Finally a game question suited to my real world skill set
So a large city like Orgrimmar (which in game is embarrassingly small to what it’s described as in lore and books) would probably have to use one of three methods to transport sewage because it it built into a series of caverns, with a very large very deep under city built into it, so traditional sewage conveyance wouldn’t work. Anyway the three options are:
1) a sewage grinder pump/effluent pump into a leeching field to treat it
2) some sort of holding tank (or series of holding tanks) that would need to be emptied routinely and then treated via leeching field or incineration.
3) an incinerating sewage system that discharges sewage into some sort of incinerator/lava in place where the fumes wouldn’t pollute the city.
Conversely, cities like Stormwind, Silvermoon, Valdrakken, and Dalaran all likely use traditional sewage conveyance; gravity piping to a large main sewer that takes everything to a sewage treatment area so the water can be reclaimed.
I can 100% see goblins being all about option three. It’s probably some workshop’s pride and joy; methane is volatile and can combust (satisfies the goblin desire for explosions), sanitation is upheld (which satisfies the client city and is very profitable in the long term), and gives goblins something to brag about over how Gnomeregan is still filled with irradiated fumes and volatile chemicals (if I recall correctly), giving them a successful one up over gnomish engineering.

Sewers of Orgrimmar.
Help Gazlowe clear out the mutated fecal goblins left behind by Gallywix's half assed job of setting up a sewage system.
The nation that has engineers capable of building tanks, helicopters, bombers and other such advanced weaponry. That has magic capable to transport materials over vast distances and even has flying airbases.
IIRC they were a legit masons guild and the "unpaid" part of it didn't become apparent until after the work was done. I don't think there's much reason to assume it was a half-assed job.
It's actually part of why they were so pissed. They did a good job and the kingdom spent their agreed upon money on expanding the military through all of Elwynn and Stranglethorn. Like, I know they were being manipulated by Deathwing's kid and everything, but like, come on.
Peon may be able to help evacuate the holding tanks but designing a POWTS (private on-site water treatment system) for a city this large would require goblin level engineering and likely round the clock maintenance and monitoring.
This of course precludes magic being done that simply vanishes the poop.
IIRC lore orgrimmar, beyond being massively bigger, is also kind of like Petra in that they've built into the canyon walls, its not just random copy/pasted huts everywhere
4) They use some/all of the portals in the portal room to chuck it into different continents and planes. They rotate so as not to gain too much attention.
You wouldn’t want to dump sewage into your basement lava pit. All those fumes just come back up.
Ideally you would pump the sewage away from Orgrimmar to an alternate site that’s both away from the city proper and away from any potential contaminant like the sea or a river or high ground water.
I was more saying this could be a good additional reason why the lake is contaminated, the Goblins were the ones who laid the framework for the sewage system and their short sighted work resulted in a massive pollution problem that still needs to be fixed.
Ah the real reason they actually want us to go in there and clear it out. A bunch of idiots have taken over our shit incinerator and Org is starting to smell.
The sewage gets funneled via pipes into a factory. The sewage the main ingredient required to create M+ keystones. The higher the key, the more sewage required. When a keystone depletes, it turns back into sewage.
Keystones cannot exceed 70% sewage for safety reasons. Any more than that and it turns into a PVP arena keystone.
whenever she feels like and in moonwells. If no available moonwell is close by, in the "reagents" bag where it can mix with the level 1 herbs and be disposed at the first available moonwell
My warrior normally just poops like normal, but when he's on campaign and pressed for time he uses his legendary stamina and resilience to just hold in an epic amount of crap until he has a second.
The forsaken might have been blamed for a few Taco Tuesday loads left out in the field.
There's actually an insult from NPC that calls the Horde's houses dung huts basically, from Lady Waycrest in Waycrest Manor if you're Horde.
"Where you come from, is it considered polite to murder your hostesses' servants? On second thought, don't answer that I can tell by your dull expressions that in your corner of the world the concept of a home not made of dung is likely new and exciting"
Although the city was strategically placed next to a flowing river and the vastness of the Great Sea, proper sewage systems remain a lingering issue for the residents of Durotar. The lack of toilets or any waste management leaves everything to bake in the open-air oven. Although efforts were made to burrow through the Ragefire Chasm, a level 16 demon left the majority of the Horde shitting in piles and leaving lowly orc peons to carry any waste to the nearby Sen'Jin Isles.
Well, first of all, how do we know that WoW characters go to the bathroom or bathe? Is there any proof or areas in the game that even have a single toilet?
Out the Valley of spirit , and into the river where that orc was eaten by Crocolisks . I think we find his amulet and bring it his grief stricken mother or partner ?
We use to teleport it all to Undercity. Idk what we did with while UC was destroyed but now that we have it back we can start doing what we did before!
Everyone is thinking like real life wastewater engineers and not like a fantasy wastewater engineer.
The answer is clearly that it goes through a series of pipes down into a special room in the undercity. This room is maintained 24/7 with a portal, directly under the pipes. The sewage travels down, drops directly into the portal, and is magically transported across time and space directly to our garrison in AU Draenor.
Everyone just has a small mage portal in their home that does into a legion planet, so all our waste goes there. It's why they keep attacking us. We are the aggressors.
Technically, waste wouldn’t sink in lava. It would just sit on the surface and burn. Even if it was flowing enough to bury the waste, all those fumes still have to escape the lava. It would smell terrible.
No Ogrimmar doesn’t have a sewage system. But you have to remember Ogrimmar is a newer city compared to other capitals so it doesn’t have as much infrastructure.
