Why? Probably cause they were a joke around the office.
All that leads in some sense to why people dislike the race and expansion.
Over time some gamers were pushed closer and closer to that "last straw" moment. Pandas were it, if not pokemon or farmville or any other number of features. At some point, they decided there not going to support or fund MoP for whatever reason pushed them there. Take your pick or come up with something on your own but pandas was the last straw for a good many people..
I can get how you might like MoP but can you honestly say you can't understand how some gamers don't ?
