Here is a post from Drysc concerning "twinking"

Its something we neither discourage nor directly encourage. Its something that we have found is fun for a select group of our players, and they enjoy squeezing every last ounce out of a character at a specific level to try to compete. For the majority of twinks it isnt about gearing yourself better than the people that may just wander in on their way to 60, its about enjoying a character at a specific level with a specific set of items and abilities available to you. It actually comes down to a very basic and fun system in a twink vs. twink matchup. In a lot of cases twink groups are just trying to work their way through your group so they can get matched up against that other twink group they have been talking to on the forums. Its an interesting culture that has evolved, and we have strong reservations about pulling that away or disrupting it.

Im kind of getting away from my point though. Its definitely a concern to us that a player may want to participate in PvP on their way to 60 and become discouraged by encountering twinks in the various battlegrounds. To help alleviate that problem were planning to implement a battleground matching system when the expansion releases that will attempt to match up well geared and well organized groups with other well geared and organized groups. Its not going to ensure that you will never see someone with an enchant ever again, but we think it will go a long way to help people play against more appropriate opponents.

About time. That's why I stopped pvping, especially at lvl 19, with my rogue I used to have. When I unloaded everything I had on this one character, and he turns around and kills me with about 3 hits, something is wrong. This happened a couple times in the same WSG match. That is something I have never forgot about and probably never will until I stop playing WoW.
 
at level 45 with my warlock I seem to be more than equipped to survive twinks, as long as they weild mana and (as seems to be usual) go after me and ignore my trusty felhunter.
