A twink is basically when you stop your characters xp gain at a certain level and get the best gear you can for that lvl. They are used specifically for pvp but may be used to farm kills as well. The popular lvls in PL are 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and I believe that is it. I hope this answers your question.

its making a low lvl charecter to fight others in pvp at that low lvl or they fight off other low monsters so say there is a lvl 12 he disables xp gain and ten fightss zombies gettting over 70000 kills (its easier than fighting in high dungoens)

This indicates kill counts is quite a sham... Do take note for those who like to judge other players through this.

I have the unfortunate experience of a lv1 bear pm me with WTF! I have 1700kills... Indicating I should be ashamed that I have lesser then him at lv38.... Of whch I felt some sort of intimidation towards newbies in this game.

And it was unfortunate of him that he chose me as his target of intimidation because I had the last laugh when I went in open chat with my 56 main to educate him not to judge a player by how they looked...

Sometimes, I just love to do crowd control at Belford castle... Lol

Indeed it can be. People tend to stop their xp gain at level 12 and farm FH until the crack the leaderboards. When I found this out I was quite disappointed, but I have to admit it was a bit expected. Any of you gamers out there know this type of player known as a stat booster. The LB for K/D ratio seems to be ripe with boosters. Who would believe that someone can go 1000+ games without a single death in PvP? People enjoy recognition no matter how it is attained. Too bad STS didn't make it so that disabling xp removes you from the LB (you know like using cheats disables achievement points with X360). It's a bit of an advantage if you can just farm zombies for kills, when compared to farming in BS. I recall reading a thread that stated STS was going to revamp the LB, I just hope they find a way to weed out the boosters.

P.S. Before you flame me, I'm not upset over the current state of the LB. In fact, I could care less since I don't play for recognition. It's just a bit of a letdown to see something that was meant to boost the moral of players who enjoy the game and get good at a singular aspect, being trampled on by someone with two accounts/devices who has nothing but extra time on their hands.

P.S.S. Why is there even a LB category for deaths? It's like the hall of shame, way to put a dunce cap on a few unlucky people.
