Long quests are questlines that are more than 10-15 steps long. Exceptional quests are quests that were memorable for folks while playing the game, or contain a significant amount of lore or world-related information that is interesting for players interested in the World of Warcraft. Hidden questlines are those that are hard enough to come by that most players never come across them in normal play. The list was spawned from a discussion on the Elitist Jerks forum, called Long, Hidden, or Exceptional Questlines.
