Before they were too strong, arguably spec defining.
Now they’re almost inconsequential BUT there are still power disparities (like stoneskin, meld, etc.)
At this point it just makes more sense to make races purely aesthetic choices and just give everyone slots that lets you mix/match racial passives and abilities.
If you’re not pushing the top of the top content, it really doesn’t matter. Play what you like or play the race you think you have to play to complete content. It’s really that simple.
No thank you.
Does being small have an advantage? 
I’d argue it has disadvantages. I have LoS problems on my goblin on the last boss in the Rookery lol.
And puddles force you to swim where taller races can walk thru lol
Better idea - just disable Racial abilities in Mythic Raids, M+whatever (don’t do M+ so I don’t know what level could be considered “competitive”), and Rated PVP.
The sweat lords don’t have to worry about it and the casuals can continue to enjoy their fun toys.
Hmm. To balance that racial aspect, we should make gnomes bigger. 
Or the sweat lords can just deal with it like they have for the past 20 years.
Disabling racials or making them just talents we choose just removes another RPG feature from this MMORPG.
Play the races you want and if anyone tells you otherwise show them the door.
No thanks. I like soaring as a Dracthyr. Racial abilities makes the races unique.
I agree with all of this. I’m just tired of seeing thread after thread of the sweaties whining about the <1% difference Racials make.
Love how its always Meld and Stoneform but never “Dumpster Gnomes have a cheat-death racial”
But removing racials would hurt the alliance significantly more
So it won’t happen
My proposition is players just have a load out they can swap in racial abilities/passives from the games pool. So both factions would have all available. Just tweak some naming conventions. Like Shadowmeld is now Hide or Sneaky and everyone can get it. Things like that. It’s a unanimous win for character customization and flavor.
Yea but then alliance won’t have a huge advantage
The issue isn’t the racials themselves it was opening more classes to specific races. Shadowmeld is everywhere in PVP right now since all but two or three classes can now be nightelves.
Name one piece of content you can do as a dwarf but can’t do as a worgen
I am on the opposite side
Make them even stronger.
I’ll keep my space laser, thank you. Take it off the GCD tho. Why is an attack from a space ship in orbit triggering my global cooldown?
Lore demands this change.
You can get rid of the anvil. Or combine the two and let me drop it on enemies from orbit looney toons style.
Only if I get my Dragon sized Dracthyr.
