I'm not sure if this is a regular functionality or a bug, but...
Last night, Claviger and I were in PoK, about to port through the Overthere
stone. He was playing around and running into the stone while we were
chatting on the phone, and was telling me about how when he did that, once
in a while it would spin him around and push him back a few game-feet.
Thinking this was weird, I did the same thing, ran into the Overthere
stone...and suddenly found myself cast far away, over by the soul binder,
with 656 points of falling damage! When I told him this, of course he had to
try it out for himself, but he just got the same effect he'd been getting. I
tried it again, after I ran back to the stone, but couldn't reproduce the
effect.
Anyone else had this happen?

It happens all the time, it is damned annoying. It is particularly
annoying for a MA that is trying to corner a mob, and finds that he keeps
getting flung several feet out of the corner, thus turning the mob around
to face all the dps types that were smacking it in the back. Really
amusing when the mob is enraged...

A little diff here, but I've noticed, only near CB that when I'm low on
life, say around 0%-15% or so and Im zoning while running from a mob, for
some reason when I come into Gfay I have 25% life every time. Not sure if
it is supposed to happen or a bug or what.

Hehe!
Since DX9 has arrived.
My Ogre has bounced off open doors, rocks and trees. That is when he is
not climbing the door and putting his head through the roof while he was
trying to walk through said door.
While my Halfling has played ping pong with the PoK stones and bounced
off the hills in Steamfont.
Also zoned into an AFK character in PoK and got stuck. Followed the
/ooc advice of duck and jab finally got me free!
Finally my Dark Elf was rather surprised at being rebuffed by the
vendors in PoK some of whom sent him flying backwards, in one case off
the platform for 8 points damage. All I said was "do you want to buy"
