I DO CRESSY. IT WAS FUN FROM MY STANDPOINT.
Ahem. I decided to break the server one day, along with Qaza and Nostra's guild of bad guys. So I put the spawn button for random zombie mods on my hot keys tab thingy... put Q on autofollow, and probably pressed that button every .5 seconds. Needless to say I made unwittingly a trail of high level zombies that was about 10 deep that noone could penetrate, then we tried to force people to RP on the forums "taking Stormwind back".
It mostly pissed people off and drew ire from everyone involved. CoTH was muy different back then though. We did crap like that spur of the moment without thinking about consequences.
COINCIDENTLY, that was around the first uh, restart. *Cough* I'm so sorry.
Buuut this was justified in my mind at the time mostly due to the "Fall of Duskwood/Redridge", and the demon sieges there, along with the fact I was being a stubborn goat that tried to encourage RP by trying to enforce things in odd ways. I regret some of my actions, not all of them, but for the same token I think it fostered some necessary changes.
I just have two words.

Aww, Hawk. -Those- were the good ol' days...

Ironically that was the same time as the hard ol' days.

How do fish breathe?
"The process begins by water in the fish’s surrounding entering its mouth‘s. Water enters the mouth by a very effective pumping system that involves the mouth and the outer flexible bony flap that cover the gills called the operculum. This is achieved by the opening and closing of the fish's mouth as it pumps water through the gills. When the fish’s mouth is open, the operculum closes and water is drawn into the fish’s mouth. Conversely, when the fish closes its mouth, the operculum opens and fresh water is then allowed to flow across the gills.
After water enters the fish's mouth it passes through a structure called the gill rakers. The function of the gill rakers is to act as a filter system by sieving out particles such as food or any other foreign particles that may have entered the mouth from the inflow of water. The filtered water then travel through the gill arches thus passing over the gills.
Here each gill consists of two rows of extremely thin membranes called gill filaments. The structure of the gill filaments consist of sequence rows of a thin, disc-like membrane loaded with a capillary network called lamellae. Gill filaments which are projected out into the water flow allows water to flow across the lamellae. This will result in gas exchange where, oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged directly across the capillary membrane.
As water flows through the gills, the oxygen it contains (dissolved oxygen) passes into blood circulating through the gill structures (filaments and lamellae) while simultaneously, carbon dioxide ( the waste product) in the fish’s bloodstream passes into the water. This deoxygenated water is then carried away and out of the body through the operculum. This process repeats itself continually and this is the process by which fish breathe. This is process is also known as respiration."
Sorry for the long post, had to clear things up. :Anti joke chicken:
I haven't been around nearly as long as some people on here, but I still remember the server being very different when I joined. One thing that springs to mind was the Ratchet Arena.

Yes...that's all I must say, for fear that to much may be said.
...Alright, I'll explain the joke, which is very likely horribly stupid to the rest of you.
It was too gosh darn late, and I was falling asleep at the keyboard. But, this was like, my first RP with Rensin. The Rensin, one of the oldest people on the server. Oh, my god what do I say, what do I do?! He knows so many people, from back in the day. So, of course, I had to stay up just a little longer. So tired.
I don't know how our characters (Annabelle, Rensin, Don) got onto the topic of how fish breathe, but...
I typoed with much justice. Something akin to "the f*** suck water". I had no idea why what I said was so funny, but Rensin had nearly collapsed into laughter OOCly. When I finally realized it, the RP had collapsed into us three OOCly motorcycling around Hearthglen.
Oh! Then I'd like to say I actualy laghed at reading the story :3
Besides that...
I joined at the end of the Sin'sholai stuff. My first summer here was filled with a Good vs Evil war that spread into other things, annnd I would say generally ended with the plague on Booty Bay. A predecessor to the worm plague in Tanaris.

That reminds me of the Grey Militia. And Siv Saint. And...hmm, Kretol's demigodness, the Ring of Ultimate OOC Power, Mikain's one armed druid, the whole character development of Krent, the time someone tried to RP a vampire demon thing, people playing as guards and the hilarity (re: insanity) that came from it, Rensin's Tauren nearly inhaling my blood elf, having my warlock getting sealed in a coffin by Mikain, the seige of Stormwind, Lakeshire, and Darkshire by zombies, fel orcs, and demons, Kretol turning people into gnomes and punting them over the mountains, the creepy draenei child, and the forbidden word that makes any old member of CotH cringe in horror.
I know there's more but I'm tired. XD
