Activision Pulls Nickmercs Skin From Call of Duty After He Tweets That He Doesn’t Like Rainbows

In a stunning move, Activision has pulled the Nickmercs skin from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone after the popular streamer tweeted that he doesn’t like rainbows.

“I’m not a fan of rainbows,” Nickmercs tweeted. “They’re just too colorful and flashy for me. I prefer more muted colors, like black and gray.”

Activision was quick to respond to Nickmercs’ tweet, pulling his skin from the game.

“We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all players,” Activision said in a statement. “We do not tolerate discrimination of any kind, and we believe that everyone should be able to enjoy our games without feeling harassed or excluded.”

Nickmercs has since apologized for his tweet, saying that he didn’t mean to offend anyone.

“I’m sorry if my tweet offended anyone,” Nickmercs said. “I didn’t mean to say anything hurtful. I just don’t like rainbows.”

Despite Nickmercs’ apology, Activision has refused to reinstate his skin.

“We understand that Nickmercs didn’t mean to offend anyone,” Activision said. “However, we believe that his tweet was harmful and could have a negative impact on our players. We hope that Nickmercs will use this opportunity to learn and grow.”

The decision to pull Nickmercs’ skin has been met with mixed reactions from the Call of Duty community. Some players have praised Activision for taking a stand against discrimination, while others have criticized the company for being too sensitive.

“I’m glad that Activision is taking a stand against discrimination,” one player said. “Nickmercs’ tweet was hurtful and could have made some players feel unwelcome. I’m glad that Activision is taking steps to make sure that everyone feels comfortable playing our games.”

“This is ridiculous,” another player said. “Nickmercs didn’t mean to offend anyone. He just doesn’t like rainbows. Activision is being too sensitive.”

The debate over Nickmercs’ skin is likely to continue for some time. However, one thing is for sure: Activision has made it clear that it is committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all players.
