My next guide

[Beltharean]

So as some of you might know, if you've been around for a while, or ever glanced over at the Race Guides section, I've made a couple guides that I'm personally rather proud of. The crown jewel of them would probably be my Tauren guide, Since the Mists of Dawn, clocking in at over 14,300 words. Well over 80,000 characters. I worked on a Blood Elf guide for quite some time, and managed to create an incredibly in-depth timeline for them. I haven't gotten around to finishing that one quite yet... That being said, I'm just wonder, if I were to make another guide similar in length to StMoD, what race should it be? Or alternatively, what class if you'd rather I do one for a particularly hard class to play.

Humans.

With all their different nations, humans are far more complex than given credit for at first glance.

[Reigen]

If not human, I'd say go for gnomes. Perhaps it will convince people to stop seeing them as such joke characters and get people to play them a bit more serious.

[Beltharean]

There are a few different types of Gnomes.

The Babba-kind.

The Gnomefupi.

The Pikenome.

The JovaGna.

And of course, we can't forget The Sprinkles. I was going to come up with something mildly clever for her too, but I figured it was good enough as it was.

[Krent]

The Gnomefupi.

I find this arch-type to be especially cliched, trite, and tired. It tries too hard to be unique and avant-garde. I wish more people would play conventional gnomes, and not ones obsessed with being martial artists.

P.S -- You should write a guide on writing guides. Blow people's minds.

[Beltharean]

Or you could write a guide on how to write a guide for writing guides.

Guide-ception.

Woah.

[Piken]

I say Human or Gnome. I'll gladly help with whatever Gnome stuff I can.

[Harmonic]

I voted Dwarf. Noone -plays- Dwarfs. The only dwarf female I've seen before was the one Piroska played years ago.

Unless someone had a joke character that lasted two days.

[Xigo]

Human or Blood Elf. Both are commonly played, and I see them often played... well. In a manor I deem incorrect.

*High standards guy over here*

[flammos200]

I'm with Xigo on this one, but I'd sooner have a Human guide, please.

...You'n I both know you've gotta' have a decent Alterac section, Tresses.

[Bovel]

Just keep your hands off me draenei.
*keeps a close eye on Beltharen*

[Jonoth]

I voted for humans. Kiffles already wrote an excellent guide on Gnomes, so I'd like to see Humans get the guide treatment, as they tend to get played fairly generic.

I voted Dwarf. Noone -plays- Dwarfs. The only dwarf female I've seen before was the one Piroska played years ago.

Unless someone had a joke character that lasted two days.

I played a female Dwarf armorsmith for quite some time here until I recently retired her, though I think it was mostly while you were away. There is also Drena more recently. But yes, I'd love to see more fwarfs.

[Caravan]

I'd love to see a human or dwarf guide, myself. Particularly humans, as they're intimidating!

[Beltharean]

Heh, I was hoping for a tie breaker between gnomes and humans, and as it seems, over night humans have most definitely won. I'll get started on the guide as soon as I can. If anyone has anything in particular that they'd like to see in the guide, then feel free to post any and all ideas here. And don't worry, I intend to have a section about the classes humans have and how to adequately RP them, at least from a historical standpoint (I'm looking at you, Paladins).

[CappnRob]

I was meaning to do a guide on humans. Blast!

But then again...


I never finished my dwarf guide. Meh.
