The stigma against twinking never warranted this

Here’s the thing you, and a lot of twinks, seem to be missing - Some people just don’t want to twink. They might want to just hop into a BG for a quick game or two in between doing dungeons and questing while leveling, or gasp a new player may in fact want to try a BG to see what it’s like, only to be completely stomped by someone like you.

At the end of the day, low level PvPing was never designed with twinking in mind. It was designed as a way for low levels to, well, PvP. Twinking has always been a player-created method of play, and has never been outright affirmed or rejected by Blizzard, they’ve simply allowed it.

And they still allow it - they’ve just re-enabled the separate queue for people that have level-locked themselves, so as to not disrupt the playstyle of people who are using low level PvP as it was intended.

Maybe this’ll get reversed, maybe it wont. But for right now - and as you can probably tell - a lot of low level PvPers are pretty happy with this change, and franky I can’t blame them. PvP isn’t much fun when you’re getting destroyed by others in a low level bracket.

I mean, I can get expecting to gear up, learn strategies, and all that jazz at 120…But come on, you really expect all low levels to play your very specific, niche way when all they probably want to do is run a quick, casual BG? Whose the one being selfish and entitled here if you honestly think that’s the case.
