To wherever the twink thread went

Because Blizzard said so. There was a blue post a couple months or so back, talking about low-level PvP, and the policy was it’s not supposed to be competitive – hop in and play.

Moreover, if twinks can’t get queues to pop now, what makes you think they’d get queues to pop without levelers at all?

Sure sure. You built a twink then deleted him with a 50 character limit. More like you got beat repeatedly by this guy and rage screen shotted as if it shows anything other than him vastly out playing you in an RPG.

It highlights your name in the bg scoreboard, notice how the name is highlighted and doesn’t show the realm (because it’s my character).

Pretty weird argument you’re trying to make tbh.

Yeah i dont understand either… the argument still stands even if it wasn’t yours. Bait is all that comes to mind.

you think twinks “outplay” levelers? in what capacity? farming the ah for upgrades? gear does not equal skill dude.

I know how to fix this whole issue with twinks. Get rid of the ability to turn off XP. Problem solved.

This is an RPG. Building up your toon is part of your skill set.

Method won at least partly because they bought out multiple servers AH’s

I don’t understand how twinking is different from geared people destroying fresh 120s in a bg.

To be completely honest… in the long run yes this is the best solution. The outrage for the first year tho… oooooohhh :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Then you don’t understand plenty of how the game works, my friend. It’s alright though.

Please, help me understand then, you seem to know so much.

the thing is they could make templates and stay at 29 or whatever indefinitely. but to them that wasn’t any good and removes player choice. or whatever. so instead of lower queue times because they’re in the normal bracket with levelers with stats they don’t want they now have all the stats they want but have long queue times. idk i’d rather have a shorter queue time, personally.

The most basic explanation is this:

Twinking is old content.
Max level is new content.

Old content does not and should not allocate constant dev resources. New content is where things matter. Old content is there so everyone to enjoy, as is.

It really comes down to that. Nothing more.

Surely if it was as fun a thing to do as claimed, it would be popular enough to shorten the queue times.

I wonder, what makes it not fun anymore?

Sorry but the templates/scaling in legion (if this is what youre referring to) was awful. It was bland and made literally any piece of gear you got in pvp not matter at all.

Asking for a “fair fight” eliminates a huge part of the game which is gearing. There’s a middle ground somewhere and I think BfA has done better in this regard. Gear does matter and trinkets can have an effect on gameplay again but gear/ilvl itself isn’t the be all end all.

Fair fights exist, just get geared a bit and go into arena. The people who cried about fair fights seemed to be those unwilling to gear up for pvp but that’s always been a part of wow and MMOs in general. Buying gear with conquest to upgrade your character and perform better in BGs/“world pvp” was always fun and skill still played a fairly big role. Even now though, it feels nice to have gear matter a bit again.

Absolutely!

Twink=griefer

Blizz should and did step in

Besides, you got your very own que so you like minded players can all be together!

Another way to think about it : “The good of the many outweighs the good of the one or the few.”

Twinks ruin bg’s.

Of course you already know all this and don’t care.

Enjoy your 4 hour que.

Cya, wouldn’t wanna be ya

The good of the many outweighs the good of the few is communism.

Also, i’m not a twink, i don’t have one, and never have. Unless you count heirlooms and bags to level quicker.

I just stand up to an obvious wrong when i see it. Here Blizzard is PUNISHING people for liking something enough to devote ALOT of time and resources into it.

You would be quite wrong. All political systems have boundaries. Capitalism is not about a single person but rather a framework that allows an individual opportunity. There is no connection with this concept and a wow player abusing the system to grief other innocent players for their own personal enjoyment.

How you could possibly think that 1 player ruining the bg experience for every other player is a good thing is beyond reason.

Since we’re being contrary…

It’s actually seems to be giving players more choice. You can either twink or you can join a BG.
