    Starshards was useless because the dps you got from it was miniscule, and ret paladins were useless in vanilla so draining them was a waste.

    I was speaking from a purely raid PoV though.

    Naturally. But you forget, even useless spells have a s**ts and giggles value.

    I can't argue that point, I was just speaking from the raid perspective.

    I actually preferred NE priests for shadowmeld, but fear ward was so OP that it was a must for pretty much every raid, especially Onyxia and Magmadar.

    I sadfaced when they took away race-specific spells for priests. I know it was the right thing from a balance perspective, but I enjoy flavorful variety between races, classes, and specs.

    I hated that as a rogue...sprint every 5 minutes? Took me forever to get anywhere.

    Lets see:

    Queueing for AV before an MC raid because you knew it would take 4 hours to get into it, that was ok because it lasted 8+ hours.
    Raid dps as a rogue was autoattack then afk.
    "Wait for 5 sunders."
    Debuff limit on bosses and if you went over it, it pushed off the first one (good bye sunders, hello aggro.)
    Fear juggling as a warlock.
    Firestones vs. Spell Stones.
    OOC rezzers and buff bot pallys.
    Devilsaurs with ninja like sneaking skills.
    Swirlyball!!!!
    Ammo pouches/quivers increased attack speed for hunters.
    Innervate was a druid talent.
    Certain specs were only for leveling or pvp (shadow priest, feral druid, arms warrior)
    5 man group quests to kill elite mobs.
    Mallet for ZF and Scepter for Mara got you into groups. Ring for UBRS got you into guilds.

    And my all time favorite:
    If the names Kalahad and Fury hold a special place of respect and envy.

    Never had to beg, if you had 1 pally it was Salv for the dps, Wisdom for the healers, Light for the tank. Unless you had one that went deep enough into prot, then the tank got Kings.

    I still have my Mara scepter, my ZF mallet, my UBRS ring and my Onyxia neck (although was the neck actually the key or did you just get the neck for completing the attunement?) on my rogue. I was going to keep all my old school keys too, but I either vendored those when they changed the keyring or the keys just disappeared entirely.

    This a thousand times over. I remember the feeling of satisfaction whenever I got my epic ground mount after a week or so of farming like a madman. Even had to borrow the last 10g because I was just exhausted.. and then POW.. OMFGIMSOFASTWHATISTHISNONSENSEWHEREHASITBEENALLMYLIFE?!

    How to know if someone played vanilla!
    You can talk about anything in vanilla that the newer players from TBC -> MoP can't know about.
    "You played vanilla if..." finish this sentence.

    I'll do a few examples:

    You played vanilla if you killed Kazzak in Blasted Lands.
    You played vanilla if you farmed Tyr's hand in EPL.
    You played vanilla if you know what benediction is as a Priest.
    ... if you can name all priest racials.
    ... if you know about 21/8/22 as a Rogue.
    ... if you know this inn music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SImDN0CDXPA (Human inns only).
    ... when warlocks had to farm soulshards before raiding or doing anything really, poor guys. And when a soulshard took a bagslot.
    ... when hunters needed ammo for their ranged weapons, and the ammo stacked per 200 and took bagslots. And there was different types of ammo's, very strong ammo could be made by engineers.
    ... when guards gave honor.
    ... when you got knocked down by the [The Unstoppable Force]
    ... when Ironforge was the main city where everyone on Alliance hanged out because it was the only city with a Auction House.
    ... when Innerfire (Priest selfbuff) gave attack power.
    ... If you knew who Broken Tooth was as a hunter.

    Point of this thread? To remember certain things about vanilla WoW that you forgot now that someone else mentions it!
    I didn't play vanilla and I know or did half of those...

    If you did all the quests to get the hammer to bang the gong in ZF for the extra boss...and probably still have it in your bank cuz it was a pain in the ass to get.
