No, you should leave them be.

But if you do delete them they are just recreated when you start the game anyway.

Seer is right.... they get re-created as soon as you log in. What I did is hide them all. They're there, you just can't see em lol.

Highlight them all, right click, Properties, [General Tab] Attributes, Hidden. Of course, this only works if you have "Do not show hidden files and folders" ticked under Tools, Folder Options, View.

And it only works in Windoze. I suppose there's a way to hide folders in MacOS X, but I've never bothered to look.

Mac files have a hidden flag too. You just can't set it with the default OS. You have to download a 3rd party program to set it. The user controlled way to make a file hidden is starting the filename with a dot, but that will not work for WoW. It would see the original files missing and recreate them without the dot.
