You know, that was TOTALLY lore-friendly, the way you could be a pitch black Altmer with pink hair. I understand people are quite angry at some of the things with ESO (Mainly the price and leveling), but this is just silly. They can very easily patch in some more yellow skin-tones if the ones available in-game are still too human-like. No need to be a douche about it. All I said was that it was misleading, which is true. Also, you're pretty naive if you think Zenimax are going to "patch this out". 5 of the 20 available skin tones are like this (i.e. it was intentinal, not something they did on accident). Also, Bethesda never said Oblivion's character customization was lore friendly (and none of the NPC's were black with pink hair). It would be more reasonable to look at Skyrim's character customization as a good example for how it should be.
