Give us the old PvP system back - (Rip rank 14)

Hi Team Nostalrius / Community

I have experienced some big changes in the queing system. Now it seems like some algorythm have been implemented, so that only Premades vs. Premades > Pug vs Premade, unless no other Premade is avialable.

I think this is a very bad idea, because it makes it difficult to rank up now, i have spent so many hours of getting honor in the Battlegrounds, and now i will not be able to get rank 14 in the future because of the new system, it has made honor farming meeningless, since the Pugs will now get more honor than people who are premading since Premade games where both teams will try hard will last way longer around 20-60 min. and the pug vs pug games will now last until the 1st team caps the flag, and people will give up and let the 1st capping team win.

Also the que time in Premade Vs. Premade is significally longer.

To be honest, the way the system is now is neither working with the ranking system, because is it fair that people who spend 10-16 hours a day PvPing with premades should rechive less honor then people PvPing the same amount of time with pugs?

Also the way you changed the system is no way near the Vanilla spirit it's heading in the direction of Blizzard now with people whining on the forum, and only the people whining will be heard.

For future reference you should make some polls and see if people want the changes you are thinking about, ask your community about the changes before you make them, that would also help you maintain the servers good reputation.

I really hope that you will take my thread seriously and discuss weather or not what i'm saying makes sense to you.

People who strive to get rank 13 or 14 will never be able to reach their ranks, with the current changes you have made and some people might give up on their dreams and leave the game, because there is people who play the game mostly for the PvP aspect of the game, and the quality of that experience have skydived now, and may cause some people to leave the server and give the server a bad reputation due to that which would be a shame, since Nostalrius is what people missed about how wow once where. Many people have come here coz they are tired of Blizzard only listening to the people whining on their forums, how about the people who think things are fine? Do they just have to follow the winers and is their opinion meaningless?

Also think about all the bots that will apear in the battlegrounds / chinesse services making it impossible to compete with.

Just think about it, i made this thread in the population of the servers best interrest.

Yours sincerly

I agree on all said above.

Although I am done with ranking, it's unfair to any of the people who aren't. People actually got to know each other a bit, and playing in a premade with nine people you know who they are was fun. This is shit.
