What are your WoW nostalgia moments?

I played vanilla WoW on release, and I'm thinking of coming back to play Shadowlands primarily due to the revamped leveling system

My moments:

* Was my first MMO, so the scope of everything was amazing. Remember first logging in, and just being terrible/clueless. Took awhile to figure out how to chat, etc
* Farming runecloth so I could get exalted with night elves so I could get the night elf mount as a gnome
* AVs that lasted for days/weeks
* Raiding guild, who was full of angry cubans that yelled alot. We made it up to naxx

I have way too many to list honestly, but here are a few that came to mind in no particular order.
  • Meeting one of my all-time best rl friends who also happened to be #1 on achievement points world wide. On that note, it looks like he currently is again :D https://www.wowprogress.com/character/eu/kazzak/Xhanon
  • Meeting several friends met in-game irl
  • Carrying ^Tandfen ^BlindzF
  • Randomly running into Buzzkill leveling his alt (considered the bets PvE warlock at the time, member of <Ensidia>) and hitting it off pretty well. Unfortunately I lost contact with him when I quit in Cata.
  • My first time leveling in Ganklethorn Vale and getting absolutely destroyed.
  • Accidentally ninja pulling all the orcs in Redridge Mountains on my first char and the rage that ensued
  • First time stepping into Ulduar and raiding it in general.
  • Getting my swift spectral tiger (I still have the TCG card saved)
  • Getting my Rukhmar mount when I was on voice with a friend. The Rarity addon sounded off and my friend heard it in the background and started yelling haha.
  • Getting full Tier 3 on Shaman, Warrior, Paladin and Druid
  • Completing all the Legion spec solo challenges
  • Getting the swift zulian tiger only a few months before the raid was removed. The tree stump solo cheese was real, if you know you know.
  • Farming Tusks of Mannoroth and landing the drop on Christmas Eve.
  • Achievement proc testing with several Wowhead staff
  • Camping and obtaining TLPD, Aeonaxx, uldum figurine camel, voidtalon
  • Getting carried to 2000 rating so I could get the coolest elite shaman set in the game imo (I don't pvp) --> https://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=2634/fierce-gladiators-ringmail-armor-elite-recolor
  • Making cringe nu-metal and techno video guides in my adolescence
