How is everyone okay with this?

I don't understand how so many people are just okay with what has happened with the annual pass. The way the contract was originally worded which I believe said "Beta access will go live with the beta launch" made it sound like we all would get in when right when beta came out, and that video where the blizzard guy specifically stating we would get in the beta when it came out didn't help Blizzards case. *I know it didn't say "You WILL get in beta the second it comes out" but it implied it, it also didn't say something like "beta invites will begin when beta goes live". However everyone on the forums thinks its okay to heavily imply instant beta access and also says it's okay for a company to make a contract that "is subject to change". Honestly, that cant be legally binding, but people are still on Blizzards dick. Seriously, so they can change the contract to say if we signed it we have to give them 50 extra bucks? I mean it's subject to change right?

Technically the contract could even say "You will recieve beta access when beta goes live" and that still could mean any time during beta since your still getting it when beta is live, but we all know what it sounds like.

Like think about how unfair we have been treated, I have the AP and I didnt get in beta but I wont try and cancel or anything I just don't see how ANYONE could possibly side with Blizz on this, like seriously, I have never used the term 'fanboy' or really thought it could exist to such an extent, but if you defend Blizz now you will defend them through anything, and to me are the definition of a 'fanboy'.*

In summary, I don't think Blizzard deserves a class action lawsuit or something of the sort, I just think they should at least issue a public apology for thier misleading actions, and I think if you defend a contract that can change to whatever it wants whenever it wants and a very misleading advertisement, you really should take a look at what you stand for and whether or not you would die for Blizzard.
