First thing you said is totally absurd and said in an offensive way. So i will plainly ignoring, and kindly report. Do note that i have nothing against it myself, but the rude way he just exposed his oppinion has gone too far. Yes, i'm refraining from repeating his exact words, it's been said once and it's definately something that isn't worth repeating.
Second, no. 80s are not exactly "fully enchanted chars". 80s are 80s. Simply, people can have alts hitting 80, and obviously, their alts will be on inferior status than their mains; that does not mean they aren't 80.
Third, although it is your choice to enter BGs,as you rightly said, it is not your option to run Hellfire Peninsula in your way to 80. (Of course, i mean you HAVE to go to a contested zone to level up, not necessarily Hellfire Peninsula.) So no, it is NOT the same thing to be atacked by a high level in the world and to be atacked by a twink in a battleground, unless you go at level x0.
edit:
I can not tell you if Lokatum offered another solution, but I did offer this one (we can call this one solution 3)...
3: The solution would start when you install the game for the first time ever at the realm selection screen. Based on the type of realm you select how the PvP ques would function would change....
...For realms marked as PvP/Roll Playing PvP: The default que would be Xp-Off in PvP with Xp-On outside of PvP...no other option. If you sign up for PvP you get PvP. If you want to "twink" out for a bracket you would have to make sure that you don't "level into another bracket". (would make creating a twink for a given brackt something that is a callenge and not too easy because you could farm an instance forever for that right peice of gear without worry of leveling out of the bracket).
...For realms marked as PvE/Roll-Playing/Normal: The default que would be Xp-On....no other option. If you sign up for PvE/Roll-Playing you don't have to worry about ever getting farmed my some Raid Boss Twink in a given bracket until the end of time ever again, because they would all have to level though.
No free transfers (thinking about it this from bizzards "bottom line" cost of implementing said fix). If you are like me, someone who like PvP frist, and PvE second...but are curently on a realm marked as PvE...and you want to transfer...you have to pay to do so. (I know I for one WOULD pay to do so).
Ranked #2
: I would rank this 2nd in the possible solution and better then either "pick one server/battle group" and "give it to the twinks"...or make Xp-Off the default and if you pay the gold to turn XP-On you would still have to play with the XP-Off (twinks) solutions.
With a slight change: to create a new entire section. Changing the current sections would sort of create confusion and cries of "NOOOOOO" or "YEEEES", but an entire new type of realms would be quite interesting. With this i mean an entire new battlegroup, instead of changing what we have... Too messy to acomplish that without QQing from the users, tbh.

So you getting offended again shows your character.
After having this knowledge would you still call your character this? Actually is quite funny they got named that with this information. Which is why I promptly refrain from the use of this word. I am not gay and I find the word twink offensive. Wouldn't you?
I believe we have a winner.

Stop the twink/gay debate here. There are tons of words that have multiple meanings, for instance, gay can/does mean happy.
Twink can/does mean optimally geared low level character when the forum setting is WoW, the term isn't going anywhere, the debate is useless and offtopic.

Will the system ever change no never they couldn't careless it has just been proved. Facists just like hitler they have killed off another race of players having the same nazi thinking when naming them and then exterminating them.
No more to be said here, this forum is very wrong
Seriously? Your going to compare people who disagree with your position regarding this
video game
to Adolf Hitler? The twink thing hasnt worked out as well as it could have, this is true. And it should have been fun and constructive to have a reasonable discussion on this topic, but you have just removed any hope of that with your complete disregard for debate, logic, grammar, and this latest statement is just plain offensive. You do realize 6 million+ human beings, (sons,daughters,mothers,fathers) were slaughtered at his hand, if you are dumb enough to think it appropriate to compare the holocaust to what has happened to twinking then there is no reasoning with you. The moderators need to seriously think about putting this thread out of its misery.

Just stop, you must be aware that words can and do have multiple meanings. In england *!@ is a word used to reference a cigarette, it means something entirely different here in the states. Who cares, its about context, we are in a wow forum, it is understood that the word twink here doesnt mean a young gay male. Your insistence on using the word toon is just confusing the matter at hand. This thread has already devolved into an incoherent mess without you using the word toon incorrectly. If you dont like the word twink than make up a new word for it, but using an existing rpg term(toon) incorrectly is making things harder to read.
And there you go assuming Blizzard's stance on a subject when you clearly have not furnished Blizzard credentials and therefore have no right to speak on their behalf. ( I remember someone stating their disapproval of this tactic somewhere in this thread, hmm I wonder who that could have been)
Both Irishandawesome and redmosquito do not for one second represent blizzard in anyway.
For them to use blizzard as a representation in their arguements is bad conduct and form. They don't work for Blizzard so their view of Blizzards rules and polices is just an assumption. For them to make a post with their own assumptions of Blizzards policy is pure misconduct and should not be tolerated on this forum. Unless they can link me their Blizzard credentials, so that everybody can see them reading this thread

I'm teasing you about the Blizz credentials, relax. I understand that the word has an alternate meaning, I have 3 kids myself and my 13 year old is simply not allowed to play online games because the communities are generally full of amoral individuals. But the fact remains that twink is the proper term that for some reason we have all agreed to long ago. Toon is another term relative to rpgs, you are using it in the wrong manner and its confusing. How bout you say tweaked characters or something, this discussion is fruitless enough without the misuse of commonly used jargon.
