I’ll agree with you on one thing; the blood elf zones, and especially Silvermoon, are in dire need of updating and getting relevant. I mean, Orgrimmar and Stormwind are both frequently updated, and not really because the stories or quests involving those cities are more relevant than other capitols. Both of them are also heavily crowded, so much that people experience lagging and unnecessary sharding there, while cities like Silvermoon remain dated and far less used than they should be. Other capitols deserve to be updated to feel as relevant as Orgrimmar and Stormwind. Players would use them if they had similar facilities and access, and felt relevant.

I don’t mind that you’re asking so I hope you don’t object when I argue against it for all obvious reasons.
And I already posted my wishes in your own thread a while back. 
But why are you here arguing with us? Just let us ask our things.
Because it’s an open thread and I, just like everyone am allowed to voice my opposition to your ideas that will only serve to cheapen the race I play.

Further blurring the faction lines.
Advocating to have absolutely everything that make these two particular groups distinct, removed.
Obviously, nothing which is asked to be brought into the game hurts anybody, that would be silly.
I would much rather people put this kind of energy, into asking for something cooler, than just a copy-pasta of a Horde race to be brought into the Alliance.
But then again, we could remember this the next time the Alliance complains about getting a copy-pasta race while the Horde gets something unique.
Shameful, really.
And you did, so why continue?
The faction lines are already blurred along time ago and there are many people who want high elves to be a thing on the alliance and we are on the right track. Just let us ask for our things and you can ask for yours. And don’t forget the horde Nightborne.
Pandaren say hi. They sing a song about how their existence really don’t blur any other lines than those between humans and pandas. High elf NPCs join in. Nightborne hum in the background.
Green eyes, golden eyes, hawkstriders, bracelets, body jewellery, earrings, necklaces, heritage armour, paladins, demon hunters, Silvermoon, Eversong, dragonhawks and arcane torrent all join in and sing that there will still be plenty of differences.
Because you’re continuing to ask for it and I have nothing better to do at the moment.
And it’s hard to forget something so butchered as the Nightborne.
I see you still haven’t edited that useless list.
It’s a good list. Your points against it didn’t really hold.
It’s not utterly irrelevant, but it surely needs some serious tlc.
They look nice, and it’s still beta. A lot of people are thrilled about them.
We’re still hoping they’ll return.
Nope.
Still a unique racial.
So:
Green eyes, golden eyes, hawkstriders, bracelets, body jewellery(?), earrings, necklaces, heritage armour, paladins, demon hunters, Silvermoon, Eversong, dragonhawks and arcane torrent.
Still a good list of uniquely blood elf features, available for Horde players only.
We ask for it because we want blizzard to see it. You can do the same ^^.
Eh… not to the extend it would matter. No one plays pandaren as an example. They are still am mistake, but no one plays them.
The Nightborne are just slightly taller, purple Blood Elves.
Well, they did, and it is why they are largely regarded as a mistake. But you can’t give something and then take it back afterwards, imagine the few people blizzard would have to give a race change in case of pandaren.
Void Elves should have those… except the heritage set, that one has lore to it that prevents it from ending up in the hands of any traitorous elf. And perhaps except green eyes and golden eyes, because void obviously.
Regardless, body jewellery, really? The thing that can’t be seen at all.
One of the things on it literally doesn’t even exist anymore and another was copied and sent over to the Alliance.
The eye colors and classes are really the only substantial things on that list. Rest is fluff that hardly anyone cares about.
They are based of the night elves… xD And if you are trolling you are doing a poor job.

There is a huge community that love to play fully high elves and you say no one cares about it? Tbh most blood elf players are fine with sharing their hair colors. But then again I want the KT hair colors.

Quoted because of editing while several replies were posted.
Well duh, and still, compare them to Night Elves.
Much slimmer, terrible facial options for whatever reason (I hope that gets fixed, I might actually make a Nightborne then), the skin colours are fairly different, some of the hair colours too.
They actually look different.
Much like the Void Elves do… well, until people started advocating for them to look exactly like Blood Elves… which is stupid.
Not when factions matter and Alliance high elves are a thing, and we want to play as those. Then it actually makes a lot of sense.

And I also hope they get fixed but it will take some time. And not really people want to play high elves soo let them ask for what they want and don’t be that guy who wants to ruin everyones fun because he does not agree with it.
Blood Elves already fufilled the High Elf aethestic. Just because it wasn’t Alliance does not matter, they are High Elves in looks, in culture, in lore, etc. Everything about them, is High Elf. Especially following the Sunwell’s restoration.
People don’t want to play High Elves, they want to play Tolkien elves, that is a problem.
I argue against the ruination of lore that I enjoy and had fun with. Where is my sympathy?

You need to ask blizzard on that one ^^… We are here to ask for High elf options nothing more. And Lore wise High elves are alliance.
