Recently, the State of California filed an indictment against Activision Blizzard’s operation of a workplace full of sexual harassment, sex discrimination, and a "fraternity culture." In order to protest against Activision Blizzard, hundreds of World of Warcraft players gathered in the game. Players from both factions gathered in Oribos City, and hundreds of people sat quietly on the steps leading to the Classic TBC Gold hotel, discussing lawsuits or expressing anger and frustration over the allegations.
Although the protest seems to be spreading to other servers, it was originally organized by the role-playing guild Fence Macabre on the Moon Guard and Wyrmrest Accord servers. The guild is also raising funds for Black Girls Code, a non-profit organization that helps women of color enter the technology industry. Fence Macabre has raised $3,500.
A player named Hinahina Gray was one of the organizers of the protest. He played the role of "anchor" and invited participants to join the raid group so that they could see each other. In order to maintain the stability of the game server, Warcraft dynamically controls the visible population in a crowded space by automatically eliminating players. Hinahina and other players solved this problem by dividing the players into large groups of up to 40 people so that the protesters could see each other.
Part of the reason why players like Hinahina decided to protest in the game instead of organizing power outages and other methods is because they purchased a six-month subscription that was not refundable. She said that most of them canceled their subscriptions, and they are using the remaining game time to occupy server space and increase visibility. She found that this method works well.
At the same time, on the World of Warcraft subreddit, players are venting their anger over the treatment of Activision Blizzard and its employees. In a post about the lawsuit, there were more than 5,800 comments, and many people expressed their anger and disgust at the allegations. Some of them directly named Blizzard executives, such as Alex Afraisiabi. He served as the Cheap TBC Classic Gold creative director of World of Warcraft for many years until he quietly left the company in 2020.
Players are angry at the discriminatory culture of World of Warcraft. They want to see those who cause harm be held accountable. They believe that all employees who mention Afrasiabi and other employees who have contributed to Activision Blizzard’s harmful work culture should be taken from all of their Deleted from the game. Those who cause such injuries should be fired, and those who have been injured should receive personal compensation and compensation to make up for the trauma imposed on them by the company.
