I think people need to take a steo back and realize it's a game, even if you're big into roleplaying and are on RP servers. This isn't Fallout, where you can talk your way out of most fights if you don't like fighting; in WoW, you kill it, loot it, and do it again. Personally, I've got no problems with torturing Alliance scum - their fault they're on the wrong side.
But then again, I haven't played WoW in a couple months now, instead playing L4D and other games while I wait for WotLK to mature. Maybe it really is gory and nasty and evil... but I think it's just some weenies are getting a little too into the game.
Honestly... I can't see really using WoW as a storyline-motivated game, like you might with Fallout or Planescape Torment. I like some plot to my quests (I loved the Ghostlands chains back at the start of TBC, even if it did mean I had to be a frooty little elf), but the main draw to WoW, imo, are the friends you play with and the fun that comes from getting that next big piece of gear.
