Alterac Valley Never Pops (51-60 Bracket)

Obviously Que times depends on BG population. But I have tried to play AV on this toon for about a week and it always says "UNAVAILABLE" for last game. WG, AB both "pop" normally. I have sat in que for well over 1 1/2 hours during primetime and nothing.....

Has to be something more than lack of players... never had this problem before at this bracket on other alts.

Q u o t e:
Actually, it almost certainly is a lack of players.

With the expansion right around the corner, a lot of players just aren't playing at all, let alone queuing for low-level BGs.

This encompasses the situation nicely.

I've been rushing to level a new 80 recently myself with a friend, and we have been experiencing the same unfortunate "endless" queues. Your best bet for the time being is to queue for the battlegrounds featured on the weekends as they are much more likely to "pop" during that time. In addition, battleground queues can vary quite a bit from battlegroup to battlegroup, as well as per bracket, so test out which ones you find are more popular on your set of realms. Remember that if you move in brackets, others may be queuing for a different battleground than the one previous.
