If they want to implement them right away I’m down. I assume they have a reason though.
Probably because a guild where you’re Unfriendly with your guildmates in the open world isn’t much of a guild, and the only way to make people not Unfriendly to the other faction in the open world is to remove factions from the game, which would be unacceptable to most.
At least with this topic, i’ll say you should be patient, CC could mention the same things on the CC forums which is good as a more direct feedback, however as programer, i can only imagine the spaguethi code that WoW has around factions, it’s a huge step that it’s part of 9.2.5 instead of 10.0, cross faction guild could be an option besides the current BNet Communities but they need to change a lot of code for that.
Maybe same for cross faction email between your own account, there’s a lot of things that are missing for some people but at least of a new feature like this, we need to be patient specially due to the code issues.
Could be, for sure.
But still something to find a way around when such a large portion of the community wants it.
There isn’t a large portion of the community that wants it. There’s a very vocal part of the Alliance playerbase that wants it.
What’s the Horde playerbase getting out of any of this? Oh yeah, nothing. It’s entirely one-sided because Alliance players complain more.
This is, by the way, a place where the CC completely falls down as a representative body - you guys are overwhelmingly Alliance. Much like the forums in general. There is no discussion when all the peas are from the same pod.

By my count, there are 60 people with the “Community Council” tag on the forums. Based on their posting character, only 20 are alliance, so no. We are not “overwhelming alliance”
I’ve seen plenty of horde players wanting to go back to alliance races but play horde to be with their guild/friends who are looking forward to cross faction and asking for guild cross faction.
Even a small addition to the LFG system is an addition. Of course alliance gets the better end of this side of the deal, because the playerbase is smaller, but the Horde doesn’t get nothing.

Then let people play the races in either faction. Dissolving the factions from the game is not the answer.
That’s what people thought Allied Races were going to be in the first place - Defias Humans for Horde, Grimtotem Tauren for Alliance, etc.

How would you even quantify this? This is meaningless.
It’s not rocket science. They only need to remove the faction restriction. People look at this like it is a complicated system - but in most cases it’s just flipping a switch or adding the ifelse condition.
Adding skips to older raids is more complicated than this.
Don’t pretend you had not your fun harassing and mocking Alliance-players during BfA. I was here, reading as a guest, when you posted.
edit: I knew I forgot something:
Yes, the reason is “feature for the next expansion”

What are they doing. I don’t see much discussion going in the community council. Was disheartened that the first PvP topic I saw was related to world PvP.
In their defense - some of those ‘suggested ideas’ were woefully terrible.
No! If they’re willing to link to this thread.
No, it’s not my idea.
However, it would help WoW immensely.
There has been several discussions about the heritage armor, it would be great if they could bring the topic to the council as well.

Another great Council posting which dives into the small things:
General Discussion is all they need.

Yeah well so did Blizzard.
At least I’m in good company.
Least they’re not trying to spam Btags for the forums.
So is the Community Council like my city’s Heritage Commission? A place for people to offer suggestions that those in charge will likely never entertain, but pretend they might for the sake of optics?
