To play Devilā€™s advocate,he isnā€™t too far off YES there are some in the company who appear to not understand the heart of gaming but at the same time,a good number of the WoW community NAY the gaming community over time has become pretty vindictive and cruel. In this case,there have been people harassing Ysithens WANTING him to be fired and I personally hope karma bites those douche bags in the rear end as they wished for one of the best CMs to lose his livelihood and are relishing in it as we speak. Sad part is,anyone who draws their ire becomes a target and do end up getting driven away by these vengeful keyboard warriors so while I acknowledge corporate is a big contributor,some of the more venomous camp of the community are equally just as guilty.

May you return to us someday Caden/Ysithens or at least find greener pastures where you can continue living the dream! You will be missed by many and the opinions of those who treated you like garbage donā€™t and NEVER will matter.

This.

The one CM that actually showed great communication traits and actually had any kind of personality at all on these forums for as long as I can remember. I have never seen a CM that respected their position as much as Ythisens :cry:

Had the pleasure of communicating with Ythisens a couple times, Thank you sir :slight_smile:

Not surprising , had a feeling he was going to be let go when he pretty much stopped posting.

I just now found out about thisā€¦ Iā€™m so sorry Ythisens, its total bs. /hugs*

Itā€™s unfortunate because itā€™s consolidation of work which means more balancing the work by less workers. This inevitably means less for the customer as the worker can only do so much in a day unless they work longer days. This, however, would defeat the whole purpose of making cuts like these. It is sad most of all for those affected and ultimately the customer too.

Iā€™ve seen plenty of what Iā€™m sure were watcher non blue altsā€¦but this is the first time Iā€™m fairly certain Iā€™ve found a brack or possibly a kotick non blue alt.

Sadly, this is something that happens all too often.

One of the earliest voices giving the ā€œitā€™s been this bad since vanillaā€ line, I remember seeing him say it in some form time and time again as things got worse as bfa went on. I donā€™t know if it was an overly optimistic view of the company he worked for (which clearly proved false), some kind of inside info that things were going to get better for the players and for the emplyees (which definitely hasnā€™t proven to be true), or something elseā€¦but no matter what, that line ā€œthings have always been this bad, even since vanillaā€ kept being thrown out there.

No, things have not been this badā€¦because there was a time when the company actually cared about the people working for it, actually cared about the people who bought its products, and most importantly, cared about being able to look at themselves in the mirror each day with a clear conscience.

Why I think the only positive that can come out of this shake up, is that everyone sees this company for what it truly is and what it no longer is.

They no longer care about anything or anyone, despite all the flowery PR they spout through their various mouthpieces.

Maybe these execs should take care of their people.

Then their people will take care of the game.

Then they wonā€™t need golden parachutes because theyā€™ll actually be invested in something successful.

I didnā€™t hang out in ā€œloungeā€ and joke threads so I already forgot who he is.

He did his job fine, some people did not like his job but guess what there are people that think you are pretty bad at your job if you have a job. No, one is going to be loved 100%. No one is going to be perfect and for everyone one person that hated his ā€œsnarky commentsā€ there was one that loved him for posting what they were thinking.

People that get laid off are reaping the bad decisions up higher ups that get a golden parachute to soften the blow. The cue dramatic music tragic part of this is that people are not happy with the devs but their jobs are nice and safe. It is the people that have nothing to with game play issues/ concerns that are getting laid off.

We have posted in the same threads and most of those are joke threads as were your comments in them.

Completely agree with this. Blizzard, donā€™t get rid of people who are passionate about your game, you need them, they are your future.

When someone says that they ā€œjust lost their dream jobā€, chances are you just got rid of someone who should have been fostered in your organization.

Donā€™t worry.

They still have a CM who doesnā€™t tweet anything about Blizzard products unless itā€™s a huge release, and then asks his followers to watch him play GTA on Twitch.

Yee-frigginā€™-haw.

I would assume Bornakk is still here. Check the stickies in GD heā€™s been frequenting here for a little while.

Wait really?

But Lore is still here?
