lets make a riot infront Activision headquarters

Looks like there's some versions of Gearscore and DBM addons out that collect your real-id name, or at least rumors going around about them (even if youre not a real-id friend of the person using it). So be careful when updating to a new version of those.



notice the char the tooltip is about is not on the player's friend list, so gearscore is passing around realid info

open letter from CEO mike morhaim

The group of heroes enter Activision-Blizzard’s headquarters, and after battling several powerful opponents, find themselves outside the office of Kotick himself. A voice emanates from within.

Kotick : Drain the players! Drain their wallets until there is nothing but a vacant shell!

The players enter the room, quickly dispatching the three workplace efficiency consultants clustering around the CEO’s desk. Kotick emerges from behind his desk, made from the skins of employees who disagreed with his plans to put keyloggers in games that save bank information, and drain the accounts while players sleep.

Kotick : The expendable have perished… so be it. Now I will succeed where Jack Thompson could not! I will bleed this wretched game, and secure my place as the true master of exploiting gamers! The end has come! Let the unraveling of this MMO commence!

Several Blizzard Employees enter the room.

Blizzard Employees: You are not alone. The game’s developers will help you vanquish The Deceiver!

Kotick immediately creates several false Bnet accounts with the same details as the Heroes, and uses it to get the real names and emails of their friends.

Kotick : Who can you trust?

The Blizzard Employees call out to Mike Morhaime, who is imprisoned in a cage behind Kotick’s desk.

Blizzard Employees: Morhaime, you must awaken! This game needs you!
Morhaime: I serve only the master, now.

Kotick : I will not be denied! This game shall fall!
Blizzard Employees: We will channel our powers into the forums, be ready!

Kotick begins to channel dark energy…
Kotick : OBLIVION!

Kotick creates several more fake accounts, this time using them to post offensive messages on the forums, tainting the names of those affected.

Kotick : The enemy is among you!

Blizzard Employees: You must let go! You must become what you were always meant to be! The time is now, Morhaime!
Morhaime: But I’m … lost, I cannot find my way back.

Kotick begins to channel dark energy…
Kotick : CHAOS!

Kotick : Do not harbour false hope, you cannot win!
Blizzard Employees: We have empowered another forum thread! Post in it quickly!

Kotick begins to channel dark energy…
Kotick : DESTRUCTION!
Kotick’s Rage of a Thousand Forum Trolls crits Bashiok for an amount of damage equal to his home phone number.
Bashiok dies.
Kotick : Another step towards destruction!

Kotick begins to channel dark energy…
Kotick : CHAOS!

Kotick uses RealID to identify a transgendered player, and blackmails them with the threat to reveal their secret on the forums.

Kotick : Who can you trust?

Kotick then reveals it anyway.

Kotick : Anukh-Kyrie!

The Blizzard Employees rally for a final plea to their leader.

Blizzard Employees: Morhaime, we love you! Focus on our voices! Come back for us now! Only you can cleanse the company’s name!
Morhaime: Bornak… Nethaera?
Blizzard Employees: Yes, Morhaime! Let fate embrace you now!
Morhaime: The nightmare is over! The spell is broken! Goodbye, community managers!

The Blizzard Employees combine the power of almost 50,000 forum posts, plus blogs and mainstream news stories, empowering Morhaime to launch one final press release.

Kotick : Aggghh! The powers of the forums … turn … against me! What have you done? What have you done???

Blizzard Employees: We have channeled all that we can! The power is in your hands!
Blizzard Employess: Strike now heroes, while he is weakened! Vanquish The Deceiver!

The Heroes renew their assault upon the now weakend Kotick.

Kotick begins to channel dark energy…
Kotick : DESTRUCTION!

Kotick’s voice weakens.

Kotick begins to channel dark energy…
Kotick : Des… DESTRUCTION!

The Heroes deliver the final blow, decapitating Kotick with the sharp edge of a Guitar Hero guitar controller that broke after three days.

Kotick : Nooooooooooooo!

Tigole appears over the fallen CEO’s body.

Prophet Tigole : Mortal heroes – your victory here today was fortold long ago. My boss’s anguished cry of defeat will echo across the internet – bringing renewed hope to all those who still stand against the RealID crusade.
Prophet Tigole : As Activision’s final defeat draws ever nearer, stand proud in the knowledge that you have saved posters without number from the flames.
Prophet Tigole : Just as this day marks an ending, so too does it herald a new beginning…
Prophet Tigole : The creature Micah Whipple, whom you were forced to destroy, was once the noble CM, Bashiok. On the forums, Bashiok channeled vast energies of LIGHT and HOPE. For a time, a misguided few sought to send pizzas to those energies…

The forum trolls enter.

Forum trolls: Our arrogance was unpardonable. We damned one of the most noble beings of all. We may never atone for this sin.

Tigole brings up an animated gif of a Fallen Shaman on Kotick’s computer monitor.

Prophet Tigole : Then fortunate it is that I have reclaimed the noble CM’s avatar from where it fell. Where faith dwells, hope is never lost, level 1 alts.

The trolls gasp.

Forum trolls: Can it be?

Light fills the room, as Micah’s personal information is purged from the internet.

Prophet Tigole : Gaze now, mortals – upon the AVATAR OF BASHIOK! Unblemished. Bathed by the light of creation – just as it was at the Dawn.
Prophet Tigole : In time, the light and hope held within – will rebirth more than this mere fount of power… Mayhap, they will rebirth the soul of an MMO.

The trolls fall to their knees.

Forum trolls: Blessed ancestors! We feel it… so many guilds… so much loot… there are… no words… impossible to describe…

Tigole nods.

Prophet Tigole : Community, young ones. It’s good for us all.
Prophet Tigole : Farewell.

That's pretty epic
