Having debated with countless "intelligent" folks over the last year, they are usually broken into 3 camps:
1) GnoMeZ R TeH ShoRt!11!!1 Dey SuX!!111!!
2) GNomIeZ R GooFy N TeH StooPid!!11eleventyone!11!!
3) GnoMeZ R 2 weeek cuz dey r smallz... so dey can't fite!
That pretty much sums up the arguements I've seen. All three are sad, pointless, and horribly uninformed. Once in awhile you'll get a gnome bash from someone who actually has more intelligence than a dead roadkilled wombat that has been sitting in the road for over a week. Those however are unfortunately few and far between.
Gnomes are the greatest and most powerful race in Warcraft history and soon we shall subjegate all others races under our... albiet small... iron fisted rule. And yes, we steal your undies.
It's just so unfair!!! I mean, gnomes with little to do with warcraft lore get to be a playable race, but not goblins? It's just not fair!!!
1) Goblins were brought into Warcraft during Warcraft 2, the same time as the Gnomes in fact.
2) Tauren, the Forsaken, and the Night Elves didn't even exist until Warcraft 3. The Night Elves argueably have gotten more "lore" behind them since Warcraft 3, but the Tauren? The Forsaken?
You will find that certain personality types are drawn to certain class/race combinations. This isn't a hard fact, but a general rule. In my 5 years of EQ, I have never met a gnome caster that I liked. Some were passable, the rest were complete pricks. The same goes for Paladins in EQ. I had like 2 paladin friends, who quit their paladins and started other toons, but all the other paladins were either tards that couldn't play their class right, or downright arseholes.
So right off, gnomes (at least for me) are on the "kill first, kill again, maybe ask questions later" list. On top of that, they really don't belong in the game as other races would have been better suited. And how ganomes got in game and nor goblins I still don't understand :P
THe funniest things about gnomes are their voices, and also the fact that they're always "shaking", even when standing still lol :p. It's almost unnerving really. The funniest thing would be to see an all-gnome raid of over 40 people or so. Makes me think of the mummy returns, with all those scarab beetles swarming etc..
