Nothing is going to change about twink queuing, we had this song and dance when Wrath was on the way.

They dont need to separate the queues. You can also get gear to be strong in your pvp bracket.
Dont joint a lvl 10-19 bg at lvl 10 and compain about the lvl 19 who 2 shot you. You also have the option to seek gear before you go into the bg, just as you have the option to level to 19 (or closer to it) before you join.
All twinking is is being as geared as possible for your level. Should we separate people with full pvp gear at max level to queue only vs others with full pvp gear? Then what happenes to those who have pvp gear with a few pve bis added in?
They put the time in and got geared. You have that option as well. And there is also counterplay to it. You can CC them and dot them and kite them, etc.

Yeah, a 19 twink 2 shots a level 19 as well.
You might as well just say ādonāt joinā. Which is, quite literally, the consequence of not separating the queues.
Except this has been confirmed before to not be true.

Do you jump into arenas in greens from leveling and expect to win?
Thats the mindset you are having vs twinks.

OK, I guess levelling through BGs in Wrath was just a fever dream I had.
Or something.

Do you artificially lock yourself to a certain level or do you progress to the max before you enter arenas?
My mindset vs twinks is simply not to bother cause thereās no point. Iāve been down that road and Iām not gonna enter that toxic cesspool.
Origional wrath had over 10 times as many total players. The devs took into account the lower number of players for wotlkc for that announcement.

Alright, so Blizzards claim was a blatant lie since it was 100% untested in classic.
Gotcha, thanks I guess?
Doesnt matter. The mindset of āi have done almost nothing to increase to character power but should still win, why am i losing?!ā Is the mindset you have.
Dont want to lose to a twink? You have the option of getting better gear.

/sigh
If I ādid something to counter itā I would literally halt my character development.
Or simply just not playing into their toxic antics and not queueing. Getting better gear is simply not an option without xp-locking.
And since the queues are mixed, here we are.
Noā¦ do you not understand that they have the data of player population, pvp participation, etc from then and now?
And it wasnt a lie that it reduced the pvp activities back then either. I noticed it as queue times (which were very fast back then) nearly doubled.
Original Blizzard wotlk team knew better. They separated the queue for good reasons. While most twinks stopped playing, most because they couldnt stomp other players anymore and others because of the resulting low activity, the overall leveling battleground quality and activity went up by a significant amount.
Of course the twinks were against it, back in the day same as today. However, the decision to remove twinks from the queue revitalized the battleground activity and resulted in more new players trying and actually enjoying battleground pvp.

Gasp, separating queues increasing queue times?
Who knew?
But that wasnāt their claim was it?
OK, so a fully kitted out level 19 twink is enjoying all the content the game has to offer, gotcha.
Heās not purely there to stomp the poor guy tumbling into a BG, no sir.
Why am I not surprised this is another part of the game you donāt have a clue about?

What do you think about the quality of comments of the current classic wow team? They do not even know, when RDF was introduced (they claim it was 3.3.5 for some reason) and claimed for the longest time that the community does not want it.
The Blizzard classic team also says that the wow token helps against RMT, while it is effectively the same RMT outcome.
I cant imagine anyone honestly believing or trusting anything the Classic team states.

The wow token does help fight the rnt in the sence it makes a ātop lineā that the gold farmers have to stay under in gold per dollar value in order to keep people using them vs using the offical wow token. Essentially it reduces their profit margin. It doesnt remove rmt issues, but it does reduce it to a degree.
Now i do not think the wow token is effective as the gold sellers were already competing vs eachother, but thats the logic behind the wow token harming gold sellers.

For all intents and purposes, you need to for twinking. Cause itās not a logical way to play the game whatsoever.
Fun is subjective and isnt always logical.
