A few days after the California litigation in the state of California against WoTLK Gold was filed, World of Warcraft players organized a mass in-game protest for all players to join in. World of Warcraft has been at the top of the MMO genre for over 10 years, but the company's owner Activision Blizzard is facing heavy scrutiny following a state lawsuit alleging workplace abuse and harassment.

On July 21 It was reported that the state of California has filed an action against Activision Blizzard for allegations including racism, sexism and harassment and abuse on an whole-company scale. The news of this lawsuit been widely spread, triggering outrage on a large scale that has resulted in a number of avid fans seeking changes and vowing to stop playing Activision Blizzard games.

World of Warcraft player Fence Macabre initiated an online protest and fundraiser during the game in Oribos. The sit-in which began on July 22. is designed for players who want to be able to gather to protest the discrimination against Activision Blizzard employees, with many players in the crowd who have cancelled their subscriptions or simply waiting for the remainder of their current subscriptions. This could mean they have to quit the game they love for good. The protest is growing with more players joining in and cancelling their subscriptions will be able to do so until "transparent lasting changes" are implemented within the company.

The event is also an event for fundraising with Black Girls CODE, a non-profit that educates girls from 7 to 17 about computer programming and digital technology to establish more representation in the tech industry in general. As of press time, the event has already raised nearly $9.000. The majority of Activision's executive leadership team is composed of white males, so a charity devoted to diversifying the tech industry would be an apt choice by World of Warcraft sit-in organizers.

The protest continues and the company's founders are encouraging players to join in even if they're not sure about having to end their subscriptions to this game. What makes this protest unique is not only the issue is so well-known in such a short amount in time but it is that anyone can join and protest the company's actions regardless of where they live.

It is possible that cancellation of subscriptions will be a viable way to create change at the billion-dollar company, since perceived Activision Blizzard focus on profits over staff wellbeing has long been a hot issue in gamers. While the fate of the lawsuit is unclear, WoTLK Classic Gold players have demanded that the company commit to accountability and adopt some long-overdue improvements.
