Don't tell me you don't get what he's saying. Just because one case is alot more serious than the other doesn't mean you cant still make the analogy.

Oh I get exactly what he's saying. He uses a cheap tactic to invalidate everyone else's opinion with an overly dramatic comparison.
It's nothing more than an insult.

Comparing a real world issue that ruins lives to a silly in-game "I wanna!" isn't a valid analogy.


Yes it is, people against gay marriage are against something that has ZERO effect on their lives.

People against High Elves are against something that has ZERO effect on them.

Keeping the difference real life vs game, you can clearly see that both people are the same. They feed on everyone else being as miserable as they are, that is the only reason they would oppose something that doesn't impact them in any way shape or form.

We're not trying to shut you guys up. As you said, Blizzard asked for feedback and opinions - we're giving our opinion on why they shouldn't be added.
What, exactly, at this point, are those reasons?

One would think that 5000 posts later you'd have gotten the idea?

Oh, hey, Freedom, thanks for classifying us as 'miserable' simply because we don't agree with the demand. :p

I find it offensive that you assumed I am a CIS gender male, for your information I am Genderfluid and I support gay marriage.
He didn't assume that and you're not funny.

I like how most of the people who dont want the high elves, are hordies.
Its not supposed to be for your faction, its for the Alliance.
Most of the votes who want the high elves, are from the blue faction.

I could switch to an alliance character if you want.

That might be his intention, but I don't think it invalidates the people with proper game and lore related arguments, just the ones saying no because they don't want it period.

Again, I don't know his intentions, but I think an analogy can still be made about specifically the nay sayers.

No I think the analogy ended at "being against something that doesn't effect them."

I could clearly feel his passive aggressiveness in the way he talked, like I don't know what it is like to be discriminated against. So rude, I feel sick now.
I dont want Helf (my main since bc)

I've heard alot of reasons, some are very valid ones we have had long discussions about. But from my experience the majority of the nay sayers don't actually have that same reason, which is why I ask every time I can.

Well I haven't been against High Elves for Alliance at all, so long as they have a unique model. After thinking about it further though, I am against it. I want them for Horde instead.
No to High Elves! Down with High Elves! Raahhhhhh!

Give me a moment as I ponder the true meaning of this is philosophical detail.
Yeah ive noticed a big difference between alliance and horde actually.

Alliance usually goes like "i want a whiter elf on my faction nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow" and horde is like "oh we didnt get shattered hand maghar as an allied race, well lets just play the game and hope it happens one day."

I know what faction to main in bfa.

Nice strawmen.

You're a funny little troll :P
For anyone interested, this MMO-champion thread has some interesting pictures regarding high elves. I have not read the thread, So I don't say I agree with what it says, but the pictures look very interesting. Scroll down a bit and you'll see them if you're interested.

Hahaha... Oh wait.. You're serious?

You actually believe someone's choice of faction in a video game is an acceptable measurement of one's maturity?
Ho-Lee-Sheet.. Either you're trolling, you're stupid or you take your personal experiences as evidence for your preconceived opinions..

Because I refuse to believe anyone is that stupid and it would be too obvious an attempt at trolling, I choose to believe the latter..

I play both factions.. What does that make me? A mature brat? A bratty adult?

I've met more rude people while playing Horde.. But do I believe every single Horde player is an a-hole? No.. I realize that that's just my personal experience, and I won't let that make me paint an entire group of people based on what a few d-bags did earlier..

Actually its both trolling and personal experience. I just dont understand why alliance wants a whiter void elf renamed high elf when horde doesnt talk about renaming redeyed maghar orcs Blackrock orcs or minor things like that.

The Mag'har orcs already have the shattered hand option though, don't they? The pale skin tone with tons of scars and a school of piercings. If not shattered hand then who are those supposed to be?
