But what about lalas then

I think that Lalafell, Au Ra (more like Augly Ra amirite?) and Miqote should be removed from the game.

Honestly I think that this might be easier for SE to implement than Viera. They have the base data in the game already. All that would be left would be the gear and customization options. I vote for Lupin!

There's a very large and wide difference between "working alongside" and not being seen as alien in nature, and that is expressed a ton of times during the story. I never once mentioned hostility in my posts, so your argument is moot.

the masses seem to be clamoring for a beast race at this point.

You're mistaking the same few people posting on this kind of thread over and over with some kind of mass. This is a common mistake, but still a mistake.

To say it wouldn't be popular, is more of a personal opinion than a fact.

All instances of the census show extremely clearly than the less human a race looks, the less popular it is, as roegadyn aptly demonstrate below with their whopping 4%/6%/4%. The same kind of surveys on other games (like WoW for instance) show similar results. Other options that mix the iconic factor with the sexy/cute/handsome factor are obviously where the money is for SE. If they even care to implement a new race at all at this point, that is, which definitely is not a given. And by "this point" I mean two years down the line, when the game will be even more mature and requiring more "aids" to retain subscriptions and create new ones.

Sorry (not sorry) to rain on your parade, but this is a discussion forum. The "general discussion" at the top of the page should be enough of a hint for you to understand that it's made for discussion. If you want to express your wishes without anyone discussing them (and that includes negative discussion), a blog or a tumblr with locked comments are what you're looking for.

Yet the last races added to WoW were werewolf, goblin and a big panda. You know why? Because they realized that the "pretty/human" base was already over-served. As a game dev myself, I would consider it a waste of resources to invest more in an already over-served segment of the player base. Attracting players that have not been catered to would be a way more wise investment of my time and resources. However, it also has to be a skeleton that can easily get gear migration from other races and wear helmets with little or no modification.

I would say that knife cuts both ways. Few people posting against it over and over on this kind of thread are not a real opposition either.

Personally, the current races need more options. I rather they focus the resources on giving us more options and then think about adding a new race.

Same thing can be said about the Viera thread. When people try to Discuss about why they don't want it they are wrong in doing so.
So why is it OK to want something but not OK to want something else? That's all I'm trying to say.
Let people want what they want.
