** Due to guild advancement/achievements now giving guild perks, it will be considerably easier to do this. The more achievements and guild XP for things like old world raids, the better perks you get, like instantly teleporting the entire raid to your position.

*** The Halls of Reflection was this for some people. (note: for some) It required perfect cooperation with the group to survive the waves. Wiping on a wave before the two bosses (before 5th and 10th) required you to start over from the first and sixth waves, respectively. It was also common for random players to drop group [[Beyond the Impossible|as soon as Halls of Reflection showed up as the random heroic]].

* [[Fandom Nod]]: Besides the countless [[Ascended Meme]]s, the massive fan game/forum post [http://www.thelittlestmurloc.com/ "You awaken in razor hill] became so well-known that blizzard actually added the main character [http://www.wowhead.com/npc=40970 Tednuget] ([[Bowdlerize|Changed to Tednug for copyright reasons]]) got his own NPC.

* [[Fan Dumb]]: The official forums aka the "Bitch Board" is pretty much full of nostalgia-blinded people and highbrow elitists who trash about how there are people who didn't have to do what ''they'' did back in the original game. No matter ''how'' bad of a financial decision it was to not let gamers see higher-level content. (Granted; it wasn't ''all'' Blizzard and Vivendi's fault there, some people were left out because of player created catch-22 situations and they didn't expect people to abandon low-pop servers and get people stuck waiting for a group that almost never forms.)

** And that's only the general forums. Each sub-forum seems to have its own Fan Dumb that does nothing but whine and complain about whatever the subject of the board is. For example, the class forums are often less filled with constructive advice on how to improve the class so much as they become slagging matches between users about how the class developers favor some classes over others. The story forums are more or less the same, just replace 'classes' with 'factions' and 'class developers' with 'creative developers'.
