The Bringing Together of the Horde and the Alliance

With the coming of patch 2.4 blizzard has fully brought into play the fact that they want the Alliance and the Horde to work together. In Sunwell Isle you will find yourself fighting side by side with your once feared enemies, and more often than not they will give you a helping hand. Now while this fits in with blizzards story line it does seem to conflict with their previous decisions, such as cutting all lines of communication between the factions, even making it a bannable offence according to blizzards ToC's.

Personally I liked the slight PvP conflict that this brought into the game, and I hope they replace it with maybe an Aldor/Scryer rep points thing, where killing members of your own faction loses you reputation while killing those of the other boosts it. While it is a nice thought, and a much funner way of getting my rep up, I do get the feeling the Outlands would turn once more into a gankfest.

For now however we are stuck with the fact that unless we co-operate we will find our grind for the Epic Badges Vendor in Sunwell isle taking quite some time.
