Let the Cat out of the Bag

Until someone aggroed it and ran below and died, it aggroing you if you were AFK, lol.

No sneak? Silent oil? O.o

Well! Glad to see I'm not the only one who remembers those days. Ah... Good times...

Here's another one I used on occasion that's also sure to spark a few memories:
"brb, wc"

Simple and (more importantly) believable, I would say this just before zoning into a place like Garlaige Citadel or Crawler's Nest. Then, I would lie in wait for one of my party members to get there and zone in before me before I'd be "back".

See, back in the Before Time, mobs didn't despawn. Ever. This lead to situations where someone (usually a THF Flee-ing from a bad pull) would book it for the zone with a naturally aggressive bat or crawler on their butt. And what's the one thing you can count on bats and crawlers to do? Link with every other member of their species in sight. Thus, it was fairly common for said THF to hit the zone with an army of mobs right behind them.

The mobs then begin their very slow trek back to their normal pathing areas. Then, some poor, unsuspecting schmuck walks by, not expecting an aggressive mob right there. This means aggro, which in turn means the still-gathered army of mobs eats you in about 2 seconds flat. The Army of Doom was also probably moved back towards the entrance as the luckless passerby tried to flee for the safety of the zone, which would only restart the whole process.

Depending on the traffic in the zone, this army could hang around for upwards of 30 minutes, devouring dozens of Adventurers. There were times you would zone in and quite literally be dead before your character even loaded!

While I wouldn't say it was common per se, it happened enough times that almost everyone had some experience with it. As the squishy healer, I only felt it was my moral duty to let my less squishy party members go first, to tell me if it was safe enough. And, yes, several times I did have party members die while i quietly waited outside. In my defense, I was the person with the Raise spell...
