Alliance or horde

Go gnome or go home! Honestly I wish I could have a pally and shammy gnomes. That would make my day

i played ally for quite a while, I have a retired alliance mage somewhere....not sure where with a rank of seargent or something, that's how long ago it was - it has a pvp rank, had a warrior too and a NE hunter. I really enjoyed being alliance but it struck me one day after playing for 2 years that alliance are a bunch of smarmy #%@& maybe it was just the servers I was on. Anyway I went to tichondrius and levelled a BE Lock when BC came out and never looked back, I sometimes logon to my ally chars and listed to general chat just to confirm that it's still is full of whining 12 year olds. Horde is the best, no shadow of a doubt and it's not a matter of personal opinion, it's a fact Any faction that has gnomes = fail.

This is VERY much server dependent. I've rolled horde on a few different servers and it's 100% worse than most of the alliance I've played on.

I'm sorry sup it must have been you - all horde on all servers are better than ally by the mere fact that ally have gnomes

lol I was seriously considering this, but a friend got me playing (solo, not boxing, damn no RAF) horde on a PvP server (I'm terrible @ PvP) and so far it's been a lot of fun.

I would find out who wins Winterspasm the most on your server and roll with that.
On my server Horde wins unless they choose not to show up such as 9AM->5PM M-F.
I'm alliance so this really cheeses me to no end.

I'm having a blast with my alliance pallys, at level 60 they turned into a instance lawn mowing machines. they just mow down stuff in the instances. They were good before they are just awsome now.

I am only playing alliance right now, but I prefer the horde because I liked the diversity of the characters and their models more. Unfortunately, they went and added blood elves to the group, so now you have no choice to play them when you want a paladin. At least the draenei are more likeable for shaman on the alliance side (personally speaking). I'm not a fan of gnomes either, and I currently have no gnome characters on any realm, but I'm also not trapped into having to use them.

The alliance starting zones are much more aesthetically pleasing. The majority of horde zones tend to be very bland to level through, and after about the 5th time leveling in the Barrens, I was pretty much done with that place (the retarded general chat set aside). Desert, desert, and more desert.

That said, if I had the choice to do it all over again and didn't have ties to people on a specific side already, I'd probably choose horde for the toons. The areas are just temporary, and you'll be out of them fast enough (or never been there at all with RAF boosting). I think I could live with a blood elf paladin, or just make a DK tank later anyways of whatever race I want.

Lok Narash!!!

... playing horde for more than four years
... once I leveled rogue dwarf to level 70 though, just to see the game from different perspective. Left week after hitting max level, can't stand the "noble" atmosphere and some of the worst models in game (it's subjective, but humans or night elves are just simply ugly too me).
... so for the Horde! for the Villains!

Ick barrens chat. I've leveled so many horde toons through the teens to their early 20's (even in my early alliance days played horde alts to 20 or so on other realms), I really hate the barrens. First thing I do when I get there since it is such a damn good leveling zone is turn off /general.

But at least it's not as bad as westfall...now THAT zone drives me insane just the mere thought of ever having to do it again... "anybody seen the messenger?" is actually more common than "where's mankirk's wife?"

Find a server with friends or acquaintances. It's amazing how boring the game becomes when none of your friends play anymore.

I started playing as Horde in Classic and raided through AQ40 with old high school friends. They all quit a few months before BC and I rerolled alliance to play with college friends. Both factions have their jerks, both have immature kids, both have amazingly wonderful people. If none of your real life friends are active wow players, you can always roll horde on Magtheridon and join the Zerg ;).
