Stop Listening to Ex Employees

Same reason they come to this cesspool, lol.

Quit making excuses.

At least this cesspool you can talk back to these people that make excuses of why not speak up and not be banned unlike Twitter.

Interesting to read the words of contrition from those who fostered (and profited from) that environment.

But if I were one of the victims, I’d remember what Tom Cruise said in Jerry Maguire.

You seem awfully sensitive in your replies, lol.

I’ll believe people who were actually there over ones trying to justify addiction.

It’s ok to keep playing the game. But even people who messed up (like Morhaime) aren’t even denying what took place. And there’s a reason Afrasiabi left in secret.

I’m taking a long break from WoW, because of the last two expacs, and continual controversies that they handle with the grace of Wile E. Coyote.

But it’s been hilarious to see people use both that this happens everywhere and these are just disgruntled ex-employees lying. When it can’t be both.

Do what works for you as far as continuing to play. But also push for changes within Blizz, the gaming industry and every other industry where this runs rampant.

Coming forward as an employee is a danger career move even if you are 100% justified and vindicated.

Actually this is a tiny part of it :roll_eyes: it’s almost like you should actually read the document with the details of a 2 year investigation behind it.

Lol

I did. Did you read past that?

I doubt it! Here I’ll help you!

I read the document, I believe it 100% but I don’t think the people coming out admitting it all now deserve a pass. How do I end this…

Oh Lol!

It’s not only harassment. It’s job opportunities, and equal pay for the same work. Apparently from the legal documents reviewed in front of me on a lawyers u-tube link, the primary focus seems to be around massive pay differences and well, going into work drunk never turns out good for anyone.

The frat boy behavior can be written off to a few members being jerks. However if they can prove that the Blizzard system is set up to treat the genders and races differently then the state of California has a really good case.

That coupled with Blizzard public statement that basically aimed a gun at their own foot.

The title of the post is literally, “Stop Listening to Ex Employees”. Hey OP, there is a reason why these ex employees left, it might be a long shot, but one of their reasons could be from the same allegations that the state is currently suing Blizzard for. Just a guess though. :thinking:

Not disagreeing. But the tweets I have seen seem to focus on the frat boy culture not the pay.

I hope they clean house properly, not another Band-Aid fix.

But you’re portraying as if most people are saying ex employees are the only thing giving this credence. Which is simply not true.

Like this is just a pointless and misleading statement.

And if you look lots of people are actually against some of the comments made by ex employees.

Lastly. Some ex employees actually made complains if you read their statements. Then they got ignored, covered up and black balled. So they left. I am sure they did their best and that’s probably why there has been a 3 year investigation.

Your post honestly doesn’t have much point and comes off way too defensive of Blizzard.

I should change the title.

I assume people actually read the post. I guess that is not longer expected.

Title is enough to get well people like you. Take a moment read my take. You aren’t the first and won’t be the last.

I am on your side, just not getting why these past employees are getting a pass and applauded for coming forward in the public forum rather than going to the State.

Sadly unless they have a angry Karen with a bat behind them as they work 24/7 it will most likely be a band-aid fix.

You assume a lot from strangers on the Internet. First time here?

If no money is involved it might convince me 100 percent. If they are asking for 500 million then money could be the motivation.

Yeah definitely is oh 236 post alt!

Tell me your main, come on…

It’s funny you have this take when you posted this without reading anything:

You didn’t read anything and went off a title. I am sorry that me pointing that out bothers you so much! I won’t do it again, but would help if I knew your main…

Oh, I read your post, I actually already replied to this thread multiple times. I just don’t like click bait headlines and don’t mind calling them out. :slightly_smiling_face:
