I) camping
2) gear-jerks
You basically described why I stopped playing Alliance at 20, as that's pretty much what you'll encounter over the pond.
The fact that the Alliance rewards scream 'Leather boy!' (and not just because of the BFD legs looking like chaps) may have something to do with this (the more Hunters/Rogues, the higher the chance camping is attempted or worse it seems, both XP-On and Off), but I got sick and tired of basically every game having at least one guy in chat whining he wanted to farm, and ragging on newbies - who, as you say, have a more 'legitimate' claim on the bracket (which is also a reason why fielding a 24 XP-Off toon is so lame).
The plus side however is that whenever they don't succeed in camping (and I tell people to immediately say it when it happens/looms, so the gy can be cleared again by help from those elsewhere), Alliance tends to fold pretty badly. You can thank Blizzard for making Hunters so OP and making the WSG map even worse for not teaching people how to play.
As far as the whole 'well people get ragged on because of no BoA's so it's okay': no that doesn't make it okay.
While it's one of the annoying side-effects of dumbing down the game and doling out gear that makes a crapload of the content irrelevant is luckily a mistake that other designers haven't made, if people don't e.g. heal my toons because they're in Blues iso looms, it's their loss, and personally I don't mind losing XP-On games anymore as a lost game gives more Honor/XP bar (rediculous as that design may be).

Alliance has a far easier time getting gear, especially for the problem classes, than Horde
(while pretty obvious from WoWhead alone, it's also my personal experience), meaning that in a PUG environment Alliance tends to have the gear advantage, resulting in (attempts to) camp and (a lot more) ragging on genuine Trial players.
It's silly to compare twinked-out Horde toons with twinked-out Alliance toons, because of the simple reason that outside the artificial environment of premades, you'll always find genuine newcomers and other 'randoms' , for whom the gear-acquisition issue is paramount.
And for the love of Benji, don't try starting to say it takes 'skill' or 'knowledge' to do a Dungeon and the new Dungeon Quests, if that's the current benchmark of those terms it's no wonder that the bracket is filled with camping little kittens acting like jerks.

Goblin Surveyor Jr. Grade - NPC - World of Warcraft
How is this equal to the eyepatch? The goblin can hit players for good damage? Can you explain it please?
