They're just pulling your leg, of course. It's an interesting zone with great potential and some wonderful boss fights. Better yet, most of them seem to work right out of the box. I think Naxx will keep us entertained at least long enough for Thrall to sell my ancestors' honor and pride out to those stupid-ass "cute" blood elves, for the proverbial "gold and population boost" he seems to think it might bring our once-mighty faction. I say what good is a population boost when they're all a bunch of bouncing, idiotic elves? We don't need cannon fodder, we have legions of Undead Rogues. Have you ever been to Ironforge? The infestation of that place alone is enough to convince me that Elves belong on the end of swords and spears. (Metal ones.)
Ah, but your question was on Naxxawhatsits...
The first night we took a mixed raid as we usually do to test new encounters. I pulled agro on something and died, so they booted me from the raid immediately and replaced me with a mage. Upon seeing the damage meters at the end of our first night, we went back the next evening after replacing all our standard DPS with mages and oneshotted the entire zone with relative ease. Wodin was heard to say "Luckily, I already have an alt-mage..." while many others were simply left to mourn the passing of their general usefulness and resign themselves to farming up cash and reagents for our new "infinite mana speedkill crew".
EJ warlocks are to retain at least one spot per raid, for the moment, and will be placed on an "imp rotation" until tanks are geared enough that we can leave the warlock out for another mage. As a non-demonology warlock, I've been informed that my presence is no longer necessary and have taken to playing oldschool console games and Nethack in my newly found sparetime. I might finally have the free time to finally beat Chrono Cross, so I view this as a good change.
Cheers, and have fun in Naxx.

[EDIT: Thrall worried that people would view my above statements and think that I am somewhat racist toward our future Elven brothers. I'd like to take this moment to assure the public that this is not the case. I hate Alliance Elves. Not Blood Elves. *ahem* Yes. At the request of our proud warchief and in the interest of "continued good relations" with our soon to be Elven allies, I have been asked to pen something nice about our new friends. Out of respect to the warchief and our new friends, I shall take this opportunity to do so. Let's see...
For starters, they can't dance for crap. Their women have nothing on an orc gal's arse and are horrible in bed. Ah dammit, nice. Hang on.
"At least they're not gnomes."
(There. Now get off my back, you lousy sellout, or I'll send Goon Squad after you again.)]
