[OOC] Extended Character Sheet: Yishaq and a rant.
((Author's Note: I always wanted to RP my troll lock more, especially since with patch 4.1 Rise of the Zandalari is out. Plenty of opportunities for troll characters! With the recent development of Vol'jin asking blood elves and high elves for helm to cull Zul'Amani, I was expecting a lot of chances to forge blood elf-troll RP. But what disappoints me that people aren't RPing this right. I am not even sure if it's IC or OOC issue anymore. People are still RPing trolls hating blood elves, vice versa.
First off - Darkspear trolls ARE NOT AMANI trolls. No reason to hate blood elves.
Secondly - Blood elves hate the Amani more. Darkspears ARE NOT AMANI. So no reason to hate Darkspear tribe trolls specifically.
Thirdly - We are all fucking Horde. Being divided is stupid and clinging to historical hatred is weak. As read in Vol'jin story posted by Blizzard, Vol'jin strongly believes in forging alliances with Horde and sticking his loyalty for Horde. Blood elves and Darkspears aren't even freaking at war or having any solid lore back-up racial tensions at all. There's even a troll NPC in Dragonblight flirting with a blood elf NPC if no one hasn't noticed yet.
I am seriously thinking this is more of OOC problem than IC, really.
So I am hoping this patch 4.1's lore will rectify some Horde tension issues and bring about some RP opportunities for both blood elves and Darkspear trolls.))
