Also, the best part of vanilla was that everything was new, everything was an adventure, before it became a grind. Atleast for me. I didn't get into raiding/pvp'ing enough to burn out before BC came out.
Go kill spiders and get 20 webs for a net? SURE THING!

My roommate (Ogapo) and I used to go exploring with a set goal. We wanted to be killed by things we had never been killed by before.
That island with high level elite mobs south of Feathermoon? Yeah, we were stoked when we found that and died brutally. Arcaz Island? Hell yeah.
You used to be able to do things like that, only because the game was so much bigger than the content in it. They left a lot of generally unused space (some of which they only are getting to now, like Uldum).
Can't do that so much anymore... however, I did get the opportunity to die to something new recently, when I aggrod The Cleaner while Akina was doing her Benediction quest.

Akina: bitch I will stab you in the face
