"Three Mages form a PuG only to discover they share the ‘follow yonder star and drop off phat l00t’ quest."

1.
Mage one: buys his loot off the auction house (he buys RMT gold)
Mage two: pharms for his loot, thousands of Foobitzes die (the other two help)
Mage three: begs his loot off of his über guild
He spelled Nativity right. As right as you can spell anything in l33t. My l33tspeak and knowledge of WoW has gotten really rusty, so I'm not even going to try, but...
New guild! 60th level dwarf paladin leading. No humans. Must be master-level in production profession. Send tells to JollyManInRedSuit.
As part of a GM event, two players strive to reach a waypoint location before the servers come down for a character inventory. One is distracted because she's rolling up a newbie toon during the trip.
Level 60 Druid caught exploiting with 6 raindeer mounts and a lot of duped phat loot that he was distributing to lowbies.

Corporation J-zus sold out for 30M isk by lieutenant J-das in 0 space. Founder wows to return.

3 Mages quit the quest, since they have no healer, no tank, the quest is boring Fed-Ex trip, and the lewt is horrible.
The final expansion pack is released and all players are either stuck on level 66 and 2/3, or have their characters mysteriously ported to another server, minus all gear.

Hmm, if only someone would write a series of books and then create a virtual world based on that idea,,,,
After the aforementioned ganking, the player in question's guildmates blog extensively about the event in question and all events leading up to it and thereafter. This collective blog is widely read and interpreted and misenterpreted for years to come.

Nice. And...
Dan Brown writes a fictional book about hidden codes burried in the game that reveal various truths and lies about the game designers, publishers and major guilds. Many players take the book to be non-fiction and question their previous high-scores.
One evening, spontaneously, the LFG channel rings out with the cries of the other classes with repeated cries of "LF priest for XYZ and we gtg" ... it takes hours before anyone realizes that all of the priests across the whole realm got their long awaited server transfer requests answered and are now playing together on a new invite-only server.
St. Nick merrily headed his sleigh toward Maple St., wholly unaware of the stealthed rogues who had learned his pathing pattern via Thottbot.

It's not a Nativity scene, but here's a little piece of silliness I did a couple Easters ago with World of Warcraft.
I'm told a few folks at Blizzard enjoyed it enough to make it their desktop for the day. Goodness knows it was fun enough to make it - four years of Catholic high school will give one a pretty odd and borderline-blasphemous sense of humor.

Nope, I got it wrong. There is no language in which I can actually spell. But back to the story,,,

Mage #1 finds a bicycle
Mage #2 finds a car
Mage #3 finds a scooter and blowing his hooter
They follow yonder star.

Not to mention the end game (33 years later) which involves a nasty ganking and one hell of a rez.

@ Thomas
There was also the loaves and fish exploit that allowed one Mage to feed a whole high level raid party.

Due to a bug, NPC announces to player M4rEe that she'll get a new alpha-class character for doing nothing but it must be male.
J053ph becomes a crafter in disappointment.
