Do you hate Twinks and WHY?

I think twinks are rubbish.
I didn't see any point in it, when I had one. Yes, woohoo, I pwned some level 15 noob horde, now I must be the best!
Rather raid or wtfpwn on my main...
Also when I was noob, those pesky twinks ruined it all for me :)
I think you will find that most twinks would rather leave a 15 noob horde alone than go after them, unless of course the 15 can somehow directly affect the battle. The majority of twinks are in it for the challenge when they come up against another twink. 2 people in equal gear means it all comes down to skill.

19 and 29 BGs are no fun for me. Basically, because no one has any decent abilities yet, the class is not even half of what it is at higher levels. You don't need twinks to ruin 19 and 29 BGs, since classes are crippled at that level anyway.
39 is somewhat fun... not much, but still.
49 is where the fun starts for me. At 49, twinks can still be annoying, at 59 less, and at 69 fun is guarantied :)
Basically, I don't have much of a twink problems as I always avoided 19/29 BGs, but I think it's totally OK to have a twink and there's nothing to hate about it.
I never, NEVER understood why would someone make a lv 59 or lv 69 twink.......>_>

Im to a huge fan of twinks. they ruined my game in the early brackets and i did think that pvp wasnt for me. But Nef was absolutely right in his post. Like it or not WoW is a game designed to keep you playing for as long as possible. There will always be a huge mix of gear in BG's and while you can be the most skillful player the "gear gap" will always attribute to your success. While i dont agree with the term "Welfare Epics" (as if you dont have these then you are a pve player. and how the hell do you get arena geared without them) I do think that bg's and arena should be fun. and (in the case of bg's) Twinks do spoil it for those that cant afford twink gear evry 10 lvls as well as new PvE gear.

lol "ritch"... how do you manage to misspell a 4 letter word?
Anyways, I like twinking because I find the research that goes into it to be a lot of fun. You have to be careful about how you twink out your toon because you only have so much exp you can gain. It's a lot more tricky than 70 pvp. I'm not hot on the 19 bracket because of the inflated egos but I enjoy 29. 29 has a lot more options to play with and because there are a few items that are bc enchantable it forces you to do some research on your twink first. It's all about planning and if you do it right you can end up with a really powerful toon. You think I give a &*!@ if I'm fighting 70s or 29s? No.. if anything 29 is a lot more chill instead of the honor grind fest 70 is now.
"Just let them win so I can get my badge and get into the next one." !@#$ that. This game is about pvp, you think people gave a !@#$ what you were wearing back when there were TM/Southshore fights? Or if people could armory you before they melted your face at XR? lol no PvP isn't about being fair or about skill, it's about enjoying the slaughter. If you don't like these things then face some facts and conclude that pvp is not your thing, stick to instances. The skill debate never ends, if you replaced every forum topic with the word Stormherald and replaced it with Arcanite Reaper you'd have WoW 3 years ago.

IMO ppl who say "twinks are pathetic newbs who can't play well on their main" are dumb as hell. You know, if you play your whole time in raids as a healing priest or pally, you have no chance to see big red numbers above your enemy's head. But you want to fight, not only to be a healbot. The easiest way is to start a twink, because it takes three or four days to level him and around one week to get gear. Twinks are buying BoE blues from AH, asking guildies to help them with instances, enchanting their gear. It is a lot of time, gold and effort.
Even at 70 lvl we have the same situation - somebody just dinged 70 and joined a BG in greens, and somebody got blues from instances, or farmed honor for epixx. And ofc char in blue/epic gear will kill a char who dinged 70 five minutes ago. Why people do not whine about this?
Lol, what a wall of text :O
And sorry for my crappy englsh :D

SOLUTION REACHED:
either:
1) give exp for kills in lower brackets
or
2) remove the good gear from the lower brackets. (and disallow enchants on stuff below... say 20)
