To get an idea how they grouped zones a bit, this picture was taken showing the expansion zones for Burning Crusade, apparently you could move between them with a few tricks.

I was always more impressed with Asheron's Call management of areas, as they initially had one zone friend world, it would load land blocks as players accessed them.
- mahouse 12y agoWhoa. I'm pretty sure that screenshot was taken with around 1 fps. :)
- scrollaway 12y ago3.7 FPS (top left). I've done a lot of reverse engineering of World of Warcraft as I worked on its internals for years. If this is an interesting subject I might write about it. Anything specific people would want to know?
- mahouse 12y agoYou don't know how much happy you would make me if you do this. Write about anything you want, you could even make a series of articles. Thank you in advance.

- scrollaway 12y agoMahouse, your comment is dead for some reason. I've mostly learned about the internals of the WoW client itself and how it interacts with the server. I suppose I will eventually write about it when inspiration strikes me, but I'll be happy to answer any more specific questions you have. It's a very broad subject.
- mahouse 12y agoIt's dead because a moderator removed it, it was too personal I guess. Any mail address I can use to reach you. Thanks.
- scrollaway 12y agoOf course. On my profile.
