Here is what I posted earlier today that got deleted. Can someone tell me what rules I violated? It's called "Someone must be held responsible"
So after all this time of there being an auction house available in D3, Blizzard finally figured out that the AH short circuits their "core reward loop".
But the truth is, this is false. Blizzard knew before releasing D3 that the AH diminishes a core gameplay mechanic of the Diablo franchise.
So now we must question who made the decision that would sacrifice a core element of Diablo and possibly jeopardize the franchise.
Jay Wilson is not responsible. He was only the director and second to Rob Pardo, producer of Diablo 3. The auction house would not exist if Pardo didn't give it the green light. The buck stops with him.
But fans and devs alike should ask themselves if they really want a person that was willing to sacrifice a core gameplay element of the Diablo franchise to be producer of future games.
They say the first step of solving a problem is admitting you have one. Blizz did that yesterday with the announcement of closing of the AH. But that would only be treating a symptom of the real problem. Now is a time for change, Blizzard. Someone must be held responsible.
Really dude? They are making great strides to correct this game and give people what they want and your calling for a fucking witch hunt? Seriously what happened happened and it's in the past. I rather focus on the good that's coming instead of the bad choices made in the beginning.
Now if it bothers you this much then I don't know how your going to get your restitution.
So you demanded they fire Rob Pardo... and you wonder why your post got deleted? If it were me you'd be permenantly suspended.
Just FYI, Blizzard doesn't have Diablo forums for you to discuss who they should employ. The forums are there to discuss Diablo, not for you to demand they fire people.
I actually hope the mods here ban you because, IMO, it's just as inappropriate that you'd post that here as there. It's people like you which hold this community back and stifle creativity because every "fuck up" has to be compensated for by some guy losing his job.
It simply amazes me that people think they have the audacity to dictate things like this. What makes you think you have the right to carry your torches and pitchforks demanding for someone's job to be taken away? You act as if he's a corporate wighead out to crush your Diablo dreams. Guess what, he's not. He's there to put out a product to make money, first and foremost yes. But when a majority of people abandon said product because of all of the problems, that's not good business. It's in Blizzard's best interest to put out a game that people will actually love and enjoy. That means more possible customers, higher morale for the game & the company. I'm sure he could have the power to just let both the Auction Houses remain in the game, but despite popular belief, Blizzard doesn't want to make a completely fail game that everyone talks bad about. Want to know why? Because it's bad for Blizzard's reputation and it's bad for business and profits. /rant
All I ask is that Rob Pardo's name never be on another Diablo product again. Ever.
I take it your one of those people that if you won the lottery, you'd end up bitching about the taxes you had to pay on it.
They've made huge strides in improving this game since its release and I applaud them for that, they realized they released a turd and then turned to the community for input and changes on how to fix it, and the for the most part have been very proactive at doing so. While it doesn't excuse the missteps they've made at least they admit when their wrong. I swear the community on the official forums is complete garbage, people cannot be pleased 100% of the time. I can't even go to the official bnet forums anymore because the bitching and moaning is so bad and half the time its over full retard mode type stuff.

Pitchforks? People being fired? Whoa!
All I want is for Rob Pardo's name to never be on a Diablo product again.
Looks like the Diablo 3 cleanup street team is out in full force tonight. How much do you guys get paid by Pardo?
Rob, which is what I call him since we are best of friends and hang out at the bars on Friday nights, pays me in rare collectible coins, which is my hobby when I'm busy not playing D3 and masturbating to reruns of the Golden Girls (sometimes simultaneously).
One time Rob, Mike, and I went out and did so much blow that I have very little recollection of the evening but I know it involved at least two dozen dead hookers. That's OK because Mike, which is what I call him since we have each other on speed dial and regularly consult each other on the best choices to make for all Blizzard games, has plenty of acid and plenty of big oil drums and we get rid of the bodies in his basement much the same as they do in mobster movies.
Speaking of disposing of corpses, I just got off the phone with Aaron Paul because I'm the president of the Jesse Pinkman fan club and we regularly correspond about the weather, girls, and the tax rates on rich, important people like ourselves. And that reminded me...
Hopefully someone laughed at this... I figured since this thread is obviously going to get locked that I may as well have some fun and try to make someone smile.

Sure, I can help you. This is copied directly from the Blizzard forums code of conduct:
By my count, you violated three of those.
Any more questions?
