Around Azeroth: Fools rush in
Instance servers down? No problem. The solution to any dilemma is to apply enough force to the weakest point and see what breaks. The intrepid adventurers of the Argent Dawn server didn't let server instability and lag keep them from charging headfirst into the entrance to the Forge of Souls. I wonder if those swirly portals hurt when you bang your head into them? (Thanks to submitter Frodrick of <The Ashwood Chronicles> on Argent Dawn.)

Nothing's funnier than watching 40 people running in place while the gate just keeps going up and down and up and down.

It's even funnier if you tell them it works if they go through the portal backwards.

The Door boss dealt my Resto Shaman a Crushing blow...

Honestly on Argent Dawn, we have seen far worse patch nights. Being able to get through the heroic 5 man quest arc was better than I had expected. On a server like ours we simply cancel any raids if there was a major patch, because it is just not worth the head pounding frustration to try raid as the server slowly dies around you.

To add a bit of background to the pic, this was after my 5 man group had wiped trying to work our heads around the spirit waves in the last instance - I got the names mixed up when I submitted

LOL, when I first glanced at the picture, I swore I saw a giant Murloc!

Here, here Belghast. I've had many a raid cancelled on good ol' AD on patch nights. Old server + patches = server instability! WOO!
Of course we were getting lag spikes in Questionable Intent's raid last night, but it wasn't terribly bad!

This could have been taken on Stormrage-US, as well. It was crazy, and made me very glad this game doesn't have object collision with other players. Someone would have been trampled to death!
