So, I get you guys want San'layn. I really do.
But spamming the forums with megathreads and being very defensive and snarky to people who disagree with you is very off-putting to me, and I'd venture to guess it's off putting to quite a few other people as well. Even if they're not being the nicest to you, fighting fire with fire doesn't always look good or end well either.
I want to point out your incorrectness right here before you decide to continue spreading this misinformation.
My response is this:--> These threads are not spam. We're on megathread number nine, and these threads are used for sharing ideas on San'layn and consolidating the discussion to one thread, which people tend to appreciate, rather than having a number of varying threads on the subject matter all over the forums.
-->If these threads were in fact spam, they would be removed by now.
--> See this dev response:
Do the blizzard employees debate about the High elf/Blood elf race definition, especially when all those repeated threads pop up?
Ever since we found out Allied Races were a confirmed thing we've talked about the idea of who/what could be an allied race all the time. It's a never ending conversation now because of the possibilities it opens up as playable races. We actually love the large discussions it's popped up among you guys. I mean megathreads that are spanning tens of thousands of posts total across all of the capped threads? That's just cool. No other feature in WoW as an idea has had that much engagement.
Source:
https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20765836893?page=17#post-340--> That dev response counts for every single megathread and in reference to all Allied Race ideas. Ergo, this is not spam.
-->We are not in fact snarky to every single person that disagrees with us. If you've been paying attention to the discussion, you'd have noticed that people of whom bring up valid counterarguments and are respectful are treated in kind. People come in here extremely rude and spam 'no more elves' along with other things, without having even bothered to read the first post. I tell those in this thread to ignore them because it isn't worth it, we've heard it many times over by now.
--> If by 'being snarky' you mean defending an argument, then we will continue to defend against arguments we see as nonsensical despite apparently some people being 'offended'.
And finally.
-->We're not asking you to support us at all, especially when you falsely accuse us of doing such things, say our threads are spam when they are not, and the like. If you have an issue, you can feel free to leave the thread unless you have something actually constructive to say.
-->We have received many compliments over the past few threads that we are an upbeat and positive community, therefore I venture to guess that your assumptions are being pulled from someplace else.

Let's continue to be productive here, folks. I want to respond to someone who I missed recently due to other things being brought up first.

I'll take your word for it!
If that's the case, then we'll either be seeing that bad boy in the embassy and/or in a San'layn saturated area, ideally their racial "town?"
These guys are coming. I can feel it. If that happens, I suppose I'll be joining you folks over on the evil faction (sometimes).
I love the idea of discussing the racial 'town' and such. And your enthusiasm, of course :D You know we'd love to have you. Anyway, I still think a revamped En'kilah would be super neat. Like I said, it was the largest concentration of San'layn in the area back when Northrend was a thing. If we don't get a necropolis (which come on, would be cool!) I think that area would be lovely. The Alliance would have to get a Northrend race and hub as well... where could it be, you think? WHO could it be? Hmm...
