On the World of Warcraft: Forever beta, players found a way to kill freshly created characters right at the spawn point using campfires — Classic Era campfires deal no damage from other players.

What players found on the forum

Open beta participants of World of Warcraft: Forever found a way to kill freshly created characters even before they enter the game for the first time. The method uses a campfire, and a newcomer can die before they ever gain control of their character.

In Classic Era, campfires don't behave this way — they deal no damage from other players. Players on the forum specifically highlight this discrepancy between the branches and consider it a Blizzard bug.
