High elf fanatics are entitled kids who throw a temper tantrum because blizzard refused to give them their favorite toy. Thats how bad you are.
Actually all I’ve done is provide factual evidence whilst critiquing hypocrisies and contradictions in my oppositions arguments, no name calling, rheteric or degrading language.
And its usually the same people demanding this and that. High elf fanbase is smaller than the blood elf and blizzard will not risk that. Anyways gonna go play some among us with guildies. I really hope this topic would die out its getting super repetitive

yeah, so small that blizzard gave both blue eyes in an attempt to shut BOTH parties up, because let’s us face it, if high elf fan base is petty, then the blood elf players are just as equally petty.

Not an intellectual discussion for sure. There is nothing in this thread but a lot of entitlement that spits on the so called compromise that was made with the void elves.
So like I said, there’s nothing intellectual to discuss here. In fact I don’t think there’s anything to discuss that’s why people have resorted to repeating their opinions over and over. And I can understand the Horde side, cause they have reason to worry. But no understanding for the Alliance who have been given more than they deserved, in my opinion.
Maybe, but we are bigger than you think. High elves have been the number 1 requested Alliance race for 16 years.
Vanilla: Nope gave us Gnomes instead. Despite High elf NPC’s being present iN Stormwind and Hinterlands under the Alliance.
BC: nope. Went Horde because of faction imbalance under the name Blood elves with Green eyes.
WOTLK: nope. But they added many High elf NPC’s in Dalaran and Northernd further increasing the demand for them
CATA: everyone thought this would be the expansion on where High elves and Ogres would be added. Instead we got Worgens and Goblins. but High elves have a role in Zul Aman.
MOP: big fight between High elves and Blood elves that turn bloody. It was also the expansion with the introduction of a neutral race for both factions (pandaren)
WOD: nope again
Legion: Alleria returned, and Silver covenant have a role In legion. Now can we have them? Nope.
BFA: you can have Purple emo elves instead. High elf fans: 
Shadowlands: have natural skins. Blue and purple eyes.
Finally took them 16 years to give us something we asked for.
Most High elves fans are actually happy with the Void elves we have now (natural skin and all)

If I start with giving you 1 sht and you complain over and over about having to eat it, then I cut that sht in half and tell you to eat that instead, are you entitled to continue to complain?
And clearly your disinterest in the discussion and your dismissal of its’ intellectual value is motivated by your admitted bias towards the Horde view point.

When the new options were announced on the forums a few months ago, I saw a lot of people saying that hair colours and styles would be nice and then they’d be happy but that this was a big improvement. So I wouldn’t say most were entirely satisfied.
I say, thats a bit harsh really.
I look at it this way, Blizzard have stated who canonically finishes off Dark’han Drathir. It is not some nebulous hero, it is not the player, Lor’themar slays him as a mortal, and when he is risen into Undeath it is Liadrin, Champion Vranesh and the starting Blood Knight NPC’s.
This is much the same as in Canon lore, it is the Horde who kill Magtheridon in his Lair, no matter how many times the Alliance players can run the Raid, likewise the Alliance ‘kill’ Illidan in TBC.
Often the Starting zones are representative, or else there would have to be Infinite Hoggers for every starting Alliance Human character. Sometimes as in the above examples Blizzard will state who did the deed, sometimes it is just left blank, but not Every Blood Elf killed Dark’han, we are told who did.
We don’t need to start descending to petty insults, to make a point. Basically. 
The only crap being eaten here is by you pretending this is close to an intellectual discussion and after that analogy it’s clear that any intelligence waved bye-bye to this thread and your post especially.
you completely avoided the meaning of the metaphor. You are being intentionally obtuse and for that, I have no interest discussing with you. I’m glad that I was the one with actual points and you just said how not intellectual this all is.

Whatever. Your metaphor was so out of place. I guess you thought it was the best thing ever, but it’s not. Just like this isn’t a discussion, it’s a demand on one side and a heartly no on the other. That’s it. Prattle on about intellect all you want. Won’t change that fact. And it won’t change the fact that velfs were a compromise that got sweetened with several more customization options way ahead of the other allied races, some of which are in desperate need of options themselves, but here we are, with overly entitled people making demands. So spare the bs, please.

LOL, what that supposed to mean? Forums are for asking, and discussion…?
Right. Silver Covenant Elves who would look like a Reskin of Void Elves, who are a Reskin of Blood Elves.
Thats pretty simple to follow. And why not? If you want High Elves, such as the Silver Covenant, then that -is- what you want, as if you don’t want that, you don’t want High Elves do you? What would you see the race looking like instead?
CDev Round 3, specifically the question where they are asked to explain how the eye colours for Elves work. I mean you can look it up on Wowpedia with the links if you like, but I will quote it for you here.
Question: How did the blood elven eye glint become so widespread? The Warcraft Encyclopedia states that Rommath only taught the blood elves of Azeroth about how to siphon arcane magic, as most of the populace would likely be “horrified” if they knew the true extent of Kael’thas’ dealings with Illidan?
Answer from the Dev’s
" The situation regarding blood elf eyes is, in fact, extremely similar to that of the green skin of orcs: just being around heavy use of fel magic turned the eyes of the blood elves green. You could be the most pious of priests or most outdoorsy of Farstriders, chances are, if you were a high elf (emphasis mine) in Quel’Thalas or Outland, you were around fel energies, and your eyes would turn green. Like the orcs’ skin color, such an effect would take a very long time to wear off. Fel magic works a bit like radiation in this sense; it permeates the area and seeps into anything in the vicinity. Anything near a source of fel magic shows signs of slight corruption, it just so happens that high elves and orcs manifest it in a very visual way.
There’s ya source.
In fairness, you have no way of knowing the truth of that remark. It is highly -likely- that the High Elf Fanbase is smaller than the Blood Elf one, but you can neither state that it is truth or mistruth, because like everyone here, you cannot prove that one way or the other.
Lets stop confusing opinions with facts, and stick to what we -know-, which will yield a much more productive conversation all round.

no, Silver covenant elves who like like highelves, that’s all.
well, your assumptions are vague…
So you want Thalassian Elves, yes? So Blood Elf Model, Blue eyes, on Alliance. Simple question. If your answer is no, then what changes would you see to the Blood Elven model to make it look more like a High Elf in your mind? Wings? Horns, Hooves?
Did you actually read my post? Did you read it, or just assume?
I -SAID- none of us could know for sure! I literally typed that! Because I have the self awareness to know the difference between Opinion and Fact.

highelves such as Sc elves, ?
yes you assumed about highelf fan base…
So you want the Blood Elf model, with blue eyes, Playable on Alliance, right? I mean that is what a High Elf looks like? That is what a member of the Silver Covenant looks like in both lore and game.
Let me refresh your memory.
“In fairness, you have no way of knowing the truth of that remark. It is highly -likely- that the High Elf Fanbase is smaller than the Blood Elf one, but you can neither state that it is truth or mistruth, because like everyone here, you cannot prove that one way or the other.”
‘Everyone’ means I include myself in that remark…
Stop trying to cherry pick the words, and next time read the damn response before formulating your own based on what you imagine someone to have said, instead of what they actually did say.
