[QUOTE=Sableye;43705846]i always played alliance because horde starting areas left you I'm the barrens, the largest zone in the game with no mount and everything fucking killing you with alliance traffic coming through as well killing things. then when they split the zone they kinda used a little too much TNT and the old zone is essentially one that's blown up and full of plants, the other one has a massive fucking scar and people killing each other endlessly for it

alliance has better races to be sure that and they have just more aesthetically pleasing stuff, not fucking timber lashed togather with hide roofs[/QUOTE]
Are you not man enough to kill trees with leather and make houses out of them
Wow yes we had best build a 5 star hotel for all these humans and shit.
I like both factions, although that part comes with learning to respect both of their aesthetics for what they are and then accepting the fact that they're pretty much the same fucking thing, with the only difference being quests and racials. Everything else is just cosmetic. My characters are 5/5 filling in both sides with the races I like and having a Deathknight that I can't renember what faction he's on.
[QUOTE=Zinayzen;43702373]It's because Alliance has Dwarves, really. If you don't count dwarves I bet the numbers are a lot smaller.[/QUOTE]
Can't deny.
Dwarves kick ass.
I was Alliance.
I just loved their cities, locations and the general population. Most of the alliance people on my old server were pretty chill. Loved just hanging around Ironforge or Stormwind while i grinded rep.

Orcs have a really dumb look on their face. The models they're working on are much better though.
[QUOTE=Moustacheman;43705703]Alliance wins PvP (primarily at Alterac) because they turtle so fucking much and most Hordies tend to try and kill-farm instead of capture the fucking objective.
The woes of being an orc warrior.[/QUOTE]
that is basically the exact opposite of why ally wins so much in AV lol
they win in AV because they have a 6-8 second advantage in rushing to the end boss, as the first boss Horde has to drop is a) a tiny bit further from the start cave than the ally one and b) pops an immunity for a couple seconds
ergo, when ally and horde rush to end bosses, alliance has a tiny little head start, which is usually enough to ensure that they win. However, if horde would man up and turtle themselves, they would have a MASSIVE advantage over alliance. Scorched Earth AVs are a 100% win rate for Horde unless they fuck up majorly. They, however, take far longer than 'hurr rush to the end' and as such most players don't bother.
if you'd like to discuss this more in-depth we can go to the WoW thread but basically that's the wrong mindset entirely. Both factions try to do the exact same dumb thing, but one is a little faster.
Horde has always been for hipsters (FOR TEH HORDE!111) who look down on the Alliance just to belong with the cool guys.
Alliance has always been for all kinds of people. You play Horde? That's cool bro i respect you.
Us Alliance always did attract a lot of idiots and kids though, but i've learned to live with that.
The whole Alliance vs Horde thing was nothing compared to being a Paladin in vanilla WoW though.
Oh you want to dps/heal/tank? You're a Paladin, you suck!
Not to mention the outcry when you rolled Need on anything anyone else needed as well.

I used to have an Orc shaman but rerolled as a Dwarf as soon as Cata came out
[QUOTE=Moustacheman;43704529]Horde is best.
We have orcs and Tauren and trolls and undead and goblins.
Fuck blood elves, though.[/QUOTE]
more like slut elves
amirite
