A single arrow flits from the darkness and strikes Garrosh in the knee
Sorry.......I just.......had to.
dude have you even PLAYED skyrim? or just do memes for the heck of it? (Asakawa did told you to tone it down, in a rather epic and unforgettable way)
Also, I still don't get why people can say Pandarens are childish, I mean does
This
horde pandaren looks childish to you?
I thought the mods meant don't post meme pics or vids or whatever, I didn't know that counted too : /
My bad. And that beard option better be available for male pandaren, cuz it's boss.
its not exactly forbidden to post meme pics, meme vids, or meme quotes (Like arrow-to-the-knee) its the over-using of them that tends to get annoying.
Memes have a place and a time, and they can bring humor when used at the right moments. Used on excess they become more /roll-eyes worthy and tedious.
The Arrow-to-the-knee meme has gone into overdrive, its so badly overused its becoming more and more annoying by the day. Its even more glaring when its used by people who haven't even played skyrim.
As for the beard..... Tis on the concept art, so I'm assuming its available in-game.

ya know, reading that Metzen interview you linked, I'm honestly BAFFLED by this part:
I would say Garrosh remaining Warchief ... his term as Warchief was always going to be ... brief. Bringing him up, you know, Alex Afrasiabi created this character for Outland, hanging out in Garadar, and he was just written so well. I just went, "Wow, this character's really b1tchin'. Let's leverage him forward, let's get him going." We always knew we would make him Warchief, but that would be a short reign. It's not his Horde.
So what's totally funny to me is, as we've been talking about for the past couple of days and throwing it out to people and they were going, "
W-what! You can't get rid of him! We love him!
" As compared to two years ago, when people went, "What the hell were you thinking, Blizzard? This character sucks! You ruined my Horde! You ruined everything! What the hell are you guys smoking over there!" So it's been funny seeing going from absolute hate, recognizing fans are so incensed about it ...
o_O WHAT
THE
HELL?
I really think he made that up. WHO THE HELL would really say they love garrosh? not true horde fans that's for sure. The guy is an imbecile, a terrible leader, a horribly written character, and WHO THE HELL would miss him? I've yet to see someone crying tears for him. After they announced he's gonna die, just about everyone's reactions have been a rotound HALLELUJAH.

I've seen a few here on Wowhead since the information has come out saying they don't want it.

It may have been from back during TBC era, or early Wrath before a lot of the information was up. Back when he seemed like he was going to be an honorable version of Grom. I have to admit; if he had been played straight as learning the lessons from the mistakes of his father he may have made a decent character, maybe not leader, but definately someone Horde fans could rally around.

the worst part is that for a brief moment it seemed like he WAS going into that direction. With his actions on Stonetalon, and Later his actions on the use of fel magic in Ashenvale, it seemed he WAS learning a lesson.
Then he backpedaled straight into dumb brute territory and the facepalms haven't stopped since. (I've never issued a bigger facepalm in my entire wow career before or since that scene where he leaves his own carriers unprotected to attack an alliance patrol unit)

o_O back from the dead.
I really wish he'd just admit that he has no goddamned clue what to do with them.
Neither him, nor everyone else.
Still, could had been worst. Blood elves had a minor action on WOTLK (With the sunreavers on the argent tourney, the Quel'delar chain (Which has an exclusive special ending if you're blood elf that no other race in the game has) and other minor blood elf characters making a cameo) And Cata also had some minor blood elven action, with the Reliquary as the horde's counterpart to the Alliance's Explorer League.
Could had been better, but its still better than nothing which is what the draenei got, and what the worgen got. Seriously, they vanished from the face of the map after their starting zone. Other than 1 small outpost on blasted lands, and one even smaller outpost in stonetalon (that has only 2 quests not related to worgens at all) they completely disapear as a race. At least the Draenei And Blood elves showed up frequently on instances and quests on TBC. And the goblins had extensive involvement with the horde on old and new zones alike. Worgens? not a peep.
Time will tell how do they develop the Firepaw pandaren and the Cloudsinger pandaren and their interactions (if any) with their factions.

While I will admit it's a shame to have them build Garrosh one way (Stonetalon and all that), and then seemingly scrap him, I will still admit that I'm totally psyched to raid Garrosh (although, this will cause some serious problems for my charactera if there isn't a convienient "out" set up; Nakresh, for example, is honor bound to serve the Warchief no matter what).

I'm pretty sure there will be a moment where Thrall will call upon the Kor'krom to serve the TRUE warchief (Garrosh was, after all, ACTING warchief).
Those who are overzealous to garrosh will choose to remain with him, those who are faithful to thrall will go to his side.
And yes, all that character development, all that devotion, all that spotlight-humping, all that attention focused JUST ON HIM, only to have him go down like a punk........ =/ to think of the DOZENS of characters who could had had their minutes of glory instead of garrosh.
Gorgonna, Liandrin, and even Aponi come to mind.

Ugh, General is starting to make my head hurt with all the 'Next Warchief will be *insert name here*'; we know who it's going to be.
Of course, some brain trust said that Thrall was the new Earth Warder..../sigh

these threads always come up. Remember when it was "who's gonna be the next lich king"?
and BTW people really love to dig for any excuse to whine. Check out the monk page on the official MoP site. They're complaining about the FINGERS of the human/blood elf model there.
I guess the fact that none of those are final, is a foreign thought for them

Well not any specific thread; popping up among a lot of the MoP stuff.
