@Critical Error: so you wouldn't care if you rolled a beefy Ogre male yet others saw you as a dainty High Elf female? Of course my example is extreme, but where is the line drawn exactly? And yes, there are substantial differences between Luclin/old-world models, so different that they almost come close to the extreme I just mentioned.

One of the human models is a scruffy blonde guy with an eyepatch. I have no idea what the equivalent is on the Luclin side, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's nowhere close to that.

This is the essence of role-playing games, particularly those of the multiplayer variety. Immersion is greatly improved when you have the peace of mind of knowing that what you see is what someone else sees. If you don't think that matters, fine, but a lot of other people understand why it would.

All that said, I still don't think it's a big deal if someone "cracked" it such that he can see Luclin models. But I definitely understand and adopt Dumesh's philosophy.
