Please make Gauntlgrym solo queue only

Gauntlgrym (GG) PvP is lots of fun for me and, I hope, others. Making it available all day was a stroke of genius. The problem now is the premades that destroy PUGs in Domination are joining GG to destroy PUGs here, too. Let's keep GG fun and casual by only allowing solo queuing. If people want to play with their friends, they can join Domination.

So I'm not allowed to play with my friends in a MMO? Interesting story.

By playing MMO with friends you mean "facerolling pugs with a 10 man premade"? Nice concept.
No - I mean playing with friends - that's one reason I play online games. What you interpret into it is not my business.

Actually it should be exactly the other way round. Domination should be the competitive format for solo and full premade queues and GG the casual format without restrictions, matchmaking and the leaver penalty.
GG is fine as it is. In case you are in one of those lopsided affairs, you can quickly drop out and re-enter.
I think it has been stated by most people that the joy they are getting out of it is minimal. I personally would think those premades would actually queue up for Domination if it was guaranteed they'd face another premade. Nobody has fun walking around the battleground just waiting for the match to get over. That's wasted time.
+1. If i wanted to play by myself I would not be playing an MMO. When this MMO does not let me play with friends is when im done and onto the next one.
It would make more sense to ask for a non-team game.
Neverwinter should offer both - premade/single domination/gg. Independent from queue time.
And of course I want to play with my Neverwinter friends, but I don't have a single one
So to the pugs complaining, we don't enjoy getting a full premade to destroy your 2k gear level 0 tenacity char. I bet some of the times, you were probably only up against 3 or 4 people that queued up together and you kept running into them.
This game does need better match making for both domination and GG, but it's not that easy. So even if your wish of only allowing people to solo queue, next you'll be asking for players to be forced to stripped down to your gear level once they have entered. So perhaps make some better suggestions to balance GG out for EVERYONE, instead of altering the game for YOUR own benefits only.
Have the gear and skills, but lack the friends to play with? Come and apply for Essence of Aggression. We have been here and strong since beta. (Immature, rude, and arrogant people will not be accepted)
How does playing a team game as a solo player make more sense than playing a solo game as a solo player?
I've suggested it before and I'll say it again: 5v5 domination should be solely tied into leaderboard and let the pvp guild premades queue for that because, after all, they only care about the size of their epeens. Give GG to the casuals, who are just there to experience another fun element of the game. Coz face it, pvp is a lot more fun without all those exploiting, bug-abusing @ssclowns who think they actually contribute something meaningful to this game.
Edited to add: pvp in this game can and should learn from WoW, which had 2 modes of queuing: one for casuals (normal battlegrounds) and one (two) for the hardcore pvp'ers (arena/rated battlegrounds).
The first mode did nothing but record your kill/death ratio and flag-capping etc for achievements, while the second mode was completely tied into the leaderboard and rankings for end-of-season rewards.
I can't see why something similar would not work in NW.
The most important thing in life is to be yourself. Unless you can be Batman. Always be Batman.
I agree with you about a separate que system but really, slamming the entire competitive pvp community with insults accomplishes absolutely nothing.
