What are you talking about because this makes no sense to me.
My apologies. Wish the people who were closing it saw the benefit of keeping it open
You mentioned earlier that it looks bad for the Pro Helfers to constantly create new threads (I am against that, the issue needs to cool off.) why does it not look bad when Anti High elf groups create threads to oppose them? Or post in the other high elf threads to keep it going? It seems just a bad to me.

I mean it does, it does work both waysâŚbut at the same time; there really isnt a widespread amount of anti-helf threads after the primer got closed. SureâŚone pops up again sometime, but its usually by someone who was never part of the debate to begin with.
On top of that, threads on customization that remotely mention eye color for blood elves gets talked to death of high elves.
A thread like the Primer worked for its time becauseâŚit reduced the toxic nature of the megathread by a margin; sure, people still came into argue and debate and whineâŚbut it wasnt to the extent as it was before the Primer.
Same reason you guys post in those high elf threads to keep it going.

Thatâs funny, youâre a lot more direct when youâre telling the antis off despite not having any evidence that we did anything and with the knowledge that mods will shut down or lock threads if they feel the people in them are being toxic than yesterday when your lot openly admitted to flagging the Primer thread.

Its not, I literally said this:
Its also someone who isnt a focal face or has participated in the megathread before, soâŚwhy should we look bad for every dumb anti-helf thread?
I mean, didnt Drede and other helf posters say they shouldnt be blamed from the bad, baiting, and dumb helf threads? Its a two-way street, remember?

My bad, I do think Iâll try and keep myself better contained to the mega. Sometimes itâs not worth the time on the these other threads for various reasons. 
Iâd rather see more variations for the core races tbh. But high elves are a plus for me
Thanks Bourbon 
Its a bait thread to begin with since a lot of what the poster shows offâŚare ideas that Horde and Alliance players thought of for ARs that are semi-popular (not tier one, but tier two or three).
It just pops off because it says âHigh elfâ and its negative.
High Elf fans using a different thread to post when their main thread is locked by flagging: SPAM!
Someone making a thread to troll High Elfers and calling them whiners: Legit thread, not spam, not trolling.
looks up
I guess we are trying to start fights this early.
Wasnât directing at you.
A few days ago other posters were saying that every High Elf thread is a spam thread while defending threads made to troll High Elf fans.
Very bad timing then.
Some of them are, some of them arent. You can say the same thing about opposition threads too.
To be fair here - there are several people supporting High Elves who have very specifically stated they want no opposition voiced in the megathread, that theyâll ignore those voices, and that people opposed should be silent.
That rightly moves to âOk, then itâs reasonable to have a thread dedicated to an opposing viewpoint.â which was followed by the Primer thread being flag bombed to locked status, multiple times before finally being 404âd.
It canât be both, my friend; either both viewpoints are welcome in the megathread (and civility should be the word of the day for both camps) or arguments against High Elves belong in a thread that is left alone by High Elf supporters.

I told people not to flag the primer thread, if you missed it. I donât condone flagging and celebrating the shutdown of customization request threads either, I was supportive of them
I mean Iâm a helfer, sometimes my bias shows, but I like to think Iâm fairly neutral from time to time
You canât bomb a thread into non-existence, you can keep it locked, but not outright 404 it, that requires the hand of a mod.
Itâs more than time for stop spreading misinformation.
I actually donât think people believe on this, but since they have to blame someone for it, they do it on the High Elf people.
Thatâs all fine, and there are many antis that I really like discussing issues with, free, open and civil discourse is totally fine and I am on board with that. Not on board with either side trollin eachother, but in todays pop culture trolling is unfortunately encouraged.

Did someone lock the megathread again?
