I can't do it - I just can't play alliance.

I have players on both sides and I don't notice a big difference other than how characters look. Both factions and areas have their benefits as well as problems;

Trade chat in Cities. Winner? You've seen trade chat. Do you really think there's a winner??!!

Durotar vs Elwynn Forest. Winner: Elwynn Forest Durotar is gawd awful ugly and boring. Even the map overview is ugly and boring.

Ghostlands vs Elwynn Forest/Westfall. Winner: Ghostlands by far Why? Updated loot

Elwynn Forest vs Mulgore. Winner: Elwynn Forest. Mulgore has too much running to be really enjoyable. Every time I get a quest I think "I have to run way the hell over there?" The landscape is beautiful tho.

Barrens vs Ashenvale. Winner? Tie. More gawddamn running! Both Xroads and Astranaar should have mounts to rent to lowbies while they're questing. Little ponies or something. Astranaar is beautiful with its whimsical motif, but honestly, it's a pretty lonely place. Barrens? I'd like to see Africa IRL, but not in a game. It's almost as boring as Shimmering Flats.

Graveyard run to Darkshire in Duskwood, vs x-roads run to up north to where the harpies are. Winner? Tie!! /pant....puff....too...tired...from running....to decide. /pass out (the rental mounts idea doesn't sound too bad when you think about all that damn running, huh?)

Silverpine Forest vs Wetlands. Winner? Silverpine. Smaller, which makes quests go by quickly.

Meh, now that I think about it, neither side bothers me much.

Barrens vs Ashenvale. Winner? Tie.

Except that on a PvP server, Ashenvale is a gank fest whereas Barrens is not.

I really wish Blizzard would implement a faction transfer facility in wow. Even if it was a paid facility.

You could only go to the particular class that you have levelled as, but being able to swap over would be good. Paid transfer would stop it from being done on a whim. Also if you made it a one time per character facility then again it wouldn't be whimsical.

I started out on Alliance as some of my friends from school were playing there. I have to say I was bugging out! Bear in mind this was an RP server.. there was so much hate and aggression, immaturity etc that I just had to get off there. It may have been the server as a whole, but it put me off alliance for good. When I moved server and over to the horde, the difference was amazing I think by the end of the second day, I was already invited into a raiding guild that supported me all the way to 60. I may have been very lucky tbh, but the combination of the two has embedded a near paralysing urge to kill gnomes/NEs/Dwarfs and humans on sight (draenei are ok :P )
