Well, it's usually the top end content that has the ability to equalize (to some degree) a non min/maxed race choice since there are stat caps.
Ogre vs <80str/sta race on a war is very noticeable, especially when undergeared. You're right though that some people will hate it due to size/graphics/etc. Just depends on whether the tradeoff in performance is worth it to you.

Somewhat disagree with first paragraph, totally agree with second.
Here's why I disagree: This server has been in kunark so long that you can get REALLY good gear in EC and minimize the stat disadvantages. Plus, skill DOES account for something. Sure, an equally skilled and geared Ogre/Troll/Ikky Warrior and DE/gnome/wood elf warrior are going to have a noticeable difference among them. But a meh ogre/troll/ikky is not going to be as desirable as a GOOD warrior of whatever race.
Personally, I think if you learn your class you can overcome the stat differences. Sure, life may be a little bit tougher, but 1) the lack of an xp penalty helps ease that burden (though with warrior it's not bad even with the large races) and 2) it's not too hard to overcome (in consideration with the p99 economy, of course).
