I remember vaguely that pallies could pop bubble and still run the flag in BGs. Did this get axed sometime in vanilla or was it TBC? Can't remember.
But yea, bubble hearth is coming back.... muahahah
EDIT: poking around on interwebs, I guess BoP might be what I was thinking. Still pretty amazing.
I do not ever remember that, but I did abuse BoP before they required the same raid group.
Went like this, your priest MC's the EFC, then you BoP the EFC, then flag = returned because immunity auto dropped

I'm pretty sure that was axed very very early in vanilla.
I do remember if you were quick enough you could set up a mage portal, mindcontrol the enemy, and send them to your capital. That was dirty AF
it was axed in one of the hot fixes after warsong gulch came out
I remember people trolling with bop, you could force a team member to drop the flag!
so what you would do is mindcontrol efc, bop efc they drop the flag gg
edit: Guess Härländ beat me to it on this one but it could be done with mind control cap too!
I am interested in engineering speed stuff works because i think you can't nitroboost or use the flag with a glider in the current retail game while holding the flag, wonder if that translates across!
also wsg has different gy positions or something due to gy farming ?

Think I remember seeing it before but in bc the full immunity one always dropped the flag I believe.
blessing of protection was very usable on flag carriers clear until cataclysm I remember, didn't drop the flag in my time as a paladin in bc-cata cata it may of changed.

I still remember the beginning of BC.
It was so glorious.
The numbers of blood elf paladins that would go grab the flag in WSG and then bubble while carrying. As well as the ones that would go up to an AB flag or AV one and bubble thinking they could cap during said bubble.

I dont think it was due to farming. It made it harder for turtles though, defenders had a harder time getting back to their own flag room cause they had to drop down and run up the tunnel rather than back in the front door.
The graveyards were lowered to prevent warriors on both factions from charging/intercepting into the graveyard and having easy access to the flag room.
It was only after they were lowered that graveyard farming became more prominent because you could not escape from the graveyard so people would stop ressing, which is when they put a time limit on the game.

Yeah they absolutely butchered WSG.
Lowered GYs enabling GY farm from bottom.
Time Limit.
Flag carrier now appears on map after an amount of time. (anyone rem being fc and hiding from the opposing team? I was a serious pro at this)
And that freaking awful debuff that weakens you then slows you down and keeps you from speeding up, absolutely horrible.
I totally forgot about this......haxxxx

Bears repeating
I've lost count the amount of times I've abused paladins for bubbling with the flag.
