Forum Post of the Day: Where's the flavor?

This thread brings up an interesting point about the minute differences between the various races. As far as gameplay goes, rarely is there any significant advantage to playing one race over another. So where is the flavor? Shouldn't the different races have a different feel to them -- beyond different skin textures and flirts? Priests get special class abilities based on their race, so why not expand the idea to the other classes, and give each racial option a unique feel?
I would personally argue that the priest racial abilities are a complete failure, with several very powerful abilities and many useless or nearly useless abilities, causing constant conflict within the class. But that's not to say the concept is flawed, just that any such abilities would have to be very carefully considered.
