show the reason hanging up Blizzard won’t effect them as much as you think it would…half your phone is made in China and or Taiwan…

It seems to me like you are intentionally trying to get people to delete their accounts for the lulz.

just a side note, not agreeing with you or the individual you’re responding too… but it just bugs when when people use the claim/argument, “if america’s so bad, then why is everyone trying to get in”… you have to realize the truth that America isn’t the only country with high immigration… Russia, Germany, and even China itself have high immigration into their respective countries… For example in 2016 The U.S. accepted 1,183,500 permanent migrants, while the small country of Germany accepted 1,051,000… so on a % per population or % per landmass, Germany blows the U.S. out of the water on both for the amount of immigration they deal with.

And believe it or not, but China has high immigration from Southern Asian countries, Africa, and other places. Also worth noting, China has the largest black community in all of Asia.

Again you don’t do maths very well.

The Open Market cap was $40,460,618,335 The current Market cap is $40,276,532,109 doing the math gives us a loss of $184,086,226 in just under half an hour of trading.

I’d call that significant

clearly you haven’t a clue if you’re judging blizzard’s stock price on a day against day basis, rather than against quarterly where it matters.

also btw since you seem adamant at minute by minute, at this moment, their stock is trending back upwards as the days trades go on, but this is of little to no relevance or care to anyone who knows how the stock market works.

Well, some people are taking it to extremes. An extreme tool exists for them to really show their disgust.

Thats pretty funny.

turns out those posts were fake, as numerous individuals pointed out they were able to set those battle tags, etc. and how users can cancel their own account deletion tickets.

I read through a bunch of your posts and I would say that you are definitely baiting people. You say that you are from Iowa, and so am I, but I would definitely not consider you to be Iowa nice.

The entire reason trump is in a trade war is that the Economic powers act doesnt give any authority over the business activities of US companies even if they are becoming part of a larger national security threat. Congress needs to expand on that act. Yes, subversive behavior by a foreign power to influence a US company is a national security concern.

Where at in Iowa?
