Lol it's just a cheeky joke on blizzard's part
I really am dumbfounded at the amount of people who get so easily upset online.
Can we get Torbjorn and Bastions gg or such comments filtered? Add the end of every game they swap to them at the end and go GG while I'm just thinking "How salty are you that you had to swap and either lost or barely won because you swapped last moment and plowed people down before they could adjust"
Leavers in ranked and people that say "GG EZ" should have all their sound effects replaced with Tracer saying "Cheers luv, the cavalry is here" and if they disable the sound they'll get the face of Tracer with the phrase in giant letters over their screen instead.
Blizzard is really going to the extremes.
No "Global" chat on Heroes of the Storm matches (can't talk to enemy team), to now replacing 'gg ez' with random sentences...
Let people say whatever they want... if they go to extremes and are abusive\offensive, report function and mute\silence\ban them, whatever... but this is just way too silly.
Also, this is just silly. People will just say gg easy or ggez , or anything similar to it... this literally does nothing.
The truly ironic thing is that all these people complaining about "hugbox" types crying about their feels and making this change happen are themselves complaining that they no longer have THEIR hugbox, and THEIR feels are hurt by this.
Eh, I don't think that's the case. There's a lot of people who aren't losing any sleep over it but detest the idea of needless censorship and speak out against it when they can.
The hilarious thing about all this is when folks only pull this two-sided coin when the other complains.
-A: Horsemint is bad
-B: boo! stop with the feels
-A: shut up you hate-filled pathetic loser.
-B: Sensorship is bad
-A: You're upset that we were upset. One coin to rule them all.
It's fascinating that "you're as bad as we are" is a rhetorical defense.
Coming up next in blizzard games, digital mommy and daddy telling you what you can and can't do.
This is just sad.
I think it's kinda funny. If you're butthurt over it, you are making a big deal out of something incredibly minor.
Went to check PTR, and people kept spamming it over and over during match - more annoying than simple "GG ez" at end of round.
No matter what people are going to say something along the lines of GGEZ. I think it's pointless to try and change certain phrases, it just leads to new phrases. I get it blizzard wanted to have fun with those who say GG EZ but meh still think it was pointless.
