Instance Definition

Please see my proposed definition of "instance" under the "terminology" thread on the World forums. I propose the word "instance" to mean a shard specifically spawned for one character/group/raid, in which you will not meet other people. A interior is not an instance (you can meet others inside) and contains only friendly NPCs. A dungeon is not an instance and contains killable NPCs. --Glynnis 17:50, 2 June 2008 (PDT)
