What do you mean? customer service was always horrendous. The only good service was item/character restoration, and those features were automated.

Saw this on MMO-champion.com

• Mike Ybarra announced that he is leaving Blizzard today.

• Allen Adham, who has been with Blizzard since its founding, is also leaving.

• Odyssey, the title of the survival game in development at Blizzard, has also been canceled.

It is unknown which people have been affected by the 1,900 layoffs at this time. Reports say employees don't even know yet. I havent seen anywhere that CS is being outsourced to India.
