@dang, why did this get pulled from the front page?

I'm not dang, but it's well known that the HN algorithm penalizes ranking of posts that drive upvote/downvote wars. I don't know whether that's happening on this page but given voting behavior on similar posts in the past its not unlikely some amount of that is happening here.

It's newsworthy. And hasn't been covered by the hacker news front page.

It was also pulled from the front page the same time the title was changed.

The fact it got so many up votes so quickly was that people didn't realize how terrible blizzard was.

it definitely did make it to the front page. there have been several posts with a lot of discussion:

I don't see it in that list.
