Or to be mocked as not having skill because its supposedly harder to play <insert class name here>. And it sucks all the more to see people you admire or are supposedly aligned in common interest (ie Lurkers) perpetuating these kind of stupid misconceptions. THAT is why folks are getting wound up over this issue.At least pallies generally only get spit on by horde. Gnomes get spit on and worse by both horde and alliance. About the only people (in general) who don't harrass gnomes are other gnomes. It's really interesting though the comraderie (sp?) between gnomes. Random gnomes I've met (while playing a gnome) will hug or cheer or greet other gnomes just because they are gnomes. On Cenarion Circle, there's even a gnome guild that sent out a bag and some heal pots to brand new gnomes. It was a nice little surprise for our twin warriors. Everyone else seems to irrationally hate gnomes so we just kinda cluster together and are glad to see one of our own. And this is on non RP servers too.
