Gamemaster's are not affected by this with gm tags on not sure about off, i have not tested on the horde yet.

I can also confirm this bug.

ExO · Oct 5, 2016

Will look into it asap! Might release a hotfix for it

Good deal Exo, thanks.

Hmm, very weird. I can't seem to confirm, I tested it on latest version (progress to 6.3). Let me try to download a clean base of the repack and confirm.
As you see here:

UPDATE:
I even tested it with the actual 6.2 version, and I still couldn't confirm. Can you send more proofs? (Details, screenshots etc?)

I'm honestly not sure what else I can do to prove it, we were playing alliance characters but it acts as if the same factions are unfriendly. That being said i'm open to suggestions cause this is annoying we have a clean world however if this makes a difference we did turn off cross faction grouping which shouldn't be on by default based on a blizzlike setup.

this setting we turned off as it's not blizzlike but was on by default

#
# AllowTwoSide.Interaction.Group
# Description: Allow group joining between factions.
# Default: 0 - (Disabled)
# 1 - (Enabled)

AllowTwoSide.Interaction.Group = 0

I see. Did it work correctly on version 6.1? Without bugging like it does now?

charrison82 · Oct 6, 2016

Don't know I played 3.3.5 prior to a few weeks ago, so i figure the bug has been there possibly since the beginning but was masked by that setting for cross faction being on.

charrison82 · Oct 6, 2016

Turning cross faction back on does allow grouping, for us it's a temp solution but for those who run a blizzlike server this would allow horde and alliance to group and that's just wrong lol.

Right. Thanks for the information. I've looked into it, and found the cause. Making the fix as we speak.
