Here we go again: World of Warcraft has yet another frog problem. In the new Midnight expansion, players have found a spot where the frogs won't stop spawning. Unlike the previous frog exploit in Mists of Pandaria: Remix, these amphibians don't drop any valuable loot.

They do, however, have hides worth skinning at a time when everyone is racing to level up their professions, so players are grouping around the pond outside Silvermoon City to slay hundreds of frogs until their experience bars are satiated. These infinitely spawning enemy exploits happen frequently in WoW.

Blizzard uses technology that dynamically respawns enemies based on how many people are around, and it seems to break every now and then; it's also something it seems to be able to fix extremely quickly, so the frog frenzy won't continue for long. I wouldn't call this particularly game-breaking.
