Started out with Alliance but now my two main toons are both Alliance and Horde. I tend to go back and forth and enjoy both sides. IMO if you only stick to one faction you are basically only playing half the game. There is an entirely different feel and atmosphere in each faction. The areas are different, the quests are different. IMO to just play one side and one side only is depriving yourself. I've played both sides and have done PVP and have no problem switching from one side to the other.
For example, I started in Northrend with my Human Paladin and then my Dwarf Hunter and found myself rather bored so I started questing with my Belf Warlock and it's like an starting all over! I also rolled an Orc Death Knight (I rather like the Orcs). Seriously, what's meaner and more intimidating then an Orc DK?
I guess if I had to choose I'd go with Horde. I find the quests are more interesting and I love the lore behind the Horde. Thrall definitely beats Varian hands down. No contest. On the Horde side I'm partial to the Orcs, Blood Elves and Undead (I have an UD Mage that's just a blast to play just to listen to her crabby jokes). On Alliance side I like the Humans and Dwarves. Sorry, can't stand the Gnomes. Best thing about playing Horde in is that I don't have to do stupid Gnome quests.

thinking about this thread i went and made a Human Dk just to explore the ally side of the game..
had a few unexpected results namely: nausea, hallucinations and even attempted suicide..
really i cant stand the atmosphere of the alliance..
not saying all alliance are retarded but its just not for me..
I understand what you're talking about. I'm alliance, and I just can't get into the horde side of things. I never considered suicide, but yeah, I understand what you're saying, only reversed.

I started out as horde because of rl friends playing horde... never even considered going alliance because I wanted to play on the same server/side as my friends did. Got 4 lvl 80s now, all horde. I'd love to level an alliance char from 1 80, to see and experience the other side (actually created one that is lvl 10 now), but now with Ulduar out I simply don't have time to level up another new character. What's also kinda putting me off is that I couldn't use heirlooms for this char but yeah the real problem is time at the moment.

As sad as it is... I play almost completely alliance... and I hate it.
When you're level 80, geared to the teeth and raiding most of the week, you tend to care less what you're character looks like and more about the progression...
Otherwise I'd have rolled (and stuck with) an Orc ages ago.
Lok' tha ogan!

I play horde and pretty much horde only. For a number of reasons.
You can be a human/dwarf/elf in just about any fantasy game, but there aren't a ton that let you be big cow people.
I think the overall flavor of the Horde is cool. You have the misunderstood orc, with their honor, the rasta trolls, the stoic tauren, the treacherous and yet likeable forsaken, and crack additcs.
Not to mention
Thrall>Varian
Garrosh is a such a @#$% tho. He went from being a huge pansy to a total prick.
Amen, lol.
As far as i know, you can't be a giant Bull in other MMO's.
Horde FTW!

I solely stick to Horde, with exception to a random Night Elf DK I play when my original realm is down.

The only Alliance race that I'd be interested in playing is human, and sadly, something about the first three zones (Elwynn and the two neighbors; been so long I don't even remember the names) make me want to claw out my eyes with a spork.
And from a lore perspective, I find the stories of the Horde races more interesting.... but one glaring ripoff:
Orcs = Klingons, amirite?
Honor
Bloodthirsty in battle
Gruff
Weird stuff sticking outta their heads (tusks and omgforeheads)
Anyhow, I play Horde exclusively.

All of my toons are of the alliance.I tried the horde side of things,but I just didn't care for it tried a belf lock.Just not my style,and I am not a young player.
Ill have to agree with this, got an 80 orc shaman, wishin I had gone troll for aesthetics mostly...
the regen racial never hurts either
