Note to WoW players...

Aug 27, 2008 05:46

If you play a blood elf, please don't bash on draenei, bash on trolls, or be a Horde faction snob.  It makes you look ridiculous.  Unless, of course, you're roleplaying.  And in that case...you've only really got an excuse for bashing on trolls:  Most Silvermoon blood elves are only part of the Horde out of convenience or desperation, and will only have anything against draenei in the abstract.  (The bias against trolls is cultural.  Yes, if you roleplay it, your character is a bigot.  And yes, that term applies to a lot of blood elves.)

Speaking of belfywelfs and roleplay...it's really silly to give blood elves the kid-glove treatment and then completely rip on trolls in an online roleplay guide.  Blood elves may be dainty and fine-boned and kind of generically pretty, but (even if you disregard the aforementioned bigotry) they're one of the most morally "gray" playable races in the game-much more so than trolls.  If you're going to try to roleplay in WoW-much less try to give people advice on the subject-pay attention to the damn lore, for frellsakes.
