If my memory is right all stars are either blueish white, pure white or red.
Gameplay issues (like player participation in high end content) need gameplay solutions, no more and no less. If cosmetics alone were good enough to drawn back players to the faction, the Horde would had never gone past 30% tops of the whole playerbase.
As harsh as it sounds, people using the “but Alliance is DYING!!” excuse to justify their beggar behaviour related to customization stuff are just using a dishonest excuse to justify a preferential treatment for themselves. And to add insult to injury they denigrate a serious problem for the Alliance community as something that can be solved appealing to people´s subjective tastes (and this is a low blow. I don´t think people rolled Horde to raid in mythic difficulty cause they found the Orcs and Trolls prettier than any Alliance race).
They´re the dishonest party here, Moon. Pitifully, they are dishonest with themselves… cause one must realize that personal choices aren´t replicable in the masses. And maybe them as RPers would happily erase all and every Horde toon they have to jump and play their Vanilla Elves; but the rest of the Alliance players that left because they genuinely wanted to advance in high end content? Nope, for those people how the toons looks is irrelevant, what is relevant is performance and player pool.
Something that RPers may not be able to fulfill at truly high end levels of gameplay.
LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK, FEN!!!
This. Ty for basically resuming the REAL issue related to the lack of player participation in compettitive high end content Alliance side. Cause is NOT about a race, nor even about a class. Is about players self fulfilling their profecies.
My dude, if Mercenary mode proved something, is that you don´t need to even entertain a story explanation for gameplay tools that let players from different factions jump together.
Something as simple as letting people from both factions use the same LFG / LFR tools and joing in mixed guilds would be enough, period.
“Buut, buut!!! The RPers!!!”… I have frankly seen them concocting even more WTF arguments on their day to day basis regarding the canon lore, let them invent whatever excuse they need to create their conjoined guilds and move on.
Excuse us all, but it is time someone tells the Goblin that he is NOT entitled to our attention no matter how many temper tantrums he throws.
No, the idea that people HAS TO interact with other people by force or else is frankly, criminal. Sorry not sorry but as far as I remember the Human Rights include precisely liberties and part of those liberties is the right to cease comunication with individuals one doesn´t want to comunicate with, PERIOD.
There´s a forever option. I use that one.
As per their actual portrayal, the true goths ARE the Forsaken.
Considering they probably just want to continue with the insults tirade and harrasement, charge them triple. Make it worth your time.
