I don't think I read it in the patch notes, but we finally get an achievement for hitting exalted with your guild, though it doesn't net any achievement points

That was an announced change, I think Rusttle posted about it first in the Tradeskills forums. I totally understand people not reading one of Rusttle's posts, though.

I was able to ride my standard-issue green wyvern in no-fly instances last night. I hadn't noticed before because most of my toons have a mount macro that uses a ground mount in no-fly zones. My shaman doesn't, though, because I didn't want to waste a macro slot with all my healing, Enhance, and Ele macros.

When your character uses a mailbox or opens the map, there is actually an animation of your toon looking at a map. I think this looks great!

'Course this means everyone will now know how directionally challenged you are when you consult your map every 30 seconds.

I didn't notice that. Cute. I'll have to look for it.

Ah sorry, I must have missed it in the notes, I guess.

You're right. It was featured on the WoW website under the 4.2 changes, but seems it wasn't actually on the list of notes.

My dragonhawk seems to get excited and hold aggro if we fight too many things in a short period. he then runs off and attacks the nearest red or sometimes yellow mob. It doesn't seem to happen after a single kill, only when 3 or more come close together

One thing that may be new - or maybe I just never encountered it before. On a PVP server, I keep getting ganked in a major settlement - Honor Hold in Outland. At least once it was some ultra high level butthead that took me down and then wiped out all the NPC characters in the same location. For some reason, I thought locations like that and Gadgetzan were off limits for such attacks. Certainly he got no XPs or honor points for wiping out players and NPCs twenty levels or more beneath him. I'm still both amazed and somewhat appalled that thee are apparently some players who seemingly have no interest in challenges or self-improvement but seem to wander around looking only to ruin someone else's game.

Yeah, people are ********. I've never understood the fun in making other people miserable, but some people just get off on it I guess. Back when I was on a PvP server, if I was wandering around and saw a low level ally toon, I might kill that person once (and that's a huge might, most of the time I left them alone), but after the one time I'd move on.

I guess I'm too ethical. A couple of times when I was hide hunting in lower areas I ran across much lower level horde types trying to quest and avoid me at the same time. Not only did I leave them alone, I even sent one poor slob a message, like, relax, dude, I'm not hunting YOU!

I'll admit, I did kill a lowbie last week. But he was flagged on a PvP realm (just tried to do the HFP pvp objectives, I guess) and ran his mount through all the mobs around me while I was doing archaeology. And he happened to stop right around where my node probably was. He was asking for it.

Yeah I noticed that in my raid last night. Our boomkin kept attacking dead mobs to "pad the dps meters."
