It's one of the less well-known ones but I think EQ had that command so some people might figure it out.

Say goodnight, Gracie.

I immediately recognized the guy asking as this mage that made my old guild's blacklist for being so annoying he made Gilbert Godfrey look downright pleasant by comparison.<br/><br/>My response "/gquit teamname" resulting in one more moron being guildless...

Someone asked for a short-cut for somthing (i forgot what) and i replied:

“Alt-F4 FTW!!”

About 16 of the 40 raid members went offline just as we were on a bio thankfully.

OMG I still laugh about it to old pre-tbc raid friends now!!

But when 5-10 guys new to MC would run right up and pan down to look, their health would tick off 1k at a time. There was no window, it was just a lava spot that killed the average lv 60 in 4-5 ticks. (and Rag doesn't sit there anyway, for those that don't know, he spawns as part of an event).<br/><br/>I've seen it done 4-5 times, and it always gets at least a few people.

Her Pally was 66 for this. We grabbed another friend of ours and some random body for the 5th spot, and proceeded to slaughter the instance without stopping for mana. Being in the same room as 2 group members, we decided to play a joke on her- I'd ask her to bubble pull the next group, then hit stealth while my wife feigned death.<br/><br/>Now you'd think that, after having me rocket pull/charge pull every other group in the instance, she'd ask something simple like, "Why?" which of course would have ruined the prank. But nope, she obligingly bubbled and ran up at them. By that time we were stealthed, feigned, and laughing our asses off. Once everybody else died we tossed her a rebirth and profuse apologies.<br/><br/>Are we awful people for abusing her trust? Absolutely. But man, it was hilarious. This prank can be adopted by druids all across Azeroth, since we can just stealth and avoid aggro when your unsuspecting friend runs in to pull a group of mobs.
