    unfortunately... I am from Jersey... and can't even answer that question for you... no one from NJ that I know has even uttered that phrase in public or private for that matter.

    If Goblins were from Jersey, they wouldn't live in Orgimmar. They'd live in Crossroads and commute to Org via bridges and tunnels, and then complain about the Kodo traffic.

    I'm going to have to disagree on them sounding like New Yorkers, since I am born and raised in Queens NY. I'm willing to accept Long Island, but it's easier to just classify LI in with Jersey since both places, kinda meh.

    Edit: They're not rude enough to be New Yorkers basically.

    Jersey, Never heard of it. Joisey I have though.

    Actually it's more like Staten Island not Long Island and you can put those guys up in the NYC/NJ Metropolitan area. Since those guys aren't down here in South Jersey. Which I still believe should be a completely separate state. We suffer for the crap up there.

    than I guess you've never been to or talked to anyone in Southern Jersey, come on down to Atlantic City, I'll show you how Jersey is really pronounced.

    They have Brooklyn accents! They've had them even since in WC3.
    But I must agree, they sound a bit different now.

    The dialect is NY Italian American. It can be found in Brooklyn, Long Island, Staten Island, North Jersey and some areas of Mid-Jersey.

    To some people it can be grating but I don't mind it.

    There are many different dialects and accents in the game - I particularly hate the Dranaei accent so I don't play one.

    They REALLY are saying "laundry," dude. If you're hearing anything else, either turn your volume up or get your ears checked.

    This made me lol hard! I'm from Texas, and I've visited NY four times. Three times to NYC and once to Albany; to say NY'ers aren't rude is so funny!

    It's a pretty general North American accent. Like most.. they have actors most likely from California copying the accents so it's kind of "meh".

    I would have preferred our sweet Mass-Boston Accents There is a difference.. I think.
