Bgs - dead content and insane queues for horde

Good.

Apes.

Sit quietly and hope I have the generosity to queue and allow you to PvP for a bit.

Itā€™s true, Alliance players donā€™t engage in pvp and I know this for a fact.

Final reporting before TBC hit: ironforge(dot)pro/servers-old/?locale=US
Actually has Alliance in the dominant position. Madness.

Final report before TBC hit, with PvE servers removed for your dense gatekeeping nonsense: ironforge(dot)pro/servers-old/?locale=US&realm=PvP-PvP%20RP

48-52, even closer than my rounding from before. Guess Horde have just pushed harder in TBC in PvE, too.

But here you go, seen you probably also discount PvP-RP realms from BG queues for some reason: ironforge(dot)pro/servers-old/?locale=US&realm=PvP

47-53. So yeah, not perfect 50-50, but definitely not enough of a difference to rationalize instant queues vs 30 minute queues, unlessā€¦

Alliance, as a general rule, do not engage in PvP. I am not saying there are no Alliance PvPers. All Iā€™m saying is that, as a faction to faction comparison, Alliance avoid engaging with PvP in all forms.

And then, as a second, separate, observation, purely from forum threads and in game chatter, the tendency is to point the finger at racials. As if that actually makes the difference in 95% of any PvP encounters. A reason I will continue to mock, because I and the majority of players Iā€™ve seen, are not even close playing at the level where racials make or break a match.

So phase 6 where everyone mostly quit is now your source.

Canā€™t wait to see where the goal post gets moved to next.

Get your friends to queue, too. Iā€™m an easy kill. I spend more effort making pointless arguments on here than bothering to be good.

Just donā€™t cry about how OP WotF is if you somehow lose to me.

If he was a lock and juked your kick to land a fear and your trinket was down from his coil and he needed to rely on that fear to kill you.

Then you pop WOTF and you kill him.

Iā€™m sure heā€™s blaming it on wotf.

The ultimate decision to abandon this orc warlock and boost a gnome one had a lot to do with BG wait times. I thought they would pop all the time with fewer in the queue on horde side but horde gets stomped by alliance so much no body bothers to queue at all.

I stated a fact. You said I was wrong, asked for the source. I gave you the source. You argued the source was wrong, because you were incapable of using the source yourself to go back a couple of weeks. I did that work for you. And now you project your moving of the goal posts.

I wish you luck.

Your source is based off a time where log activity is at an all time low, if you canā€™t see that idk what to tell you.

Fourth line on the page. Go ahead and read it. I, however, am done with your purposefully dense responses.

Iā€™m happy you are done being wrong.

fairly irrelevant as for even on a 50/50 situation
horde players will Q alot more than alliance regardless of population

Exactly what I have been saying, except with the primary focus on Horde instead of Alliance.

Youā€™ll get your wish in WOTLK when the entire playerbase faction transfers to Alliance to take advantage of EMFH, causing the queue times to flip flop.

Looks like you lost to me. You got bamboozled by the superior strat of the Alliance.

I am playing alliance for the fast queues.

I would love to play undead I just donā€™t have the patience for long bg queues.

Rerolled ally just before bwl came out. Best decision I made in classic

hardly anyone in my guild is queuing for BGs yet because weā€™re still grinding gear for PVE, and I assume a lot of people are doing the same. So yeah, of course queues are high

Have you considered gittinā€™ gud?

So much this. Game has been out for a week. So many people are not even level 70 yet let alone doing bgs.

Thereā€™s so much to do once you hit 70, give it a month and more people will be doing BGs.

I still think queue times will be long for horde but it shouldnā€™t be as bad.

And a 40 minute queue
