Southpark do A LOT of research into a topic when they cover it. They do it so they can purposely say things wrong to upset the true fans of the series. They know every single thing wrong and they're doing it on purpose. They do it in a way that if you know nothing about the topic it sounds perfectly accurate but if you actually understand it you're like "HEY WAIT!!" Next you're going to make a video on the MTG episode about how they said Trample was Haste. Yeah, they did that on purpose. That's the joke. This entire video concept is just r/woosh

Back in the day when there was no heirloom tab you had to mail them back and forth, I would have my horde toon transmog the tabard on the account bound guild tabard then mail it to my intended toon. So I had a stan toon but my favorite was my worgen with red and gold T7 horde armor.

enchanting items in ANY version of wow does NOT make it soulbounded. its EXTREMELY common for fiery starter weapons to hit auction house in era for ~200-850g

[@Mumohan_]

That is not the same Fiery starter weapons or spellpower starter weapons have base item thats specifically chosen because it cannot become soulbound For example no matter how many times you equip or enchant a skinning knife it will never become soulbound BoE items though do get soulbound to their owner the moment they get enchanted since like middle of vanilla so if you get a green boe cloak and enchant it with agility or whatever it WILL become soulbound to you There were some exploits that allowed you to enchant and trade an item at the same time, and some enchanting consumables letting you enchant a BoE item without it binding to you, but these were consistently patched out

[@fwl4766]

But if its not a boe, i.e a grey item you can chant it and trade it...

[@BillyMiles-k5o]

@@Mumohan_ In the trade items window there was a box on the bottom that was not to be traded. You would trade the components and gold before hand, then open a new trade window and put the item you wanted enchanted in the not to be traded window so it would come back to you and it would be soulbound to you and not the enchanter.

[@VideoGamesRus100]

@@Mumohan_ Nah even to this day you can enchant a BoE then send it to an alt.

[@Hourani95]

actually in classic wow you CAN enchant items and they do not become soulbound.

[@RetirededKat]

Enchantments don't soulbind the item. Even if it requires enchanting, the enchant is only disabled when equipped by a character without the appropriate skill level. Items soulbind in two ways: automatically upon acquisition, or after being equipped.

[@MrFreezzin]

They worked directly with Blizzard when making this episode. Its not so much “mistakes” as “creative liberties” 😅

[@nujake]

Orcs could also be hunters. If the Cloak of the Tiger was a white or gray item, it could be tradable after enchantment, however the name "of the Tiger" typically denotes an item quality above common.

[@PT19922]

You could eltchant items and they didn't automatically soulbind. Except later ring entchantments. But in Classic all entchantments could be given to items that would still be tradeable afterwards.

I think you made a good video here but truth be told: the beauty of that episode is how South Park took WoW and did whatever they wanted, and it was awesome. It was the first time us Vanilla players really got to see our game on the big screen/on mainstream television at all. While it obviously wasn’t a perfect and accurate representation of the game, it still brought tens of thousands of new players to WoW and made a lasting impact on the tons of people who will love WoW forever. Somehow this game and this episode both give me some of the most nostalgic feelings I’ve ever had, and I wouldn’t trade either of them for anything else in the world.

I think for your #13 inconsistent character names, if we base it off HCWOW logic which seems to be what the episode is based off of before HC was even a concept, whenever a character dies they lose the character and make a new one, so I’m gonna go on the assumption that since a character died within 24 hours with the same name it couldn’t be used again and thus “Stan is cool” became “Loves to Splooge” probably not a canon reason but it’s the only logical reason I can fathom

I liked the name reference here with the griefer, "Jenkins" killing his own faction, thats clearly a reference to Leeroy Jenkins and the famous UBRS wipe video which later went on to become a skit in Family Guy. Also, that number Cartman states when telling the boys how many boars it would take is also a really bad nerd joke as that is the longest integer a 32 bit system can store, which is what everyone used at the time. As an interesting side note, on the Cataclysm beta realms it was indeed possible to kill your own faction the way Jenkins did here by joining a same faction BG and leaving it as a ghost with the opposite factions debuff still on you, this made you an enemy to your own faction which then began to spread like a disease even amongst NPC's, turning cities into battlegrounds. I recorded footage of this while I was on one of those servers, search on here for: Cataclysm Varian Rolls Horde and it should come up.

[@clem-hk2di]

you forgot some inconsistencies, like when we see Cartman's pov and he has a rogue interface when he should obviously play a warrior or paladin. My theory on Jenkins is that he is a hacker or game dev of WoW, it would explain a lot of things like being able to kill players from his own faction and not being banned because he would have access to the database and be able to import his character back, removing himself from the banned list, editing his level, spells... Maybe the scorpid invocation is a supposedly unobtainable trinket, like that sword at the end, by the way Randy wouldn't have been able to give it to Stan since he equipped it and such item would probably be linked once equipped.

He's failing at it slightly, granted, given him using a bow, but he is not a hunter. #14 - This is mostly true, except we don't actually know their level. We're just judging based on their current gear. #13 - Name changes were possible in Vanilla. However, the more damning part is Stan's level/gear combination. #9 - This isn't something they got wrong - it's just that they did not include the Horde. #7 - So... how did they get this wrong? #6 - Despite there never being an agility enchant past +3 in Vanilla? #4 - Did they say that Ike was playing a new character? #3 - So... again... how did they get this wrong? #1 - So, this was not a weapon, it was a shirt, and the player didn't go into PvP, they went into raids and was ultimately banned.

[@mhopjr]

Doesnt mention how level 2 (stan's dad) hunter is in a warrior starting gear? He probably created a warrior. At the time of the episode gathering did not grant any exp, as it was added in Cata. 9:55 You cant duel in Orgrimmar, everyone knows you battle front of orgri/SW? There is no +15 agi cloak enchant anyway, and you could have traded some items with enchants anyway, like skinning knife/mining pickaxe. Jenkins is not a mage, jenkins is a cheater, I too used to cheat on one private server and I had spellbook bigger than encyclopedia. Did you copy the wowpedia post and left some out?: Many battles were taken place in mid/high level zones such as Arathi Highlands, however many characters who were in level 1 gear were roaming these areas and killing the monsters; which, ingame, would be harrowing as your aggro radius would be huge. Kenny and Randy were human hunters, though the hunter class was not available to humans at the time, nor had the Cataclysm expansion been announced. Hunters are unable to equip a shield. In Randy's case, he is equipped with the starting warrior gear, which may indicate that Randy's class may have actually been warrior and he only described himself as a "hunter". Kenny may similarly have been a warrior or a rogue, as those classes can also use bow weapons. Randy's Bar UI also displays a warrior stance bar, further implying that he is a warrior. Though he plays a human, Stan's character wears the [Frostwolf Battle Tabard]. No one, not even Jenkins, can summon four scorpions (though the spell in question is reminiscent of Warcraft I). However, if you allow for the fact that Jenkins had become so powerful that even Game Masters couldn't stop him, anything's possible. Despite most likely being a mage (due to his use of Fireball and Arcane Explosion), Jenkins wears a helmet which appears to be either plate or mail, normally unwearable for a mage (although it is stated that he achieved a never-before-seen level, thus probably gaining the ability to wear such a helmet). Is not possible for Alliance players to kill other Alliance players outside of the four arenas where Player vs All is allowed. This is a major plot point of the episode, as Jenkins is stated to be such a high level that he can "ignore the game's rules" and thus kill indiscriminately. It is said Jenkins has more levels than any other player or the GMs, but in World of Warcraft, the level is capped. In the starting area of Elwynn Forest, the low level mobs are wolves and not boars. However, boars are present in the forested area south of Goldshire, which is where the party appeared to have been grinding. No matter how many low level mobs you kill, you cannot level only by killing those; once a mob turns grey (between 10 and 20 levels lower than you, depending on your level), it is no longer worth any experience. A Game Master can kill any player character or simply ban them; Jenkins should not have caused much problem. Butter's character was supposedly recently created when appeared, but wore mid-level equipment and not the starting gear. All characters in the episode were Alliance characters. No mention of the Horde is made. Butters remarks that there are "only four races to choose from" in the game (at the time of the episode's airing, there were 4 Alliance races). The world map present in Cartman's basement when he is giving the briefing to his large party is only a map of the Eastern Kingdoms, and all scenes in-game are depicted in Eastern Kingdoms zones (Elwynn Forest and Arathi Highlands). No mention of Kalimdor is made. The final battle in the episode is depicted to have lasted over 17 hours. Most boss fights in World of Warcraft have enrage timers to shorten the length of various fights. However, PvP fights (of which the final battle would have been classified) don't have such timers, and could, in theory, last such a long time (although no PvP fight lasts so long in practice). Cartman mentions before the battle that Kyle should give a cloak to Kenny that has a +15 agility enchantment on it. Enchantments on items automatically make an item soulbound and therefore cannot be traded. Near the begining of the episode Kyle can be heard saying "Come on, we have to finish the quest in Stonehaven." No such place exists in game.

That's what I just commented too, well somethin not quite as big as yours - but I notated that South Park and Blizzard Collabed on the episode together, it was even blizzards idea, Chris Metzen gave them friends and family Alpha Access to the BC servers and created some of the random spells, the sword, the instant mana burn etc, just like cheating on private servers, and "GM'Esque" stuff Jenkins to be the whole "He who has no life cannot be killed" And even then ---- most of the actual characters themselves besides the main "crew" and Jenkins were added in Post Production and Maya Studio

[@melwinder1]

Adding on to the fact, Back in 2005 when Alterac Valley came in, one of the first ones ever because people didn't know what to do I think lasted 20 hours or so lol

[@mhopjr]

@@melwinder1 I remember leaving AV to go to school/ getting bored with it because it lasted too long or whatever and coming back hours later only to join the same AV, like dude srsly?

[@retroprogamer7009]

With Enchant it is not meant to be the one an Enchanter does. But the Random Item suffix you get on most Green random drop Gear. In this case it is "...of the Tiger" which gives Agility and Strength

[@mhopjr]

@@retroprogamer7009 I was thinking about it too, but as u pointed out its enchantment would be then +15 agi AND strength, since it is 'of the tiger'. And in the episode he says it is +15 agi, no mention of strength. Also the suffixes are fixed so there is no point of asking what the 'cloak of the tiger' stats give, unless you are a newb and dont know it yet.

[@boydtalavera1]

there was nothing wrong with that episode. if one wants real facts or situation , go watch a documentary.

[@truepickle4956]

Orcs on horde were also hunters in classic

[@sirflimflam]

I still can't believe this episode foresaw the 2023 game Hello Kitty Island Adventure.

[@Joffie69]

The whole Kenny as a human hunter thing was so annoying.. Not just cos they made him human, but cos they said he was a hunter.. with a visible shield!! which all us wow nerds know, hunters dont use shields! lol... That urked me for ages.. lol Edit: Not sure why i wrote Kenny as the Hunter.. when i think it was Randy?.. I havent seen it in years, or South Park for that matter.. Either way. the point was He claimed to be a hunter while holding a shield.. lol

[@shirrenthewanderer414]

Shields are a hunter weapon.

[@Joffie69]

hahaha, they sure are =P

[@mandaloriandeathknight4819]

they did at one time in alpha with bucklers and rogues can use them also but was removed and put into the shield class

[@kennethloki7011]

Everything is hunter gear. Everything.

[@arrestedeffort]

That rare wand that just dropped that has stats clearly made for a warlock? Obviously a hunter weapon.

[@SamanthaStephens-nc8rr]

coming from somebody who has been playing WoW since cata, I think they got a lot of it pretty spot on. Especially when Cartman is about to die and screams while slowly running away, "NO! I don't want to have to start over at the graveyard!"

[@Margonite]

This was based on, and took place during, WoW vanilla (not the classic remake). Pretty good video. Though, herbs and mining nodes did not give exp back then. Fun fact: The Sword of a Thousand Truths is obtainable in Hearthstone!

[@haze4622]

werent orcs able to be hunters too?

[@ephgm]

I dueled a druid tree form as a prot pally back in WotLK, we dueled for over an hour and he gave up.

[@EndGameEnt]

I was a Holy Pally that had an equally awesome duel with a Blood DK during WotLK and it is definitely a core memory for me with the game. We had an audience of two though, not a full circle haha.

[@manxy.]

In the german version stan's name is called "We are looking for a mighty knight who's name is crustcheese"

[@UberDragon]

I think the most important inaccuracy is that they're killing boars in northshire when it should be wolves.

[@fallenwarrior9069]

1:58 he also had rogue abilities on his bars and stealth

[@whipseryname4295]

Jfc homie those pop sound effects nearly blew my ear drums put.

[@realLuisGiordano]

"Stonehaven" was a town name in a very early, perhaps pre-Alpha build which showed a proof-of-concept World of Warcraft with a human character in said town. There are screenshots of how that early build looked like, and how radically different the UI was back then. It never came out, not even in the Alpha only Blizzard and those invited by them tested back in the end of 2003.

[@CoachJohnMcGuirk]

Another reason getting to arathi at level one is impossible, discovery XP. From one to two is so short I doubt they could make it there and still be level one. Nobody in their group was a warlock and definitely not high enough level to summon them there.

[@sirplaysgames8331]

Stonehaven is a reference stone talon inn youll catch some dwarfs calling it stonehaven

[@danielaradneva6495]

I knew Jenkins was a mage but for some reason I thought his bubble spell was foreshadowing the druid moon skill. xD After watching this video I remembered that the mages also had this, which I have used a lot in PvP. And in a way I can believe at least an hour of battle 1v1. In lich king capture the flag I was a feral druid that can heal on crits build Vs a tank paladin and we fought for at least 20 min. It was obvious no one can win cause both of us healed too much. Had to abandone the zone with the horde flag in hand when 2 more players decided to show up. If we were allowed to finish the 1v1 fight, it would have probably taken an hour at least.

[@Awsomeman328]

If I'm not mistaken, the Jenkins character's out-of-game player is actually based on a real life dev of WoW with reportedly an obvious resemblances w/ South Park changing his look a bit to look more like the "basement-dweller" versions of the kids you mentioned. Given this background lore, even though we're never told this as the audience, it could make sense both how Jenkins could break the rules as he did to become so powerful & why the GMs couldn't handle taking down & banning Jenkins, b/c he was an inside-man as a fellow dev/GM to the game, especially if Jenkins was a lead dev and part of the team in charge. Of course again, none of this is explicitly stated in the episode, but given the irl inspiration for the character it is an interesting theory to help plug some of these plot holes/mistakes.

[@kurisu100]

Blizzard worked together with them. They did it not wrong it was on purpose.
