GM Island is mainly used for testing. A GM will of course modify a flag to an npc or object making it invisible to players. On GM island there is nothing but a few chairs, the GM box or as others call it the official GM Jail with an object in it called "The Chair". On GM island besides the chairs people see there is actually a mailbox there. The mailbox is just a simple mailbox used for GM's when they have the Blizzard Stationary. To the right of the island there is a Way point. The way point allows GM's access to the auction house, Bank, Guild Bank, and a hearthstone set (but of course a gm doesn't need a hearthstone, it just makes teleporting faster sometimes). On the inside there are 8 chairs on the second floor. On the third floor there are 6 chairs.

More info about GM Island:
GM Island is not "instanced". It is simply put far out in the map. If it was instanced it would have another MAP id then 1 for Kalimdor.

It is indeed off the far left corner of Kalimdor.

People can still get to GM Island by a exploit. Some are using the trick to slow fall then disconnect with a death to appear at the GM Island Graveyard.

GM Box:
The GM Box is very basic. It has a few amazing features. (Xsnipey actually was allowed to teleport me into it. One of the best features is it says your on GM Island but people using who can not see you on GM Island. They see you where ever you were last. Inside is an object called "The Chair" it just looks cool, and is probably the only chair that looks even a little bit similar to the GM box. Oh and also, The GM box is under the hill of GM Island. About 20 or so feat under it.

Before people give me a minus because they think that my screen shots were made on a private server, My friend Xsnipey, is a WoW Admin. I know Him in real life and he got permission to show me GM Island. He did not however allow me to go there. He made me cast a spell called Bind Sight (PT).

Being a former GM myself, GM Island is nothing spectacular. Upon getting hired, you'll have access to a tool that logs toons into every server that you're assigned to. Your first duty is to teleport all your in-game toons to GM Island and that is where they stand. There's a boat, a keep kind of like SI:7 in Stormwind and a small hill. It's littered with GM's just standing there. They don't interact with you because the tool is used out-of-game. This is how they communicate to you in-game via tells.

In Stormwind, a remarkably similar building to one that centers GM Island is present, it has the seating and decoration to that of GM island and the only difference I believe there is would be the Warrior trainers and basement.
You can find it in the Old town PvP center. The North-East jut.
Did I mention that it's nearly exactly like the one in GM island?

GM Island is not special in the slightest. There's nothing ever going on there, there's no NPCs, there's just emptiness. I believe there's some terrain and a little house of some kind, but it doesn't do anything.

Really, the only use for this island, is a place to put the GM characters into the game. They don't test epic weapons here, there's no stash of loot, there's nothing except naked GM toons.

GMs don't play WoW when they're answering your tickets. They log into the game through their own special internal client, designed entirely for handling tickets and e-mails, and doing anything that a GM may need to do to help answer tickets - from moving characters, to generating items (if they're a specialist) and other things like that.

If ever a player were to accidentally get onto GM Island, all they would find is a couple hundred naked toons all standing on the exact same spot. They wouldn't even be able to see anything you do, because they're not technically controlling their characters.
Yes, naked. GMs will ONLY get fancy GM robes in the extremely rare occasion where they actually have to make a physical appearance. So most standard GMs don't have robes. Even the higher-echelon "leads" of the GMs rarely have GM robes.

The characters are JUST there so that the client has a way to whisper players in the game.

So can we not submit screenshots of said Island?

lol go to teldrassil and jump from cliff (USE ROCKET BOOTS AND PARACHUTE)and after 4mins of falling u will arrive!tested!

評論來自 wolfangseven

The reason for GM Island not having its own map or having screenshots is because in the World of Warcraft it doesnt really exist. When you get on GM Island you see a bunch of blurry squares on your mini-map. And by the time Catalysm comes out there will be no way to get to it because said island will be in its own phase by itself.

Thats why when you use rocket boots u wait till your almost at the ground then use your parachute

an old gm told me that on the island there is a prison, where they sometimes put botters. :D

This is correct; there are several locations that Blizzard likes to put and to do to players that break the rules. If you ask a GM to take you to the "White Room" which is simply a bright white room where you (the player) are forces to sit in a chair. Unable to escape even by means of hearthstone. Where they pretty much "talk to you". The answer 99% of the time will be no] because; if they do something like that, the GM can lose their job for "abusing" their powers.

/console worldport gm

This does not work on retail, you do not have the ability to use this console commands. You do however have access to certain console commands such as.

/console ffx 0
/console hwPCF 1
/console shadowlod 0
/console timingmethod 1
/console showshadow 0
/console showfootprints 0
/console showfootprintparticles 0
/console overridefarclip 0
/console farclip 177
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console detailDoodadAlpha 0
/console groundeffectdensity 16
/console groundeffectdist 1
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console characterAmbient 1
/console extshadowquality 0
/console environmentDetail 0.5

These console commands "should" improve your fps rate, but it varies between computers. Continuing on the whole "GM Island" bit. This place will and probably can get you banned from World of Warcraft. You are violating the Terms of Service by going to places using "Fancy" methods or "Fancy" jumping. If you do feel the need to explore the world past the boundaries you are allowed, be ready to accept a temp ban, permanent ban, and even in extreme cases a ip ban. The reason why you can be banned is because no players are suppose to be or are allowed to be there. In the recent years of this game, GMs have been hugging the book tightly and aren't even allowed or go to this island. Again, this is what I have been told.

I can not be crossed as of now without hacking (I have done several tests and have come to the conclusion that you indeed have to hack to get through the blue wall. I've used several macros for disconnection among other things and I just can't pass the wall without using a noclip hack). However; it use to be able to be crossed if you did it correctly. (Thunder Shock or whatever the Shaman ability is called) or the fastest possible rocket boots along with parachute macros, slowfall, or levitation allowed you to go through it. If you used a disconnection macro around 4 minutes in, and then waited about 2 minutes to log back in. You will either find yourself on the island. Or you'll find yourself in the barrens (at least before The Shattering bit). A GM once told me that The Barrens is / was a built in "safety net" for people doing things like this.

This comment will probably be down rated due to the whole "hurrdurr, you went there on a private server" mentality. But, they use to and probably still do use these secret rooms and locations that are hidden across the World.

Still exploring...

14.4.2012
GM locations:
QA and DVD
- Just quite big and completely empty rectangle
Exterior Test
- Two separated and strange-shaped pieces of texture with some cool terrain

Other unused locations:
Old scarlet monastery
- 1 instance with final bosses from Library, Armory and Cathedral. Much more appropriate to outdoor look...
The Stockades: Stormwind Vault
- second stockades dungeon. Located in the second tower, still enterable.
Emerald Dream
- Location made in vanilla which was never used.
Azshara Crater
- When in patch x.x.x blizzard was creating Battlegrounds, the 40 players battleground should had been this location but in some time later they found out it is not good so... In WotLK you were still able to find entrances in Azshara location. There's a map

Not sure how the hell my group members got inside the Island, but they summoned me there. I have put a screenshot up just so you get an idea of what the place looks like. Other than my Printscreen i really cant offer any other information haha.

Ah after further 'research' i am beginning to believe the area to where i was summoned, the big white room with a sole chair in the middle, is 'under' the island. You can duel in there, i know that much. You can also QUE BG's and jump around in circles.

Blizzard should give role players a fancy place like this that wont get them banned,because that house look really nice.

評論來自 Dyingsoul

In patch 1.1 Game Masters used to take players who had committed a serious offence to the "GM Prison" which is under GM island, The GM prison was / is a white box with a chair in the middle.

As of 4.3 the textures of the island became white except from the trees and the house.

I used to be a GM, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

I found a bug approximately a year ago, so if Blizzard hasn't fixed it by now, it's on them. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has found it. And, I have kept silent about it in all the time until now.

I created a Tauren druid. I decided it would be more fun to start out in the Troll area. And so, there is one quest, where you have to "capture" a raptor that has gone mustang, and ride it back to a specific area. Only... it didn't let me dismount, once I got the raptor back where it was supposed to be! I was stuck in constant motion, since the raptor always moves forward, and you can only guide the direction it goes. I couldn't even quit the quest and start over. I was STUCK!

So, I decided to kill myself by riding into the water and drowning. Only... I got really, really far out and there was no debuff threatening to kill me. I opened a ticket, and decided to keep going in that direction... I wanted a GM to see that something was obviously wrong, so they wouldn't tell me to "GO RESET YOUR ENTIRE UI AND DELETE ALL ADDONS!" (I get so damn sick of that cheap excuse)

And, I nearly reached the Maelstrom, but ran into a "force wall" of shimmering light. Kinda makes me wish I'd tried for GM Island. But then, I wouldn't want to get my account auto-banned for that.

As of the recent beta build to battle for azeroth Gm island Officially no longer exists and has been removed from the game entirely

(Upon further inspection of minimaps it is still there just somewhat hard to see as of the way blizzard are now handeling em)

評論來自 Elyrellessa

Today is the day of the alleged GM Island removal. I'll be posting a video on YouTube as to what happens if you log out on GM Island after the patch. RIP to a piece of WoW history.

UPDATE: It's gone. I was teleported to Darnassus upon leaving GM island (Forcefully teleported out)
