let me tell you what you can do with your "lore column"...
http://wow.joystiq.com/2011/11/12/beginner-roleplay-choosing-sides/#continued Anne Stickney is at it again. This time, she's making a choose-your-race guide for RPers that is, shall we say, not up to my exacting standards.
( And here's why. )
1.) They were in a weak position; quite frankly they needed allies and the horde was willing to help for several reasons
a.) strategic value; they wielded power over a large portion of the eastern kingdoms. Thrall admitted that was one of his reasons for working with sylvannas.
b.) Also, they were victims of the Legion's cruetlty (the weapon that turned them into abominations was made at the behest of the legion and the initial acts of scourge douchebaggery were done at the behest of the legion) and thrall of all people knows that people deserve a shot at redemption. It would have been hypocritical not to try to help them. The orcs could sympathise since they lost everything due to the legion's cruel
Also, The draenei are actually not nonsenical; tey lost a great deal to the orcs and the belves (both of whom are in the horde); while the orcs were deceived by kil'jaeden they were willing to go along on some level and the belves revered kael (they had no clue that he was cuckoo for cocoa puffs but they still followed him). Night elves realized they need a part in the world and the orcs did shoot themselves in the foot by whacking cenarius.

I'm not especially interested in your viewpoint, and you never asked for permission to express it here, so you're now banned.
