When you install World of Warcraft, it installs all patches, even the ones for expansions (yes even if your account is a vanilla account). It will take about 15 gigabytes of disk space to install WoW.
World of Warcraft expansions must be paid for to use them.
Right now, World of Warcraft takes about 14.5 GB; however, this amount does increase with screen shots, user interfaces and futuer patches and expansions.
The original game is about 1.2GB without patches or expansions. However, you cannot play the game like this. You have to be up to date to connect to servers.
No, there are no cheats available for World of Warcraft or any of its expansions.
World of Warcraft patches are small changes to game mechanics, additional quests, bug-fixes and other things along that nature. Most of the time, patches are to fix bugs in the code or to adjust the damage or healing certain spells do. Patches should not be confused with expansions. World of Warcraft expansions (ie Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, and Cataclysm) are major changes to the world and sometimes additions of classes or races (ie Dranei and Blood Elf races in BC and Death Knights in Wrath of the Lich King).
Nearly every person who plays World of Warcraft will buy the expansions at sometime in their WoW career. They do this because you need the expansions to level higher and explore new content.
World of Warcraft has a monthly subscription, regardless of which expansions you have installed. The expansions do cost money, but once installed you don't have to pay extra - the subscription remains the same.
World of Warcraft is a very big file, therefore it takes a lot more time. My fully installed WoW download, with all patches and upgrades/expansions are about 17.7 GIGS.With Wow PTR I have about 36.6 GIGS of WoW files.
Vanilla means from the original game, so the game without expansions or mods. Vanilla World of warcraft means everything that does not include the expansions. A vanilla World of Warcraft boss would be onyxia
the monthly fee is about 15 dollars a month for world of warcraft the expansions dont change that

Vanilla refers to the original World of Warcraft, without any expansions. It does NOT refer to Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, or any of the Warcraft RTS games (Warcraft, 2,3).
