    More a creative use of mechanics, but it still got nerfed/broken.

    During vanilla, a guild having issues with Panther boss in ZG, came up with a unique way of dealing with them. http://www.wowhead.com/item=7375

    The original version of that item could effect the panthers that spawn during said fight. Word spread about that strategy and soon after, Blizzard nerfed the item's effectiveness.

    I hate it when Blizz does that.

    Probably the recent bug where you could open bags from Heroic Scenarios, Pet Battle Dailies, and the Sunreaver dailies, take an item out, sell them to a vendor, and them buy them again to get infinite Battle Stones/Keys to the Palace of Lei-Shen/516 Epics.

    Either that or the bug during 4.2-4.3 where people could use instance portals and trading to De-sync themselves from the servers. This allowed someone to open any sort of container or combine an item infinite times. This is why there were/are tons of Shadowmourne items, why Epic Gems were dirt cheap in 4.3, and why Ontx Panthers are so cheap today.

    We had a group of 5 do this and got both achievements pretty quickly. Sadly we broke Uldum for our server for a few hours so no one could go in or out.

    What I can recall is that back in early 4.3, there was a seal bug in palas which caused their dps to be 100k or etc. Also during MoP locks were so much broken that they could crit for 100m or so and nearly 1 shot bosses and a guy made a video which blizzard noticed and fixed.

    My favorites:

    • Engineering Shadow Reflectors on Old Doom Lord Kazzak

    • Hacking through the ground to the Kara crypts

    • The MgT Vexallus bug where a warlock could get max stacks on his demon, dismiss and bring him back out in a 5s arena match and 1 -shot the whole team

    • Most recently: the goblin glider + nitro boosts in WSG for a 15sec flag cap. Also druid travel form + speed boosts

    Creative use of the game shouldn't be banned, especially when it was reported in the PTR, commentated by a Blue as "The Bombs broke pieces of the throne off and the Frost storm does the rest? Clever." Plus Blizzard allowed it still to go live. Thus Imho Ensidia will always have World First regardless of what Paragon or others claim, as they were doing it also.

    My favorite was the Seal of Command Bug in Vanilla.

    Maybe Yogg'Saron world first healing-evade aggro inn the brain, LK saronite bombs, or skipping to Cthun, hacking files so you fall below 1st boss platform.

    one of the more fun ones though, and we still joke about it, THE ICE STONE HAS MELTED! Many puns have been created since then..
    God the Additional instances cannot be launched had to be the most annoying to me. It would take forever of stepping through in and out to get in to the instances. However I am pretty sad that the ice stone no longer melts D:

    I know for sure there has been a thread on this but anyways....I remember in Lich that a GM mailed some weapon to person and he used it in Ulduar (this was at start of patch/Ulduar) and of course the weapon could basically one shot everything in the instance. So this person (possibly GM of guild) received a whole bunch of achievements and loot of course. They funny or sad part was people who defended this person by saying it was Game Master's fault.

    Didn't play Vanilla but the corrupted blood from Hakkar would definitely be one of the best and at that time most frustrating bug's in WoW.

    Kazzack bombing was always one of my favorites. Especially since back then, SW only had one AH > 1 shotting a dozen lowbie is always great
