Meeting Stones, also known as Summoning Stones, are very large thumb-shaped stones with a mystical, glowing symbol that appear next to instanced dungeons. Originally, they were for filling in partial (or just-starting) parties whose members met the required level range by auto-inviting suitable candidates.[1]
In patch 2.0.1, Meeting Stones were reworked with the implementation of the new LFG system. They now are used to summon party members to the stone near an instance. One player targets a faraway player and clicks the Meeting Stone, creating a portal. When a second player clicks the portal, the targeted player is given a summoning dialogue very similar to the warlock's 
[Ritual of Summoning] spell.
Notes[]
- Any character above level 15 can be summoned. This can be helpful if you have two friends somewhere far away that you want to join.
- "Stone etiquette" also generally assumes the two party members who can arrive fastest (by proximity or mount) should summon others barring obstacles. It is bad manners to keep the entire party waiting because no one is willing to interrupt their play and head over.
- The use of Meeting Stones is not limited to traveling to instances: they can also be used to summon players to convenient locations in the main world. For example, the Mogu'shan Palace Meeting Stone can be used to let a low-level player set their
[Hearthstone] in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, which is otherwise unreachable until level 30. - While Meeting Stones are present in Classic, they are non-functional and cannot be interacted with by players.
- While Meeting Stones are present in Burning Crusade Classic, they are subject to level restrictions. The player performing the summon and the player being summoned must both be within the level range assigned to each meeting stone. The assistant summoner, or "clicker", does not have to follow these restrictions. You can find the level range restrictions listed below.
