Note this means these servers will get the hotfixes applied (namely the increased Frost Lotus drop rate). Lucky suckers. :(

that is incorrect, has the server would not need to be reset.
This is to fix a SERIOUS lag issue with the servers, the second I say this, I knew lothar would be on the list, and it was!, dragonblight and Storm peaks has been having HORRIBLE server lag, looting a body could take up to 5 mins only to have it say "you dont have permission to loot this body" its about time =D

That may not be *why* they're being reset, but it will be an effect of it. When the Frost Lotus change was announced, it was said that it would take effect with the next restart.
