I played Vanilla WoW a week after launch and was with it all the way up through ~~Cataclysm~~ Mists. After hearing about the multiple shocking incidences of sexual harassment and gender discrimination at Blizzard and upper management's unwillingness to stop it, it was quite easy to delete my Battle.net account and walk away. (Yeah I hadn't played in a while, but I'd intended to come back eventually.)

There are plenty of other games out there. You vote with your dollars, and your vote shows your character.
