Nobody at Blizzard is going to see this, but I had to say it. Blizzard, please, please, please remove Brother Crowlely from the Cathedral basement! You’ve made it abundantly clear in lore that the Scarlets are and always will be the baddies. This NPC hasn’t been relevant since Cataclysm and is only still there for the Holiday Bromance achievement. We ALL know this. But he’s constantly used as an excuse by bad faith RPers to constantly say “Scarlets are welcome in Stormwind because there’s an embassy in the Cathedral basement!” After the reclamation of Gilneas, it is very clear that Scarlets will go to unhinged levels to destroy anything they see as “unholy.” Can we please just finally be rid of him?
I even have a good way to still keep him in the achievement if that’s your hang-up! Turn him into a ghost! Spawn him in only during the holiday! Make him a skeleton with a Father Winter hat a la Jack Skellington! Just please stop giving people an excuse to break lore.

Doesn’t have to even be a ghostess but a different priest There. and some kind of game mechanic with it or have the priest the give something blesses.
People are walking around SW roleplaying vampires. I don’t think removing an NPC is going to prevent this kind of nonsense one way or another.
Take your RP out of SW and get away from these people. That is the only surefire way to avoid low quality roleplay.

Why are you, a human, pleading for The Scarlett Brotherhood, who saved countless of their countrymen during the first march of the Lich King, and who held the line in the Plague Lands and Northrend for YEARS with no aid from “The Alliance”, to be kicked out of Stormwind for the lengths they go to? Yet I do not see any words about kicking out The Ebon Blade, who would reincarnate your dead family any given day to use as a meat shield?

Ah yes, what we call someone with a power struggle desire to be in command.
Clearly this is an RP “I’m right, your wrong” issue with the Scarlets making your RP inferior because you don’t have power over them. Like someone trying to fit in with the rest to be accepted.
Everyone loves Scarlets, but no-one loves the Stormwind Law Enforcement guild. Another copycat guild that wasn’t accepted into the Stormwind Army or other that came first.
There is an entire WORLD and you choose to RP in stormwind clearly for power or attention. Go make a dwarf and be law over Ironforge or something else for real. Patrol the roads and keep travelers safe and they will accept you.
Stop relying on SW for attention.
I live/RP in the Maw. And no-one notices me, but i have the time of my life.
By lore standards the Church silently supports the crusade while openly rejects it, much like Batman and his universe. Or Iron man and the government having no say over his armor.
That’s all this is.

Roleplaying groups or styles will not go away just because we want them to, regardless of the group/concept. I feel the approach of selective roleplay is usually the way to go when it comes to these things; if you don’t want to RP with it/them, then just don’t. I know it might feel hard to ignore them if they are hanging around in the spot that you are, but perhaps you can pick another spot for a moment until the group logs off/moves away/something. As with anything in life, we can’t control other people’s choices, only how we choose to deal with it. If you have super strong feelings about it, I’d just leave a note in your OOC section about it and hopefully they will not engage with you in turn.
Life is too short to worry about computer things! 
Edit; typos.

We have Demons, Undead, Void corrupt Elves, Draenei bound by the Light, and Dragons skittering about Stormwind yet the tipping point is a bunch of Zealots preaching about how ‘they’ are right?
Just take it to a good ol’ fashioned Dice roll 20s, First to five hits wins.
Or if you’re strapped for time, Go to the gates and have a good ol’ time with some PvpRp. But what do ‘I’ know, I’m a Demon.

Another day, another Content Cop post.
There’s a lot of fun to be had in the world when you don’t spend your time focused on trying to tell others how they should spend their money.

To add one final note, i feel like this is a role call for the the next Eric Cartmen of South Park.

I’m not a RPer, but a lore enthusiast. I see stuff like this and think some of you take things a little too seriously. It is all make believe but some of you lord your make believe over other’s make believe and maybe you can’t step back far enough to see it but it comes off as ridiculous sometimes. Just make believe they’re not there and ignore them if you’re bothered that much. Seems like an easy solution.

This is a much, much nicer way of putting it than I did. We’re playing pretend time in World of Warcraft, of all things. It’s kind of goofy to get this worked up over it to the point we’re telling each other we’re playing pretend time the wrong way.
