Suggestion: Level locking

I would like to be able to twink. I have some friends that would play for a long time if they could. I would prefer if the buff to 9's in BGs is something you guys stick with if you allow level locking. The main reason people complain about twinking is gear and the knowledge for legally "exploiting" things. The 10-19s bracket, as it is, has some decent balance compared to other games outside of max level.
GWFs need damage buffs, and clerics need healing buffs. To top off the insane control from 2 CW's should be reduced. Rogues are not that hard to deal with as they could be.
If you guys do not intend to keep the buff to 19, I would really love it if you guys could make some sort of system that if someone is a '9 that everyone in there is buffed to their level.
I wrote this on the way out, thanks for reading

I figured that flame would come. If they make it more fair it isn't. Not like the 9's aren't op just because anyways. They could do a Gear Score max or so many points in each stat before we stop gaining stats in BGs. Also, yes, a lot of twinks are just epeen ***hats. doesn't mean that we all are. I like the challenge of having set skills rather than a large choice. Though, you don't have that many skills here overall. Just minor player choice. And I do like the small gear grind for twinks more than the carrot on a stick grind fest for max levels. To add to that, when expansions come, you don't have to level to the new cap etc.
The money companies lose because of twinks in the low level brackets always out weights the needs of the few people who find it enjoyable.
I find it very enjoyable. Just because "no one will use it" yeah bull ****. I use it a lot, and ENJOY it. Thanks for stereotyping us all. Also, did you read my whole post? Nope.
Here, I will stereotype everyone who dislikes twinks:
Sees level locking/twinking in thread name.
Immediate post on how terrible of a player the OP is.
Also, I usually play the worst class in the bracket to prove to other twinks that the class is not as bad as they say.
A game with twinks is like a game of T-ball where the 8yos have to play against the 20yos. Pick on people your own gear level, let the lowbies play T-ball. Wanna be a big boy PvPer? That is what the upper levels are for.
And you have set skills. You only can play with 4. Anyone who makes that complaint here doesn't want set skills, they want a shallow class selection with zero customization.
So, in a dnd game, the ONLY focus should be max level? Right, here I was thinking that dnd was about "ooh, next level! Thanks for the fun game night!" etc
futrix, please don't tell me about how low level is ONLY a tutorial. Because that is a lie.
Yeah yeah, this isn't WoW. Doesn't mean that they cant attempt to fix things in a similar manner.
First of all no D&D is all about the story which youd have to lvl up for anyways, secondly lets face it if twinks wanted to play games for the combat their are a plethra of lobby based PVP games that are nothing but pvp and everyone can in some of these games be the exact same character and it would do nothing but rely on the persons skills. Id have to agree that twinking is nothing but epeen just cause theres no be gained from it except bragging rights.

after reading the first entry, i had to search again.
it seems really stupid.
I, too, currently prefer the sub-60 PvP to the 60 PvP (very short time-to-kill, dying in a stunlock, chain CC/silence, etc.), but that is precisely because there is no huge power or gear gap. So, kind of torn on this, because I know why it's fun (especially the gearing up part and optimizing the items, without having to do epics and all that), but overall I think it's a bit of a form of bullying and wouldn't give new players a good impression of the game.
It's pretty much having fun at the expense of others.
Is this another PVP rant? I hate reading this <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>
Then don't read it and go back to dodging telegraphed attacks in scripted content. Thanks.
Better then reading stuff like this. Maybe have something in the title that says "PVP" ? thanks
Whats my point? as long as you are pulling your weight who the **** cares what your gearscore is.... min/maxers are worst thing to happen to mmos. As for twinking... sure i dont care as long as you guys get barred into a twink only battleground. Twinks are inherently detrimental to average player's progression and enjoyment of the game. Twinking is an interesting concept i have no problems with it... but i also dont want a bunch of overgeared players slaughtering people stand no chance.
True twinks want to fight other twinks, so a system that puts twinks into twink only pvp battles seems like it would be fine. Twinks that gripe about this just want to roflstomp people that cant fight back.
That's why they don't play at the 60's bracket.
Now this would be a great idea. Sadly, for obvious reasons I doubt many 'Twinkers' would want to take advantage of this......

God yet another reason why I didn't want PVP in this game.
Of course... you might have "That guy" in your group... The one that either kills, steals from, or impregnates every NPC that you find... Or cracks jokes while the big bad is giving his speech about how powerless everyone is to stop him.
If you cut off level progression, you cut off story progression. Yes, you may have played through the story already, maybe even more than once... But if you stay in character, it will be a new experience every time.
But lobby games are s***. And the diversity in being classes is what makes it fun for most of us who don't just brag and grief people.
Twinks are given such a s***y appearance because of a few of us. Also, when someone says "the majority of you quit twinking when they added exp lock in wow! we know this because of the long queue times!" To be fair, there never were that many twinks. And when you get rid of the 0-9's in grays and whites, it tends to slow down the queue, a LOT.
Thank you for understanding.

I am not even 60 yet. So no, it is not... Please don't assume these things. I was just stating what I think would better the level 10-19 bracket. Though if they allow level locking, I will be there.
People assume "oh, twink? oh yeah. Those guys who hack games and cheat their way to killing a level 1 that just started."
Uh... Most twinks outside of WoW private servers do not enjoy pve over pvp.
Finally! Someone who sees anything! I would only enjoy killing the 0-9's if they were buffed to 19 with decent stats that can compete on a 1v1 ground, and even kill me when I have full BiS.
Lol... SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much wrong with that post. So, your telling me, you want to get max gear to finish the carrot on a stick grind that never ends at max level, just to be roflstomped by someone who is already there? With twinking, you only get different gear when the company messes with the gear at your level.
No... F*** NO! NO MENTORING!
So, you want a level 60 with all their skills maxed out to kill my level 19 that I actually obtained the gear for that level? I will have weaker abilities, and I won't be able to use abilities like the Anvil execute type ability that GFs have, I won't have nearly as many talents, or even passives.
The s***y mentoring system is exactly what level 9 twinks facing 0s in grays and whites is...
If there is no pvp in the game, I don't play. You would be surprised how many others think this way when getting a new game. Does Diablo 3 have the PvP it promised for launch? Nope. And its been about a year now. It was supposed to be WITH launch. Also, with D3, they had created it just how they wanted it. Cancelled to redo the whole system in a different way.
Also, level locking is just another part of the journey for me
My twinks never stay at that level. I eventually go to the next bracket, or go to max level to start over with a new character for that bracket.
