Ive increasingly been hearing that people are playing rogues less.The last tidbit of information told me 7% of lvl 80 players are now rogues. How much truth is their in this? Are we fading out? Will people be saying in a year or so " Ah rogues i remember them!".
Are we destined to live as outcasts, paraded in freakshows, myths in childrens stories?
what in gods name am I talking about !

if rogues are outcasts, then DKs should be erased from memory.

DK are the most popular horde class!.......there everywhere, there like burberry in the naughties, beer and ben sherman shirts in the 90s and shellsuits in the 80s...all seemed a good idea at the time.

I think Rogues still outnumber Shamans.
But t7 content was not very melee friendly. I haven't set foot in Ulduar yet, but I hear there are fights where Rogues are actually highly desired. I enjoy the rogue playstyle and I'm happy it's not the OP/FotM class. I can't stand DKs. Played one to 60 and deleted it. Haven't rerolled one since.

Considering there are only 10 classes in the game, 7% of players being Rogues isn't really much of an under-representation.

I feel the same way. Yeah, there could be more rogues, but how many Shammies or Mages do you see in full tier gear?
not quite as many shammies, but mages in full t7.5 are ALL OVER the damn place. (my main being a mage, i can spot the gear from a distance)..
i hardly see any rogues in full tier'd gear, and run into them in instances even less than i used to... i'm not complaining... i'm making serious thought into making my rogue my main when i ding 80. :)

if less ppl plays rogues, more drops for me.

I can understand rogues playing less, because popping out, failing to kill someone, then burning every cooldown you have in a desperate attempt to sprint/vanish away gets boring after the 5th or 6th time in one BG.

I would say there are generally less rogues than previously. Considering you used to find them in piles 3 deep around most banks/auction houses a year or so ago tho I think the population has just levelled out.
Those that are suited to playing a rogue have kept with it (and should generally be fighting for top dps in raids again now at least). The flavour of the month re-rollers are on deathknights or hunters it seems :)
I certainly have no plans for giving my rogue up anytime soon.
