Unsubbing/boycotting/protesting is NOT blackmail.

But why is it childish to unsubscribe? I honestly don't think those that are unsubscribing are doing so solely because of the genderlock, or solely because of the lack of healer in this expac. I think it's more of a "broke the camel's back" scenario where there have been several very polarizing decisions by SE which has soured many people and so an individual might feel as though it's the last straw, and they want to send a message. Regardless of their reason, everyone pays for this game so what gets me is that people are judging those who want to unsub because they're doing what they want with their money. Frankly, I feel as though we should all practice empathy and not judge people for being upset. It's right to shun those who are being extreme and whatnot, but unsubscribing does not fall into that category.

Unsubscribing in itself isn't childish. Spamming posts all over the forum that basically amount to "Give me what I want or I'll unsubscribe" is though. Because most of said post do nothing but exhibit self centered and childish behavior that they believe what they personally want is more important than any other person's feelings or enjoyment or in some cases any professional deadlines given or needs of resource allocation.

Additionally some are going as far as to throw baseless accusations claiming certain people or the company are sexist, homophobic, misogynistic, etc.
