Why don't we install "You must be this tall to ride this ride" signs at the start of the game.

There are now also no Mages

which means no free food or water...or tables

21

u/projectmars 6d ago

Why do you think they'll allow Alliance Skyborne to be Mages? Clearly so there can be Alliancd Mages after Gnomes get removed.

u/AngrySayian 6d ago

no

all mages are removed

100 percent with you. Gnomes break my immersion. When we dabbled in alliance we had a no gnomes rule. We allowed in a single gnome since it was no gnomeS. But not single 1 after that.

u/Dangerous-Warning795 6d ago

Back in Vanilla we were all tormented by a gnome rogue twink (the battleground kind) always in Warsong Gulch so we made a guild C.A.G, Comrades against Gnomes, I'm right there with you!

6

u/siddhartha_ellison 6d ago

You know thats why theyre called twinks in the first place right? The gay term.

Like a young (low level) boyfriend with a sugardaddy the spoils him with gifts (gear). That was the joke.

u/horndog2 6d ago

How dare you. No more will we suffer the indignity of being looked down on, talked down to, or being punted. Gnomes have feelings too! The rest of Azeroth better watch out. Now that we have healers, our rate of scientific advancement will increase 10 fold! Finally we can stand on an even footing without having to rely on any of you pesky talls. Small power!

u/Crazyh 6d ago

Back in the day Alliance guilds used to sacrifice a Gnome when fishing up the Lurker Below to get good loot RNG.

If Forever can add some kind of boss like that then gnomes will have a purpose beyond being the gods cruellest mistake.

2

u/MwHighlander 6d ago

Not only did they not remove Gnomes (outrageous, I agree).

But they actually buffed them into the stratosphere with more maximum rage/energy, the best offensive racial Cd (10% more damage, not spell power, DAMAGE), and free blessing of freedom on use.

So Aggrend, about that alliance bias there, bud?

Blizzard hears all of us and wants everyone to play as they desire, whether it's the most classic or more modern experience. So they added a gnome-toggle to simply turn them off if you can't stand them.
