They'd have to reconstruct the models. It would probably be too time-consuming.

*cough* Best not say that around any developers. After all, the entire MMO is just a matter of coding. ;)

I wish my character's boobs didn't obscure my guild tabards.

Well yes. What I mean, I guess, is that if the problem is that tabards and skirts are coded so that they act in ways that conflict when moving (so that they clip and all that) then isn't it possible to create a model for tabards that mimics the skirt movement when the character is wearing a skirt? I mean, they have a separate tabard model for it as it is... Anyway, I guess it's in the "minor stuff" department, I just think tabards look ridiculous over skirts. The ebon blade tabard, for example, ends up looking like a cross which makes as much sense as... well, nothing really. Since they put so much effort into designing the tabards, it's a pity that so many players don't get to enjoy them.

Speaking of the tabard having issues with skirts...

It also had issues with me and the pirate day costume. For some reason, the game would keep the tabard display on my toon, but the actual graphic of the tabard made it look like skin... like a large flop of skin was hanging out from the bellybutton... THE HORROR!!

A lot of people had the same problem, I remember a lot of pictures floating around the WoW-sphere... Mine did it too. >_<

My tabard gripe is the my world explorer tabard looks terrible on me cause of the boobies. Can't even tell what the design is supposed to be. It looks great on my husband's male toon, when he has his beard short.

I have to say i play undead, tauren and blood elves with the exception of one orc and my wicked g tabard looks awesome on my undeads because both being wicked like it kinda just gives the feeling of an evil character ya know what i mean my two main undead characters i play are my lock and my dk and they are both the evilest looking characters you will ever see with the triumph cloth gear for my lock it makes it look even more wicked and it displays good on the other races too, there is a slight problem with the blood elf males tho since they dont stand straight like humans do since theyre legs are further apart and they stand at an angle the tabard looks like it is being pulled apart and the right shoulder being higher then the left one doesnt help either.

And i know you guys are curious about what my tabard looks like so to give you an idea its red ripple with a black background and a red border of bones.

I love how tabards appear on female draenei.. Maybe its just me but they seem to fit more alliance females well I think..except for gnomes.... But gnomes are so cute they dont need tabards anyways. ^_^
