I agree, and I think “I believe I can fly” achieve needs to be removed, because the dude that made it is a ped and is in jail.
Oh, and in light of everything blizz employees did recently, I think Swifty is owed an apology and needs to be returned to the game. He legit never even did anything.
Your name triggers me OP. My mother passed away several years ago due to complications from colorectal cancer and I was her caregiver.
With respect to my trauma and others who have been simarly traumatized, particularly over the past yeat and a half, I feel your name is in extremely poor taste with regards to anyone who has witnessed death as there is noting “cute” about it.
In fact, I believe your name is in such poor taste and disrespecful to the memory of anyone who has died that there is no other recourse than to simply and permanently ban you from all Blizzard franchises.
See how easily those tables get turned? Not such a good idea now, is it?
Why do people like you try to do things like this, pretending you have a point?
One has a very clear, societally understood inference, while the other is you pretending like you have a point. You don’t get to coopt the entirety of death as your argumentative plaything.
And you do not get to minimize my very real, and very deep seated trauma.
But my point still stands.
The acheievement is a throwback. Big deal. Just as OP’s name is no big deal.
But here you come, riding in on a white charger in your gleaming armor to whiteknight OP while minimizing someone else’s trauma.
It doesn’t work that way, friend. Being troll-triggered by an old achievement is ridiculous. And you took the bait and made yourself look like an absolute fool for it.
Isn’t this game meant to be inclusive to everyone? Shouldn’t we try to make it less offensive to get more to play? How does changing the achievement affect you negatively?
No. This is an old folks home for aging gamers. New people aren’t the future of this franchise. I will not compromise my sense of familiarity to make a handful of people feel more welcome.
things like this brings down the average IQ. it’s ridiculous. the whole phrase is nothing more than a play on words. it’s combining 2 popular ideals- the “bros b4 hos” mentality with “ho-ho-ho” from the jolly phrase from santa at christmas time.
it’s not even directed at calling anyone anything.
if this honestly offen[d]s you, you have bigger issues than being offended by seeing the word “ho”…
With the announcement of 9.1.5 coming in the Fall I believe now would be the perfect time to change the achievement. It’s the last patch of the year and the event for the achievement happens at the end.
