    Thats because the gnomes are a joke, and no one takes them seriously. Everyone Ive heard who will play a gnome, have either said that they just want to try em out, or they are going to make them some sort of carebear and PvP.

    "As a solution to this, I don't think they should be trying to make orcs-tauren-trolls look sexualy appealing to HUMAN players. As a human I will never be turned on by a giant cow, unless they make it look exactly like a human, at which point, it'd just be a human that looks like a cow."

    ROFLMAO!!! OMG.

     

     

    Wait. Your idea Drac... .Think I've seen that somewhere before...

    If there is a way...I'll find it.

    I definitly gonna play horde. I like the trolls and undead :) And the fact that alliance is overpowered because of the love for NE is only make the choice to play horde stronger. Much meat to kill :P

  • SoloCasterSoloCaster Member Posts: 9

     6 or 7 of my charcters are gonna be hoarde. I don't understand the peoples ubession with the Alliance. sure N00bs and lifeless geeks like the NE but... still... GNOMES!  I mean wwho'd rather be one of those two then a Awesome, troll, Orc Tauren and even Undead... Humans I suppose racial loyaltists would mainly be them, Dwarves are ok... but still GNOMES and elves?

    Well I'm sure the dwarves could woop some horde ass if it came down to it. Depending on the numbers on each side and char lvl's. The dwarves are some of the strongest overall classes in the game, followed by the tauren, followed by Orc, followed by human/undead, followed by troll/nighelf, followed by gnome.

    So dont be dissing Alliance, or else you might find your head in a basket being shiped back to your home town::::39::.

    BTW, I dont think your intensionally dissing Alliance, you probably just like horde better.::::28::

    Yeah that thing about he just likeing Hoard better is true but...a Dwarf (the coolest alliance race) could not beat up a Tauren... there is the lv. and equipments, but a lvl 1 tauren would beat up a lv 1 Dwarf, both using the starting equipment

    I think it would be a toss up at lvl 1, but i'm not in the beta so what do i know::::29::.

    That part 2. About the Mercs. If one population suddenly gains a lot more people putting them ovr the opposite population, would all of the old Mercs be deleted. Look at it this way: Horde is losing population and is 10% below the alliance. The ability to make Merc is available. The Horde population sky rockets putting them above Alliance. The Alliance then gets to create Mercs. But now, what happens to the old Mercs on the Horde side? Can you no longer play them until your population begins losing? Well, if I was a fan of mercs, and wanted to be on ONE faction, this would turn me away from the game very quickly. Sorry if I am dribbling stupid because I didn't read your whole post yet, that part just caught me and I was thinking about it. I'll add an edit or something.

    For length reasons, I cut out the 2nd part of yer post, for the record, I agree that the losing faction shouldn't get handicap bonus's.

    Now as for the merc thing. I don't want to seem like jack ass, cause I know you mean well, but I'm figured that part would be obvious. image
    You would still be able to play a merc, the merc thing IMO is just an insentive to get people to make their characters on that server-faction. Since you won't be able to have characters from both factions on the same server might as well let people keep playing their mercs. I think just limit the CREATION of those characters to be dependant upon the population, odds are once someone is on the server, they won't play chars too heavily on other servers. You meet people on a server, you get connections, and usualy want to make all your other characters there because leveling them is easier when you can give them money from your higher level characters.

    Glad you brought it up though.

     

    SHORT ANSWER!

    You'd still be able to play them, even if your faction had a higher pop, the ONLY restriction, is when you can MAKE a merc.

    If nightelves are lame, they just sit around in their treehouses with their glowing eyes like "oh look how pretty we are." I mean come on, the only time they ever got off their asses was when their whole damn world was in trouble, twice, and the second time is was one of them anyway wtf!

    Well, the Night Elves stayed in their little forest dwellings for quite a long time because most of the other races were on a seperate continent, but I won't touch that part. Plus, there was a reason Illidan was locked up for hundreds of thousands of years in his little cave. He was so addicted to his arcane magic that he risked the destruction of the world to protect it, and when he failed and helped create the 'sundering of the world' in which the entire middle of the once Pangea-like continent sunk into the ocean, he decided to create another Well of Eternity to bring back the arcane magics he was so attached to.

    Besides, the Night Elves were mistrusting of all the other races, so they decided not to interfere with them until they came knocking on their door dragging the Burning Legion along with them, who they banished from the world millenia earlier (thanks to help from the dragons).

    Don't underestimate the Kaldorei lest you find a Druid of the Claw in his bear form growling behind you. ::::20::
