You, of all people, should know that isn’t true 
.
What about premades of 30-39? Surely SOMEBODY has to fill in those spots.
Making it a separate queue would eliminate the existence of “partial premades.”
Bro, which is exactly why I said here:
I’d say anyone who’s queueing as a raid group. At that point, if you’re queueing beyond 5 people, it’s a partial premade.
Separate anyone who’s queueing in raid groups (6+ players) into their own queue similar to exp off.

That is absolute bullcrap and you know it. I don’t know any Horde community doing that. In fact it’s only the usual suspects who love to claim real life threats over anything and everything who in fact do that.
Does SAS leadership not /afk out whenever they see me? Ask them yourself if you don’t believe me; I’d be surprised if they denied it to you.
They accept the queues. I have seen them say they won’t fight you. My response was: I sure AF will.
premades are why random bgs are a complete joke.

I have seen two Horde communities do it.
They’re just casual fun.
The only people taking them super seriously aren’t capable of making it in the dedicated competitive modes.
You mean the kind of “casual fun” that is ranked players queue syncing to roflstomp badly geared players, not actual casuals having actual casual fun.

Blizz already said it would make every effort to match premade against premade and has a system built to do so, however their disclaimer is that individuals who solo queue will have zero assurance of not getting in with or against a premade. Frankly, I think that would foster more participation in PVP Communities and PVP in guilds and re-build faction pride which is what happened during WOD and has been pretty much destroyed since Legion dropped imo. Premades are still on-going even with the 5-man party sync queueing. The system being used in TBH Classic at least attempts to match premade with premade. As to the “spies” to circumvent other premades, the only instance of that I am aware of was during the forum wars when the big divide happened in Hydra Premades. The hostile faction that broke off launched a 5 year campaign of harassment and griefing and sending spies to pretend to be playing WITH Hydra but were in fact telling the opposing premade the calls being made. Total cheating but all is fair in love and WOW, right? lol The primary leaders of that long pay-back campaign mostly are no longer subscribers to WOW.
They need to divide it up by entirely solo queue/matched premade 5 man parties/raids. Players meeting a minimum ilvl could choose to fill in the matched premade or raid group for bonus rewards.
sometimes you just want an easy game
Since when? 10 and 15 mans can queue full premades, but AV is still restricted to 5 man groups unless I missed something. Where did you come up with full 40 man premades in tbcc?
Not because you are in a premade but to protest your tactics used in WG . Which to be fair was not sporting at all .
SAS plays against SoD premades all day long ., in fact I think these groups play each other more every week than any other communities .

Yeah they do. But there’s very few active, and I mean active, communities of our sort left.

I’ll never forget the time I was in an Isle of Conquest with a few of my guildmates and I got into a half SAS premade and they tried to report me and friends AFK to get us instant booted because we were just existing and playing the game.
I mean, we’re all playing Horde, talk about not sporting. I can’t imagine malding that much over a game. 
you broke the flags in IoC so that the game can’t be played correctly. we don’t want people looking at us and thinking we are cheating.

Then maybe…don’t cheat?
Why would anyone afk out because they saw you?
Those were the days of standing out on the hill in front of Tarren Mill and South Shore for hours. Those were the days of Raiding Undercity and leaving a trail of skeletons across the city, Good fun those days. Now it seems more like a business.
