It seemed reasonable to me to open the discussion with a background as to why it’s occurring. It’s occurring because of a perceived superiority of Horde PvP racials. It’s funny, because I have been posting that I actually think Alliance racials are pretty good and that Horde racials are overrated - that the hypermajority of people rerolling Horde for their racials are not going to significantly benefit from them. Hell, I even put that in the original post when I quipped that hard-stuck Alliance team wouldn’t magically gain rating by switching. The ultimate impact of Horde racials is only super apparent at the top 0.1% of play and yet the 99% of people below that level are slavishly rerolling because of that peak.
Here’s a recent post I made arguing why I chose NE Restokin over Tauren for TBC:
But no, ultimately, this thread is not about racials or about boosts. It’s about queues. It’s about queue times that are about to get astronomical. It’s about the impending crisis of posts on this forums demanding Blizzard act. I really just wanted to write the post so I can link it in July on every post crying about queue times.
