I seriously doubt that many of those "brand new players" you guys seem so fond of even exist, by now. After 14 years, I would expect anyone even remotely interested in this game would have tried it already, and then he/she would not be a brand new player anymore. Are you guys seriously convinced that people who never wanted to play WoW before suddenly changed their mind because of their burning desire to roll a Void Elf? C'mon.
