      That cant be the Mealstrom in the mid of map....  If it was it would be reachable, but its not, the Mealstrom is in-game, so the swirling vortex is not the mealstrom, its just design. Im guessing the REAL Mealstrom is out of map.

              Hi

              in many places there are sea monsters and sharks.

              For instance, if you swim out from Durotar, the Troll and Ork starting area, you'll find many sea creatures. It'll start of with low levels crabs and that, then level 13 sharks, then massive lvl 30 sharks, then lvl 50 sea monsters like massive lock ness style creatures and massive turtles and even weird sea god thingies.

                Thottbot, a mix of both fact and fault, has its ups and downs. Sadly as of now there is no dugeon, or shall i say accesible place to get to The Forbidding Sea. I have being gather supplies for a trip to the maelstrom in the middle of the world map... I have calculated this trip to take a few hours. I theorize when i get the the server will crash, nothing will be there, or i might never make it. Stay up to date with my posts on the forbidding sea and the great sea to find out if i make it! I beleive there may be secrets waiting to be unfold in the maelstrom.... only time will tell.

                Second GM island is no longer reachable on live servers.
                Yes Emerald dream is accesible on live servers without hacks third party programs or instance switching. My proof is when you get a new patch if you look carefully at whats updateing you will se for about 2 or 3 seconds they are updateing the emerald dream CoT Hyjal etc..
                Deeprun tram aquarium is accesible! But only to hunters pets. If you want to get in use a emu server. Oh and to the person who said Emerald dream was on another level of the game it's not.
                The game is like a cube.
                On the bottem middle it has Eastern kindoms to the right of it is kalimdor. To the left of eastern kingdoms is Outlands, In the center is the black morass. To the left of black morass is Old Hillsbrad. To the right of black morass is GM island and creators island.
                At the top middle is well you guessed it Northrend. To the left of Northrend is restoration plane ( Oh yes delted characters lost items everything you thought was gone is there in a giant fucking pile, it's not accesible but it's there because well can't get things back if they are completly removed from the game.And to the right or northrend is what people call the twisting nether.

                Does this have anything to do with that old Mage glitch?  Most likely if you go far enough it just ends.  Like in WC III maps.  I think what happens when you go into instances is it is a copied continent.  If they dont expect you to leave the instance they can test or just throw new scenary out there for fun.  New outlands scenary or what ever should be made in the future.  By putting it on the server they could be seeing how much information it takes up for the entire server and if it would work for later uses.  There may be one way to test this and that is threw ZG glitch.  Doubting anyone in ZG would do it after finding such a group, if you hike to very top of ZG gates you can hope them and then maybe be able to go to the forbiden sea.  I saw that mage glitch and what they did, when they jumped through the void they merely jumped through the mountain and landed on the sea on the other side.  Strangely there was a giant land there which looks just like the areas of lesser importance in Azeroth, mountain tops, Places you would never see.  My theory ^.^
