Some things you didn't know about WoW...

I remember
-There was a period in TBC when orcs had bugged shoulder size(2x smaller), and worst of all, it took Blizzard 2-3 months to fix it.

and

-And the best one! instance servers being full, and 40 people jumping through the window of MC to zone in, inevitably falling into the lava, getting "Instance servers are full, try again later" message

was pretty awesome XD

You forgot to mention there was a difference back then between "Class runs" and "Quest Runs". 8-man Scholo/Stratholme, one of each class, so that the T0 item pieces were obtained. It was only in a later patch where they restricted the number of players in Scholo and Strat to 5, and removed/nerfed/both trash mobs and bosses to make them into 5man content.

Also, UBRS was a "Double class run", ie, 2 of each class + 1 class which was alone.

There is an option "Click to move". If you enable this, you can click on the ground, and your character will move to that location. That feature is so useless that nobody uses it

surprisingly enough i use it all the time, and i know plenty of people who also do, especially when flying on a mount somewhere.

and the shaman totem quests.(they had to be in your bag)

as ppl that have shamans know they made it now so that the shaman relic (totem) counts for all 4 totems, fire earth air water, thank god... so you dont have to store the 4 totems in your bag

but did you know you still cant sell, trade or throw away the 4 totems? so now they just take up 4 bank slots

As opposed to what people think, not epic nor legendary items are the highest ranked items in WoW, all though the highest ones still have never dropped there is a level above legendary and its called artifact. It ties in well in the lore and some GMs have had the luck to wield items like the martin thunder weapon for example. Martin Thunder has stats that are nowadays kinda obsolete but at the bottom of the tooltip is this : Use: Kills all enemies in a 30 yard radius... would be somewhat nice to have this item was removed in 3.3 but there are some others out there like alex's ring of audacity for example with Equip: Defense +1000. Consider yourself born again hardcore!

I remember reading somewhere that Martin Thunder now kills you instead of killing all enemies in a 30yard radius... Makes it kinda useless :b

There was a bug that warlock enters BWL , summons Void , sends him to Razorgore the Untamed gets a debuff and runs out . When he summon Void it has a debuff and dmges all around killing low lvl in citys (goldspammers)

two in one here really
Aimed shot used to have a cast time (not too old I guess)
There was a time where night elf hunters could cast Aimed shot while shadowmelded. It was pretty OP in BGs.

[Makamoka]

By the way, afaik, the guy mentioned in the OP who got banned for ulduar exploiting with a GM item; the item was Martin Fury, a plate chest item that increases strength and mana (i think) and had the same effect as Martin Thunder.[/QUOTE]

It wasnt plate :b Every class could/can/where able to use it :P

Nice list, very intresting read =). To add, I remember that beards used to be shown outside of helmets, which looked kinda weird sometimes. (T5 pala head on a dwarf any1?)

[raptor6969]

Gnomish death ray could 1 shot almost anything if u where lucky, i think 1 m8 from my guild did 75k damage in nefarian with the gnomish death ray at lvl 60.

[LaZer713]

I like it this post thanks for the info :-)

[Jaliee]

"-Warlocks could kill people in duels. (and I really mean "kill")"

I killed a player in duel as a mage in TBC, shot arcane missiles and probably had one in the air when the one before hit... back then my mage was lvl 20 or smth...

[raptor6969]

Oh, also as a hunter, i kitted with a druid the blasted lands world boss dragon, it killed all in its path, goldshire, lots of sw guards. we wanted to take him to the king and see if bolver could beat him.
we didnt make it cos the dragon killed the druid near dwarf district.

"-Balance druids were utterly useless at vanilla release. Than they added Moonkin form halfway through vanilla, but they still sucked."

-Says otherwise, muhahaha!

[Omgwtfbbq]

You used to gain weapong skills faster the more int you had. So for example warriors or rogues would gather full cloth intelect gear just to get weapon skill up faster.

[Turin]

Hehe, now I started using *click to move*. Curse you !
No, it's just a lazy extra way to move and I love lazy <3

[Riboe]

Very interesting. Thank you
