I dig what you are saying, it's not just the sylvari I have a problem with- it's just one of the things that set Guild Wars apart for me was that it was humans only.
Maybe just limiting the choices to Charr and human, and have the two fight it out for control of resources/territory would be cool, but I don't want to see yet another generic fantasy game where you choose from like 6 different species (erroneously called races, not to mention that it's biologically improbable if not impossible). That shit needs to stay in LotR and D&D, and nowhere else.
