I know most people here are terribly dumb, that's the burden of playing a MMO. But you understand that what you say not only makes no sense but is illegal ? You can't lie to your shareholders. It's really not in their interest to try something like that, especially with how good their results are. No point into creating a even bigger success than what they produced.

But I understand you're salty and those results don't fit into your "blizzard is dying" narrative.

Huhh? Apart from true or not, where have you been in the last few decades?

"Chevron CEO and Board Confronted for Lying To Shareholders, SEC and Public at Annual Shareholder Meeting"

"SEC Going After Bank of America For Lying to Shareholders, Again"

"Yelp Sued By Shareholders For Lying About Suppressing Bad Reviews In Exchange For Cash"

"Toshiba shareholders accuse group of ‘chronic culture of lying’"

"Nolan Watson – Mining CEOs need to stop LYING to shareholders"

"Herbalife: Now It's The Shareholders' Turn To Feel Cheated"

Just a few examples from the last 10 years after a little search.....

Ofc they wouldn't realy lie. But they can obfuscate and embellish. Cherry-pick favorable metrics, highlight a few favorable details and bury less pretty things in aggregate numbers. The facts are the facts, but you can own and lead the story[

often time full transparency is also not in their interest, nor in that of their shareholders.

Since I'm only getting a 503 error, what's the price on the Sylvanas statue that I won't be buying since I'm sure I can't afford it but still want to know anyway?

I will be really disappointed if Golden BSes that the other races on the Horde side willingly go along with Sylvanas attacking Stormwind if she does come round to it. The Orcs, Tauren, Trolls, Goblins, Blood Elves and Panderan have had fuck all reason to attack the Alliance this expansion (and WoD for that matter was also similar weakass reasoning: The heads of our camp said we should fight the other guys roving around this isle because we got here first and they can't be trusted) not to mention the fight is really between Genn and Sylvanas and their loyalists. I mean it just seems odd that out of nowhere that she wants to attack Stormwind suddenly when she's been hellbent on securing the North of the Eastern Kingdoms and finding something to help her people's state for like the last four-five expansions.

Next up is the trans of the dark below... (mentally ill)

Take your shit back to /r/TheRedPill or whatever women hating pit you crawled out of.

[frozenembers]

wow literally nothing on the schedule for Diablo, that's rough to see, even more so with there being a panel for "Blizzard Social - What's Next"

they said a while back there really wouldnt be anything for diablo. my personal opinion is because they are working on diablo 4 and dont have it in a place that they want to share it yet.

I do wish they would have stuck with their goal of 2 xpacs for d3 though. It's also my opinion that we will get another hero pack for d3, and it will be druid.

Where is the damn timer ? Why you disabled this ?

[Celista]

I love Sylvanas, she's my favorite character in game. But where the hell am I going to put an 18" statue? And for $350...not a totally unreasonable price but no thanks.

Thanks for posting this, makes me feel better when I read garbage from people like the guy you quoted.

No shit ? You can't physically block them from lying ? Nice brain usage captain Obvious

Still illegal and they get caught. Really no point to do it for blizzard.

It's $350 US.

[Faroth]

It's $350 US.

Thanks!

Honestly not horrible. I've bought a few statues not too far under that in the past.

If I were still as devoted to WoW as I once was, despite not being a Horde player, I'd probably have considered this once upon a time.
