If they had 5 man rated BGs, you'd have a point.
are you saying you don't have 9 friends?
I'm not. I sometimes have 9 friends on. Sometimes they don't want to PvP.
Sometimes I don't have 9 on. (looks at guild activity, glares at Muffindiving)
Most of the time I just want to log in and PvP. At this time, I prefer random BGs. I've had my fill of RBGs. They are fun, but not the type of fun I want right now.
If there is a few people in my friends list who want to PvP they come. If not I solo queue.

premade vs solo-queue
Premades go against premades so guess there's no issue. Neither of us have problems solo queuing, premades are just a scapegoat for bad players.

other than when you're the solo fill on a premade group, going against a premade group, you know that the healer is only going to give love to the people on their premade team, or you may even get kicked/deserter for discussing a strat that they disagree with.

Those are bad teammates. They would be bad regardless if they were in a premade or not.
That's the type of healer that will choose a well geared person and run around pocket healing them during the BG instead of going where they are most useful.
Hey are they called solo queue battlegrounds or casual battlegrounds?

is that what rated is for?
Rated is for people who want to test the limits of their skill, they don't necessarily need to be friends to be on a team lol.
solo queue battlegrounds
hey thats a really good idea, we should have a separate solo-queue bg mode.

upper levels of rated sure, but yolos are not upper levels of rated, they are just premades vs premades.

rated is for you to gain rating and have your performances ranked against others who desire the same. Just in case you're still confused, rating is assigning a value to something based on a particular scale.
what about YOLOs? they play in rated queue with little chance of gaining rating, its mostly for the fun and socialization right?
Most people that I know that do rated/have done rated got 1700-1800 doing only YOLO rated...this includes myself. 1800 might not be 2k+, but it's enough to get you the transmog. I'm afraid I'm not going to agree that you have "little chance of gaining rating" in YOLOs.

YOLOs are premades of 10 who ALL WANT TO BE RATED/RANKED AGAINST OTHERS.
Casual premades are 2-5 people who want to PvP together, and have zero interest in having their performances rated and being ranked against others.

Starting to see why you don't have a lot of people to socialize with inside World of Warcraft.

I think the ability to solo queue into an MMO has done enough damage to the game and community...don't need to make a bad problem worse.
..this includes myself.
funny, you don't have the achievement for it.
but it's enough to get you the transmog.
isn't the 1800 req new for BfA?
YOLOs are premades of 10 who ALL WANT TO BE RATED/RANKED AGAINST OTHERS.
the last yolo i was in the group lead made sure to express to everyone that it wasn't a serious group.
Casual premades are 2-5 people who want to PvP together, and have zero interest in having their performances rated and being ranked against others.
in theory, but those groups still cause problems for solo-queuers, even unintentionally.

no you aren't.

you can only say thats true for PVE content though. PVP has always been solo-queable ever since the first queues in vanilla.
apples to oranges my dude.
lets do some premades!

The 1800 requirement for the transmog was a requirement in MoP. I'm not sure before that, honestly.
So because you were in 1 group where the leader said this isn't serious business, that invalidates my statement? Boy the holes we can shoot in all of your posts because "it happened that one time".

https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/character/wyrmrest-accord/safetyjosh/achievements/player-vs-player/rated-battleground[/quote]that's from 4 years ago.
but more importantly, why aren't you following naming conventions for RP servers?

premades galore. whatever faction you play..if you play solo..just take a break. pvp is turned on its head.
honor bonus has brought out the groups.
It's more like rated bg's
I mean you have btag friends right ? Why not just group its fun ?
