Yay, we got /favor. But would it be too much to ask for a /favour command as well?

Why?

Too short message.

/favor instead.......SIGH

Agree with Quru..

WHY?

And is this a suggestion or a question?

Out of all the emotes and commands, there is exactly ONE which has variable spelling. It's this one.

The reason to ask for /favour is it's a pain in the neck when I type the word correctly and nothing happens. I'm sure there are many other players who find the same thing.

It's not a strange concept. It's why there's a Wikipedia redirect from "Armor" to "Armour", and, due to GW being created by Americans, a GuildWiki redirect from "Armour" to "Armor".

The reason for the short post is I thought it was rather obvious.

All the languages are valid.

I'm from the US, so this doesn't really affect me as I type /favor anyway. However, that's not really important. I think GW, being a global game, should have /favour if that's considered to be the correct spelling in any country with as large a player base as the UK or Australia.

And I don't think it's really necessary to go into whether it's correct or incorrect to spell it favor or favour. If favour is correct in your country, that's cool, but in other places it can be favor or beneplácito (thanks Mithran). They're all the same word.

Well one sentence didn't make it obvious for me and for someone else, so you were a bit vague you have to admit that. If it was a bit more.....explanatory? then I wouldn't have asked why and replied in one sentence either....ahem. Sorry if you mis-construed the answer, but as i said is it a suggestion or a question.
I was a bit short(apologies) because I started off thinking you meant we had got favour and you wanted a command to see if it was active....see how easily its mis-construed

And as for it being spelled correctly, that's correct....in UK English. Not American English. And before you say it I'm in the UK too, so im not being xenophobic.
Mehhh whatever floats your boat at the end of the day mate, don't really see the big issue. I can easily type either, its no big deal, just one letter.....it isn't hard to do for me. They have probably got more important things on at the moment like GW:EN and a major dupe exploit being found

You take our districts away
You refuse to give us a game in our language (that yours is decended from)
You change the favour system because you can't get it.

Where will it end?
