Even more interestingly, Thrall gets in a big fight... and LOSES. I don't even play WoW, and I know what a big deal that is.

According to the guild chatter going right now, Stormwind just got hit too.

I was over at my brothers house watching as stormwind harbor got hit several times in less than an hour, except for a few faction points per kill i do not see a point to it other than some silly dev made it to fill up the harbor space.
The king of stormwind and his pals handily destroyed anything that got near them in a couple hits. Folks participating were complaining about no loot and little rep for the trouble of running all the way to the harbor when in reality the harbor was in no danger at all, a very poor event in my opinion.

I don't think the event is poor. It's important lore, and it's a battle in which the players have a chance to participate. When the attacks occur, the leaders assemble their forces and drive it back; they aren't going to let it burn just because no wandering adventurers show up. Then we all head to Northrend to deal with it at its source. Well, maybe it is a poor event if you are only interested in your personal advantage. But as part of the continuing story, it's great.

The event was to set the stage for what's coming... its purpose was NOT for loot for experience. It was to encourage people to log on before THursday...check out the new harbor...visit cities they hadn't. It's a community event. Geesh...someone is a thinly disguised WoW hater. Be gone before we drop something on you.... ; )
