50 PVP queues suffering due to level 50 3-4 man groups queueing up in level 40 PVP

I can sit in level 50 pvp queue for 10-15 minutes before I get a pop or queue into level 40 pvp with the rest of the level 50's and get 1 minute or less queue times.

I have noticed more and more premade groups of level 50's since you can go 4 man teams doing level 40 pvp which has to be fun for the actual level 40's to get owned all day long by 50 premades.

Been queuing up both 40 and 50 simultaneously and for the last couple of hours and only got level 40 matches.

I really don't understand why level 40 pvp is the most popular in the game atm.

Level 40 PvP is where healer's can't stalemate a game and BLM is easier to train, WHM is slightly stronger, and SMN still ripfaces minus Enkindle. Also most gear are tuned down, giving people with no gear a better chances of winning.

It's rather simple actually. Anytime I queue, solo or group we queue for everything available 30's, 40's and 50. Full groups of 4 people aren't terribly common it would seem and so we get placed in the 30/40 fights very often when I'm in a full group.

Another reason as to why they are popular is the fact that it brings the playing field to closer terms with people who have PVP'd themselves full i70 and beyond already since morale doesn't help them the only benefit they get is the extra pvp skills. A lot of the people I PVP with go in with full PvE gear still and get wrecked in the 50 bracket cause of gear difference.

The ironic part of this is now that so many people have caught wind of this, the lv40 queue is just as hard as 50 used to be because all the good people have jumped on that bandwagon. Hopefully w/e they do to address 3+ man queuing will solve this.
