Seriously, how greedy can you get?

2018 was literally the most PROFITABLE YEAR IN ACTI-BLIZZ HISTORY.

And they fired our CM because they just want more.

They definitely overpaid to get someone for a job that people would be willing to do for far less.

They did not give 15 million dollars to anyone.

Why are people obsessed with spreading this lie. It has to be on purpose at this point.

1m cash and the rest in company assets if done well.

So they did but, it’s not directly handed to them. Still overpaid.

3.2 million in cash IIRC, the rest were stock options available after 2020 or some such.

Yeah I just saw his tweet. Most depressing thing I’ve read all day.

Bliz, it’s really time to become your own company again.

Our cm? the only replies i remember from this guy were “snarky” which would have resulted in HR consultation or retraining from anybody talking to customers, let alone putting it in writing, in most service industry jobs. I remember him for being pretty rude. Maybe he can learn to code now and start his own game company and be a jerk to the people on those forums.

15m in both cash and stock. The stock can be sold for cash. So yes they gave him 15m worth of stuff.

So much for additional communication. That was pretty much Ythisens’ job.
