Those concept models and art are amazing. It gives new light and a rather unique look to High Elves separating them from Void/Bloods. Iām a big fan of the tattoos & war paint concept for them especially if theyāre a more rugged people now.

At least before the number would be a bit higher, but it seemed to be a bug that when a thread got to 10k posts it would add in all the posts that were removed or deleted from the thread to the number of posts. So youād go from post 9999 to something like post 10436. But they did do that one big patching of the forums since the last time I saw it get that big, so maybe itās been fixed
FYI, One of the Mods explained to me to there was a problem with the forums
some of the threads were auto locking by mistake and this was one of them. Thats why this thread was locked for so long.

Could be, although I guess Jaina has been forgiven for the purge, so maybe the SC was as well?
Play Vulpera.
Youāll be happier.
What exactly should the Silver Covenant be forgiven for?
Their role in the purge of Dalaran, thereās not many ways to slice it in which the event was ok

Iām playing one. Still want my High Elf.
Thanks for coming by though!
Abandoning heir people in a moment of need just to be human boot lickers?, purging their people from a city that they helped to establish?.
I know you guys want them to be the lovely pure and cliche elves that hang with humans and dwarves. But ignoring stuff for the sake of it is quite sad.

Ahhh, the Purge of Dalaran. I actually think that was an expected event. The leader of a neutral Dalaran discovered that some Sunreavers used Dalaran resources to help the Horde (the faction that razed down her city, annihilated the population and almost killed her) steal a weapon of mass destruction to be used against the Alliance (the faction said leader individually sympathized most with). In a world where there are no human rights or international judicial procedures - what exactly did we expect her to do? Locking em all up and fighting back against those who resisted seems quite modest in the context of World of Warcraft.
Sure, we could argue that Vereesa went a bit too far with some Sunreavers and Dragonhawks. Still pales in comparison to what AU Grommash did in WoD and yet the expansion ended with him being a hero cheered by the very same Draenei he previously enslaved and tortured. Letās not even talk about Sylvanas being redeemed in Shadowlands.
If players want to see Vereesa punished for her actions during the Purge - fine, but Iāll want to see Sylvanas killed by Tyrande herself.

I do not think the Silver Cov did anything wrong, in a period of escalated tension, they have Jaina who they have credibility with rousing them up about a plot, Theramore I think had just happened so itās a martial law type situation, they have never gotten along with the Blood Elves / mistrust them since they became Blood Elves. I would say the SC respect themselves / anyone who stayed a High Elf, and members of the Alliance. So in a situation where they have to choose of course they would choose the side that has credibility with them.
Just like the BEās chose Garrosh. There were HEās in Thereamore yes?

This is like reading someone trying to justify stuff like the Holy Inquisition by comparing it to similar events.
This is gold coming from someone advocation for a āraceā in the faction that advocates for moral and the āright thingā
I love the coherence.
Blood Elves abandoned the Humans in a moment of a desperate, dire need. Funny how that backfired though lol
They were locked up. The violent ones were repressed. I believe, um, 3? potentially innocent Sunreavers were ordered to be incarcerated or killed by Vereesa. Ok, sure, sue her. That was not ok.
In the meantime, letās continue pretending weāre the best while decimating entire tribes every new expansion.

Iām not justifying Vereesaās actions - on the contrary, Iām saying they were not ok.
All Iām doing is pointing out how much you guys love to exacerbate Vereesaās actions as heinous crimes that must be punished while being completely ok with other true villains.
You do you

I just feel like BEās are as much to blame in this situation for helping Garrosh. I love my BEās and I loved Garrosh, and I love Sylvanas I liked hitting the plague everyone button in the UC scenario lol, but on the flip side I think BEās siding with the Horde in situations like this have consequences.
In a sticky situation like is being described of course Vereesa sided with the people who have credibility with her / she trusts, she as far as I know doesnāt trust BEās and even less so during the time of these events, so idk 
seems like a moot point with wrongs on both sides, but this is ā¦ warcraft so

Neutral in that they just helped transport and secure a weapon for the most traditionally xenophobic and quick tempered race on the alliance? That neutrality?

Who is defending Grommash or Sylvanas in here?.
Donāt bring stuff that has nothing to do with the argument to suit your narrative.
Thatās desperate.

Iāve always felt that the purge was just an excuse to make an alliance character care about the faction war again, since half of them tend to be neutral. Nowadays Genn and Tyrande are the only ones whoāll be out for blood
Kind of hard to care about fighting the Horde when most of our major lore characters donāt want toā¦
