This is not a cry-fest that Forsaken used the Blight, and it won't be discussed here -_- this is How on god's green earth did the Forsaken manage to Hide the fact that they're using the Blight from Garrosh? Hell The road into Gilneas is Paved with Blight-wagons... Southshore is a blighted mess... And many more examples, is this just bad story telling or is Sylvanas a Wizard that can cloak things in a pocket-dimension now -_-

It takes weeks to get from EK to Org...
Might have an effect.

Sylvanas is the 'warlord' of the Northern Eastern Kingdoms; Garrosh arrived once to inspect her new troops then had to withdraw to deal with other issues(read: Stonetalon and the like), so it's not like it's hard to hide it; and the Orc commander in Tarren Mill didn't seem to overtly care too much as she played misdirection to get him focused on the Stormpikes....but Drek'thar knew about it, and wasn't happy.
Edit: And very
relevant.

The Forsaken aren't prohibited from using Blight.
They're prohibited from using the perfected strain of Blight that was used by Putress in Northrend.
Of course, in several instances, Sylvanas still uses full strength Blight, but either no one sees (in Gilneas) or an excuse is given (in Shadowfang Keep).
The reason the full strength Blight in Shadowfang Keep isn't noticed is because Belmont tells Cromush that it's a weak form of Blight to scare away the worgen or some such, and since Cromush is obligated to show respect and trust to his allies, even the Forsaken, he has to take that at face value due to no real evidence pointing otherwise.
In Gilneas, I believe it's chucked up to there being no one but the Forsaken there, so it's Forsaken vs. Worgen + Alliance forces, so Sylvanas orders the full strength Blight to still be used once the orc overseer warns her about the Warchief's warnings.
So yes, Garrosh has prohibited the use of full strength Blight, but Sylvanas still finds all sorts of loopholes and moments to use it behind the Warchief's back.

relevant.
Hahah, brilliant...Garry.
Though it wasn't Garrosh himself there warning Sylvanas, but I guess that's not too important in this case since the humor is carried across better with Garrosh vs. Sylvanas.

Well yeah like i was saying the Orc hadn`t even left the room (despawned or w/e) when he asked if they were still using the blight + i assume the orc went through the Greymane wall and where would she hide all those Blight Wagons?
Edit: Not gonna lie that face is gonna be in my Nightmares + You can jump out of the water during that quest after the Orc leaves and nothing happens Go Blizzard! Haha... Garry... Haha

The Forsaken still use Blight and Blight Wagons.
It's their equivalent of Horde Demolishers with fiery boulders for ammo.
They've just been prohibited from using the lethal strain of Blight, but it's Blight...it all looks the same.

That's a pretty stupid Policy seeing as Orcs don't know which is which -_- Go Horde Politics! Speaking of which, the gnomes have to get off their @$$'s and give the Alliance a WMD... Maybe the Iradiator just they used in Gnomer, I don't care just give us something that goes boom-boom.

The Horde officials could likely tell the difference - I doubt even Garrosh is that stupid - but the thing is; they have massive numbers of conflicts everywhere else in the world, their forces, just like the Alliance's, are spread thin. I think that even Cromush, who has both the worgen and the Stormpike to keep an eye on, has a little much on his plate, so throw in a few clues in the Blight that seems to show that its 'harmless' they'll likely move on to keeping watch on the battles and ensuring they don't lose.
But the thing is: you're not meant to leave the water. That in mind, you wouldn't be able to see Garrosh and them despawned, only that they have left the room and are presumed to have left the building (which is, I'm sure, what really happend). The reason they don't Sylvanas and her friend leave not soon after, they likely decided to save programing space and waiting untill all four characters were together to put "Despawn all creatures at point A."
The the comic; I wanted to link it myself when I first saw it, but I'm glad I didn't. It's much more fitting here. Blight halo = lolz
