Why is being Blizzard being so ******* GAY?Follow

Yea I agree let's also talk about the issues in the school cafeteria lunch WE GOT TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE RIGHT AWAY TO THE PRINCIPAL!

Fully agree..

Whenever someone post something complaining about Blizzard's stupidity of having the server regionalisation crap, Many people from NA (obviously, it wont affect them..) will come and talk crap or say that the policy is good..

I would like to ask you to spare a thought for others from other regions..

*cough* I'm ******* gay and that ******* offends me.

I hope as many countries that have a player base get servers, or get access to servers as near as possible. Hey the bigger the community can get the better I always say.

This issue (although it doesn't affect me) would be near the top (if not top) question in need of a REAL answer. I know that all the info will come when Blizzard is ready to say it.

I just hate getting my hopes up when reading the offical forums and seeing a good question get a standard answer of "no offical statement yet".

You sure about this?

*sigh* Please read up on the region server issue and lets cut down on topics with such titles as this one. Seriously, if you expect to be heard, at least come off with a little bit more respect. Rate down.

Seifer, seriously, calm down. You are getting angry at a game that has yet to be release. Makes any sense? I think not.

When the game goes gold then I'm sure Blizzard will be able to provide more info. Until then, cool your jets and play something else.

Server Regionalization is a good thing.

Forced to play on those servers is a bad thing.


Having regional/timezone servers is good because it allows you to hire support staff that is actually around during the peak times of those servers. Events on those servers are at peak time for that area. Maintenance will happen at peak time in those areas.

And most importantly, the player base is for the most part in the same area and have same hours. There were alot of times that I'd stay up to 2 in the morning doing a mission in FFXI because we started it at 12, but it was only like 9 for the majority of the people because they were west coast and i was east coast.

FFXI's servers were all japan based, that meant that maintenance was not during Japan peak time, it ended up happening during NA peak playing time.

Being forced to play a certain region is bad. If Korean players want to play on a US East server, it's their choice and they willingly accept the consequances of doing that. Different maintenance time, playing hours then others.

Let people play the server they want, knowing the hours may be different.


Take a look at Ultima Online. They have time zone/region based servers, but can play on any one you want.

It works out great.

Thats how they get their parents to buy them gifts!

Perhaps instead of calling a company "@#%^ing gay" and attacking it when you have no information whatsoever to back up your rant/attack/argument, you could possibly just wait and see what happens after the game itself is released? If they have reasons for wanting to keep the CB/ST/OB in America, then that is their perogative. I'm sure when they release the game, you will know.

Also, on a tangent here, calling something gay when used in an insulting/condecending manner is generally going to only get you negative comments. Not only that, it's disrespectful and bigoted and makes implications and so on and so forth... you could (and have) offended someone reading it. Using talk like that will make people view you as a child, so if you want to be taken seriously, try to avoid that.

Just my two cents...
