This really depends on the final class/race appearance.
I would probably roll one, if it'll be allright. But not on the day one, certainly.
Main is main. Also, I don't like crowded places. I get a headache quickly.

Gotta level my pally, DK, and druid first. Then I'll see how fun monks are.

somehow I suspect the history of the Monk will be very similar to the history of the DK........
the class will be UNGODLY overpowered during the first few weeks, brought down a few notches after that first patch rolls in, and then nerf the hell out of on 5.1 AND 5.2 as well as any patches in between those, and THEN, buffed back up to a decent level in 5.3
Because of it, I wanna take advantage of them while they are ungodly op machines, and level mine as a first priority.
Zero Heirlooms (except the weapons and trinkets) and once they get the massive nerfhammer, I'll get back on my main (DK) till the monk is un-nerfed, which should happen 2 major patches later.
Thanks to the LFR I no longer have to rush my main all the way to 85. That's something I had to do on cata to be able to raid BoT/BwD/To4W while they were still relevant (given the common tradition of the wow community to refuse to pug older obsolete raids) but on MoP all the raids will be available on LFR both on launch and after subsequent patches, so there's not much of a rush.
As for if I'm gonna make that monk my new main......... that will be something I'll answer much later. It depends if I have more fun on it than my DK, its not so much as if its strong or not, but rather if its fun or not.
I played an arcane mage, strongest OP machine i've ever seen, but wasn't very fun to me, DKs on the other hand, with their rune-management and procs are something I really dig. So far the only class I've come close to adopting as a second main is the revamped hunters ever since they use focus.

Don't think it will be that ungodly, since it starts at level 1 rather then at 55, which is where the balance issues were coming from.

Definately wait. Level my priest/rogue/paladin/warrior first before i stark a monk. Even then i will probably only play on nights i have to stay up.... 8 level 85's atm really drains a person from questing anymore.

at the level cap, DK's were still the best everything during the first months of WOTLK.
best tanks, best pvpers and best DPS.
While I agree that a nerf was needed, they really went overboard with them, and by 3.2 I was barely able to kill 3 mobs of my own level without getting my ass handed back to me.
Somehow I suspect the same will happen to the monk, it will be ungodly strong, then nerfed to hell, then buffed back to a decent enough level.

Give Blizzard some credit. They should have learned about doing their own estimations before following crowd whines.

Raise my DK to 90 and THEN roll a Monk to ensure maximum demolition.
I'm not entirely sure on the race of choice but I can imagine Troll Monk would be hilarious.
RASTA MONK, MON.
Also, I wouldn't mind a Pandaren. They aren't THAT bad, as far as I can see the only people whining about them are mediaholics. LOLKUNGFUPANDA.

unhuh......
one would think that after having to introduce Sunwell Radiance to counter the fact that they screwed up itemization on TBC allowing people to get RIDICULUS amounts of avoidance, they'd never have to do so again.
Right?
then cue WOTLK, and TA-DAH, it happened again with the chill of throne debuff.
Blizz hardly learns after the first mistake.
I'm somewhat skeptical that they'll balance the monks alright from the first get-go. I could end up being wrong, but somehow I am sure monks will share the same history as DKs. Op as HELL during the first patch, then nerfed to hell on the subsequent patches, then fixed up on the final patch.

I'll level first incase I get any BoE's on the way up that I can use for my Monk after capping at 90.
