You couldn't summon from meeting stones until TBC. I remember there was something in pre-TBC where you could talk to an innkeeper or use a stone to try and join a group but nobody ever used it. That's probably what was in 1.5. No idea if they'll implement it here, but doesn't sound like a good use of developer time to me.

What does that have to do with anything?
How do you know that nobody ever used it?
It might turn out to be worthwhile.

Because it was trash, no one fucking used it. It was a LFG that just slammed the first five people it could together, regardless of group comp. It was just a bad que system.

It actually was really bad. :/

I vaguely remember it on retail, but nobody used it because you'd end up with some ridiculous group composition, and it wasn't any faster.

Because I played the game back then, and from first-hand experience it was useless, and hence never used, as others here have reiterated.
