Plague strikes WoW
If you haven't heard, there is a plague spreading through WoW. Even The Register are reporting on it.
Basically it is an infection from fighting Hakkar in Zul'Gurub and spreads from player to player killing all but the high levelers.
What an awesome idea. That said it could be a bug. The media seems to be reporting it as one. But what are the odds it would do that? Only time will tell. And by time I of course mean Blizzard ;). |

Instance limiting
Blizz have now implimented a small server-side patch to fix instance abuse. Basically you can only enter five instances per hour (PvP's don't count), and if you try to enter a 6th within the hour you will be blocked.
It's a running total so if you want to enter a sixth you just have to wait an hour between the first one you entered, ie, the limit is based on the last 60 minutes. |
