Fix the damn chairs!

I visited the new Dalaran for the first time tonight, and a suspicion I had was confirmed: Many of the chairs do not work. This has been something that's been a consistent issue since Cataclysm. The chair models get placed into the world, but you cannot interact with them. And if you can interact with them, oftentimes the chair makes you face the wrong way. The biggest offender of broken chairs so far have been Warlords of Draenor. All three levels of the Horde tavern garrison building are packed with chairs, but not a single one works.

In Dalaran so far, none of the chairs in the Underbelly work, and while you can interact with all of the stools in The Filthy Animal, which is the Horde's inn for Dalaran, you'll see that they all make you face random directions that face AWAY from the tables and counters. It's almost like whoever was in charge of placing props in this area went out of their way to make sure none of the seats in this inn faced the proper way. You can visit and see for yourself.

I've spent a good number of years playing on RP-PvP servers, so I really enjoy visiting the various taverns and inns that the world has to offer, but I also like being able to sit down and chill out with my friends, or even visiting these areas to go AFK for a bit.

I know it's beta, but this has been a recurring oversight for the past few expansions, so I believe if this isn't brought to attention, it will continue to be ignored.

Funny enough we were just talking about this today. In a future update to the Beta this will be resolved as it is currently not as intended.
