Hello Twinks,
some of you might remember the queue bug we had in early WOD. Whatever we did, games just wouldn´t pop frequently even though we had all that was needed to make a game pop. We had enough players on both sides, we had enough healers, we didnt group queue and we were only q'ing for WSG specific. Nothing helped. We tested it multiple times with the same depressing results of games just not popping or randomly popping after 2 hours in q.
What can I say twinks - attentive and dedicated ppl might have already noticed. We are back to this bugfest of a q. I think it is bugged for quite some time now but since level bgs popped anyways due to the huge amount of ppl, nobody cared enough to do something about it.
I can only speak for EU but I guess US is having the same problem (please confirm). We have tons of ppl in q on both factions, all q´d up for WSG, no grp q'ing and still the game just won´t pop. We get a random pop with almost nobody in q midday and after that nothing for hours even though 20+ ppl in q on both factions.
For those who need an explanation on how the queue should work:
-> You have 10 ppl each side q'ing up for wsg, at least 2 of them being healers = you get a pop.
-> BG ends, everbody q´s up again = BG pops
That is definetly not happening right now. I think we are in a crucial spot to get that fixed if we want our bracket to stay alife:
So what do we need to do? Last time when we had this problem we started a twitter storm because that seemed to be the most promising way to get their attention. And what can I say - it worked perfectly. They fixed the issue within 1-2 weeks. From that point on, we were able to q up with 10 ppl each side and games were popping like mad.

We can 100% do this again. It only needs some tiny effort. Open a ticket - and more important - Twitter them the issue about games not popping even though people are queueing up! Give them as much information as possibly. The casual standard answer you might get from others (and I am sure we have some doing that in this thread too) "bgs got separated, not enough people in Q". Try to be as specific as possible that the issue is NOT that there are not enough ppl in Q. I myself tweeted them and linked the tweets from 2015 so they can see that this issue occured in the past and they cared enough to fix it.
Right now we still have ppl playing on their 19s because there is quite some stuff to do with grinding etc. But that will get less and stop at some point. People need to see that bgs are popping. So in my opinion we should get that fixed ASAP!
Thanks for reading and please get your head out of your ass and take that 5 mins to do something about it. I thought about making a post on EU and US forums too but I am not sure if that helps because there you will definetly have to deal with braindamaged people not reading the post just stating that there are not enough people becaue bgs got separated. What do you think?
Edit: in case it wasn´t clear. Twitter @WarcraftDevs and @Holinka. If anyone knows others to include as well - pls Info.
