LOL I'm sorry, but that actually made me laugh.

Pygmies. Vile little buggers.

As for tamable mobs, there's only one skin of monkey I kind of like, but it doesn't come in non-pickaxe-wielding form, so I really don't care for any of them. Or gorillas. They're not cute, cool, or interesting to me in any way. They look and sound... just plain dumb.

Foxes because everyone I've seen uses japanese terms integrated into english. Stupid people, just shut up FFS!
Monkeys because all I ever see for named are "Porch", a certain N word, and "Spank". It was funny at first, but it's just plain old.
Half-assed names like "Fluffy" on monstrous pets. Zombie Bears and Core Hounds are not fluffy.
Old scorpid models. They just look like bad enemies from an N64 game.
Black Warpstalker. Sorry Veph, but all the "goth" kids keep whispering me, and it irritates me. Beautiful red Warp Stalker is better because I don't get stupid people!


Terrorpene because people are plain out F-tards about it on my server. I gave up going for it because of that. I'll just wait for Nemesis to be properly tagged as tamable.

Gorillas, Monkeys - Hate 'em IRL so I hate 'em in the game too.
Frost Worgs - A model taken from that stupid movie 300. Friggin' thing looks like it's starved and eaten with mange.
Foxes - I had no issue with these until I tanked with a hunter that had one. damn thing NEVER shuts up!!
Wolves, Dogs - Don't like dogs.
Boars, Rhinos - too damn ugly.
Karoma - Poor and sad excuse for a spirit beast. Enough cat and wolf spirit beasts. lets try something new and PLEASE let's put effort into it next time!!! DX!!!!


Everything else is fine.

I don't care what anyone says, Gorillas = awesome. Leave my Numindium alone! He takes the time to scratch an itch on his arse while tanking ffs, that's badass!

Spiders, scorpids. I just don't do well with arachnids. That being said, I will admit to taking a spin over Madexx's spawn points while out mining, not with the intent to tame, but just to see a rare in the wild. The Blade's Edge chimeras bug the hell out of me. Not the model...just that one particular skin, namely because I would get jumped by about a half-dozen of them at a time leveling during BC and my dislike of those little yellow-green buggers has lasted to this day.

Blizzard put this in because everyone was wanting Spirit Wolves/Grimtotem Wolves but evidently they didn't wanna make people [the few of them] with the wolves feel less special, so they made it a spirit beast.

Understand now?

It's still just a recycled model that wasn't touched up in the slightest bit. But then I don't really mind the 'tough luck' factor. Having a retired pet is pretty cool in my opinion even if I didn't have one. I think both Karoma and Ghostcrawler were poorly designed spirit beasts. Maybe next time.

Then why aren't you mad about Gondria- the model is tbh worse than Karoma. Karoma's model has existed ingame since the spirit guide [tauren quest] and SFK. It's even been used on shammy wolves, and while I admit that I wouldn't have minded a SB colored the same as Karoma is while under the effects of TBW [black, red, awsome!] you need to understand that some people want it BECAUSE of the recycled skin, because it's the only way they can get that.

Besides we're slowly branching out into other creatures to be spirit beasts, it's just taking time as just because we want a ghostly devilsaur or a tron raptor, doesn't mean it'll happen [IE pictures in another thread], this very second.

besides, pro tip, everything in wow is recycled in one form or another, especially base models and skins :p

Heck, anything that will occasionally fail to have a respawn timer and just instantly respawn upon death. I am opposed to any more corpseruns than necessary that don't involve Deathwing.

On the PTR, all Deadmines monkeys have their pickaxes confiscated upon being tamed, even pre-existing tames. So, you can have the monkey you want without having to worry about the ape accidentally sodomizing itself with that pickaxe.

For me, the non-Quillfang ravager models. Those teeth (or sorry excuses for teeth) are just plain hideous!

Tru fax - I noticed shale spiders share the same model/frame as crabs. I can't stand how crabs' feet slide around on the ground while idle. Thus, Taric (Jadefang) has remained in my stable since the discovery. I like him well enough to not get rid of him, but I probably won't use him until they fix those slippery feet.

Yes, I really do find the oddest little things that drive me crazy, and once I notice it's there, I can't stop noticing it.

wow, you know, there's really a LOT of unbridled hate in this thread.
honestly, get help.

Eh, we all have our peeves in life. There's nothing wrong with detesting certain pet/npc models. If everyone were happyhappyhappy about everything all the time... that might get creepy. Like having a room full of clowns everywhere you go. /shudder

I don't dislike a lot of creatures on this game, but... there is one I've hated ever since I started playing.

...Silithids.

I hate them. I despise them. Their hives need to burn to the ground. They all need to die in a fire.

...Yes I am very spiteful toward Silithids. >>; It's due to terrible experiences I had when questing.

Like that movie with the killer space clowns.

I'd rather be hateful and discontent than have killer space clowns!

Wolves.. I hate them because of Wrath, and the MM-wolf required raiding spec

Theres a few that I hate, but lets start with the positive.

Gorillas are awesome(i love them IRL too ) Monkeys are fine but sometimes annoying.

As for the negetive -

Karoma - I dont think that spirit beast should exist, just more people to camp hillight twillands and spam the chat. and Moths, What the hell are these creatures?! huge butterflies? And theyr ugly! so ugly! and useless!!

And about untameables - Murlocs. Always hated them and always will hate them.

There's a phrase that comes to mind: 'venting'. Actually rather helpful to release emotions like that and move on.
Now, if someone can't stop ranting about something, that's a different matter.

I used to have nightmares like that.

*Cower mouth*

Don't touch me, evil happy-people! D:

Untamables: -The new underwater murlocs. They don't make proper murloc noises! When I go to fight a murloc or get ganked by one (or a dozen), I expect them to make the proper murglegurgle noises.

-The worgen "snarl." 'Nuff said.

-Human male models. I headdesked while trying to make my male worgen death knight for TotH.

Tamables: -I hate bears. I hate the goofy way they're designed and I hate the stupid split in their gums and the messed up "snarl."
-Sporebats: I thought they were goofy looking, and after being informed of their...special part...I can't see anything but that when I look at one.
-The worg models...they run like they have a broken leg or something.
-Moths: Dunno why, but I just sort of hate them for being a ferocity pet. What the hell is ferocious about a bug like that?! o_O
-I dislike the gorillas and only ever tamed one when they were the "go to" tank. After thunderstomp became available to all tenacity pets, I dumped that butt scratching fiend.
