Ythisens, you WILL be missed

So they fire the one guy that actually tried to talk to us? I guess we know where we stand with Blizzard.

If you thought we had bad communication before I can only imagine what’s going to happen now.

Disgusting of them to do this garbage. I’ve honestly lost all faith in blizzard now, this game isn’t “for the players” anymore, long since it was that.

Yes.

Tunnel vision development now. Dark days ahead for Blizzard gaming in general and more specifically for WoW. :frowning:

It is not fair to have this happen to somebody who was one of the best CMs I have seen across multiple games. We will be lucky to get any communication at all now that he is gone. The Yak shall be missed and I wish you the best.

That Holy Yak cared more about players than the rest of the dev team combined. Sad but true. :frowning:

Rip Ythisens and Rip blizzard slowly being devoured by the monster that is Activision.

:disappointed: Ythisens, I’m sorry to hear about your situation, I will miss you here on the forums, you were a great CM.

TBF, Ythisens had moved onto mostly the Paladin and Classic forums lately, and Bornakk has been the one frequently posting in GD. So unless Bornakk was also let go today, the little communication we do get here in GD should continue.

Bornakk does seem to lack Ythisen’s penchant for snark, which I will miss.

I’ve been through layoffs before. It’s tough, especially if it is a job you really liked and been at for a while. Ythisens, so sorry about your layoff and I wish you all the best.

We’ll miss you Yth.

This one hurts. I liked the Yak a lot. I felt like they actually engaged with us, even on a base level. Sad day.

Maybe they’re giving up on improving communication and going all-in on not communicating at all.
