Though some posterior-enthusiasts detract the point of the threads going on about wanting butts that'd use some flattering but not appropriate adjectives.

If a character's arms were too skinny compared to the rest of them, or the waist too thin for the rest of their bodies, there'd be threads about that too. Taking a look at your join date it's no surprise that you might not know how deeply aged this topic is (ever since relaunch), and if you look into it developers openly admit flatter backsides were for the sake of easing development for new armors.
I remember being in ARR just being absolutely bothered at how my character looked in the caster ironworks armor with her rear end exposed in those pants with the lines straight down the buttcheeks and them actually bending inwards at points instead of outwards. >.< I pretty much wear only tops with buttcapes to avoid that scenario again.
