Working Summoning Stones

Yes I realize that the summoning stones were not a 1.12 working item. But taking into consideration the extremely bad vanilla graveyards, flight paths and only having a warlock to summon, maybe this could be reconsidered?

I will wait here to either be told yes the yare working and be happy or to be flamed by a bunch of extreme blizzlike ragers.

Thanks,
Chritz

There are no "Summoning Stones" in Vanilla - they are "Meeting Stones".
Their only purpose is to indicate that here's a dungeon. You can't summon or join LFD or anything similar.

So yes, they are indeed working (as intended).

No they actually allowed to find other people and automatically group with them.

Meeting stones in Vanilla did NOT allow to summon players.

But as said above, they were indeed some kind of (crappy) LFG system. You could queue with them and you would be automatically grouped with other players queued too. There were little to no distinction of the class roles - to be confirmed.
