Around Azeroth Beta Edition: Ancient Protector requires a hug
I didn't realize that giant trees were so darn needy. Beta tester Ravensmourne of <Spirits of Durotan> on Arygos (US-A) reports that all of the Ancient Protectors in and around Darnassus are stuck in this overly friendly pose, at least for her. Maybe they just have a crush on her?

Looks like my grandpa around Christmas when he drinks a whole bottle of whiskey and pretends he's Santa.

This was my first reported bug when I got into beta. It was kinda creepy going to the new Feathermoon Stronghold and seeing all the trees just standing there. Truth to be told though, it was even more disconcerting that (at that time; been fixed since) at the old Feathermoon (on the island), the Nelfs and the Naga were just standing there waiting for the square dance music to start.

Promenade across the floor,
Sashay right on outa the door.
Out the door and in to the glade,
And everybody promenade.
Step right up, you're doin' fine,
I'll pull your beard, you pull mine.
Yank it again, like you did before,
Break it up with a tug o' war.
Now into the brook and fish for the trout,
Dive right in and splash about.
Trout, trout, pretty little trout,
One more splash and come right out.
Shake like a hound dog, shake again,
Wallow 'round in the ol' pig pen.
Wallow some more, you all know how,
Roll around like an old fat sow.
Allemande left with your left hand,
Follow through with a right-left grand.
Now lead your partner, the dirty ol' thing,
Follow through with an elbow swing.
Grab a fence post, hold it tight,
Womp your partner with all your might.
Hit him in the shin, hit him in the head,
Hit him again, the critter ain't dead.
Wop him low and wop him high,
Stick your finger in his eye.
Pretty little rhythm, pretty little sound,
Bang your heads against the ground.
Promenade all around the room,
Promenade like a bride and groom.
Open up the door and step right in,
Close the door and into a spin.
Whirl, whirl, twist and twirl,
Jump all around like a flyin' squirrel.
Now don't you cuss and don't you swear,
Just come right out and form a square.
Now right hand over and left hand under,
Both join hands and run like thunder.
Over the hill and over the dale,
Duck your head and lift your tail.
Don't you stray and don't you roam,
Turn it around and promenade home.
Corn in the crib pen, wheat in the sack,
Turn your partner, promenade back.
And now you're home.
Bow to your partner
Bow to the gent across the hall.
And 'dat is all.

(For those not versed in the classics, the square dance call posted by Tokkar is from the Bugs Bunny cartoon "Hillbilly Hare.")
