Creatures you've grown to hate?

For me it's the "highland worg" in Twilight Highlands. There are billions littering the spawn points of Karoma and even though my addons should pick her up if I'm anywhere close, I still feel the compulsion to check every single red dot on my mini map before continuing on.

Deathy. Hate. Deathy.

*stabs the murloc to death times infinity*

Why? I can't get Deathy. Everyone else I know has him- even someone who commented they didn't like him originally, has him. Hate. DEATHY.

But for others? Anything with an insanely fast respawn timer- and that red Gyreworm that circles round where the shalespiders all spawn at. And Madexx.

I hate Madexx now.

I dont think they meant mini pets, Ryai. ^^;

As for hate? Hmmm.......the only one I hate is that black leopard cat with white spots. Ugliest thing EVER.

Most felines in WoW, foxes (obviously) and imps. Can't stand imps.

Foxes. I still hate (and, until we get deserving families like hydras and basilisks made tameable, probably always will) foxes.

I have never liked Foxes or Cats too much. The sabertooth cats and maned cats I dont mind, but the panther and leopard ones I... I dont know, they're just too common and too many people used them back when wow was wow (before BC) I just havent liked them since.

I do not like the white worm, it just reminds me of an intestinal parasite. Yuck. Hyenas are a close second. I want to like them, I've tried them a few times before, but the uni-boob is just too much for me to ignore.

Oh, and bears. Can't stand bears. That darned gap between their lips bothers me, their poor detail bothers me, I have just never been able to keep a bear for more than about a day.

Gondria.
I hate Gondria. I can't stand to see that half-efforted skin on a spirit beast. Karoma I can forgive because even Karoma doesn't have the sub-par transparency they gave Gondria. Every time I see Gondria, I cringe.

Monkeys by far. They look dumb and are really annoying when they attack. I have to admit, I didnt like foxes at first but they have been growing on me. Arcturis is another one I don't like. I hate the uneven transparency (butt more transparent than face) and the teeth.

I strongly dislike how bears look. They don't even resemble real bears. They look like some horrific, mutant, rabid hamster. I've called them ROUSes (Rodents Of Unusual Size) since I first saw them in Vanilla. Ugh, their giant gums and unnaturally pulled back lips... and their strange, sloping posture. At least they've closed their mouths now, but it didn't help their looks much.

And it's a shame, because I love the idea of a bear hunter pet. That dwarf hunter with the big ol' grizzly bear in the original cinematic was pretty awesome.

Gorillas. I always disliked them, but then when I started to get into hunter tanking, gorillas were the *only* way to go. I even had to have one, and it sucked. And now if I want an interrupt with *any* good timing and intelligence, guess what? Yeah. Exactly. .... so yeah. Don't like 'em. :/

I've always hated bears. Started in original closed beta when I got to Darkshore/Ashenvale. You couldn't take two steps without aggroing a bear. I HATE BEARS IN WOW!

Monkeys and gorillas.
Not only do I hate them IRL,
but in-game they are just annoying.
I hate the sounds the gorilla makes and they're just...ugly.
Blah.

I also hate spiders, but I've come to really like Charlotte, my PvP spider. heehee [:<

I assume by creatures, you mean any creature...

my choice is moonkin model. i DESPISE this model. owlbears in fantasy i can tolerate... blizzard moonkins i hate.

i remember my very very first toon... night elf hunter. i enjoyed teldrassil so much and finally got out to darkshore, wow!

then i saw the moonkin. my rage bar has been full ever since.

if i have to say pets i dont like... most silithids i dont care for. sporebats are underwhelming. and ive never been a huge fan of the worg model for wolves. outland raptors never tripped my fancy. honestly old world raptors barely do. to many feathers, bulging eyes... i would really like for a raptor to get the sambas treatment.

oh and i hate the riding raptor horn on their noses. gah!

This is actually an amazing feat given hunters don't have rage bars :O

Edit: also I know Deathy is a vanity pet, but Deathy is the focus of all my hatred for murloc children because Blizzard continually denies me the chance to ever obtain one. So all my hatred for normal murlocs, for murloc related quests, for the gankings murlocs gave me, for the murglegurglrrgle cries as they pillaged and burned my corpse while blizzard taunted me with quests showing I would never have a murloc baby or hosting events that I could not partake in for being in the US and not the EU even tho I play an EU account...

it all falls onto Deathy.

Gorillas and Monkeys are the ONLY pet species that I completely dislike and will never tame. They're just completely...ugh. I hate the idea of a primate or humanoid for a pet.

All spirit beasts apart from the crab. Just can't stand them. Loque'nahak looks like he has not eaten in weeks and could drop dead any minute, Arcturis looks like something a ghost would vomit up, Skoll looks like a wolf stuck his tail in a wall socket and Gondria looks like a blackcurrent flavoured ghost.

I'm with you on this one; I don't HATE them but can't stand gorillas as pets. They just remind me of a fat old man :( I understand that some people love 'em though!

As far as non-tameables... MURLOCS. There was another that came to mind, and it challenges murlocs, but murlocs are right up there on my hate list. It isn't as bad now I think, but back in the day, levelling through those grind-quests, and getting your carefully pulled-back target to go rush out to nine other murlocs... /shudder.
