Plain and simple: I don't want fairies. I don't want emo fairies. I don't want emo haircuts. I don't want people to call out to me with "Come to gaze upon me, have you?" or "My ancestors don't understand me; they're from a completely different era(big words bad...what gaze mean?)." I don't want vast expanses of orange and purple (Making the game colorful and pretty to look at makes it less manly)(whose idea was it for these colors to ever come together in Barren Sky? Fire them, immediately). I don't want imaginative new hats (warlock class hat). The general trend here is that, on these topics specifically, the developers completely missed the mark on content that I actually want. I think Fairies are stupid, and there really isn't anything more to say about that. From a technical standpoint, the gliding thing is awesome, but you're still a fairy (I can't play a fairy because I'm insecure). Some females like them (I can't let anyone know I really like them too...what would they think?!), and I'll admit that the gliding thing is cool, but every other aspect of a fairy is decidedly not-cool, and it alienates at least 50% of the game's population (I'm making up stats here to support my point, which I have no actual evidence for other than I want what I want and don't care about anyone else). Also, EMO AND METROSEXUAL CONTENT DOES NOT ATTRACT PLAYERS. It makes me turn my eyes in disgust(once again I'm very insecure about my sexuality. If I play a fairy, people will think I'm less of a man). It's a waste of money on the developer's part (Naturally, giving a large portion of the playerbase something that they want is a poor business decision by the devs). There's so much of it in this game that it really detracts from the fun of certain areas, especially starter neighborhoods in Qeynos. So please, do me and your pocketbook a favor by not releasing content that alienates me.(Give me what I want! Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! If you don't I'll threaten to stop paying for the game!)

I fixed your post for you. All the edits are blue and bold...I know this is what you meant to say.
