Why is the Warmane community (or at least the Alliance) so abrasive?

I'm talking about crap like "stop being a *****, ganking is part of the game", "are you ******ed?", "****ing low gs nubs". Just now, when I found myself being unable to rez, I was asked what to do in General Chat and I was told "Uninstall".

During my brief time playing as a Horde character on Warmane, I never really saw this much mean spirited behavior towards myself and other players (If anything, I saw more Horde helping players than Alliance). As I've stated on previous threads, I mained Horde on retail throughout the majority of my time on there. The reason I went Alliance was because I wanted a change of pace. Yeah, I played Horde on Warmane, but not for very long as I had ultimately decided to roll Alliance to see how I'd like it.

I've actually had a lot of trouble deciding between Horde and Alliance (especially since I have a level 80 Ally Druid and can't afford to faction change), but it may be time to either quit Warmane or just roll Horde and stay Horde.

Not nearly as bad as the things I've seen people say on horde. Actually, the things you've heard aren't even bad at all, it's typical crap that most kids say because they think they are trolls. But the way I've seen horde act (at least on Wrath) I would NEVER play horde again.

Do u really think that there is a difference between horde and alliance?
Its the same community with just different racial preferences.

Well idk, I had a horde player tell me to kill myself because I accidentally killed the quest target before him, and I was only level 12.

both sides have their aholes. easiest way to avoid it is to avoid communication outside your guild if you can. personally even in rdf's i rarely ever talk. and i avoid global like a vegan avoids meat.

Because after ten thousand of same things over and over again people grow cynical.
And performing few basic human function in this age(like finding information how to rez, "low gs people" finding guides, etc) you can avoid all that.
Be a good Samaritan when the next guy asks same thing. I bet after few dozen times you will say "Uninstall." too, you are just at beginning of this cycle.
Take in account that people in game have poor social skills by default, outcome is logical. After said interactions if one of them is snowflake we can see posts on forum how bad everyone is.

Well... ****

Now you see why I choose to be a solo player and not involve myself with the community in game and ignore everyone who chats with me.

Solution is simple - find a guild with players who have similar interests in game. You don't expect strangers on the street to care about your crap, but people in your town might.

I personally think that both factions have it's own bastards for example all the time i see ****-posting on global chat on Alliance, however when I tried to go on BG's with low gear 300k I got bullied by teammates that was yelling ''ey noob low gear fts''. This is game and every comunity has its *****s.
