I can honestly say that I did not know a LOT of that information. Great post!
Oh god, please don't bring this back up. You most likely didn't read all 50 pages, but there have been a few pages worth of discussion about whether or not they're actually saying something. Just let it die.
I know you said that you haven't read the thread, but this has been brought up numerous times.
Yep. It's in the terms of service
AKA, no you can't do it. Even through blizzard. The only exceptions may be a minor becoming and adult, and I've heard EQ used to let people do it during divorce (which made no sense, since married people weren't supposed to share accounts either) but i don't know if blizzard did that too.Blizzard does not recognize the transfer of WoW Accounts or Blizzard Accounts (each an "Account"). You may not purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, or offer to purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, and any such attempt shall be null and void.
I really miss old AV. They should bring it back and run it side by side with new AV and just give people the choice.
I added some more at the bottom, though I'm quite low on ideas right now, so keep posting things that aren't in the main post!
Keep in mind that when wow was released, losing exp on death and some kind of unavoidable ressurection sickness was standard in MMOs. Only losing exp when being rezzed by spirit healer would have been considered extremely lax. (
And since people maybe don't realize this about wow, when it was released, it was considered the ezmode/kiddy MMO by the existing MMO community (the no death penalty thing was often cited as evidence). By contrast, that vanilla wow that was considered so ezmode is now considered "hardcore" by modern wow player standards.
More about the old school perspective: paladins being primarily buffers, and other classes having roles outside of the tank healer damage trinity is actually not weird even by today's standards. Actually, not having support classes at all is weirder.

In Halls of Lightning, on the hallways to the first boss, if you look over the hallways, you can see lines of Iron Vrykul lined up below. Hard to imagine that I ran that place that many times not to notice it until now.
Enstraynomic - League of Legends
TheEnst - Starcraft II
I remember i logged my Warrior when the TBC talents came out to check them out, and then I actually had the spell "seduce" in my spellbook.
I had no mana so i couldn't use it
It should be noted that this was not implemented until numerous people found out that a Fel Reaver could be kited into Shattrath to fight A'dal.-A'dal in Shattrath hits for over 100,000 damage and becomes invulnerable at low health.
Loved this!! I'd forgotten about a lot of this stuff. Was great to read it and reminisce. I didn't see Dishonorable Kills mentioned though. Those were great times. World PvP at its finest.
Edit:
"-If you are playing on US servers, you can roll a human on server Moonguard, and walk to Goldshire Inn. Warning: What is seen cannot be unseen."
I should have heeded the warning...

Should I ask about Goldshire on Moonguard server?
I've been reading and keeping up with this thread for a while, so just to nip the Conspiracy Theorists in the butt. The Spirit Healer loop actually says, "It is not yet your time. I shall aid your journey back to the realm of the living... for a price." Not to mention, holy priests turn into the spirit healer form and the tooltip reads "You have become more powerful than anyone can possibly imagine. " If a spirit healer is that powerful, she need not have to talk to you about your money just to get it.
I still remember when we were doing BWL there were rumours that some guild was making a working threat meter, which at the time was considered kind of impossible, because how could anybody really know how much threat you had in comparison to another player. In the end I think there was some addon floating around, but in reality it didn't really work and the estimates given by it were really rough and not even close to 100% reliable. The consensus seemed to be that if there was a working threat meter that would make the job of dps way too easy, because the hard part of their job was doing as much damage as possible while not overaggroing. Therefore knowing how much threat you had compared to the tank would make it completely easymode so really it would be like cheating. Boy, have things changed.
