The High Elf Love Thread 🥰

[Kirela-arygos (Kirela)]

Well, I know you use the same tired stuff over and over, but it was an easy example.

We could also go into the troll strat where they post the same “nuh uh. hi elves r blud elves” response and then link the same Ion video 12 times a day like it means anything, but that one is a bit more subtle.

[Guzzle-barthilas]

It says they’re physiologically the same race.

[Midare-area-52 (Midare)]

VS a troll who posted the same mocking GTA video in multiple threads. Yeah, that’s so much better.

Who?

Gosh, I bet the other megathreads for other allied races get repetitive as well at points. Vulpera are on their second one, right? Get after it!

Yeah, pretty sure they do. But at least those threads are not asking for a race from the opposite side.

You had a thread dedicated to it and yet you were a regular in the megathreads as well. Methinks it’s not about “voicing your opinion” so much as upsetting other players.

I was never a regular in the megathread because I openly stated there once that I was not fond of echo-chambers. It was much later that I became semi-regular and only because certain bunch won’t stop mass flagging and boasting about it and even then the climate was a lot more open, which wasn’t by much but still better than what it used to be.

I like how I point out where I stand and you still attempt to toss around the same silly comments about me. Clearly, you are not picking up what I’m putting down.

Oh I am, which is why I can’t believe the lack of self awareness and the whole charade as if it’s me the one attempting to stay on some sort of high moral ground… particularly since I don’t label those I disagree with in an imflammatory way.

No u.

Finally a sentence that is more at your speed.

and that says nothing about exactly how they look. You can be slim and athletic in different ways.

[Guzzle-barthilas]

The warcraft Encyclopedia, which so far as not been retconned:

"Elves do have several characteristics in common. All three groups have unusually acute senses and are able to see clearly even in low-light conditions. As a general rule, elves are also slim, athletic, and graceful. Furthermore, they all have large pointed ears that tend to be greeted with admiration or mockery by other races. "

I guess this means Night elves should take on the model of blood elves too… except that we do know that they more closely resemble the Highborne while the High elves/blood elves were the ones that changed and “shrunk” in height, which is the only physical change they are said to have gone through.

Missed the most important bit, fam.

High elves and blood elves are physiologically the same race, and they are descended from night elves. Nevertheless, due to their shared history and philosophical differences, the three groups do not share a close relationship. Indeed, night elves regard high elves and blood elves with suspicion, disgust, or outright hostility.

[Rreifren-grobbulus]

okay. I am not denying that though. I am just saying they don’t all have the same body build.

also posture is something that can be changed. a different posture alone would vastly change the silhouette you all care so much about

[Midare-area-52 (Midare)]

and that says nothing about exactly how they look. You can be slim and athletic in different ways.

Again, there has not been any mention that they changed either.

Could it be done, sure. Would that contradict the fact that many claim to want them for their loyalty to the lore… no doubt.

Oh for Pete’s sake, I’m going blind…

[Rreifren-grobbulus]

we have made all these suggestions to change them to appease your side because you keep saying it isn’t good enough to want them for their loyalty and lore. We are trying to compromise but your side is unwilling to do so.

[Firewoman-spirestone]

okay. I am not denying that though. I am just saying they don’t all have the same body build.

Every playable race has only ONE body build…it’s the way WoW works. You’ll never get something different for another playable race.

[Rreifren-grobbulus]

but kul tiran humans did…? Since high elves would be a separate playable race they could get a different model.

[Firewoman-spirestone]

They’re not the same playable race. But you know this.

[Rreifren-grobbulus]

they are both human?

[Kirela-arygos (Kirela)]

Who?

Woosh Right over your head it seems.

Yeah, pretty sure they do. But at least those threads are not asking for a race from the opposite side.

You didn’t mention that in your original post when you were complaining about repetitive ideas. Nice way to move the goalpost.

I was never a regular in the megathread because I openly stated there once that I was not fond of echo-chambers. It was much later that I became semi-regular and only because certain bunch won’t stop mass flagging and boasting about it and even then the climate was a lot more open, which wasn’t by much but still better than what it used to be.

So wait… You are attracted to drama? Ah, now it becomes clear.

Oh I am, which is why I can’t believe the lack of self awareness and the whole charade as if it’s me the one attempting to stay on some sort of high moral ground…

No, like I said its about causing unrest. Otherwise, why latch onto something that was never in response to you?

particularly since I don’t label those I disagree with in an imflammatory way.

Pretty sure that’s not true. Maybe on the forums it is. Wait a minute…

I’m trying to compromise too, which is why I support half-elves myself.
And sure, if they can make them look completely different after pulling a random reason for the change out of their rear, fine.
All I’m saying that in many cases (not you specifically) it would be highly hypocritical for them to be ok with such a thing.

[Firewoman-spirestone]

they are both human?

We’re both playing the same game and going into the selection screen. There is no different body build on a single race.
If you dont’ see this, there’s nothing else to say.

[Rreifren-grobbulus]

I don’t follow your logic. You seem to have changed topics partway through this comment chain.

[Midare-area-52 (Midare)]

Woosh Right over your head it seems.

I asked because I don’t know who you’re talking about.

You didn’t mention that in your original post when you were complaining about repetitive ideas. Nice way to move the goalpost.

Because I didn’t mention other megathreads because they are irrelevant to the point.
You are the one that brought them in so how can I move a goalpost I didn’t set?

So wait… You are attracted to drama? Ah, now it becomes clear.

No, I enjoy debate, not echo-chambers.

But you seem to be projecting, because you’re always looking for a fight and then play the victim when someone stands up to you.

No, like I said its about causing unrest. Otherwise, why latch onto something that was never in response to you?

I’ve explained it several times in threads you’ve been present, I’m not going to repeat myself, and not for you.

And it is feedback, no matter how you want to act as if it isn’t.

Pretty sure that’s not true. Maybe on the forums it is. Wait a minute…

So you can’t tell the difference between labeling someone and mocking someone, gotcha.

EDIT: Added a few things I missed.

[Guzzle-barthilas]

[Firewoman-spirestone]

sigh
Ok…well I tried anyways.
btw…There are others who want to compromise. I’m not one of them, so it’s no big deal if you dont’ understand what I was saying.

[Kirela-arygos (Kirela)]

Your complaint was that the High Elf megathread is repetitive. I pointed out other threads with the same kind of subject are also repetitive. You then decided that the High Elf megathread is repetitive and “asking for a race from the opposite side” (which they aren’t, by the way, because they’re not asking for Blood Elves).

No, I enjoy debate, not echo-chambers.

But you seem to be projecting, because you’re always looking for a fight and then play the victim when someone stands up to you.

Kirela:

You were the one who mentioned becoming a “semi regular” only AFTER you caught wind of some silly forum drama, not me.

I’ve explained it several times in threads you’ve been present, I’m not going to repeat myself, and not for you.

And it is feedback, no matter how you want to act as if it isn’t.

I know. You won’t admit it, but it’s about tearing down your fellow players (in multiple ways). Otherwise, you wouldn’t jump on something that is supposedly not about you to argue and argue and argue.

So you can’t tell the difference between labeling someone and mocking someone, gotcha.

But you do just by dropping inflammatory comments. Are you attempting to submit that just because you don’t use a “name” it is less hateful? K.

I think that about wraps it up. Have fun!
