I Fell Through The Ground -- Why?

I was leveling in Dragonblight on my level 71 Rogue (Snowfall Glade to be more exact) and I used a move called Killing Spree/ if you're familiar with the spell ... you move all over your enemy while attacking from all different angles. Well, I guess one of these angles was underneath and I fell through the ground and died. I could not recover myself at my body so I had to resurrect myself at the Spirit Healer.

Also, if it helps -- when I died I did not get the 6 minute warning timelimit to release my body ... it was similar to dying in an instance where there is no time deadline to release.

Why did this happen and what should I be doing?

Q u o t e:
That was careless of you.


Be nice Nix *glares*.

It may have been a small 'hole' in the world and that particular location, or it's sometimes possible to have a bit of file corruption that allows one to pop through the terrain like that - and naturally....fall....a long way.

Is this the only time this has happened? If so, I'd say it was where you happened to be standing, if not, you might want to try running repair tool (in your WoW directory) to make sure nothing has become corrupted.
