In the dark

Over and near the end of the summer I was playing less WoW. As a result, I was reading less about it as well. Now that I've started playing again I realize I'm playing in the dark. Since I haven't been kept abreast of WoW goings-on, I'm coming across things by accident. Some things I wish I hadn't missed, like lots of easy xp in battlegrounds (they've since nerfed it), but others have been nice surprises, like a small new area of land added. I won't say where so it may be a surprise to you too!
