One additional thought on twinking (FWIW):

Twinking really isn't necessarily geared for defeating the same challenge level mobs that an untwinked character would being facing at the same level. In other words, an untwinked level 15 may be killing level 8-10 mobs while a twinked may be (should be) killing level 12-14 mobs. The purpose being not only faster experience, but also maintaining some semblance of challenge in those lower levels. As a twink levels they become less "twinked" and more "gear appropriate" for their level so this practice fades and merges over time.

This differentiation alone almost ultimately means that a twink and a non twink really shouldn't be killing the same mobs. Unfortunately, sometimes mindless slaughter is SOP for some folks, but imho that defeats the fun of twinking unless your goal is just to get to 60 ASAP.

Just wanted to throw this in there because blanket statements of "twinks are bad!" or "twinks are the best!" really aren't accurate at all.
