Quote:Suddenly every blood elf jumped ship and went from discriminatory to anybody who is even addicted to something as harmless as thistleweed, especially those who overindulged in fel like the wretched, to fel addicts? "Well we didn't like Kael doing it, but now we're going to do it ourselves."
Where did you get that they dislike junkies from? I'm curious since from all that I've seen they have absolutely no problems with it, you see everything from bongs to floating fel crystals around Silvermoon that's ready to give next elf up their kick of magic/bloodthistle/whatever. The fact that all of them accepted fel magic as way to keep the addiction away also gives me a hunch that they aren't very picky about such things, it has been stated and shown several times in game that the belves have descended to a very decadent state, looking at that estate near Silvermoon where they give you a quest to resupply their party cache for an example. The wretched were are because they lost all control and were unable to remain "civil", they also act like rabid dogs and attack other elves as well to drain what magic they can out of them, it's hard to like someone who tries to steal your stash.
Kael is bit more complex, I read somewhere, and agreed with, a theory that had that the elves didn't dislike his actions because he meddled with demons (not many would care for that, I think, seeing as they have demons walking on the streets of Silvermoon and, again, those fel crystals that sustain the city and the population) but that the big betrayal that they felt was due to Kael'thas bowing to the Legion lords, he, a noble Sin'dorei, their messiah and glorious leader that had been made out to be perfect in all ways, wise and powerful- he bowed, became a mere servant to the lords of the Burning Legion. Even if he would be given a high position he'd be a slave to what had been preached as the servants of the belves, the demons were useful, dangerous and treacherous, but when controlled properly by a blood elf completely acceptable.
As a side note and something to keep in mind, CotH isn't retail, so we
will deviate from the Lore they set up although we strive to incorporate as much of it that we can, without making things too convoluted here. I know you, Theik, have had problems with this before and I must honestly say that it's getting rather tiresome to see you argue every change or storyline, especially since you do it in a way that comes off as very hostile and disdainful. If you don't like what we're doing here there's nothing stopping you from leaving to another server, or even retail since at least then you'd be sure things go as intended.
Edit: Here's another place we discuss the blood elves if anyone wants to continue that, otherwise I say we get back on topic!
Edit2: Obviously I forgot to actually add the link, hehe, but here it is!
