In WoW, with very few exceptions, towns are not safe zones.
Well, it's kind of a failure to forget what they were programming for. Did they allow you to be instantly killed as the level started? If so, that's trash design, and goes beyond programming errors.
No situation in Diablo 1 or 2 would have allowed for this.
I do have fond memories of getting stair-killed repeatedly in D1.
It usually went like this: "I wonder what's down these stairs... omgalksdjtalkdsraoieru! dead!" It's good to see D3 has returned to it's roots.
That being said... I think not having a safe-zone in town is sort of ridiculous. Sometimes, you just need a place to run to, to get away from invulnerable teleporting illusion fire-chains bosses.
