It is a well known fact that the majority of BG AFKers is, in fact, the hardcore arena crowd. And no, they do not want to participate in the BGs where they stand a chance of getting embarrassingly steamrolled by a more skilled and lesser gear opponent simply because they do not have their pocket un-OOM-able Resto Druid assfriend making babies with the nearest pillar to carry them, they want nothing more than to safely sit around all idle, alt tabbed and stroking each other off at AJ about WoW Account.
As we all ALSO know, the phrase "hardcore arena crowd" is synonymous with "Flavor of the Month" rerollers (or "FOTM" for those of you that do not halba). With the new XP in BGs feature, it is now entirely possible for the hardcore arena crowd to AFK their alts all the way to 80 and be immediately honor and token capped upon reaching it. Yep, a few accounts all running at the same time all day long in moms basement about WoW Account, all with different classes means they have their pick of the litter of geared OP classes prepared for any sweeping buff or nerf that may come, at their disposal. As such, this feature is now going to do nothing but cause us to see the instant saturation of FOTM classes skyrocket after patches, which will then artificially inflate their respective representation which will THEN in turn cause those classes to be unjustly nerfed (think: Ret in 3.2) because of it.

This is because Alterac Valley seems to give much, much more XP than the other BGs and I think we all can agree that the AV map severely favors the Alliance. This means that the legions of Alliance side hardcore arena motorhead alts waiting in the wings are going to progress at a much about WoW Account, much faster rate than the Horde, placing the Horde FOTMers impossibly behind in the XP in BGs arms race and at a severe competitive disadvantage about WoW Account.
