All the events after the pilgrimage are in Moonglade and you are free to come join us there. But as this is Kaldorei focussed, not everyone is likely to have Elixir of Tongues and reception can differ per player.

How this comes across to me is that youâd pretty much want to forbid people from celebrating Lunar Festival in their own way, or Moonrisers hosting an event inspired by lore based on Lunar Festival. Itâs similar as if youâd try to forbid people from celebrating Christmas with a family or community somewhere, because itâs not the same as how Christmas was traditionally hundred or perhaps thousand years ago, or how itâs celebrated in different cultures.
They arenât breaking or trying to own any lore here. If youâd rather host your own version, nobody is stopping you, Neridris!
Imho Moonrise Hermitageâs folk have been creating both lore-friendly and quality events for the larger community to participate into, at their own choice. Iâd recommend their server events to anyone who wants to take a peek into RP which is inspired by night elven traditions!

Because youâre mixing the message and the messenger. My demonstration is unchallenged and based on the lore of the game. I am the one who did it, but you know anyone else would be able to. Sure, you can keep attacking me and portraying criticism as hate, but why do you do it?
If YoU dIdNât LikE thE MoVie MaYbE Make YoUr OwN FirSt.
Sorry.
I just proved the opposite. And I am glad you posted this because it strengthen my point: People blindly believe the Kaldorei Community Lore is flawless because they are older players, so they know what they are doing. But itâs not true. And while it doesnât prevent anyone to have fun, itâs also fair to point and challenge the view.
Theyâre just making an event tailored towards a specific audience. Theyâve never claimed its all theirs and that no one else can come but the celebrations are being done by the night elf in this particular scenario.
Youâve got such a non-complaint going on that could easily be resolved by (as much as you just memeâd it) making your own preferred one? Just feels like bait at this point, and yes Iâve fed into it.
Annnnyway, being back from a long break for a few weeks now. This may be the perfect opportunity for me to engage myself in the night elf community properly again, so Iâm looking forwards to it. Hoping to see some old faces and maybe meet some news ones too. Lunar Festival events have often always been fun!

Youâre polluting an event thread with pointlessly aggressive arguments. Literally your first line in your first post in this thread was aggressive and antagonistic. Youâre arguing a lore position or infringement that nobody is taking, or making. And now, youâre trying to play it off as if youâre merely presenting your own view in a civil manner.
Overall, you seem to be arguing lore points as if all characters and RP must copy current NPC thinking and emotions. We play characters, theoretically real people who think and feel for themselves. Characters that have preferences. They do not slot perfectly into a version of the lore that you can then arrive on the realm forum to try to bludgeon people over the head with, though it is, of course, much easier to attempt to wield your supposedly ironclad idea of the lore when needlessly trying to stir trouble over nothing. When trying to name police public events. When trying to tell people where to host their events.
Presumably youâll grow into some form of empathy and common sense, given some years. The pointlessly rude style, the attempts at telling people what they can or should RP when or where, it all stinks of someone who feels as if they have authority over some area of RP. Well, let me be the bearer of bad news. You donât have any authority. Just as I donât, just as really nobody does. We have what is given to us. The people youâre yelling at have been offered this trust for quite a few years, now. I havenât seen you at any point trying to make some magical âcorrectâ version of this public event on your own. Itâs easy but juvenile to be destructive.

I am not. If you post about a global event in the lore, name your personal event after it and miss a step in its interpretation on a public forum, youâre bound to have people post. I am not sure what point youâre trying to make? If not here where should I post? I should not post? Sorry, but youâre not someone allowed to tell me this, if you want moderation on who posts, you should do that on your private forums. Backseat moderators are the worse.
Iâve offered suggestions, they may be declined, accepted or acknowledged as they did. It hurts no one to ignore them, or ignore me.
Sadly, I have no time. Though Iâve offered to pay for [Elixir of Tongue] on both Horde&Alliance attending the event. Contact me through the forum or an in game mail and Iâll provide as much as necessary for the week.
On the side, I am not feeding into your personal attacks despite the number of hearts/support they received.

I believe you expressed your opinion a lot on our events. As we explained before, we will not change anything to accommodate Horde, as we have been planing this for the kaldorei-community, and logically, for Alliance players.
As you also saw with the other replies that did focus on the events, we donât refuse Horde Players, we just donât plan to do extra work for them. If they decide to come, it is with the knowledge that they are attending to an event that has not be curated for them.
As a final word, we, as the organisers, would all like if the debate was ending here, from both side. Thanks you very much.

Really happy to see this happening again this year, thanksso much for stepping up and organising!
I see itâs mainly catered to the Kaldorei community, but would a Draenei wanderer with ties to Ashenvale okay to attend as well?

Perfectly well ! Draeneis, as well as worgens have been long-time friends of the kaldorei. In general, anyone from the Alliance who is willing to respect the kaldorei traditions is completly welcome.

Other than that, good luck to nelf gamers!

I remember attending one year on a char (not sure which nowâŚ) and it was a nice event! All the best for this year.
I think Steve Jobs said that.
Hi everyone!
We have added a detailed program with more information about every event. I hope it will help you to prepare your character. We are very excited to give you all a great time! I cannot wait to see what outfits you will wear, what costumes we will see at the contest and what new friendships will be found during this full week of festivities.
Please do not hesitate to contact us with questions, we will gladly help you and welcome all aid to make this festival even better.

Very nice and substantiated input that is obviously maliciously construed by this shut-in nelf community as unfounded interference
The only actual counter argument made here anyways is âBut itâs my event I do what i want =)â â yeah, you guys are very obviously doing that, but it doesnât make Neridrisâ post any less valid. Just accept that your forum-wide / server-wide announced event does not align with Warcraftâs lore and call it something like Nelf bubble RP event #12309035

I support use of Elixir of Tongues so it is at least open for Horde to attend? Even if not catered for (like its not catered for races outside of nelves)
Either way good luck.

As we draw closer to the final preparations, we can finally present you the two maps for the week of events !
The first one is in the Nighthaven Market paragraph, with a detailled placement of all the market stalls. The list of stall will be updated soon with the participants we already know.
The second map is at the end of the main post, with a large overview of the meeting points for the different events !

This looks lovely, Iâve always had pleasant experiences with your events, and my hunter Miraldia attended the last pilgrimage and it was very worthwile. I may swing around!

Lovely initiative - Iâll be sure to waltz in and drag with me a handful of friends who also have cranky old WotA veterans!
I am assuming Kaldorei and Highborne mages, since they have been more or less reintegrated into Kaldorei society, might be given a side-eye or two (which I do not mind at all) but are not fundamentally unwelcome?

We canât guarantee that everyone will jump on their feet while seeing a cohort of highborne and kaldorei mages, but we surely wonât mind as the organisers ! Itâs a time of celebration, after all. Old grudges donât die easily but Iâm sure it will be put aside for the time of the festivities.
