I don’t believe you. You said you have proof, then post the proof. Otherwise I think you’re just trying to start more drama in GD.
You know that the posts get refreshed when you race change / faction change?. I also clearly stated this is my first post on this toon as he’s my only human toon aka my only black toon. I don’t posts on the forums often I’m the ghost that watches your threads and never says anything but I was curious and decided to come out of the shadows.
We like the drama here.
You don’t have to believe me, this thread wasn’t meant for you.
I think it’s weird when people play human anything in a game. I do have a human but it just seems odd to include it in a fantasy game (don’t freak out, its just my opinion of it)
I never look at skin tone when I meet other characters in game There’s cows, orcs, goblins, foxes etc. I am skeptical about the OPs story because of this. Race has never been a thing in wow when it comes to skin tone to my knowledge.
Didn’t they remove the darker skin tones back in the old WoW days because of racism ?.
Ah, nothing like racial gatekeeping…
I find it sad how quick people are to dismiss any form of racism in WoW but that’s expected it’s the same way in the real world to.
Would you prefer to be the target of racism or something ??. Do you want this thread to be targeted towards you? You should be happy it isnt, racism sucks I know I’d be happy.
I’ve been playing this game since Vanilla. I have never seen racist crap in game and if I did I would report.
When and where did I say any of that. That has nothing to do with any one of my posts what.
I’ve had a couple people give me grief over the skin tone I chose for my character, just shrugged it off though.
Yep… it’s disgusting, but people there were doing the whole racist thing long before Blizz added the new skintones.
I’ve never seen Lebron james play basketball so he must not be all that great.
I have humans because the diplomacy racial is amazing and my friends went alliance.
More to the OP’s point. I have one human toon that uses a dark skin tone. She had it before they originally deleted them, a nice reddish coppery tint with the green eyes. There was one memorable pug on Valentines day where, after zoning in, the tank stated something like “I hate black people, is that going to be a problem” Then “well?” Took me a bit to realize what he was doing. Like oh! Hell, some weird guy is referencing my toon’s skin color. I replied back, actually its Romani. Kinda took the wind out of him, he didn’t say much but “Oh, cool cool” Clueless. Killed Vday boss and went on my way.
That particular toon usually wears a helm because its a paladin tank I leveled up for Cata. Holiday farms were as much as I pugged so, not a ton of interaction with randoms. I do wonder how many remarks may have been made that went over my head.
Obviously you went to goldshire and took OFF all that armor else no one would be able to tell what your skin tone was. That is exactly the wrong place to expect reasonable behavior.
I have a couple of characters with dark skin tones and have never had any reaction to it whatsoever.
I’m sorry to hear that! And it’s kind of funny we’re both on Moonguard lol.
Yeah but wasn’t there always an option for black male human.
I may be mistaken as well. I mained horde pretty much up until the end of BFA and SL.
There’s all kinds of races on the horde side and it’s not something I pay attention to normally.
I don’t wear helms usually, I love goggles. All my mains have engineering.
Then move! I did. Best decision I ever made!
There was at one point I believe and it was removed and finally added back many years later in shadowlands.
