Explain this. From what I can tell, you're spouting the typical, bullshit Alliance party line. Justify it or shut the fuck up.

If uglyness must be erradicated, why does the Alliance allow Dwarven women to exist? BLECH.

Yeah yeah, I know. I have a problem with statements like "Tauren are just stupid cows" that come without any reasoning or basis. Especially considering the fact that they're largely unoffensive as a race and are content to cultivate Mulgore (and to some extent the Barrens) rather than expand their influence. Hell, you even see some Night Elf (or some kind of elf) npcs operating in tandem to cleanse the Barrens of some of its problems (Wailing Caverns? The oases?).

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but didn't the current Night Elves plant a new world tree to try to become immortal again against the druids wishes ? That's what I thought, pretty damn lame. Also, when the rest of the Horde was being peaceful in TFT, it was the Humans who broke their treaty and attacked them, causeing the whole war to rage again. Sounds pretty damn evil.

The only true evil race is the Undead, simply because Sylvanas wants to kill off all of the life left, only using the Horde to help her kill off Lich King Arthas.

As for the lame "Night elves are all by themselves on the Horde continent" maybe you forgot about the Undead being all alone on the other continent. Each faction has ways of getting to the other continent. The Horde on Dragonblight is pretty passive at the moment, while the Alliance consists of a bunch of assholes that constantly try to provoke the Horde into PvP battles. I don't know how many times Nae and I have been running around just the two of us and her pet only to be spit on by 5 Night Elves equal to our level or higher. Are we stupid, I think not. We usually just laugh at them and continue on or point and laugh.

Basically it all depends on what server you play on as to how the different factions act.

Actually on that world tree thing that was the design of one group, and is highly frowned apon by many. In fact the very first quest you get is to try and help fix the mistake that was made by planting it. Even then it was only done in ignorance and a desire for something lost, not because it hurt someone else, or because they wanted to push thier influence, it was for thier own races personal reasons. The ones who did it, did it anyway, much as the faction of High elves before them did, and wrought the consequences. Most of that gets explained before you break level 20.

As for the Humans who broke the treaty, they were humans that were cut off from the rest of the humans and were unaware of what had taken place, not even aware of it, they reacted off of old information and what they new of events before not knowing anything that had traspired in between.

And on the server thing, already went over that. That was the point I was making that it wasn't Alliance or Horde it was perspective, and that different servers and such yield different situations.

Yah. And as a NE player you spend a great deal of time uncovering it, even so much as to counter several plots.

A lot of your quests are along the lines of learning what arrogance and greed brought, and how to stop it from happening again.

Some of the Auberdine quests have you uncovering old history around the Aran ruins and such, as well as researching the corruption, and learning what the Naga resurgeance and such are doing. You also spend a lot of time helping the Ancients cure the balance caused by the making of the new Tree.

What the flying fuck are you on?... My whole Undead assumption was based off only the information I had, which was the little bit I garnered from my Warlock, I never claimed it as FACT I relayed what I Thought... I'm SORRY this was SUCH a vital point for you, and that it WOUNDED you so deeply that my first impressions of the Undead weren't as evil as yours, and that you know... Once others had pointed out a LOT of information I missed, I didn't keep trying to dispute it since, you know, they proved thier point? Yah? So I'm SORRY if I didn't see your post and justify it with a responce on a subject that had been pointed out on. Gee, you are sooo right. The Undead are most definitely the most evil race in Warcraft, how did I EVER miss this wisdom, I shall now bow down to your SUPERIOR intellect and superiority over lore that I had missed before. Trolls are most definitely not the most evil race, it is definitely the undead, omg you are so right. I now see the light.

Man, I think you have definitely sailed passed my assumption of dumassitude into the realm of, "Jesus fuck omg.."

Edit: and my god.. I went back to read this post of yours I missed, and you took a rather lighthearted FICTIONAL racial debated and turned it into some real world political war melodrama because some information was off.. And THEN you got pissed because I didn't justify it with an ansewer, because I didnt notice it, after others had explained more of the Forsaken plots, and then proceeded to be a dumbass because I poked fun at Taurens that Moo... Again, I say...

Information you had at the...wait what? 3 or 4 different posts explaining the Undead and their campaign to destroy all life weren't enough? You continued arguing even then! As for the offering the real world example, it had nothing to do with drama or lighterheartedness, it was simply an analogy made in an extreme way to point out the ridiculousness of what you were saying. Even without the knowledge of lore, you should've been able to see the points I made, namely that persecution does not justify genocide and being war-like does not necessarily make a group evil. Thank you for completely missing the point, I'm done with you now.
