Where is all the iron? (Classic WotLK)

I’ve been through 4 different zones today, Tanaris, Badlands, Dustwallow, and Arathi, and I’ve managed to find 2 nodes with 8 total ore, and this is the third time this weekend! What is going on with iron spawn rates?

The iron is waiting for you on the wrath classic forum.

I’ve had this problem (i.e., can’t find iron nodes) since WoW Classic. A guide to which I’ve referred indicated Arathi Highlands was a good place to farm iron. I seem to remember, back when I started in Wrath, that Arathi was the place where I got my iron. I’m hoping, when Wrath is released, the what I remember will actually become the case. Otherwise, it’s going to be a tough row to hoe leveling BS or Eng.

I dunno what’s going on now. I just ran up on an iron node, started mining it, and after the first whack, a troll appeared, hit it twice, and the node and the troll disappeared.

Server latency? Network latency? Hacker? Got any ideas?

Sounds like a teleport-hacking mining bot to me.
