Silvermoon should stay Horde

[Erevien-die-aldor (Erevien)]

No. Go away.

[Kentarro-argent-dawn]

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a, Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me

Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love you.

The irony is rich, since seeing Silvermoon on the horde in the first place is BEACUSE faction aligned cities were touched.

Though with TFT and so also Classic the Sin’dorei where no longer part of the Alliance but instead an enemy faction for both Alliance and Horde.

@Starstride-nordrassil

Seriously what do you expect, when the existence of the blood elves and Nightborne is because they borrowed heavily from the alliance, instead of create new races for them, yet using cities strongly tied to high elves and night elves

Actually Kaldorei to the Alliance and Forsaken to the Horde whas a deliberate move. At the end of TFT just like in Legion with the Nightborne, both factions where allied with the Kaldorei while non whas friends of the Forsaken. The Kaldorei could have easily given to the Horde and then Alliance would instead have now Humans in all variants and Blood Elves.

@Starstride-nordrassil

You clearly weren’t playing Warcraft round those times. Saying the blood elves would join the horde was what was considered crazy…but look what happened aye.

Yeah because by the end of TFT they looked like an evil faction similar to the Forsaken.
But well if it is about joining factions both factions are equally unsuitable.
First alliance that wanted to kill all of them.
Second Horde that burned half of their lands.

I swear all alliance elf fans skipped the game after Warcraft 2

@Erevien-die-aldor

No one likes Orgrimmar and Thunderbluff not even their fans because they know they aren’t real cities if you compare them to the good alliance stuff.

Eh I really love Orgrimmar, though I think that the Classic Version looked better but personally I feel that Orgrimmar has a way better layout then Stormwind especially since the Portal Room.

Those night elves still are in there who mutated into a different kind of elf after the radiation of the Nightwell hit them.

The city was built and completed long before the Sundeirng, It was the jewel of the night elf civilization before the discovery of fel and the arrival of the Legion and long before the shield and isolation.

Dude, some of the people who built Suramar went out to fight to protect it. In fact, it is likely that most of the people who built the city would have gone out to defend it. We are not told specifically.

Either way, you realise those who remained in the city are not the exclusive builders and owners of it right? Many of the people left to fight the Legion in Zin’Azshari, some stayed behind. And those who went to fight or were out visiting or elsewhere don’t suddenly stop being from their city because they get locked out of it by those inside.

To come out and say the ones who stayed behind built the city is incorrect. The city was built well before the sundering and the creation of the Nightwell.

Okay let us assume you are right, still most of Ereviens comment hold.
Because Silvermoon whas build by the fathers of those that are currently the Blood Elves and maybe even some of the original builders too. Of those that went out to protect their city there are only two groups feaseable.
The High Elves that went with Jaina Proudmoure and the one that went with Alleria Windrunner. Both got the offer to return to their homeland after the third war but the Expedition High Elves rather remained in Theramore and the one in Allerian Stronghold openly renounced that what happened to the citizens of Quel’thalas made them no longer Kin with them and that they will never be able to return to their homeland again because to much has changed.
So except for Alleria Windrunner there is no one really out there anymore that has a claim on QT except for their still living owners.

@Sodachen-lothar

wouldn’t that be misanthropy not racism?

Correct. But that is not in the code of conduct right?

Spoiler alert much

[Erevien-die-aldor (Erevien)]

Is the alliance bias gone yet?

[Livía-aerie-peak (Livía)]

There is a gnome behind you.

[Erevien-die-aldor (Erevien)]

I know you are joking but I doubt Blizzard will notice me. They only monitor the american forums and reddit.

Everyone knows and admit with decent honesty that putting blood elves in horde was a big 2007 mistake, only zoomers and people with bad faith or bad lore knowledge can claim “olol Silvermoon/BE are horde 4 ever”

Only if you consider the people who think the opposite to not be worthy of an opinion then yes, ‘everyone’ is correct
otherwise you’d be suprised how many would just quit their accounts if they ever woke up to “Blood elves are now alliance”

Everyone loves to point towards the interview where one dev claimed that pretty race was a factor but there was a ton of worldbuilding set in place to make it make sense and if you asked me the stage was set in WC3 when they started working with Naga and other forces antagonistic to the alliance that the Blood Elves and the Humans would not last long as allies

Bring into play the whole geographical location of the blood elves being entirely cut off from the rest of the alliance, the forsaken being run by a former ranger general who helped htem reclaim the ghostlands before they joined the horde (iirc you formally do when you are told to meet the warchief after completing the ghostlands but its been a while so I might be wrong there); they did the work to make it fit.

Also, being an elf race in the alliance means your lore and culture is doomed to ‘humans with pointy ears’, an image they’ve been trying to pull the night elves away from since BFA which only concluded with Bel’ameth … MAYBE

Sources?

[Erevien-die-aldor (Erevien)]

All their friends are in Horde guilds. You don’t make such a drastic gameplay change and think they will continue playing it after. That is basic logic.

[Sylvare-argent-dawn (Sylvare)]

The RP community I am a part of and the people I have played with over the years since TBC

What kind of answer were you expecting that you’re asking me to source people with an opinion?
how do you even source that? its not like I’m making some sort of claim that my experience is backed by academic studies I can provide a link too

[Anzhela-hyjal]

x faction guild now.

The RP community

your rp community, fan of quel dorei, are pro horde. meh…

OK so it is a case of ‘everyone who disagrees with me has no right to an opinion’ kind of thing or does something else drive you to twist other peoples words like this?

[Erevien-die-aldor (Erevien)]

PRO Horde elves exist wheter you like it or not. This is not the 90s anymore. Stop thinking elves can only be nice to humans and serveral sidekicks.
