Yeah, after they were raked over the coals by everyone from their own fans to the US Congress. Perhaps a bit too late.

I was not making any commentary on Blizzard, I was just pointing out that they had backtracked, to an extent from what the GP was posting.
Personally, I disagree with Blizzard's stance, but it should be noted that they partially backtracked. They're letting him keep the prize money, and down to a 6 month suspension from 12 months.
Blizzard's terms about not causing offense are so broad that one could hardly wish someone a good morning without risking offending someone.
To reiterate: I am not defending Blizzard, just pointing out they had a partial mea culpa.
