Well, to be honest. Orcs value all things natural. Elves don't. Our culture is being stolen here, and we can't simply change our culture to be more like other races because then there's even less reason to play Orcs. Elves on the other hand, can learn voidal magics, druidism, shamanism, rune smithing, flesh smithing and all the rest. We have a culture dedicated to Spirituality. The problem here is that everyone wants to be an elf, because you're immortal, pretty, fast and have a big playerbase.
Which is exactly why we are so protective about our culture being outright ripped from our nation. We don't exactly have alot going for us anymore.
We're big, strong and ugly uruks, that are honourable. (Which frankly, is a big disadvantage.) For this reason, we tend to get all the uruks on the server in one nation.
On a side note, what's stopping elves from becoming honouraries and learning shamanism instead of skipping the effort and just making your own shamanism?
Then why do you take it away?
