Alliance or Horde?

[lilaughingwolf]

I play mainly horde, I do have some allie but don't really play them much. I have nothing agents alliance just like the horde better because of the story lines, history, and they seem to feel like the misunderstood, under estimated "little kid" that everyone has something mean or hateful to say to or about while alliance come off as the "perfect post child", my poo smells like roses type (at least ALOT of the players I have ever dealt with) But I do love my worgie so I just cant hate them like a lot of horde players do..

I've been playing Horde since Burning Crusade when I started the game. My ex-boyfriend was playing a Horde hunter and so I made a bloodelf warlock to play on the same side with him. Shortly after the warlock was somewhere around 17 I started a male Orc hunter, Morga, who was my main until the middle of Lichking. Since, like many othere here, I suffer of sever alt-itis, I created a lot of other chars. A male tauren druid, a female tauren shammy, and other hunters (bloodelfs, Tauren). I never could connect to Ally chars I created. I have a Draenei DK hanging around with level 86 and a nightelf hunter on 67. They are my highest Ally. I have 9 level 90 on Horde (6 hunters *cough*) - I think that says it all. I have my own little guild on my first Wow-Server Norgannon EU. It used to be a good server. The population on both sides was equal, lots of open pvp events although we were a pve-realm. But Norgannon started dying slowly during Cata. The good guilds left and now we are "low" on population, 90% are Ally, so few Horde people left. Well it's sad. I don't want to leave this server, because it's where my husband and me met and have our guild, but we changed each one char to a new, and highly Horde populated realm we really enjoy.
Recently I started out a new ally char on a full German Ally-server. I'll see how that ends.
I never liked to be in Orgrimmar a lot (like many of you said it's just too "hard"). My chars always lived in Thunderbluff during Wrath (HS was in Dala, but the home was in TB), they were forced into Orgrimmar during Cata, which I really HATED, and now they can be back in Thunderbluff. I love this city. So peaceful and the music is great. Have you ever watched a sunset on the roofs of Thunderbluff? And you can see the stars there at night.

Mostly alliance. My first character was a night elf, and I loved the ambiance of night elf Kalimdor. Horde druids just feel like wannabes, even worgen druids feel written better. I think my first hunter was a troll, but when I found out I couldn't be an ax/spear thrower, I went dwarf instead. Speaking of which, Ironforge was by far a superior capital to Orgrimmar when Azeroth was grounded. And Stormwind is superior to Orgrimmar now that Azeroth is flyable.

As far as starting zones, I liked the Worgen area. The goblin area was ok, but it felt a little to jokey for a homeland being destroyed. Gilneas was much more engaging. As far as the original starting zones, the forsaken was probably the best, followed by night elf. Voljin is about the only interesting horde leader, Thrall got to be too much of a Mary Sue. On the other hand, just one example: Moira went from being an ignorable add in a dungeon to complex character, who possibly just made a heel-face turn, but it could all be Machiavellian machinations.

I only have one horde 90, an orc elemental shaman, based off of a character I played on a single player dungeon crawler. Some of it is that all my wow friends play alliance, but I prefer alliance.

Gnomes - I play gnomes.

Problem is out of the classes I enjoy playing and have had decent experience with: Hunter / Shaman / Paladin / Druid / and Monk ~ Monk is the only available class for a Gnome

Therefore I just go with whatever friends are playing at the time. Flipping back and forth isn't too bad.
