Agreed. And it's looking more and more like our "new race" are actually going to be sub-races or extra customization... which is unacceptable, imo.
If SoE could add a new race, a new class, and new character models for ALL of their previous races in ONE expansion, so can Blizzard. I understand that EQ is a very old game, but they had 12 races before the expansion that released all of the above, and while the playerbase was split between loving and hating the new models, they were objectively much better quality than the previous ones. Blizzard updated... nine races, I think, by the start of WoD and added in the tenth a patch in, if I'm not mistaken.
Well, if we do get sub-races, I really hope they come with model updates for Worgen and Goblin. :U
Notice how I said "since Mists". Everything I said is 100% factual. If we don't get a new race in 8.0, then it'll be at least eight years of content (2012-2020, assuming 8.0 releases in 2018) before another possible race.

Okay, then I'll go with another approach: What's so bad about that? I'll take a new class over a new race anyday, since a new race adds very little to the actual gameplay. Sure, customization is nice, but in the end people care more about their Main-Tank being a Demon Hunter or Death Knight, rather than him being a Tauren or a Vrykul.
I am just excited for whatever is next!
I'm with Deldramar. But I understand that it's also opinion. I think it's getting ridiculous, as I've personally always preferred new races over new classes. I enjoy seeing new classes too, but seeing as I've wanted naga (or some other reptilian race) in this game to be playable, yeah I'm going to feel that way.
It will be the biggest possible let down for me. :P Mostly because if we don't get naga in 8.0, it's very unlikely that we'll ever get them. And I find it to be a crying shame if we don't. I was never all that excited about sub-races anyways (unless we get nightborne elves, I'd be okay with that), so if that's all we get, it's going to kind of suck.
I probably won't quit, not fully, but it's still gunna be a blow.
I feel this way 100%. As an altoholic and RPer, a new race is what I look forward to the most. I don't even care if the new race has a new starting zone. I realize my feelings aren't the majority, but a new race is literally all I care about, everything else in an expansion is just bonus.
At this point, I'd settle for them adding races to the cash shop even if I had to pay as much as an expansion to unlock each one.
