Bring Back Twinks

You are killing twinks. Twinks have been around since the start, and you’re taking them away. You’re listening to people that take at least and hour to level up 10 levels and never go back to low level bgs, because they progress and get higher. So it’s confusing why now of all times you get rid of twinking, you guys never had a problem with it until now, you are killing us. You moved bgs for twinks to a separate category this Is what hit us first. You wont let us que for any bg, for 19-20 (29) bgs are the only one that actually works and those can take hours despite saying the average wait time is 20-30 minuets. It makes me sad to see us die like this…I’ve played this game since for awhile now… and i’ve gotten to know so many people that twink. They’re slowly leaving the game and it honestly just sucks. I know people quit and leave the game because of all sorts of reasons… but this reason is because twinks are pretty much dead now. My guild was the #2 most populated horde twink guild (NINE-Illidan)… and now I’m the only one who logs on every day. Twinks are a huge community…and we beg you, I beg you fix this. Bring us back, bring the people that take the effort to have fun in your game. Please on behalf of all the brackets of twinks.

I hope they stay dead forever

I also hope they do a level squish to compact you in with more people in your level bracket

Play a twink for a day or even a month, you’d change your mind I can promise you that

My ego isn’t fragile enough to step on peoples necks that might be under geared and total noobs trying pvp for the first time

I don’t think I’ll need to play one ever

I can also stroke my ego enough in normal battle grounds

I did once, it was no fun at all. I prefer a challenge than easily beating people that cannot fight back. Back when the rogue backstab glitched out and allowed twinks to 1 shot people no matter the lvl difference in the bg’s I did it for 1 match and waited until they fixed it. because again 1 shotting people is not fun for pvp.

It’s a myth that most twinks want to fight other twinks. A few maybe, but most just want to be able to beat people that can’t fight back.

For any curious I leveled my rogue out of that bracket he was in after a week of trying to fight other twinks and most of them running away from an equally geared player in that bracket.

You may have not had fun but a lot of the wow population does have fun. Or did anyone until blizzard decided to randomly blindside us man… and the so called “Myth” Isn’t actually a myth at all, twinks actually fight twinks all the time in bgs.

  3. ???
  4. Allow twinks into XP-on queue.

Sounds like you’re just looking for an advantage against undergeared players.

There is no advantage. What do I earn? Honor that means NOTHING anymore?

Your statements do not make sense. If there are actually a lot of people having fun twinking in BG, you would not have the problem of long-queuing time now they are restricting twinks to fight only against twinks.

And if you actually enjoy fighting against twinks, well, now you can actually do it properly! Without the interference of the un-twinked.

Plus i’ll likely never see them again after like 2 bgs, due to the fast leveling process :wink: so to me i dont have a specific reason to kill “Under geared players” I just do it to have fun, to fight other twinks, the little guys dont really… bring me joy, unless i fight like all of them at once? I dont really know Lol

What do you earn otherwise?

Normalization of gear would still allow some gearing advantage, plus you have an advantage in knowledge within the bracket. It’s just minimizing the advantage.

twinks are essentially the Advantage Gamblers of WoW. very few of anyone will tolerate players with any perceived advantages matched versus them and so it’s highly unlikely you’ll find any favor for twinking in this forum

Ah you again… Blizzard shut us out. The first wave as i mentioned is sad. but the truth, they hit us with other waves as well, an example would be the enchant squish, along with buff squish, and they called it a bug for awhile the long periods of time we have to wait… IT makes no sense they are killing are fun like they are killing other things in the game… Think about this… Twinks have fun! But… Blizzard is talking it away… for what seams to be people that cry to blizzard and then move on to another level then to max within a week.

I didn’t ask for advantage in this forum or even salty people (Not calling you salty). I just want to find people to…agree with and point out some facts and to just get blizzards eye… A lot of people want twinks back. Just because you don’t doesn’t mean others do!

Face it the twink players want an unfair advantage over other players that are passing through the leveling brackets. The biggest complaint was them not wanting to be put in a separate queue with other twinks. My opinion is nope nope your grinding months of low level gear hurts the player experience of many versus your few twinks in the game pop.

Hurts? How? It’s been here since vanilla… Its been here and has been a player experience since the beginning. Taking it away would ruin one of the last things that a player experience has left. Slow leveling is gone. Having joy as you get an epic blue is gone… twinking… is the last thing that a new player that is a low level… has left. when the die they make an effort to destroy us twinks… and talk to there team. YES TALK!

The queue time is based on the average wait time of the previous group.
…that “previous group” could have been 3 weeks ago.

If it was as popular as you want people to believe, there wouldn’t be an issue with queue times.

and a lot of people (including Blizzard) want them sequestered… as they should be.
