ScreamingDingo 16985 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2020 Today I’m announcing a very interesting change that we have discussed among the ST and the Administration about the position of Snow Elves within the community. With their downfall of a nation, their hamfisted origins that never went through the LT vote and the lack of distinct culture or value as a subrace, we have decided to remove the sub-race of snow elves and revert them to High Elves. The Mali’fenn culture still exists, though its origins will not be properly canonised and now will be a ‘legend’ that those within the race believe, yet it will not have any OOC bearing on this. The Mali’fenn themselves have always had a very strange role within the server, where their existence as a subrace has had little to no impact or uniqueness apart from being the generic ‘strong’ elf that people have used to bastardise its culture. Especially with the complete collapse of its nation status during the duration of this map, it felt appropriate to finally revert the decision that was made without the Lore Team’s approval in the first place. So ALL current Snow Elven characters can keep their culture, but they must adhere to the standards of High Elven builds, heights and weights. There is no distinction between Snow Elf or High Elf blood, any Snow Elf mix breed characters will now just be High Elven hybrids. tl;dr/changelog - - Snow Elves are not a distinct subrace anymore, they are a culture of High Elves - Their origins are ‘de-canonised’ and their racial lore is now a legend within the server, a story that can be told and understood but never legitimised OOC’ly. - All current Snow Elves will be classified as High Elves, no real distinction or change is forced except following the height standards of this race. 71 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remyy 952 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2020 Okay, real response time. The fact you have come to this conclusion without even attempting to talk to the leadership/player base is awful. You didn’t even give them a chance to fix this, I don’t even play a Snelf and I’m upset for them. The Snow Elves have been more active in the past week after having been cucked over by their former leader, and instead of offering help y’all just wasted years of work. I wouldn’t be surprised if many of them left because of this. 47 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qaz_The_Great 1189 Share Posted September 25, 2020 -1 bad taste, didn’t even hit up the snelves. Failure of staff to communicate with their snelf leaders. Snelves will live on forever in our hearts. 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimberBuff 2102 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I don’t see the issue some have. Their culture exists, their city existed in history, they’re just removing them as a dedicated subrace. You don’t need a subrace to rp a certain culture. 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotEvilAtAll 9927 Share Posted September 25, 2020 As much as I’m not a huge fan of the Snelves, I cannot agree with this. Just removing all of their lore like that is stupid. It’ll do nothing but make them hate staff for the foreseeable future. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
