The stigma against twinking never warranted this

Spawnkill camp the RBG’s graveyard for 15 minutes instead of winning when you can easily do it in less than 1 minute?

Hey man, not everyone should have to hold your hand through every process of the game. Either play and have fun or not. But trying to force everyone to have day long ques is just dumb.

Back before when they seperated twink and regular ques, all it did was make it so nobody could join BGs at all.

People are leveling, not running end game content.

I’m still confused. Are you saying you can’t queue at all or that your queue takes forever, or something else entirely?

i’ve seen twink items for hundreds of thousands or up to a million+

so its farming or buying.

This is not an argument. They’re expensive because they’re rare, likely spanning across MANY expansions before someone equipped them because they dont even exist in the game anymore or have a .001% drop rate. Focusing on this context specifically, do you really think every single twink needed to save up hundreds of thousands or million+ for their twinks? lol that’s absurd.

And at the end of the day, I’m sure you and I could share many stories of achievements, items, mounts etc that we tried for hours to obtain and were nearly unobtainable.

its not skill its called dedication to something you love and enjoy

I guess these players haven’t played the game in the past 14 years or something then because BGs have always been notoriously one of the worst ways to get XP outside of herbing and mining…next?

It’s fun? Just like any other part of this game. If you can’t understand that…yikes

So you’re going to say you never played back then? 'Cause as a person who has every class at max and actively enjoys leveling and casual BGing, that was my personal experience.

This is partly why I’m here. I don’t post on these forums. I’m defending my friends who are so confused they’re desparate for explanations.

We can queue, but there is no avg wait time, and some of us have literally been in queue since the patch released this morning.

So far our solutions have been to duel each other while in group (most of us are on diff servers) and exploring war games. But BG queues, from what we understand, are not getting anywhere.

Please don’t ban twinks from queueing… I’d ask that you not restrict them to xpoff-only queues too. They pay as much as anyone else does and put as much heart into the game as others.

Death to twinks

Death to lazy people who want everything handed to them, complain about PvPing and refuse to learn how.

Nope, as I’ve stated to the past 8 people so concerned about my subscription time I buy in 6 month chunks.

If you want RBGs queues to revive you’ll have to kill the reason they’re not going anywhere: Twinks.

My personal experience was honestly faster queues, assumedly from a bigger pool of players to draw from. I remember going from 20min+ queues to something from 5-10, seemingly almost overnight.

Like it or not, twinks are a huge deterrent to what would otherwise be new blood.

Comparing it to endgame PvP is a little farcical, too, as there are ratings there to seperate the new players from the pros.

I support anti-twinking changes. PLEASE make the game good for newbies again, stop scaring them with 1 shotting!

You realize twinking has been in the game since its conception right? In vanilla, in BC… noobs have always been given the same opportunity as the rest of us to specialize in a bracket.

Wait, did they give twinks their own queues again? I missed that if so. And if so, thank god.

So if people lose bgs, they blame it on twinks now? Thats what im getting at, sounds like people complain about everything, is there really a major power gap between a non twink and a twink in a bg?

Except I’ve gotten 2k+ plus for the past couple of seasons, what you call pvp isn’t pvp you buy your victories with gold and garbage.

It’s actually funny that you believe it’s pvp
