Good thing they remembered to seal that cave off or you would have run
'behind the world' like I did in Butcherblock. Eventually you run out of
terrain to stand on the back of and fall to the bottom of the world. The
server will then relocate you to 'a safe point', infortunately in
Butcherblock 'a safe point' is apparently several miles above sea level. I
promptly fell for 32000 points of damage. And no, at least in EQ, you don't
die before you hit the ground. Interestingly it did take me several seconds
to hit the ground, too bad I don't have levitate yet.
On a side note it was cool to see 'behind the sets' so to speak. Made me
feel like I was in an old Hollywood western in some storefront ghost town.
If anyone is curious and wants to see this send me a reply and I'll tell you
how to get there.

On the topic of strange bugs, here is an amusing one:
If you are familiar with the Unrest Zone, you are aware of how you run down
the twisty tunnel between Cauldron and Unrest and the zone point is in the
tunnel.
I was standing just around the second turn in the tunnel in Unrest having
just zoned in and heading for the courtyard when someone yelled "train to
zone!" so I stopped and waited. Around the next corner came 2 tentacle
terrors and one of them ran straight at me, hit me with that special attack
they have and threw me against the wall toward the direction I had come
from. The I regained my bearings and it hit me again, threw me down the
tunnel against another wall and came charging at me for another go.
I decide now is a good time to turn tail and run, zone to safety and wait
out the chaos - so I turn the next corner and there is a dead end...no
zone...a flat wall in front of me! I get smacked by the tentacles again,
and again up against the wall and realize in a split second that they
knocked me PAST the zone point so I had to turn around and head the opposite
direction back INTO unrest and as I rounded the corner I zoned into Cauldron
with 2 bubbles of health.
Crazy place...awful fun though ;-)
