Their point is that it's redundant. You could say ex-WoW developer, you could say WoW vet, but you don't need both.

Wouldn't "WoW vet" imply they have been and are currently working on WoW? Or does "vet" specifically imply no longer active?

I would consider vet to mean that they completed their tenure there, similar to how a soldier becomes a veteran after their service ends.
