This thread might seem salty, but I'm just trying to see if anyone has ideas in order to fix some issues.
Please try to keep this constructive and don't shittalk (you can do that via /w if you want lol).
@Kronos 2 players: Feel free to join the discussion but don't try to make this about you again.
I saw alot of threads about Kronos 2 being a dodgefest lately.
Still they got more BG's (even different ones) popping than on Kronos 1.
Just check last honor flush Kronos 1 vs. Kronos 2.
Kronos 1: http://armory.twinstar.cz/honor-ladder.xml?realm=Kronos -> 1219
Kronos 2: http://armory.twinstar.cz/honor-ladder.xml?realm=Kronos+II -> 2065
This will get worse the longer we wait since K2 is the place to be for new players.

Just wondering if you guys have any ideas on how to 'save' Kronos 1 PvP when we are facing the following issues:
Premades dodging Premades.
Solo-queue contaminated by either bots (mostly chinese), AFK or people that simply give up when they see a premade.
Queue-times (atleast for Horde) are ridiculously long even when solo-queuing.
Most of the old active PvP players quit.
Most new players start on Kronos 2 due to the age and available content of the server.
Kronos 2 has double the population Kronos 1 has.
No Cross-Realm BG's until Naxx is cleared on both Kronos 1 and Kronos 2 due to gear difference in BG's.
Not enough active PvP-players make multiqueues pointless.
Most rankers these days are chinese that will sell their account once they hit a high rank.
AV: Get exalted, quit PvP.
Ranking: Get rank gear, quit PvP. Hardly see any high rankers from back then.

This is not about premades farming pugs or 'omg i don't get 10 min mark' ( I get on if I want ).
I love to solo- or small-group-queue these days. But getting into games where 90% of the people either AFK or don't speak english isn't really fun, right?
I really like a challenge but even I have my boundaries
Back then: Rage because of Alliance.
These days: Rage because of your own team because they play like CS 1.6 bots.
Wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to wait 30 min in order to get a queue pop while solo queueing.
What I'd like to achieve with this thread are the following things:
1. Give me a view on how solo+group queueing and the whole 'chinese' issue is on Alliance side (since im Horde)
2. Most important: How can we make PvP more tempting for new players again?
3. Any idea on how to fix some of the issues?
(4. Any statement from GM's/developers on how you will deal with the ongoing death of PvP?)
I don't care if it's blizzlike or not.
I rather play on a non-blizzlike server than on a server where i have to wait 2 h for a BG pop.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
My suggestions (inb4 shitstorm of 'non-blizzlike defenders'):
1. I liked the whole leave queue get deserter idea
2. Create official policy that states what is legal and bannable in BG's (Jumps, spots, account sharing etc.)
3. X-Realms (I would even were full greens to play against K2 guys lol). The dream.
4. Make PvP more tempting like you did with the increased reputation gain. (any ideas?)
5. Fix major PvP bugs
TL;DR There are so many flavours in this world and sushi choose salty.
- - - Updated - - -
- Small amount of gold for BG-marks (worked on other servers)
- X-Realm and check itemlvl of gear on char and bag before setting K1 players with K2 DD
