Of course it has happened on both sides, silly. Since the dawn of Azeroth. But since WM and BfA came out horde in general have had the upper hand in numbers otherwise blizz wouldn’t have done a damn thing.
It’s been exactly this.
WM will eventually go back to being Horde controlled because the lack of a bribe will get players to turn it back off.
Leave warmode for the people who actually, genuinely enjoy WPvP. I never got rewarded for playing on a PvP realm other than the usual angry whispers.
No I dont’ trust what you say because it’s just not true. ‘Their own interest’ is making a game that everyone enjoys because that’s why they get paid.
Actually, it’s pretty naive to think that the devs can possibly keep the game balanced when they only care about one side, or that the devs openly mocking one faction for over a decade would have no effect even if the game itself was perfectly balanced (which even the devs admit it wasn’t).

Whatever, I’m done as I’ve stated my point. You clearly disagree, further discourse on the subject would not be constructive.
There is absolutely no evidence to back up your exaggerated claims.
And this is why I don’t care for PvP in a nutshell.
And no I didn’t turn it on.
It’s nice to see more Alliance out and about, however, I still remember plenty of Alli groups of 15 or so, camping the FPS. I think the bump to 30% was a bit excessive, but it is what it is.
I deal with it the same way…
Watch a group of Alliance from a distance and when they notice me and start to chase me, I run back to the group of Horde milling around the FP and enjoy the action. I learned this tactic from Alliance that did it to me! Lol.
As I said before, let’s see how the dust settles on the patch. It’s still too early to tell if the incentives are working 100% as designed (unlikely).
any hints of game self interest are gone when an even greater self-interest overrides it. Blizzard and its employees get paid because people enjoy the game, if they were purposely favoring one faction over the other, this kills the game, thus they do not get payed. Being payed, eating, having a stable job are far more important than any amount of self-interest they have in p[laying horde/alliance.

They’ve openly mocked one faction for over a decade? Get real dude. They made one comment at this years Blizzcon and all of a sudden its “Oh woe is me. They’ve made fun of me and my faction for X amounts of years. Herp de derp.”

Could have sworn they also joked about the Horde at previous blizzcons about how they are going through warchiefs like nothing.

The bonus is for a minority faction, no? Times could change and the Horde would get this if we get outnumbered. Unless I dont’ understand it that could happen from moment to moment depending on the immediate population in the shard your’e on.
Man, this has been a long year.

Exactly this too.
But its funny how we forget things we choose to be ignorant on instead of relaying the entire picture and not just little snippits we want to show off.

Oh we’re not talking massive and dumb things, we’re talking spending more time on horde zones etc. Small things that they can justify as “it needed to happen” or “I just didn’t get to it”. In general horde bias in the game is probably less than 1% overall if it’s measurable. My point was more about people in general acting in their own subconscious self interest. Basically when facing a decision that is almost equal in choice, they will choose the option that could or does favor them even if only very slightly.

Sure, but because of a few instances many years ago it means all the devs are biased and the entire story team is against the Alliance. lol

Telling the whole truth is rarely useful to one’s narrative…
