Ythisens laid off from Blizzard, signals loss of most vocal community manager for WoW Classic
Furious • Updated June 7, 2025
Today marks a very unfortunate day for those interested in WoW: Classic. Former community manager, Ythisens, was laid off from Blizzard just today.
As of today I’m no longer an employee of @Blizzard_Ent. Wasn’t my choice. I wanted to retire here. I was just laid off from my dream job.
Probably not best for me to tweet right now but it was an honor being your CM @Warcraft community. I love all of you.

For those that don’t know who Caden House is, he interacted with the community more than anyone else in regards to WoW: Classic. He had more blue posts using the moniker of Ythisens on the forums than any other CM in the past 3 years, so this comes as a big hit to those hoping to hear more about WoW: Classic.
Caden will continue to stream on his twitch channel as he looks for another CM position. His recent lay-off comes as a bit of a shock, considering he told the community that development of WoW: Classic was coming along just a month ago. Caden “Ythisens” House will certainly be missed within the World of Warcraft community.
