I want it to be a Saurfang themed event where he became a meme in the first place. Cleaving bugs with his fists.
I don’t have awe for it since people were transferring servers to get it.

He has a point, we devalued it as players by exploiting that that. Even if it’s still limited in scope, it will always add the asterisk of ‘when/how did you get it’
And because the achievement system didn’t come around until WotLK… you never know who is legit and who isn’t unless you were actually “there” when it happened legitimately and saw the people who got it.

Even on top of that, most of the people who got that mount had entire guilds or help behind it. It’s not like someone did it all on their own, at least on any server I knew. It wasn’t like a one man effort.
Really that whole guild should have gotten the title.

Wait. Did this actually happen? I mean, it wouldn’t surprise me if it did since blizz never did ban the people who exploited the Legion WQ for Honor, but this is crazy.
They didn’t technically break any rules. No one had claimed it on the new servers yet. There wasn’t anything really to stop them until Catacylsm.

Not on paper, but we were told that this behaviour would be investigated and rewards removed from players who exploited the situation.
If you see a Scarab Lord, the chances of them being legitimate are infinitesimally small. The vast majority of them simply completed the quest solo when that was doable, then waited for a new server to open up server transfers to trash their event.
Also, there was a very suspicious “bug” that allowed people to complete the Bang a Gong! quest for a few hours after all servers had completed the event.

But they aren’t.

But people certainly are asking. 
And Blizzard as an entity seems to be in a listening mood as of late.

These joke “bring back” threads need to stop. They’re not funny anymore.

It’s more nuanced than you think it is in that no one is asking for a do over but because the wrath server jumpers, the title is meaningless atm.
Okay, but they still aren’t doing what you claim they are. You should edit that out.

Please stop taking the bait
No thanks. Started with the “if” conditional.

We’re not though, so why would they bring back the Scarab Lord title and Black Qiraji Battle Tank?
Thread is bait. Don’t bite.
That hasn’t stopped people from asking.
All I’m trying to say is that, if they acquiesce, they need to be entirely inclusive in bringing everything back rather than picking and choosing. If they decide to void exclusivity for one group, it follows that they should void it for everyone.
We shouldn’t bring it back but we should add something like it again. I’m always of the opinion going backwards is pointless, we need to innovate if we want to make new, better things.
The mount is also super low rez now. Make a new one. Do an event. Make something new.
They actually updated the mount for existing Scarab Lords a few years ago:
