Server wait times for BG's

I wait a very long time between BG's which kills the fun to say the least. I can only do so many things while I wait for half an hour before wanting to stick a fork in my eye.

I'm waiting anywhere from 10-20 minutes for A/B and WSG

and between 20-40 minutes for AV

Question: Are all the server wait times different for the alliance, or are there better servers where I could transfer ?

I'm on azjol-nerub for alliance, and my one 60 horde toon that I pvp constantly is on gnomeregan. I have ZERO wait times for my horde toon for all 3 bg's day and night. I click on the battlemaster and pop, up comes the join dialog every single time under a minute.

What's your experience with wait times?

On Lightbringer, for Alliance, it seems to take at least 1 hour, closer to 1:15, to get into AV. Takes long enough that I was able to shepherd a group of guildmates through SM Cathedral while waiting for the battleground.

On aggramar, for AB anywhere between 10-20minutes and AV goes for 20-40minutes.

WsG sometimes varies, can be real quick and sometimes long but i dont often play WsG cos alliance=t3h sux ;)

Also AB we hardly win, somehow AV we win 90% of the time.

I also dislike the waiting times, cos there isnt just much todo in such a "short" wait time, a flight to somewhere already takes up half the time mostly.

I've also been experiencing allot of lag in BG's, mainly in AV which also kills the fun, cos its kinda disappointing when you have waited such a "long" time :D

Those 1 hour wait times would kill it for me. I don't think I'd play any more. I'm on the border as it is. I usually turn my speakers up and go watch tv while I wait for the BONG to sound signalling it's time to join.

I can get honor galore easily on my horde toon. I have 100 av marks in my inv and have lost probably another 100 to email timing out.

This is incredibly frustrating. I would LOVE to switch my alliance toons to horde, and would if given the chance.

AB and WSG less than 2 minutes.


AV about 2-3 minutes.

I played 4 av games last night in one hour, won 3 lost 1.
