Hasenohr, likely inspired by the possibility of Azeroth being invaded by the Scourge, recently offered an interesting proposition on Blizzard's official World of Warcraft forums: why not make the Scourge a third faction that players can choose from in World of Warcraft?
The majority of the WoW forum members who responded thought it was a bad idea, pointing out multiple problems with Hasenohr's proposition. Besides messing up the population of the Alliance and the Horde, they pointed that the Scourge member races (undead, undead, undead, etc) are mindless zombies who take orders only from the Lich King. Other forum members defended the idea and even proposed sub-undead races withing the Scourge, as well as other races in the World of Warcraft lore that the Scourge could get along with.
Blizzard blue poster Bornakk emphasized Blizzard's stance on the proposition with the following statement: "The Alliance and Horde factions have given us a
strong base and setup for the game. Instead of altering this we
currently plan to continue building upon this." Looks like World of Warcraft players will have to remain content with the the closest alternative-the Forsaken-for now.
