I am just about to relinquish control of our gamer group. We are currently playing Rise of the runelords with Pathfinder, but one of the players wants a go at DMing. He wants to run a Greyhawk campaign with %th edition.
My problem, try as I might I can't find anything I like about Greyhawk. From the boring cultures to the unpronounceable gods (Fharlanghn, the Greyhawk god of dyslexia and bad scrabble hands). Please help.

Tell me what you don't like about Greyhawk, besides some of the names? You mention that the cultures are boring, which cultures are you referring to and how are they boring? I don't as this as a challenge to your opinion but with open mindedness so I can understand from what direction your coming from. Makes for a better conversation.
What do you know about the different races and kingdoms?
What sorts of cultures and kingdoms do you wish Greyhawk had which would interest you? Perhaps we can find common ground in the discussion.
I've used Greyhawk off an on for 35 years and might be able to help you with its better points, at least as far as creating a character and immersing yourself into the background of the campaign.
