Well, yes, of course.

I think that specifically is a non-issue if just nobody ever brings it up ICly. Sort of a "Well, we're just gonna pay no attention to the fact that this mage tower was a blacksmith yesterday." situation

Yet in the end of all that, envelopes still look like regular envelopes. That will surely be the Horde administration's next step: Spiked paper!
Man, you reall, really don't like orcs, do you? It's a mailbox! They made it fit in with the horde/orc aesthetic!

What was wrong with the old mailbox? It was also orc aesthetic and looked awesome as a mailbox. Not a spike you put in a moat.

And, fyi, was the perfect stage to dance on!

Also, about the mailbox thing. Who'd have thought it took 9 years and THREE WARCHIEVES to finally research Spiked Barricades? Man, make me warchief for 10 minutes and I'd have upgraded that.

About the "Not available to put your garrison where you want it" I think it's sad that we're getting that restricted, although one can hope that they do it so that you can change that once you reach Level 90. I planned to have my guild garrison in Frostfire Ridge most likely, but the choice to have it elsewhere would have been nice.

That mailbox looks pretty rad.

Does this mean the Humans are getting new mailboxes, too? They can always be shinier and more lion-like! And eagles! Add more eagles!

Would you also barricade every exit and entrance to Orgrimmar with towers? Smile

Fuck it, I'd build loads of peons and send them to build more roads to help my empir--- wait, this isn't Civ, is it?

Dreadful accent and a ton of spoilers, but if you don't mind those and don't feel like slogging through all of the datamined conversations yourself, it's pretty interesting.

I love the login screen.

Man, you "reall, really" feel a genuine need to take everything I say overly serious and attempt to respond to it in some would-be snarky manner, do you? Did I shit in your cereal one day to get your ever-lasting love and attention so much? Perhaps you should stop doing that and take a joke for what it is. Le gasp! Something on the internets that isn't dead-serious! Really difficult for some people to cope with, I know!

by **erwtenpeller** Wed Apr 23, 2014 2:12 pm

I know. it's an affliction, it is.

by **Thelos** Wed Apr 23, 2014 2:12 pm

To be fair it is sometimes hard to tell on the internet, with there being no sound in text and all.

by **Kozgugore Feraleye** Wed Apr 23, 2014 2:24 pm

Being incapable of telling a joke/sarcasm or not is one thing - expressing some kind of desire to try and get a hard-on for "criticizing" someone at every turn just because there's a difference on views on a fictional race is a different matter entirely. Frankly, it's quite petty.

Though I'm sure there'll be yet another attempt at a half-baked apology somewhere along the way, blaming it on "another bad mood".

by **erwtenpeller** Wed Apr 23, 2014 2:27 pm

No, this one was for fun. The last one was because I was in a bad mood. Wink

I agree, it's fun to see how you continue to make a fool of yourself.

Oh you guys!

That new orcish mailbox-design IS rather fugly though, I have to agree with Koz on that. So far I really like the character models, but... the limitation to garrisons was just meh. What's the point of implementing such things if we can't place it where we want it to be?
