WowAce

that must be it, heh. my own fishing data being culprit, i did have a lot of it. purge old world, northrend is still very good :)

nope data is still really messed up, the probelm isn't coming from wowhead either, so it has to be custom data that's still in database for old world, it's mainly fishing that's a disaster. many zones showing nodes at 3.x coordinates even with a fresh wtf folder.

look at STV, hillsbread foodhills for very obvious issues. the database needs fixing.

Also i've been running wowhead looter all week, and uploading. but none of the dig sites i've dug are in gm2 in this update. i wonder if wowhead looter is even supporting digsite locations yet. cause i just deleted them all from my database with overwrite :\

so I'm hoping 1.8 resolves it as wowhead purged the bad data you probably grabbed in last update

more bad data all over world, but it's not on wowhead so something is wrong with database, look at northern barrens, fish nodes in middle of land that shoudln't be there, cannot verify same error on wowhead.

you know what, the data on wowhead is tainted by chinese players. just look at EPL or northern STV which clearly as bad data from CN wow showing nodes in 3.x locations. all the 3.x nodes are all over the zone messing it up. i had hoped wowhead would be smarter then that and ignore data. they cleared database but they are just throwing 3.x and 4.x data together. so you really can't trust the data at all :\

Edit

double checking, wowhead actually seems fine for STV, seems the problem is gathermate 2 data, i did overright, it's still putting nodes in bad paces on it's own

click on northern stv, and look at the sagefish schools in right place, along river, now look at them on gathermate2 in northern STV, it shows them all on land no where near water.. Not sure where the bug is, possiby the parser not knowing difference between zoomed out full STV view, and northern STV view..

i do suspect a little bit of both issues, wowhead having bad cn data, but also gm2 messing it up too. cause EPL still feels wrong to me. those chests in tyr's are always coming back on wowhead and have been gone forever. heck that's 2.x data right there. and the blood of heroes looks like 3.x data

the big problem is the mac client for wowhead hasn't been updated since like patch 3.0 (literally) and it installs a pretty non functional clint that cannot connectto update server, therefor it cannot install a current version of addon or client (if they even exist)..it was noting but a nightmare trying to get it to work, and i have a lot of data too. I just literally did EVERY quest in all the 1-60 zones on both continents. found tons of nodes that were in each zone that aren't on wowhead or gm2, and they ddin't get any of them, such a waste :\

ah edit, they fixed the client on 29th it looks like for mac
