Black Rock merge happened way too soon.

With how the whole Blackrock thing is going down I just don't see the point on playing (As someone who loves both PvP and PvE). You put in hours of work leveling stuff up, do raids and farm for enchants for what? To fight against an instant 70 that got everything at the fraction of the time. At least people who donated to get gear keep the server going and staff paid.

This wouldn't have been issue if they waited till season 2 so they blend in with the rest of the population.
Or if there had to be an equal amount on both sides for BGs and were in their own arena bracket.

Too soon or too Later can be killed by the following analogy:
So you and your friend are working at the same company. You are paid the same salary. But, your friend efficiently works 2 hours a day, and you work 8 hours a day, and at the end of the month you get same salary.

This is exactly how it feels. On Blackrock you can autopilot afk alt-tab BG's and in 2 hours you can "complete" lets say 6 heroics. [You get honor from win/lose, and you buy marks for 500honor each]. While on Onyxia, you need INSANE group and in 2 hours you can do max 2 heroics, with sweating hard as hell, cause heroics are hard as hell.

The merge should have never happened in the current state of Blackrock. They just play a different game. Not only they have gearing advantage over regular Onyxia players but they also have special pvp quests that they are willing to throw your BGs for and throw tantrums when failing which makes the experience even worse.

Blackrock is cancer of Onyxia, the end.

Agreed with all above

Even if you have the huge amounts of free time & mental fortitude needed to properly gear an arena char on Onyxia, it will be borderline impossible to find dedicated partners. Problem is greatly compounded for those not in EU time zones.

I like the concept of Blackrock but its current implementation could use some improvement.

There would be no problem whatsoever if people from Onyxia could make arena teams with Blackrock players and queue together.

Implementing something like this is problematic cos arena teams in TBC belong to a single realm
