His statement basically said two things:
Until we solve our problems, dev is frozen.
If you got a problem with that, you're part of the problem.
The problem isn't that they freeze, the problem is that all who complain because they have certain expectations about the return of their spendings are framed as part of the problem. That's inane.
And I certainly don't enjoy being called names by developers who cry wolf now after being years part of what apparently is an openly toxic environment. Unless you've spent all your time as a hermit developer there's isn't a chance in hell you didn't know how your peers behave.
You know what would have been better?
Hi guys, were freezing development until we solve our issues. We suggest you also freeze your sub until blizzard finally implements actual changes. Support us!
Boy he would have gathered so many followers. But he chose the toxic approach instead, shaming everyone around him. Go figure
