Let me explain for everyone wondering. Basically there are a few wow model editors who managed to extract all kinds of MoP / Cata items,mounts,spells and everything else. The items are imported in a database ,though they have no stats and they appear as '' ? '' therefore are only used as transmog gear. The mounts however do work and again need to be imported in the database of the server . Afterwards you need to have a custom MPQ (patch) clientside in order to view them and use them. All of the items were backported to Wotlk 3.3.5 . There's even a guy that backported every content from patch 4.0.0 - 5.2.0 to 3.3.5 - I'm talking about every map , new continent etc .
Is it worth it ? Not really ,unless you want everyone in your server to download more gigabites of custom stuff just so they can play on your server . Besides ,most people prefer blizzlike servers with sort of noob player friendly features or just fun features . Just imagine what would it be like having a 2.4.3 or 1.12.1 server with hairstyle changer and transmog and other fun things you can add serverside without having players to download additional content . Make the server rates 2x and players will play all day.
MoP and Cata mounts are just 291 MBs so it's not THAT big deal. Plus it's a choice, and no it's not to make people play your server, it's rather to give them motivation to vote/donate. At this point we need more votes, actual votes with the captcha requirement, at least that's my opinion to boost the ranking of the server and it can be useful elsewhere too.

I didn't script that nor do I know how and if the owner scripted it/paid someone to script it/bought the script directly. But I've played on that server for around 6 months and it was really nice to see these mounts. But yeah I don't know, as administrator, what programs they were running to get these patches.

Well isnt the tank denied from SF? Cos i know that many ppl offered big donations for it..The other ones are cool imo. Wasnt the zebra from arena or something ? :D

TBC has very limited mounts, titles, pets, etc. so we sometimes just keep things reserved so that we have future reason to add more, than run out.
