Unfortunately for me, I just decided to make a 19 Twink and after finally gearing him out and expecting some good Twink on Twink action, I was whispered and told that as a 19 Twink, I would never get into any WSG. I wondered why and gave it a shot. I sat in the WSG queue (XP off) for upwards of 4 hours without so much as a hiccup. Twinking has been killed, slaughtered, nerfed, destroyed. While I didn’t exactly want to go in and senselessly kill undergeared players, I did expect at least some sort of action as I thought the Twink community was pretty active. Guess I was wrong, which sucks. Oh well, back to mindless raiding on my 80′s.

@escador Learn to read noob, they are complaining because they CAN'T get a bg to fight other each other.

Escador is an idiot, first and foremost. Now on to the reality of the subject. I was excited about the idea of not having to be in a bg with a bunch of low levels, essentially giving me zero chance to win. I was excited about the idea of facing stiff competition with a group of people who knew what they were doing as opposed to running around blindly. I was excited about the prospect of twink vs. twink action. In the 1 battleground I’ve been in since the patch, that’s exactly what I got. Unfortunately, that’s all I’ve been able to join. Blizz has effectively killed twinking. After spending 1.5k gold on a Staff of Jordan and several hundred more on Underworld Bands, I feel like I’ve been ripped off of my time and effort. The only way to fix this is to put all players with xp turned off into the same battlegroup, giving us a bigger pool of talent to draw BGs from. Also, Escador, I gained no satisfaction out of killing greyed out lowbies. I have zero interest in being in a battleground with low level players. I want competition that’s on the same level and gear as myself. I have a level 80 rogue and paladin. I only enjoy them so much. I want my 39 mage back and I want to do some horde slaughering.

I have a 39 twink resto druid on my de-activated account, which was ‘fun’ rubbing shoulders with usually 70% non-twinks. This meant for the average lvl-32 team-mate dressed in a couple of blues who would have been one shotted, lived to kill the twink he faced. Real twinkers do not make lvl-19 rogues to one-shot others, kids do who get pwned as they level lowbies.

It’s not a question of having to fight other twinks as they are the best and most fairest fights to have, its the fact that after 3.2 Blizz has taken away our ability to join PVP. I could literally wait 3hrs+ after work for a game and not have a single match. Im not asking for Blizz to put us back with the noobs, but to give twinks the option that once XP has been turned off, to free transfer to a ‘twinked’ battlegroup. This way twinks would actually get games and twinking would become extremely competitive. Until something drastic like this happens i will not be re-activating my account!

Normal players in low level pvp now get to play without fear of *TWINKS one hit killing them. Poor old twinkies now have to fight each other (aka level playing field) and are whineing like little bitches.

My heart bleeds….

* (average player who can’t cut it in lvl 80 PVP or arena so spends 2000 gold on a lvl 19 rogue and attacks their preferd target of lvl 10′s dressed in grey gear to try and claw back some self worth)…

I’ve got a level 39 twink, but since 3.2 has come out I’ve not seen a single BG action. I also have 19 and 29 twinks, wait times are 25mins on average, since only a single bg is available at any given time. I really enjoyed the competitve aspect of the 39 bracket, but it’s completely dead. I also have a level 59 well geared lock, who has also not seen any action since turning of xp. I find PVE boring, it’s static and easy, PVP was dynamic and exciting. Never kneww what to expect. I’ve cancelled my account and don’t plan on coming back to WoW unless they fix this problem.
