Toy Train Sets

[Windzarko]

I'm going to say this somewhere everyone can see it:

Toy Train Sets are banned in raids. If you use one, you'll have a -10 penalty applied to your loot rolls as if you'd won a roll on an item.

And remember that it can be seen in combat logs who put it down, so there's no escaping!

From an outside perspective... this post seems obscure

you're damn right it does.

But from an inside perspective it might be the best post ever made.

Damn right it's the best ever.

For the sake of those who don't know what I'm talking about: there's a Toy Train Set item purchasable from a vendor in Dalaran that, when placed on the ground, makes all nearby players frequently and repeatedly do the /train emote, without their consent. In a raid when there are 10 or more people present, it becomes intensely frustrating very very quickly, and despite requests for people to stop doing it, it still gets done.

So there's a punishment for doing it now, basically.

Once I found out that item existed I solo ran that instance 14 times to get that drop
Man oh man did it make me popular in the raids

I has it as well. It quietly resides in my bank, hopefully never needing to be used... *epic music*

What does /train do?

"Chug chug chug , CHOOO WOOOOOO" with your character moving it's arms in a train-wheel fashion

Toy train sets are going to get the biggest nerf in the history of the game.... although I cannot find a link, the toy shop on the PTR is now apparently selling a robot gnome that can be used to stomp all over the train sets
