Both and neither. I started off with a Horde character, because the guy introducing me to WoW played on the Horde side. I got bored in the Barrens, made another character (this one on the Alliance side) and spent a good few weeks raiding before TBC came out. Stopped playing a few weeks after the Ulduar patch in WotLK, got convinced by my friends to start playing again a week before the Cataclysm, this time as Horde, so I did. Eventually realized why I stopped playing earlier on and quit once more. Haven't played it since February/March.
I love the Warcraft universe and it's characters, but the tedious daily grind I could do without... And a lot of people who went for the daily heroic instance were bastards. They would complain and still be the worst member of the group, and if called out on it they would start throwing insults... '-_-

I remember that I was distinctly for the Horde, back when I played WoW. My favorite race is Tauren, I just think that they're awesome, like the male tauren dance. I don't begrudge the Alliance, although it was a bit generic for me, but my favorite Ally race is definitely the Draenei.
My experience with the Horde players was that they were relatively more nicer to group with than Alliance players. But that became moot when you progress with your level. Then niceness/etiquette apparently gets shat on while sleeping the moment you go into any dungeon/instance in the Outlands.
Off topic: But didn't you guys think that for the latest expansion WoW should have added more hero classes? that seemed to have been the logical progression for me. particularly having a Demon Hunter class as well as one hero class unique to each race. Well, that was what I was thinking anyways.

Before I quit, MY MAIN WAS A HUMAN MAGE!! *Faints*
But yeah, I played Alliance because I found they were generally more mature than Horde. Horde was full of kids thinking they were fighting the power by being an Orc.
Defiant for the win...oh, wait.
Started shortly before BC, and was pretty much Horde-only; Alliance seemed too Tolkienian and didn't interest me. When they put out BC, I started playing both sides...because there's nothing to shake up standard fantasy like crashing a spelljammer full of lawful-good tieflings off its west coast.

Ha! I'm gonna start quoting that in real life. I can't believe I've never heard it before this. But that's just me. I'm usually lurking on YouTube or Twitter. :LSharalon said:
Right now im playing alliance, but i like horde better, i feel less bored for lacked of better words when im playing a horde toon, no clue why though.
I played one year as Alliance and three years as Horde.
From a lore point of view I would be the Alliance - although, never a human. (Those guys were such bastards.) - because their lore suits me better, but in the World of Warcraft universe I'm definitely a proud member of the Horde.
From my experiences on the realms I have been on Horde have been generally friendly and nicer players than the Alliance. The Alliance seemed to be full of immature douchebags who just enjoyed ganking people. This is definitely also true for the Horde as well, but I find the Alliance do it more.
For the record: I played Night Elf Druid, Draenei Priest and then Blood Elf Mage and Tauren Druid.

Glory to the Alliance.
I don't play anymore. But I could never bring myself to side with the Horde purely because they ally themselves with The Forsaken. I have nothing really against the other Horde races. But The Forsaken are so sickeningly evil that I have to consider them an enemy and by extension the rest of The Horde for protecting them.
Undead destruction is kind of a theme for me, I suppose. So that was the basis for my decision when it came time to pick sides.

I played (past tense) both sides when I used to play but I leaned more towards Alliance and playing Dwarves.
I have characters in both.
There's a special place in my heart for the Alliance, for all of my memories playing Warcraft 2 & 3, but that heart is mostly Horde.
The scales have tipped again lately, though.
