Why are EU players forced to play with Russians?

[diddle]

Why am I forced to play with New Zealanders on American servers?

Damn Kiwis with their strange pronunciations and affinity for sheep

cheers to that, the damn sheep-philiac islanders.

[Sarcon]

i'll trade you the russians for the latin servers. deal?

I second this. All in favor?

Why are North american players forced to play with Brazillians? I think we got it worse.

Trust me, there are a lot of americans we are forced to play that we rather never have met

Just because someone is from a different country, has different ways to think about politics and life does not mean they should be segregated. Imo what's great about a game as comprehensive as WoW is the possibility to learn from different kinds of people and make friends all over the world. I am very thankful for a lot of good friends I've made from Canada and USA. If you start judging someone before you meet them, you may miss a whole lot. Don't let some stupid war that 1% of the world has control about dictate the way you feel about someone.

I concur with this proposal!

Why is this? After all they are doing to the people of the Ukraine basically because they can't get there own way.

I think they should be stopped being able to play with us other EU players as I feel they are in the wrong and I do not want to be associated with these people till they start behaving themselves.

Are you serious? You cannot hold an entire country accountable for the actions of its leaders! Should we have executed every German because the nazi's killed so many innocent people?

at least they use the same alphabet as you... russian letters always bug for me and make player tooltips go to their maximum size

no problem with playing with russians, just all their weird letters and symbols don't go well with my client.

[Aquinan]

because EU servers are for Europeans, and last i check Russia was partly in Europe

[Ilgalar]

Geography, Russia is very close to (arguably partly in) Europe so it makes sense to cluster the servers together.

I wonder if any Europeans were complaining about having to play with the UK when we did far worse things in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The arab servers would technically be EU servers if they existed soooo IDK

[The One Percent]

In Soviet Russia, Russians are forced to play with EU.

This is actually a very valid point.

Inofficially Kazzak already is, considering the majority of that server's population is arabic.

It's the Ukrainians who should be stopped being able to play, they're the instigator of it all.

[Meillquei]

For the same reasons North Americans have to play with people from Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand.

Locked the thread.

In the end, this isn't really a World of Warcraft General Discussion topic. If you wish to discuss the happnings in the conflict, there is threads for that in the Off-topic section.
