"Twink"

[beilou]

I've been seeing this word thrown around here a lot. What does exactly does it mean in AL terms....?

Does any of you even know what it ACTUALLY means? If not, ya'll might want to consider changing the term.

[Bootdaddy]

No clue what it means but from my experience it means a person that pvp's a lot.

I agree with you on the strangeness of the term. I, myself, was kinda all WTH when I first heard it in game, but now I'm used to it.

[abekrivy]

I think it means a low level character. I also know what twink is used to describe elsewhere.

"Twink" is the word used yo describe a young gay man.

And I don't think I could ever get used to this word being used as a harmless in-game term! Lol

Twink is a low level character with SUPER gear for its level.

A low level pvp character. Doesn't always have super gear.

Yay let's all be overly sensitive and go out of our way to make sure we don't offend people with a word we had no intention of offending people with

It's very commonly known in communities such as this that twink refers to a low level pvp toon, if someone chooses to misdefine (yep i made that word up, sounds right though huh ) it and be offended by it that's their issue. Frankly i could name a few gay players on this forum that don't give two craps about the word twink.
