Technically you share skin colours and hair colours.
Or at least close enough to them that an argument could be made that they’re too similar.
Should we cut down those colour options?

There needs to be a reason for things, Blood Elves and Void Elves share things but they are supposedly different races, they shouldn’t which is why I said about Void Elves being void, Alleria being voided out and High Elf NPC’s being made Void Elf NPC’s to begin with.
I figure you should at least have a case for something rather than just saying it.
I would delete my Nightborne and the Nightborne race if it means Void Elves go too.
Changing her now makes no sense. Literally none. Her going from being able to switch between void and normal forms to only able to be in void form makes no sense. If they had left her in void from from the start, which I honestly think they should have done, and was admittedly what I thought they would do the 1st time I did that questline, it would be fine. At this point that ship has sailed, and forcing her to be void all the time wouldn’t make any sense.

Wow, thanks for having consideration for what I like to play.
As my point was about the theoretical precedent for removal, I feel like you’re dancing around what I’ve said without addressing it properly.
I would oppose you vehemently on that.
I oppose the removal of races from the game, and of customization options that Blizzard has already added.

I already told you in another post when we talked about that, you played something else before Void Elves even existed, I asked the same question then and I’ll ask the same one now, would it really be so bad to go back to playing what you played before?
Race is kind of a dodgy topic in WoW when aliens from two different planets can have a kid and highborn Tyrande knew personally as a kid and who may be related to her can be, respectively, a satyr, a snake monster, a nightborn, or a blood elf (oh Lorash, you lollore).
I was this close from going back to playing only Horde again right before they announced the new velf options in Shadowlands. So yes, I wouldn’t go back to what I was playing on the Alliance before.
If they hadn’t have added the options, I don’t know if I would be playing the Alliance anymore.
If they gave it to me, then took it away, I’d quit without a second thought.

Cool. I wouldn’t.
I LIKE my Nightborn. They could use a lot of work, but they’re cool and I like the lore.

That would be a personal choice then, which I also told you previously and while unfortunate it would still be a personal choice.
I’m certainly not the only one who would quit the game if they started taking things away from people.

I really don’t think the masses would quit playing if they took away natural skintones from Void Elves, I really don’t, you didn’t have them before and if you didn’t have them again it would be like before you had them.
And how long until Blizzard comes for their stuff if they’re going to do that?
More people than me would have this thought.

It wouldn’t, as it would involve the precedent of removing things that you had.
To circle back to the gear comparison you made earlier, it would be like Blizzard removing that from your mog list.
Not taking away the ability to get it.
Taking it away from you because they decided that it shouldn’t have been added.

What else is shared from one race to another that causes such an uproar from it being shared? I mean if Blizzard went with how I said about Alleria being voided out, High Elf NPC’s being changed to Void Elf NPC’s, etc. it would all fit exactly how it should have fit to begin with being Void Elves because they are Void Elves not Blood Elves.

Except what reason do they have to suddenly turn her blue after she hasn’t been for years, other than a terrible retcon?
And that would be ground breaking why? They change lore and retcon things all the time.
That type of retcon would be like “We changed our minds. The Sunwell wasn’t actually restored in TBC, so your gold eyes never existed at all. Just forget all that time you had them for”.
Another way you could put it is: it would be like if they decided that they liked that bit in Exploring Azeroth: The Eastern Kingdoms where Christie Golden said that “blood elves were addicted to absorbing fel magic”, so that’s their canon now.
