Should Blood Elves get the new diversed human skin tones in SL?

I just want to know if I can now use “You’re” and “Your” interchangeably, or if that isn’t mistaken commonly enough yet to be considered correct.

You can mix those up over my grave and no sooner

The reason why the Alliance gets these regional human race skins is likely because they wager on a faction change so that some Belf-players want to switch to Alliance and make authentic (…) Afro-American or Asian player characters. Well, I surely want to have all three subraces at one point in my WoW-life. However, better question would be how they will manage the Gilnean with this change.

Just think about the impact it will maybe have on the Asian wow-players.

While that may be true, blood elves and their lore aren’t tied to the mythos of Middle Earth and the rules Tolkien may have laid down are frankly irrelevant far as wow’s lore is concerned.

I morph into a noldor and immediately begin arguing that Feanor did nothing wrong in-game.

Never forget that Svartalfar or Dokkalfar may just be dwarves.

“but tolkien” is an irrelevant argument when 3/4 of the playable elf races are either blue or purple
non-blue void elves are not valid.

Don’t know about ya’ll but I take everything from Tolkien. My orc is an elf who was twisted and tortured by Melkor for starters.

Okay unironically here’s number 5:

Between 1850 & 1890, 27 laws to improve the state of British housing were passed; but no matter the ruling party, the central government in London was as reluctant to enforce these laws as local governments were to use them. From 1875-90, only 11 local governments took advantage of the new laws to demolish their resident slums: but of those 11, only 4 bothered to replace them with anything better
