Twinks - Blue Tracker

#0 - Oct. 3, 2008, 1:02 a.m.

Ok so I know this comes up every single major patch, I know it's been happening for 2-3 years now, but this time it's really getting too me.

The twink player base in WoW is huge, just check out any battlegroup forum. All I ask and I'm sure tons of other twinks want to know as well.

Are we getting exp from BG wins, losses, kills in the next patch?

I see this posted on nearly every BG forum and quite a few realm forums. Not to mention the constant 'LOL TWINKS GETTING LEVELING IN WOTLK HAHAH NOOBS' in /2.

So all I'm asking from you (a blue poster) is can you please confirm/deny this. I just want to have a valid source of information to prove/complain about if it is or isn't true.

Thank you in advance for clearing this up (if you do).

Battlegrounds wins/losses and honorable kills will not award experience after the next patch, nor upon the release of Wrath of the Lich King. It could always happen somewhere down the road as we work to improve PvP progression, but there are no plans for changing this in the immediate future.

Q u o t e:
in reality it is most likely that no matter how many times you post about twinks you wont ever get a blue response.

Looks like it is being considered sooner than later...

Right. My post was made with Tigole's post in mind. Context is always important. He continues:

Q u o t e:
Please don't take this post as a promise. This won't be an overnight process. Not all of these things are set in stone and guaranteed to happen. It would take us a while to shift in this direction. But these are some of the current thoughts on the development team. I think it's important for you guys to know some of our thought process in regards to PvP.

When I say "not in the immediate future," I mean no time before, or relatively quickly after, the launch of Wrath of the Lich King.
