Because most of the WoW players never played through WC 1-3, and they feel that everyone in the game should always be alive. Myself, I don't mind if a major lore character dies, as long as it's epic and needed.
Bolvar's death was needed sad as it is, or else the conspiracy within the Forsaken never would have been uncovered till it was too late.
Malygos's death wasn't needed; Blizzard just tossed it in there because they wanted to do the whole "Nexus War" storyline which still doesn't make any sense to me.

Chance to see Rhonin use his mind-blowingly powerful powers to fly a city to Northrend to be honest. However, I think if he was raised as a frostwyrm, and becomes Sindragosa's consort, that would be good.

becouse they have a epic ingame story(like bolvar with onyxia next to his showing her true form, and coming to wintergarde keep to defeat that lich(dont realy remember qoust name) that brought kelthuzads
phylactery
to the lichking in exchange to be turned in to a lich int eh hold days that nax 60+ was)
or saurfang the younger(the fact that saurfang his father is says enough)
or
uther
the lightbringer
with that
shows up when your qousting near his grave
, but if you never have saw this or dont understand i dont think thatyou wont care about whats wil happen to the npc as long you get sweed blues and epics
srry for my bad grammar

I love it when lore characters die. It opens the flood gates for story progression. Military coup-d'etat, epic wars, unexpected conquerors, heir-to-the-thrones, descents into madness... it's all possible when somebody just keels over.

Oh yeah... just imagine if Thrall or Varian would die right now... it would happen, and it would be effing awesome.

Yup, if Thrall or Varian goes down the Lich King wins: Garrosh siezes power, sends all the orc's against the Alliance, the Tauren and Trolls try to stop it, the Forsaken go crazy and the Blood Elves...... well the Blood Elves just keep prancing around like they normally do.
The Council of Nobles regains control, pulls all Stormwind human forces out of Northrend, pulls'em all back to stormwind, leaves the human area's not aliegned with them in the cold, mere meat for the grinder. Dwarves Draenei Night Elves and Gnomes try to fight, are overwhelmed.
Neither side wins, final epic fight between Garrosh and Human Champion and BOOM! Here comes the Scourge enmass, consuming the world.

I'd like to see Velen pull a spaceship out of his butt then.

Well they brought Keal'Thas, Kel Thuzad, Anub'Arak and soon Onyxia back. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Illidan creep up somwhere.

They realized making a major lore character like Anub a 5 man boss was a slap in his face. Also he was already undead and we didn't burn his corpse so........

well, we dwarfs will not give up easily, lets blow the mountain up and kill most part of the horde army hehe:) Remember there was a dark iron dwarf who summoned the lord of fire who blow Blackrock mountain and made the sourrounding area that it is:)
I am sure IF who is built on a lava stream holds other deadly secrets.
Or we can lock ourself in and let the horde try to get into us muhahaha

Uh, Blackrock destruction occured during the War of the Three Hammers, like 500+ years before the first Human vs Orc war.

sry forgot to quote the other bloke up there, and i gave it as a reference. If a Dark iron dwarf king can summon an elemental lord, don't you think the Bronzebeard dwarfs can do something equally nasty, we do keep records and we did live to together before the wars. Also i know it was along time before the orcs and humans war.
Also it was off topic, to the topic why people moan then they kill a char who is lore famous.
first off most of wow players never played warcraft series so they do not know the backstory. I did not play warcraft serie but read some articles on wowwiki about general lore and events bcs i like it.
Secondly people get attached to npc who seems uber and like wtf pwnage. Then you kill him. People get sad and want him back:)
Thirdly if you kill a famous lore char in a kinda lame way. Then people think it is cheesy and just wrong. Do not think many people would enjoy killing LK if he was like bad arse before boss fight and then you come to boss fight it spank and tank and you get some free loot with not dialogue hehe. Or jaina just suddenly dies from a heart attack:)
