On Twinking: Addressing Misconceptions

Tried it and didn’t like. Bgtargets still works which I use to my advantage.

Good job focusing on anything negative to bolster your “argument”.

I thought you didn’t care?

Anything to keep the thread bumped.
Seems to be a common occurrence in these threads prime time NA.

I just want to add that all this talk of twinking has me interested in multiple levels of twink.

Dual boxed 19s for boomkin and maybe an 85 warrior or spriest since I really got into the game in cata and can run myself through heroic ds.

70, 80, 85, have so many PVP season sets which are viable options.
The PVP Power and Resilience stats have been recently converted to useful stats
( Versatility stacked) . Well worth taking a look at for comparison purposes.
With some Honor Tokens you can be set up with Armor, Weapons and Gems instantly.
Off pieces (Trinkets etc.) can be bought reasonably cheap at vendors for gold.
Nice option for functional Transmog farming too.

No one said they have lol. I don’t want twinks removed from the game. Remove them from the normal bgs into their xp off queue. All power to them in there.

Kanajana-sargeras · January 10, 2019, 7:00am

Jugajr should be a politician can make spin out of any given situation to make it look good lol.

Floyln-tichondrius · January 10, 2019, 7:04am

Yeah posting her actual stats while leveling through BG’s is so dishonest.

Kanajana-sargeras · January 10, 2019, 7:08am

It is ok to joke on this forums is it Floyin? Just wondering or can I have your permission.

Lets spin this another way. Twinks could arguably be considered anti-rpg.

New gear comes out that makes old gear obsolete with each patch/expansion. Twinks have decided not to continue on the traditional RPG gear treadmill and park themselves at a certain level with the BiS items.

That goes against the RPG philosophy in this game.

You will love the 80’s bracket!
It is fairly well balanced, and some super nice folks.

Jugajr-emerald-dream · January 10, 2019, 10:51am

Well yea. Not hard when I actually enjoy the game

Juga-hyjal · January 10, 2019, 12:32pm

I am actually running for city council next year.

Reporting people because you don’t like what they say can get you a forum time-out.

People saying things you don’t like has never been against the CoC/ToS. Caveat lector.

Ripinpeace-dentarg · January 10, 2019, 4:44pm

EDIT: No idea why it posted under this toon.

And yet despite this supposed disdain for stomping on levelers, you keep doing it. Very brave of you.

Lunestra-gorgonnash · January 10, 2019, 5:55pm

Most of my responses are tame. However of course I’m not perfect and when you have 90% of your posts flagged and constantly harrassed… What it boils down to is this: I believe twinks should have their own bracket like they did before. If I was a twink I’d want to fight other twinks. I fully understand that there are people who love to have a huge advantage over others but this type of gameplay (imo) is toxic to everyone but the twinks.

Drathiel-gilneas · January 10, 2019, 6:31pm

No, most of your posts are negative or deliberately fishing for responses.

You got flagged because you’re harassing people. I didn’t flag you, but evidently enough people disliked what you said to get some stuff hit by mods.

And some people in this thread imply they wouldn’t mind this.

And once again, plenty of folks in here who didn’t mind it being that way before.

I also fully understand that you’re painting everyone with one brush. I’m not sure if you’re simply incapable of grasping the concepts given here (especially in OP) or if you simply won’t accept others’ views, but you’re being ignorant.

How does it impact the game overall? Twinking doesn’t matter unless you yourself intend to twink, because you’ll naturally level past the twinks.
There you go again, implying many things about a lot of people in this thread, let alone twinks as a whole. Your delusion to enjoy, I guess.

Lunestra-gorgonnash · January 10, 2019, 6:37pm

I’ve had posts flagged that by any metric would be seen as completely neutral. I wouldn’t be surprised if this one gets flagged. lol

Lunestra-gorgonnash · January 10, 2019, 6:40pm

This argument is bad. I know you think im being a meanie but actually read what I just wrote. The argument is bad. Saying that something is acceptable simply because it will only affect you every time you bg until max level? Then saying “well it doesn’t affect the game ‘overall.’” Come on. A lot of things don’t “affect the game overall” that still need to be changed. You can make this argument for raiding, for m+, for pet battles, for any aspect of pvp. “Well X doesn’t matter because it doesn’t affect EVERY aspect of the game” Bad argument.

Shadownholy-spinebreaker · January 10, 2019, 6:53pm

She said before not all twinks probably feel this way, are you purposefully misrepresenting her? Then you insult her implying she’s incapable of understanding. I think the term for some of you is crybullies. Bully someone while crying that you’re being victimized.
