Ythisens, you WILL be missed

He was the only employee at Blizzard that felt real. That really got us.

Such a huge loss for both us and this company. I don’t know if I can get over this… This may be the actual thing that makes me withdraw from their games.

Will gladly trade Lore for Ythisens any day of the week.

NO! NO! NO! I can’t believe it! NOT YTHISENS!!!

Of all the things Blizzard has done, this is the one that really makes me wonder if it’s not time to find something else to do in my free time. I sincerely am questioning why I’m supporting this company any more.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO D:

I hope Acti-Blizzard can do something to get back on track and you have the chance to return. Sucks that he lost his dream job and that he did pretty good job at it communicating. We salute you Goat Lord. :disappointed_relieved:7

Now none of us are happy and the Blizzard universe is burning down around us. What a great year 2019 has been.

Yeah, this is stupid. Lay off Lore, the guy that barely posts and barely seems to care about the game. We need Ythisens. The dude actually cares about the game and engaging with the community. Get your damn heads out of your asses. You’re literally running the game into the game. I wish I could use more colorful language because I’m livid, but apparently the forums don’t allow it.

“We promise to make communication a priority” - Blizz
“Hey, what if we fire the most engaged and well liked CM” - also Blizz

We must remember the Golden Yak. The spirt of the Golden yak will be with us forever and ever!

I just read that and I must say I don’t really like it. I understand restructuring Blizzard but it looks like if you are not a dev your job is not safe. This line has struck me particularly hard.

As difficult as some of these organizational changes are, I am confident in Blizzard’s future and we will continue working hard to live up to not only our mission, but your expectations. We look forward to sharing everything with you when it’s ready.

My removing a CM that was willing to deal with the community they have already failed in meeting my expectations. I expected Blizzard to understand how important Blues are to the community. Whether we love them or hate them, they are our life line to devs.

CM: “They say Blizzard isn’t listening to them anymore.”
Exec: “Hmm… I know what to do to keep from hearing anything like that again.”
CM: “Allow us to share more freely with the players so they don’t feel like they’re being kept in the dark?”
Execs: “Nope. You’re fired. Now I won’t have to hear anything the players say!”

Way to go, Blizz. Dig the hole deeper.

Sucks that Yth had to be in the chopping block for these goons.

Didn’t always agree with Yth, but this is just absolute crap.

Good luck to you.
