threat jumps to me for just being in the area is the dumbest thing I've ever witnessed in an MMO - and apparently that's something trolls do for fun in Hardcore? Fuck off. Party mechanics are inconsistent and poorly designed. Sometimes, quest objective outcomes are shared, then there's times

(most of the time) that they're not. Looted quest items should be shared - if it drops for 1, it should drop for all. Not doing this is artificial difficulty adding no value to the game. I wouldn't mind the inconsistent drop rates so much if that happened. Let the party leader turn in quests

for the entire party if they're close - don't make subsequent players wait for an NPC animation to complete a quest (I know this is fixed with NPC instancing in Retail, but that's a stupid solution only adding to it feeling like a single player game). All uncommon and lower loot being ROG is

stupid. It seems like loot tables are shared across mob type (i.e., humanoid, beast, etc) instead of the mob itself (i.e., Winter Wolf, Grelling, etc). It feels lazy and unrewarding.
Now, not that anyone asked, but what could Blizzard do to improve (in my opinion only)...

1- First, keep the Classic leveling experience/pacing. Do NOT touch this. Probably the biggest rift between the community. Leave it alone.
2- Add the Retail graphical improvements and put a toggle in options for players to choose between Classic and Retail graphics. Take an idea from DAoC.

3- Fix the threat mechanic. In no world should threat jump to a new player when a leash is broken. ESPECIALLY outside of your party.
4- Since you're keeping addons, merge the API base. The same addon should work for both versions (mechanics allowing). For instance, nameplate distance!
