After having 8 pops there was a couple of problems which didn't really tilt me until the last game:
Class stacking; though I understand there is a huge difference between meta and dog shit tier there is a huge amount of druids and shamans in the games and also arcane mages occasionally, something to bare in mind for future pugs or people who are going to join the bracket.
Excess healers; kinda explained this but at one point horde had like 7 healers in a game which isn't fun for the team with them or to play versus.
Queuing with higher levels; though a lot of people do this to troll - people need to understand that they get TERRIBLE stats and aren't worth it ever - also if you're doing it to troll you're a dumb green tea drinking fuck what is wrong with you - behavior like this results in plebmades happening and people being excluded which isn't good for the bracket itself.
Consumables; people were consuming on both sides the only real 'acceptable' consumable is the elixir from 300 alchemy - anything else swiftness pots, bombs, drums etc are all 'blacklisted' by the community and aren't used in pugs.
Gearing; on alliance a lot of people were running about with shocking gear it doesn't take long to update your gear majority of it is either boes or dungeon satchel gear - all of which are easily farmable. But I presume the undergeared people know this - but the bracket is so bursty having bad gear is really obvious.
People don't tend to use any of the tinker things on belt, no. It is looked down upon.Frag belt is a no go right?
just wanted to make sure
Also I do need to regear since i havent played since before they added the epics
I feel like class stacking was just what people had geared at the time maybe? We had a few people swap classes, but couldn't get all unfortunately,After having 8 pops there was a couple of problems which didn't really tilt me until the last game:

I thought that I saw you swap to shadow and holy to see if it would balance out the games and saw Kracks jump around a few classes also, just recall seeing 5+ druids for a few gamesI feel like class stacking was just what people had geared at the time maybe?

Yeah, I know a few people are gearing up alts now, myself included. So there should be more variety next time.I thought that I saw you swap to shadow and holy to see if it would balance out the games and saw Kracks jump around a few classes also, just recall seeing 5+ druids for a few games
