1 - You honestly don’t believe the player base back then would call each other twinks out of frustration in battlegrounds as an insult? Because i specifically remember worse being said. I’m not encouraging the behavior, but I’m also not trying to rewrite history here. Both can be true.
2 - Regardless to if you think its rambling nonsense or not you do at least recognize that they were struggling for thematic choices which was the point of even bringing up the comparisons, you’ll notice I never claimed to have any fact or even sources outside of mentioning a population graph in a reply, otherwise it all is speculation of hypothetical situations that maybe could have taken place to start a discussion.
3 - I’m not bigoted, or even unintentionally bigoted, I think exclusion of any kind in any way is harmful to the world around you and makes living in it worse than it needs to be. I also think people with a history of being attacked online, are too eager to write people off when a genuine opinion is trying to be communicated. Stacking the deck in the opposite direction isn’t equality.
I don’t hate either expansion, some bits are hard to stomach and in my opinion could have been done better, but that just means the journey isn’t for me.
