I mean, the Forsaken didn't until just recently. What was the reasoning before?
- Death Knights liberated of the Lich King, then proceeded to go back to their factions, talk to their leaders, fight for their friends.

- Forsaken liberated from the Lich King. Proceeded to murder all humans in Lordaeron despite having a deal with them and then start creating plague.

There's a big difference between one and the other.
They wear Blue and Gold and pretend to be "moral".

Forsaken don't give a damn.

That's why.

Yeah, but maybe if Alliance had accepted them... they wouldn't have burned down the tree, you know?

Maybe they real mad they can't be with their fam.
Clearly someone didn't play through the DK campaign.
To get into Lore, the Alliance Tolerate the Knights of the Ebon blade because while yes they are undead they are extremely powerful and keep to themselves in their necropolis. The forsaken hatred is much older and stems from Sylvannas killing an alliance general that helped her take back lorderon from some dreadlords and Scourge.

Since the forsaken lore wise follow the word of Sylvannas and Sylvannas is kinda hated by the Alliance it makes sense. The horde doesnt exactly like DKs either if you remember how they act towards you after leaving the starting zone.
It's not about what they are, it's about what they do. The actions of Sylvannas are far worse than anything the Ebon Blade has done.

And, it's not the Forsaken either. Many forsaken are perfectly fine and want peace. If we could just get rid of Sylvanas, I'm sure our relationships would improve a lot.
You're asking too many questions....

Yeah but still the fanprogs of the Undead Britney clone blubbers "But But they're not evil!!!!!"
Time to learn something.

The forsaken tried to get into contact with the Alliance barely even MONTHS after the scourge wiped out all of lordaeron and then was a major factor in the return of the burning legion. Then some zombie looking fellow tries to walk up to you, when your kingdoms had been recently destroyed by the undead what are you going to do?

And then by the time the Death Knights came around, the forsaken had already been solidified into the Horde, there was no point to try and "win them back." Then the Wrathgate happened, and just about any good will the alliance had for the forsaken evaporated.

Also, Death Knights had the word of Highlord Tirion Fordring, a hero of the Alliance (and friend of Eitrigg for the Horde), to bring them into the fold. Sylvanas also killed Garithos even though he held up his end of the deal.

Blame Sylvanas. Anduin set up a summit for the forsaken to meet with their living relatives and Sylvanas slaughtered EVERY single forsaken that went, and Calia Menithil.

Blizzard wrote them that way. Alliance players aren't at fault for the hypocritical behavior any more than Horde players are at fault for the burning of Teldrassil. It's all just the fictional world Blizzard writes that we find ourselves trying to fit our characters into.

Oh, lighten up ffs.

If you think that was a serious answer I don't know what to say.
Cause factions.... I think the decision isn’t supported in lore and exists only cause blizzard wanted factions.

There is no functional difference between dks n forsaken.

I say if the forsaken wants to join the alliance we let them. The same goes for all races.... atm both factions are racists!
Death Knights, whether horde or alliance do not want to kill and raise the living. They are also loyal not only to the ebon blade but also their original faction. MOST Forsaken are loyal to no one but their queen, the exception being the forsaken who joined the argent crusade.

Alliance doesn't have problem with undead for being undead. The Forsaken just were always aggressive. I don't see where's the hypocrisy.
