And yet here we are, still talking about it

Hey Lydon, how have you been? I still want high elves as their own AR, but realize it’s not likely if this is the route they are going.

Of course it is. Why does this surprise you? Lore is as useful as last weeks tabloid. It changes from moment to moment.

Everyone knows that Blizzard will never give way to see the alliance get the thing they have been asking for since the game came out.

The Horde never asked for it before they got it to stem their decreasing numbers. But having been gifted with the holy grail, they will share of it not a drop but under the direst protest.

How laudable.

Everyone knows that the devs would rather burn the whole game than give in to the Alliance, all the while tossing the Horde cookie after cookie.

This concession is the closest it will ever come and its a just a few clicks short of miraculous to see it.

As usual, the Alliance has no choice but to take what they are given and make the best of it.

And still nay-saying cruelty pundits can’t stand for even a near orbit to happiness. Still they grasp at any way to tear at the brittle plaster of what the Alliance has to work with.

So yes, while the Horde sits on its embarrassment of riches lobbing insults across the divide, the Alliance has to find a way to be as okay as they can with the leftovers spilled from the table.

And applying imagination is part of that.

How canny of you to spot it.

Please, resume attempts to take even more from the Alliance’s nearly bare table, already in progress clearly.

Paladins? Peas?

I’ve seen the organist hair for NEs but iam still hoping for platinum blonde myself.

I’m actually really loving all the night elf customization so far coming in shadowlands.

The white hair they have looks ok, I can’t imagine platinum blonde looking too bad either, with the right skin tone anyway.

This is why “Why Primers don’t work: A High Elf” was a successful thread.

These Anti-High Elfers are the same as High Elfers. Spamming endlessly.

Void elves are way cooler than pansy high elves anyway.

I dunno why we needed another thread…

Sometimes people with a differing view want to get a word in. Did we need another one? No, but it’s not like he made a third or fourth ‘replace void elves’ or ‘high elf love/positivity thread’ then bumped them all.

You say it like as if I have been doing it… :woman_shrugging:

I dunno, just like those threads, I wish all threads about High Elves would just finally die. Yes, I do support High Elves, but in a way, we’re getting our High Elves through the Void Elves with customisations, and what has only been confirmed does not mean there is no more to come. Customisations is going to be an ongoing process, and we do not need to change our name to be who we want to be.

I did not do that. I literally did not use any language to assign responsibility to you. However, some posters just went and bumped all those threads (after 2 weeks of inactivity) and made a few new ones. Funny you should complain about it here.

There’s an ‘anti’ thread like every six months.

Eh… Maybe should’ve seen the forums a short while before they announced the Void Elves thread. There was quite a few High Elf threads made by Anti’s… But could be part of a different group of people spamming those threads, just like the threads made by the Pro’s could’ve been made by a seperate group of pro’s.

I dunno what it is like with the community on the Anti discord, but on our discord, we’re advised from spamming the forums with topics.

That was an exception as there was a development, and that’s not today or even relevant.

Again, never assigned responsibility.

As I’m sure you read this thread, the OP is not in the Discord. I will however take your disingenuous advice meant to create blame, and ignore it - because this is just an exercise in tribalism. You are however welcome to offer your advice in the 4 or so other threads going. I’m sure you really care enough about forum spam to do so.

You know what would be funny? Release high elves as a race but give them absolutely no racial. I mean none. They would look the same as current races but have the name “High Elf” but yet have no racial at all.
