    I play on Proudmoore which is a normal server so not a hell of a lot of world PvP action generally. Saying that, I have done a bit in Hellfire in BC, Wintergrasp in LK and now Tol Barad.

    I have to say the stupidest was a couple of weeks ago doing the quest mob in the keep in Tol Barad. I hate how people generally don't wait the turns in which they come for these quest mobs so I will quite often drop an Army of the Dead to quickly tag the mob when its my turn. This was my last quest for the day so I dropped all 4 in this case.

    So I am standing in the room waiting for the mob to spawn, my priest, 4 DKs and 40 ghouls. This tauren turns up solo, unflagged. Now I don't even know if he attacked one of my toons or just flagged but he literally went red one second then died as the ghouls mobbed him. Funniest thing I've ever seen. I didn't even have time to cast anything or attack in anyway before the ghouls killed the poor bugger.

    If you are same faction you can tag the mob with the person and it counts for both people. Includes lootable items like the Archmage Staff, so it's not really a case of waiting...Unless it's another faction of course and then it's mob/node steal at all costs to keep the feud alive. I particularly enjoy training a group of mobs onto a guy dropping an AoE trying to get at a mining/herb node. But then again, I dislike the hordes....

    But Tol Barad makes for some hilarious fights.
    A buddy of mine got ganked by 5 hordies a combination of 3 pallies a rogue and a feral druid in Tol Barad while doing dailies, since another friend and I were in the area we showed up. So 2 boomkins and 1 arms warrior ...We proceeded to kill all 5 repeatedly they even had a hunter from their guild show up to help...

    After getting roflstomped for about 7 or 8 kills (Non pvp so why they didn't just hang out at the GY and stop rushing in at us...) each the better geared prot pally decides to log on an ally and proceed with tell taunts of how we won't 1v1 him and why we root and run instead of standing there to let him melee us... This from the guy who figured that 6v3 was completely fair or the fact that apparently a bum rush of bodies means people will eventually die? *Boggle* Bad players are bad...

    That's when you know that they are angry and embarrassed. A lot of players who get smacked around in PVP understand that is how it goes sometimes, so they take their lumps and have fun with it. The players that log on an alt to talk smack are the ones that forgot that it's a game and won't be able to sleep that night. Those are always the most satisfying ones.

    QFT. The best of these are in cross realm BGs when you get people from other realms making lvl 1s to do it.

    Drizhal the mobs I'm referring to are on the neutral Tol Barad island. No actual loot from them and last week when I did the quest only one group or person could tag them still. I think the change to the mini dungeon bosses in TB being lootable by all was a very reasonable one by Blizz for a change :P
