At this point I’m just going to assume you are either being deliberately obtuse or that your mother dropped you on your head as an infant…repeatedly.

Um…yeah, I didn’t care…that’s what I said. As for awkward, I don’t know where you’re even getting that from, honestly. 
Clearly you couldn’t based on your previous responses.
And that would be the catalyst for me.
Why because you didn’t give one reason that is faction related? You are the one being “obtuse” and throwing out insults.
I thought ML and gearing was already the catalyst for you.
You’re the one struggling with reading comprehension.
My response was stating that the removal of factions would be the last nail of the coffin for me…when added alongside everything else.
Something that would be very evident to anyone that actually reads and comprehends instead of just skimming with the only intent being of finding something to argue about or cherrypick.

Nope, I asked why removing factions would be it for you. So, apparently it is not the real problem for you. Like I mentioned all the other complaints you listed would be improved by removing factions.
Welp… I’m just going to go with your mother dropping you, often, as an infant.
Nobody can be naturally this dense.
Because I just went back and reread my post and it is clear as to what my point was.

Only one american guild has cleared mythic.
That’s nice. I’m done with you. You make claims while showing 0 evidence and made yourself look foolish by trying to put forward that I don’t do Rated PvP. While wearing a 2k tabard from the previous expansion. Clearly you have no interest in conversation and act antagonistic towards anyone who has a differing opinion than your own.
I gain nothing from interacting with someone trying to educate others on rated pvp while never even making a significant push in any bracket. Have a good night.

The thing is those things are part of the reason I quit. Taking down factions is what would keep me out of the game. Regardless of it they brought ML and proper gear progression back.
“Something gets done” probably means we’ll get cross faction guilds and groups in 9.0. That’s the only way to balance it going forward, because the rift now goes beyond racials.
The imbalance will only reinforce itself as more people flock to where more people are, where it’s easier to form competent groups to get things done. The only remedy is to make faction don’t matter to who you can group with, so faction choice is back to being based on story and aesthetics alone…
I don’t see how they can keep factions at this point as they only hurt the game.
Think it only hurts because they don’t know what they’re doing anymore. Story wise the factions are a mess. And racials wise we keep just tearing them down instead of bringing the underwhelming ones up.
I agree with what you said. I just think it has gotten to a point where they can’t repair the damage done.
Of course you are, because you’re wrong and that’s okay.
I mean, I would say the same thing to anyone…you don’t have to pretend you’re special. 
10/10 neatness, bro
I love conversation, arguing, etc. but I’m going to point out someone when they’re wrong. If you get offended or upset about that, that’s on you.
Sweet dream, pwincess. 
That’s where we differ. I see an infected arm and would opt to find a cure. You see an infected arm and would chop it off. And the important thing is neither option is right or wrong. Because at the time we don’t know which direction would be beneficial to the host.
I personally would have loved to see the story go with Baine becoming Warchief in Legion. It would explain the absence of the Horde because Baine doesn’t really do anything. Then both factions would start making their own decisions due to disagreements with their faction leaders and would act on their own. Be it directly or behind their back pretty much starting the war.
It could have been a story about both Baine and Anduin trying to rise and live up to their fathers legacy. And eventually leading both of them realizing that the war was pointless and earn the respect of their followers. With the realization, like the real world in my opinion, that true peace cannot realized. But that’s not a reason to wage a war on one another. And begin working on having positive relations with one another as representatives. In my opinion, they could still go down that route with Baine.
As for gameplay, like I said. Create it to where both factions have strong racials. But I think the Alliance coming apart is just a result of people leaving all together as well. As the population drops I think Alliance gets hit way harder than the Horde.
Not a Q&A but some of the Forbes interviews.
“I think global faction balance is in a pretty fine place,”
or
" Hazzikostas: Not off the top of my head. The challenge is also we’re not looking to encourage mass amounts of faction migration. It’s more, how can we build a healthier high-end Mythic Plus scene, or a healthier high-end raid scene on the Alliance side, among the Alliance population.
Because in terms of the populations, Alliance versus Horde globally, region-wide, they are actually quite balanced. Just within a few percentage points of each other. If we had a problem where like two thirds of all players were Horde, that would be a very different story in terms of how to solve that.
But there is ample critical mass to support healthy communities on the Alliance side. It’s more a matter of encouraging the formation and encouraging more people to dip their toe into those types of activities, so that there are more people to play with. And the scene evolves from there."

Hey i was 4 o 9 BOD, woulda been 6 with the rest of my guild but i took a break due to IRL. So i… oh wait i agree with you, lol. I’m having fun on my alliance Mythic Raider. We do our best with a goal to get CE every tier.
The Alliance just doesn’t attract the mindset of competitive people. Which is fine. I don’t see an issue until sometimes warmode imbalances. That can usually be negated by forming raids.
Jesus Christ thank you. That’s all I’ve been asking for.
For the first one I think he’s talking about the warmode population but it could lean both ways on that one. As for the second one that’s a pretty cut’n dry response from Ion. So thanks for that.
EDIT: Cut’n dry as in he’s stating that there’s balance.
