The LFG system in TBC is basically a list of people that have signed up for a dungeon. Once you get a group you don´t get teleported to the dungeon, that´s added in WoTLK.

In TBC you still need to walk (in most cases people will fly) to the dungeon once you get your group. The meeting stones from vanilla are turned into summoning stones. When 3 people are outside a dungeon they can summon their companions much like a Warlock can summon people.

TL;DR: people still need to travel to the dungeon in TBC.

Justicar/Conquerer was added with the achievement system in 3.0.2 pre-wrath launch

If you find proof, I will believe it.

https://web.archive.org/web/20080708053 ... s=justicar
https://web.archive.org/web/20081009195 ... =conqueror

That is a search a month or two before 3.0.2's release with the achievement system. no info on a title "Justicar" nor "Conqueror." I couldn't find anything in any of the 2.x patch notes either using web archive. That title along with "Guardian of Cenarius" a guildie and I grinded out days after 3.0 release because we wanted them.

Uh, I played retail TBC pretty hardcore from start to finish, and I remember seeing people with Conqueror and Justicar in 2007. The titles were definitely around before the achievements were added.

And here's a very old screenshot that was before Sunwell came out: http://i.imgur.com/bJ3cmxE.jpg

The player I have targeted is showing Conqueror.

Well, finally found it, thank you for proof without date. If the game is progressive, the titles will not be rewarded until 2.1/BT release and you will retroactively and actively get the titles upon the rep gain after BT release if Blizzlike.

New title of Justicar is now available for Alliance players exalted with Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch factions.
New title of Conqueror is now available for Horde players exalted with Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch factions.

Wow, someone's awfully snide. See, I actually know some of this shit because I, you know, experienced it. I had something like over 150 days /played at level 70. It's also pretty easy to determine the patch by the gear we're wearing. I have Season 2 weapons and full T5, so we hadn't been clearing Hyjal/BT very much by that point. I also had a main hand Warglaive before 2.4.

It wasn't meant to be snide. The staff wants concrete proof like I provided not a random screenshot without dates. Good for you 150 days. I only had 68 on my priest and 45 on my rogue by 2.3. I was legitimately thanking you for providing proof so I could get a date/patch note with the titles so staff knows when to implement the titles.

It came across that way, as if you expected me to somehow time stamp something from 2007 after changing computers twice. By looking at the gear and other elements, it's very easy to tell it's before 3.0. They also might have the titles in right away because of how a progressive server works. We had the current Vanilla honour system, ranks, as well as WSG and AB, right when the server launched, when we shouldn't have had it until 1.4 and 1.7.
