Have Increased Que Times Made You Not Play as Much?

[Eveill]

I hate to say this after having geared 4 70's in the last 15 months or so but I am really disliking this bracket for no other reason than I hate the 11-13 minute ques I've been getting all year on the Allied Side. Times have gone from almost instant last year on the Horde side, now about 3-5 minutes. On the Alliance side they've gone from 3-5 minutes to 13 minutes for me.

Since I came back and took my BC account to Cata the number of players rocking full Sunwell gear has exploded. Warglaives are seemingly a requirement so you're not LOL'd at as a rogue if you don't have them. I have screenshots of 5 sets in starting position for BG oh and yes, Alliance rogues have more.

I ventured off topic a bit. With all this love, with all this devotion to 70's alts/mains why are the que times getting progressively longer? If there's more players, it should be shorter. Or is there just a much worse imbalance of alliance/horde than I think there is. It seems to me based on times alone that the ratio of players in the bracket is 60-70 Alliance, 30-40 Horde just based on the que times.

Bottom line, I'm getting increasingly frustrated with 70's if for no other reason than I'm sick of flying around Org/Stormwind for 10+ minutes all the time with nothing to do. I can't be alone can I? Are you playing your 70's less because of it like I am?

I've noticed an increase in Alliance queues too. I would think that it would go up considering everyone's frustration with Cataclysm. Nonetheless, I think it might just be the time of day or people simply aren't into twinking that much anymore.

when I queued yesterday at like 22ish and forward during the night I got more than 15 of the queuepops in under 1 minute, EU alliance

Indeed, same here.

Your queue time is solely based on your Battlegroup, i'm unaware of which server your on, or even which Region your playing on(US/EU), so you may want to look into that, and then choose a more popular server to move to , this would be the easiest solution to look into, if your on a decently populated Battlegroup then you may want to try queueing unting peak times if you're not already.

Horde queue's have turned to be more or less under a minute. I'm loving it.
