    Calia's doing something with them, but I don't know what it is leading to.
    Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.

    Not only that, we commit genocide on daily basis and nobody cares. But then again its mostly on untermensh and undesireables. I mean island expeditions in nutshell are basically extermination of natives,

    After the dozens of times murlocs mauled my priest in vanilla while she was minding her own damn business, I am happy to wipe out their villages.

    -.-

    Killing them makes you no better than Sylvanas, or shit like that.

    And murlocs, virmen, kobolds, drogbar, youngol, sethrak, blood trolls, and many many more. Just dehumanize your enemy and you can murder anything.

    I really fail to see how say night elves are any diffrent.

    And don't ask questions. Remember if you never ask questions you can still think that you are the good guy.

    None of those races shown signs of communication or capitulated before hobos , they threw themself at us until they were all spent. While btw those of them who DID talked were spared like those Drogbars from another tribe, whats their name. And Sethralis loyal Sethrak. Night elfs literally gave up to the point where their Arch Priestess only asked Hero to make sure occupation is humane (aka political term for oiling up your butt for penetration) and then they got genocided.

    They didnt. And you arguing in bad faith now since Delaryn wasnt arguing in terms of “we willfight you till the end” but rather simply said that hope cannot be killed, which means nothing. Oh and she wasnt a leader of night elfs.

    And yet she didn't care about what situation she was in. Fully deserved. Talk shit - get shot. All in all no diffrent from us culling all the generic talking heads/rare mobs that we kill all the time.

    The day I lose sleep over whether or not my video game character is better than another video character, is the day I check myself into a nice place with soft walls.

    Nope. You are the one who refuses to accept that genocide is 0/1 scenario. There is no lesser genocide or acceptable one. Its either is, or is not.

    One good thing that came of Sylvanas's leadership: the various branches (Deathguards, Darkstalkers, Dark Rangers, etc.) are used to being highly compartmentalized, meaning they can operate efficiently without needing a central figure coordinating everything. With Lillian filling the role Rok'han does (giving the Forsaken a voice in the Council), that also addresses any concerns the Forsaken might have about not having a say in the Horde going forward.

    However, Blizzard really needs to take some time and have someone step up and lead the orcs, and Forsaken. Two of the original four Horde races are leaderless and running on cobbled-together temporary governments, or without any central government at all and are just focused on day to day survival. Hell, the blood elves are still running on a regency that was supposed to be a short-term stopgap while they dealt with their near-extinction, the Mag'har haven't appointed a new Warchief officially, and the vulpera don't have any recognizable structure in their society (again, a matter of necessity considering the situation we found them in). But instead of focus on this, Blizz just keeps throwing Horde characters into the meat grinder and putting power-mad tyrants in charge to drive the plot forward every time they run out of ideas, leaving the Horde a broken mess of temporary and incomplete governments, in some cases for over a decade.

    edit: Had forgotten Rokhan officially took up being the Darkspear chieftain, finally giving them a leader after going completely leaderless since Vol'jin's death. The orcs remain without a leader, and the Forsaken are managing well enough for now but should find a permanent form of government, ditto the blood elves.
    That's true. How can 3 vulpera represent the rest of their race when they are all nomads without a government?

    Why is it that people will insist that there's no mind control going on but then people get upset when Forsaken act against Sylvanas and almost get offended on her behalf over it. Either you want them to all just act in lockstep with Sylvanas as if they are mind controlled, or allow characters who have been slighted by her to not just keep continuing to support her.

    She literally insults the Horde, including her own people, publicly, out in the open, right to their faces. And then flees, leaving whatever potential repercussions they could have faced, alone. It would have been completely unnatural if all the Forsaken suddenly just kept supporting her. She made absolutely no effort to try and get the people she pretends to care about out of potential harm's way.

    Not in WoW. Plus each of those scenarios should be taken and dissected separately since they all happen under different circumstances and we deal different amount of damage. For example killing blood trolls because they wanted to summon G’uun and turn entire Zandalar into corrupted, moldy wasteland might count as genocide but in that situation enemy is nearly hiveminded and acts against all life, attempting a genocide. While in case of Sethrak we helped un-corrupted ones against those who chose worshipping Old God spawn over Sethralis and nearly doomed entire island. Night elfs were not planning on doing anything like that, were capable of parlay and compromise (which they did before btw) and gave up officially and then they were murdered. If you dont see a difference then you should really visit a doctor, you might be retarded and disabled.

    Infracted.

    "They are all nomads"
    "They live on a single island nation with the Zandalari Empire"

    They're as much a formal faction as the Steamweedle Goblins are.
