High Elf Allied Race Megathread (Continuation)

what difference does it make if people post on alts? i’ve posted on a few different toons in these threads letting people know who i am.

most of us have a really specific way of speaking that makes it obvious who we are.

talk about finding reasons to be upset.

6 hours ago i posted i was back, i wasnt hiding mowi

nightborne have a completely different theme and aesthetic then night elves. night elves are WoWs version of wood elves. i would love to have an elf druid on the horde. wish this was true

blood/high elves have the exact same theme and aesthetic :tipping_hand_woman:

nightborne are BETTER than nelves. plus they can be warlocks and that >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> druid as far as classes go imo.

Let’s try and be civil everyone. We can do it.

night elves are dark elves.

/grins widely and nods to gathered company who know this to be true


slow train arriving at station
(that means you’re a fair skinned dark elf)

They started it mom!

Lol no worries, I’ve gotten real good at ignoring, I’ll show ya.

It just would be better for the thread, plus it’s just more productive to talk about what we want for our elves instead of circular arguments that we’ve done before.

It’s maddening, but that seems to be the point.

if people stay on topic and don’t take things personally they’ll have nothing to report and the thread stays open. try to keep that in mind you guys.

the topic is high elves as a playable race,

btw high elves are fair skinned dark elves. haha

you have the legacy of quel’thalas(ironic) discord for that

this is a thread on the official discussion forums people can voice their opinion for and against this request

its also worth noting this is the only AR request with an equal amount against it as for it

I specifically referred to the Highborne, who have exactly the same theme as Nightborne – and who are, canonically, made available to the Alliance in Cataclysm.

It is decidedly hypocritical to complain about High Elves stealing the BE’s identity, on the basis of having similar skin tones, while simultaneously denying that the exact same thing occurred with Nightborne (relative to Night Elves).

  1. This isn’t strictly true. They’re similar, as it stands, but they’re not the same.
  2. There are an endless number of potentialities which might alter the stylistic choices of the High Elves. This should hardly be a talking point, considering that mere moment after being blasted with the Void, the Void Elves apparently realized an entirely new aesthetic from scratch.

You and your alts counts only for one individual.

which if true, is silly, since you’re literally siding with the game company against your fellow players being able to play a fantasy character on a fantasy game. if this were any other game, none of this would be an issue. only wow has a problem regarding elves and have used the faction divide to control what their playerbase can ask for.

I think if the storm elves idea were used a cool racial would be a knockback affect. A lightning strike or something like that.

No proof of this.

It’s just as likely that the people playing Blood Elves are simply bitter.

I don’t want Vulpera anywhere near this game, but I don’t post in that thread because I sincerely don’t care if someone wants to play something so ugly.
