Yesterday i was questing in borean tundra.
There was a horde paladin there to doing the same quest, (pvp server).
Well, it was obvious we both were not in the mood for a fight so we just ignored eachother.
Well i pull 3 mobs, get my treants up, and then do a hurricane.
This retard dude walks TROUGH my hurricane with 50% health, because im on a pvp server the hurricane hits him. My treants already killed the mobs so they attack him ><.
They got him down to 10% and the they went gone, haha. I did a /sorry and kept questing :D

This was during leveling in Northrend. I had gotten a group of guildies, and we tried Old Kingdom (being 3-4 levels below, but still).
Our party was:
Warrior tank, Druid Healer, Druid DPS(me), Warlock and Mage.
We pulled two groups at once, the healer gets gibbed, so does the warlock, mage and then the warrior. (quite swiftly)
So, while the mobs are running towards me, I pop Rebirth on the healer, enter bearform, and start tanking them away. Once the healer pops up, I toss him a quick Innervate, and resume tanking. I pop every talent I have (Berserk, survival, etc) and the healer starts tossing away heals.
We win. Against two groups of elites four levels higher than us. Then we calmly res rest of the party and go "Just another day in Druidism".
And not to mention the countless times I've taken over tanking after the maintank died (like in heroics). I love my feral-druid.

My best druid moment was when I was about level 38ish. I was questing in Stranglethorn Vale and this ? Bloodelf Paladin was constantly trying to kill me. He would attack me, I'd hit travel form and head for the water and shift into sea lion form to get away. Finally he got me where I wasn't near the ocean and only had a big lake to swim in. I went to the bottom and he followed me and was swimming around underwater for quite some time. Just for giggles I cast my root at him and it actually stuck. What made it the best was that he was on his way to the surface for air... but rooting him made him drown. He left me alone after that.

I'd just gotten my Kara key earlier that day and my guild calls me in to main tank it. Things going fine, until someone says they have the urn to summon Nightbane, at the time much tougher than Prince. We all think this isn't going to end so well but we'll give it a shot. I do my job main tanking, no one's even close to me in threat, I pop to caster form and hurricane down the adds. I innervate an oom healer and shift back to bear to tank him when he lands. Second healer gets caught in the fiery earth and is killed. I hit my tank trinkets, barkskin, and pop out while tanking to combat rez. He flies off, I hurricane down adds again. By this time 6min is passed and I innervate another oom healer. We down him shortly after third landing, and GM declares me the MVP for the run. Bonus 500 DKP.

When doing 5-man dungeons, I really feel the awesomeness of a Restoration druid.
The fact that you can heal with two great AoE heals to keep the HP up for all, and even just put Rejevenation + Lifebloom fast to keep up the HP.
Along with that, we have a few lifesavers such as Swiftmend & Nature's Swiftness (+ healing touch of cause ..)
We can CC a bit as well, and survival will always be a Druids first priority, no matter which spec you are. :)
Also, when it comes to Arena they are probably one of the best healers. (They were at least in TBC)
The ability to heal fast and go to Dire Bear Form never fails, and with the new spell power update, Restokins will rule Arena. :)

Hmm.. Moments where I felt a druid was awesome.
1. Void Reaver.. We have 3 tanks with us, Feral druid (me) and 2x Prot warrs, we are supposed to cycle due to the Threat reduction hit.. Cant remember the name. But.. I end up tanking from 90-10%, I dodged almost all the hit there was supposed to reduce my threat. Warr picks up last 10 % due to alot of hunters MD'ing to him. So it was all good. :)
2. Another time against VR.. For some reason we have 3 prot warrs with us, so Im going dps. The tanks tps aint that high, so accidently some of the mages are overaggroing, which just screw it up even more.. Even I overaggroe, but I just go bear and tank for a few secs, then I get a "threat reduction hit" and then I can go all out on VR after.. We get him down 30 secs before the enrage, and I am serveral % in front on Dmg done.. If you missed it, the druid awsomeness was that we can just go bear as feral, and many times we can survive.. Me overaggroing actually helped the raid. Due to it being right before the reduction hit, and serveral dps had been killed if I havent done it.
3. In pvp after 3.0 patch.. 3 rogues on me, and I just pop beserk, Survival Instinct, Enrage and Frenzied Regeneration. My mangles are now hitting ~1,3k or more.. (Cant remember) when not critting, and I have enough rage for em all due to 3 rogues hitting me. The rogues can't be that great geared, but still I felt the druid awesomeness there.

I have no pre-WotLK moments, really, as I made my 76 Druid along with wotlk release.
However, we were doing Old Kingdom and we happened to pull about 3 groups of the casters, right before the third boss. lik 8 casters and like 4 elementals. I was there as feral dps, and the makeup was healing priest, protadin, warlock, and shaman.
When we pulled so many, I went bear and grabbed a couple and tanked them. When the healer went oom, I innervated. When the entire group was close to death, I used Tranquility. I threw acouple of heals on the MT, and then shifted into cat, attacked a few times to get some mana back (from both JoW and Imp LotP), and healed some more.
I dpsed, tanked, and healed all in one pull, and I pretty much saved the group from failure.

My best moment was healing BF post 3.0 with 4 DK's. They hit a mine and i was able to save them but then they pull the whole hall and i hit wild growth and tranquility then keep lifeblooms(Gift of the Earthmother and glyph of lifebloom ftw) rolling on all of them cuz everyone was pulling aggro
Next was dueling a DK for about 10 minutes in tree form till he /sit and told me to end it and let me starfire/moonfire/hurricane on him tell he died. i used those cuz i love raining destruction from the heavens

Soloing elites my level or better is always fun, but I just LOVE the moments when 1 or 2 horde try to kill me (sometimes whn i'm low) and I end up killing at least one sometimes both, happened a few times so i'm not gonna point out any particular one (& I cant really remember)
My favorite moment so far was when the holy priest with +890 to healing and then there is me with only +750 to healing in tree form. The priest wasn't able to keep the entire party alive on a normal mob. I stood there in caster form to do some dps and I didn't bother to heal because I wanted to see if he could do it on a normal mob. I am talking about a difference of +140 to healing and he still wasn't able to keep everyone alive. Our group made him change characters to a dps and I started healing the instance. People don't understand that trees don't need as much +healing to heal as well or better than a priest.
Well its true trees don't need as much +healing to do ok but seriously both of you had rather low +healing so i can see how the priest had trouble
