I know this sounds like a strange request, given the number of things paladins can ask for from the omnipotent blizzard staff but...
plain and simple, i want a new mount that paladins could grind for
grind for meaning, going on another long and epic questline in order to attain a mount worth the blood and tears (and significant amount of gold) spent getting it. This may seem like a worthless gripe, but i can say that i spent long hours grinding for the mats to get the arcanite barding and receiving the redeemed soul.
Now that blizzard has made the same exact charger ridiculously easy to get (for good reason i suppose, the original questline IS still available), it does irk me a little to see a level 40 riding around SW in one.
What i want now is the same thing all over again but with a new mount. A new flying mount seems appropriate considering the addition of flying mounts in TBC and how awesome would it be to flying around in an armored pegasus (or something of that nature)?
Well those are my two cents and I'm sure i'll be receiving plenty of
"lol you take this game wai too srsly"
but oh well :p

We still have those epic grindable mounts, Blizz just streamlined it by making it 10000G instead of gold + mats + quests.

I have played two toons. Warlock, and a paladin. That being said, I think it would be appropriate (and fair), that other classes get an exclusive mount before we get "another" one. Seriously.
Patch 3.3.0
New ways of transportation for all classes that previously didn't have a class specific mount!
Rogues will now be seen floating around sitting astride over nothing. Their mounts are stealthed.
Warriors now use their shield as a skateboard, and in the case of a arms/fury warriors they constantly charge thus runs insanely fast (like beta taurens).
Druids can now ride nature herself (a tree).
Mages can instantly teleport to a chosen location anywhere on the map. Portals to come in 3.3.1
Priests now have wings (halo included). Any time they're on the ground, they ominously float on a mysterious light (at an insane speed).
Hunters can now ride their pets.
Shamans are now able to summon "Totem of Blazing Fury" which will summon Thrall whom the shaman then can ride upon.
I cant wait until they start listening to my advice!

I don't think we need a new mount...I just think Blizzard should stop giving mounts away. Turn back the clock to the time where you earned it. Also make it lvl 40 to be able to get a mount again rather than 20. It will never happen but it is a nice thought.

Hey, I'm happy with my Feat, and the Charger's awesome, I was just hoping to trade my unicorn for a pegasus when BC hit. Paladins are supposed to ride horses, why am I on a lion-shaped eagle?
Cause only the dwarves had flying mounts in warcraft (excluding the red flight of course).
Edit: Trolls had bats too

Have you leveled a toon since the change? It's much, much more fun now. And the only thing that making riding cost more will do is penalize people who are rolling their first toon on a realm and don't know anyone. Why would you penalize them for that? What does it take away from your enjoyment of the game?
Ah...poor babies. I had to foot it for 40 levels before I got a mount. Regardless if the world was smaller then, it was harder/longer to level and I had to get twice as many levels. Might as well just make the mount a lvl 5 quest that you get in your starting area. Or why make it a quest. Roll a new toon and you already have a mount.

Sadly, Blizz made mounts attainable earlier to facilitiate the leveling of alt toons and new players. People who are used to cruising around on their epic fliers got sick of walking everywhere and eventually lost interest in the game if their main toon became boring to them. With this barricade out of the way, people are making more and more alt toons (I've got 4 up to 80 already, working on #5, there are tons of players with more than that). I know a guy who has almost filled out his realm list with 80's and has most recently brought a toon from 1-80 in about 2 or 3 weeks. This wouldn't be possible without the use of earlier mounts, relics, and the decreased leveling XP requirements.
But even still, I would like to see a paladin-only flying mount. :-) I do miss the days of us having our very own unique mounts that weren't so trite.
