I'd rather have the Jinyu, the evolved forms of Murlocs myself.

I would like to see
Ethereal
become a race that is available to players. It's one of the few races I actually can imagine to be playable since they have no real "over the top" animations or any specific lore behind them (like they're going to destroy the world!).

they have no real "over the top" animationsWell other then their run animation which leaves afterimages of themselves behind heh.

Indeed. :p
That's one of the reasons why I think they're cool. ^^

But Jinyu don't have an annoyance factor in general (blehh aggro nightmares).

I agree with the many ethereal suggestions above.
I also agree with ogres, I've wanted those to be horde units for ages. When you designed them you could choose between having one or two heads.
Would be sweet to have dragonkin if they could make them not be overpowered compared with other races. You'd have a dragonkin form and a humanoid form.
demons would be cool too.

You're really going to bring up uniqueness in an age when the game is insanely homogenized?
And yet, I still don't see any two races which have the same racials.
Duh? Oh and maybe respond with something that actually pertains to the conversation.
wouldn't look any more awkward than the animation we have when using dragon turtles.
One mount =/= all mounts.
Seems perfectly applicable to me. You bring up one mount with awkward animations to handwave a whole race which would sit awkwardly. The exception does not make the rule.
So you're saying it would be SOOOOOO different to give a Naga a tail bracelet than it is to give the mentioned races two ankle bracelets?
Yes. Look at the other argument. You'd have to make insane changes to make them fit. It would be far more trouble than it's worth.
What it looks like to me is that you're just trying to be argumentative but are incapable of doing so effectively.
I'm not the one making insults and sliding by all the arguments without actually answering them ;)

when I first started playing long, long ago, I was fascinated with the Quilboars while questing in the Barrens. I thought to myself how much I would love a quilboar shaman (if only so I could name him Shamham).
A gnoll warrior or rogue would be fantastic too.

I've heard that back before Burning Crusade, Blizzard wanted murlocs to join the Alliance, but went with space goats instead for some reason or another. I've also heard that they originally wanted ogres to be a Horde race, and this is still on their agenda, but it keeps getting pushed back.
I approve of both of those suggestions. In fact, if murlocs became an Alliance race, I'd roll with the Alliance just so I could have murlocs.
I also approve of kittytaurs and bugs. I would LOVE to see Nerubians or Silithids join the Horde. If there is ever a split in the Horde, with the orcs and goblins going one way and the Forsaken and Blood Elves going another, the Nerubians should side with the Forsaken. Their 1-10 zone should be a "retaking of Azjol-Nerub" similar to how the gnomes have to retake Gnomeregan.
To hell with Nagas, quillboars, gnolls, kobolds, troggs, furbolgs, etc.

Tbh rather than new races entirely id prefer to see sub races and whatnot, update the models and let us customise more. Dragonmaw orcs, wildhammer dwarves, Tuanka, etc.

I like the idea of playable murlocs. I think if you brought the bugs and snakes into the horde, the darkspear would probably throw in with a third faction (or get eaten in their sleep, like always happens)
I would really enjoy the Tuskarr. They are entertaining and remind me of too many old men I know.
