    You played vanilla if you know what Dishonor Points are and why they were hated so much!

    *Hint* This killed early Open World PvP.

    Working as intended. It wasn't a bug at all.

    Since you had to enter Blackrock Mountain to get to MC, all the end-game instances were 40 man in the beginning, although they were technically designed for 10-15.

    Had forgot about the old raid entrances. BWL had it's entrance in UBRS didn't it?

    Either way, sounds like an overall, not so well-thought-through, solution they quickly went away from . Quicker than the majority noticed.

    Yeah the BWL entrance was inside UBRS. They fixed that pretty quickly, and you're right most never knew the difference.

    The entrance for MC was in BRD before you could window jump. BWL was in UBRS before the orb.

    I haven't read all pages but I think no one mentioned it.

    When you had to grind books to learn your high level spells.

    You never hit cap because you sucked ass when you started and you never got a mount until after BC came out.

    when the shaman's class colour was pink
    when enchanters used to advertise the glow effects of their enchants because people liked red or blue glowing weapons.
    when Dwarves were considered the best priest race by a mile.
    when each class got their own personal revamp patch and when the shaman one got delayed because of severe problems with mages they busshocked.
    When the world event Peon day still existed. (it was september 30)

    You only remember that if you were horde.

    Dwarves were the priest race of choice by a mile.

    I disagree. Starshards may have been a useless spell, but it was cool nonetheless.

    And Feedback had its uses. Draining ret paladins of mana, for one.
