    Seems like a lot of long-time folks have been leaving lately. Hope that's not something to be worried about...

    Kripp painful to watch? He's probably one of the least obnoxious streamers around.

    Also who is Olivia Grace? Or rather what was her occupation at Blizzard, anyone know?

    So the coaster is reversible. The horde side has horde red. The alliance side has alliance blue. Oh wait, the alliance side has neon yellow. LOL

    WTF? I'm just hearing about this. Anyone that finds "Tyrande's silence" sexist shouldn't be aloud to interact with functioning adults.

    ....I hope they offer it for virtual tickets again.....

    Didn't even know who Olivia Grace was. *shrug*

    CMs have always had pretty high turnover since there's not much room for advancement and the community is toxic, so Rygarius leaving was no surprise.

    Micky Neilson left because he wants to be a novelist and he's still working as a freelancer for Blizzard.

    Who was the other guy who recently left? Jay Wilson? The community hated his guts anyway, deserving or not.

    Nevermind that between Overwatch and Hearthstone, Blizzard's looking at higher profits than they've had in years. It's not like it's a sinking ship; far from it. I've even heard rumblings from people close to the source that active subscribers are already starting to climb back up towards pre-WoD levels (not that they'll report the numbers).

    It would be nice if Blizzard were to have some shows outside of USA, like in the past the WWI was fun and it was touring the world, kind of give the people of the rest of the world a chanse to attend, since going to CA can be extremely expensive for the fan.
