They don't exist!! Everywher ein Azeroth more nodes than you can mine pop up. You go to Outlands and have to fly around for 10 minutes before even seeing one. And no it's not a matter of someone else mining them. It happens ALL the time. At least all the time I've been there which is a lot recently.

Part of what you're seeing might be the 'tech' Blizzard has been using since tBC released, which is that spawns 'spawn' more frequently the more people there are in the area.
I'm sure that classic WoW is probably very populated atm, and Outlands not so much.

Mining was a pain for me in outland. Forget about it during prime-time. Had the best luck during off hours with few people around.

Thank gawd 2 out of my 3 paladins are dwarf!
Yeah, I noticed this as well the week after Cat came out. I understand Blizz "fixed" things to respawn so that the more folks in the zone, the faster the respawns. I noticed that it felt like Outlands had defaulted (or reverted back) to a 30-40 min respawn cycle. Used to do the loop around Zangarmarsh for a solid year before LK came out and although it's been a while, I remember waiting at least that long if not longer.
Very annoying.

I do too! (It's right there on my wish list under Lurikeen Bard.)
I hear they are too short to reach The Light switch though.

This person is horrible.
Her stale sense of humor actually made me sick.
However, it's a female on the interwebz, so I somehow seem affected by unseen forces.
The constant battle in my mind takes its toll from my somewhat normal well being.

Yeah, I've noticed that ore nodes take a very long time to respawn, to the point where I didn't really bother getting much ore in outland, and will just farm on my alts as they level. I guess Outland is going to be a wasteland now that people are trying to rush through it in order to get to Northrend (and rush through that as well to get to Cataclysm lands).
Northrend, on the other hand, has a lot of ore still, and respawns fast. And I was picking herbs in Sholazar Basin. I did a /who Sholazar, and got maybe 6 people, most of whom were probably leveling as they were mid-70's. The herbs respawned rather quickly, and I just stuck around the starting quest hub area and did a circle around that place and the mountain right behind them, and was finding herbs every time.

I agree 100% That joke was awful! People like her should not be posting and DoTing other players.
Anybody here got a cure poison? Where's a pally when you need one!
Oops.

I usually reserve my bad jokes for guild chat. I don't get any appreciation there either.

I think this is one of many examples of the Dev's robbing Peter to pay Paul; where they were to lazy to go to the trouble of adding new code instead they just took of from elsewhere in the game. In this case they took nodes from Outlands and moved them to the new areas with a different skin and ore.
They did the same thing with creatures, made them go extinct in some places, really moving them from old areas to new ones re-skin and adjusted the stats, they removed some factions like the Brood of Nozdormu, really used it as one of the new Cata factions etc...

I was going to add this to my sig, but I ran out of characters. 
I think it was the capitalization of the The Light to drive home the point that made the joke actually funny ... like no one was going to get it otherwise.

I to have just recently had the pleasure of leveling up a miner through BC content. HFP seems devoid of almost all nodes now as I usually get 3 nodes per full loop. Once I finally got over that bit getting adamantite seemed quite a bit easier as I could fly around nagrand/blades edge and get quite a bit.
