Wow, all these posts about twinks ruining BGs

I believe it is much less popular than you were lead to believe. The only popular brackets are 119s,19s, and 29s, potentially 39s. The other brackets don’t have enough twinks in them for their own seperate queue, especially the higher levels like the one this character is in.

I read “And it’s repulsive. It happened prior to them un-separating twinks but nowhere near that often.” wrong and read it as it happening prior to them separating the twinks. Regardless, it happens with or without twinks.

Survival hunters oof were extremely tough to deal with.

And why did its popularity dip so sharply? What happened to cause that?

I can see how you read that, I probably should’ve cleaned it up more.

I remember the shield slam one shot too everyone switched to warrior back then.

How did it die out? I’m not the best expert on that. But I believe it had something to do with some sorta queue bug mixed with what I would imagine people getting bored fighting the same players all the time. the lower brackets never would deal with this(they are always popular) as its fairly easy to create a new character at that low level. But at the current popular twinking bracket I imagine much less new faces appeared and as people moved on it died out.

Heh… it died out because twinks were put into their separate brackets, away from levellers. I was around. I saw it happen.

Wrong.

Brackets were still striving.

Well of course, as I said its not as popular as you were lead to believe mainly at the higher levels. They WILL die out due to lack of people queuing in a separate bracket.

Not nearly at all brackets tho

especially as the years went on.

At the time twinking began to take its biggest dip? My older played one himself, I know when it started happening. QED: Twinks exist to farm the defenceless. Usually. Generally the #9’ers.

The queue was borked due to the Battlegroup system. Some players who transfered to the same selected Battlegroup were getting pops.
Others, like myself would have 20+ players in Vent queued without pops for years.

Lol, people not twinking at higher levels does not translate in “Twinks exist to farm the defenceless”

You mustve not played 85s.

Yeah they def were all about gy farming :roll_eyes:

Indeed, Upgraded Sunlutes ftw!

If that’s not the case, why so much opposition to having their own separate queues again? What was wrong with that system?

I do not wish for this character to never have queues, especially when there is no good reason for it not to. The 109 bracket is fairly balanced.

If twinking is popular enough on its own without the appeal of farming levellers that it needs so much attention, why would you have to worry about that?

We’re going in circles again.
