Some help for a noob

[Ashock]

There are two ways to enter the Battlegrounds.  The first is to physically travel to the location of the Battlegrounds instance portal (a red swirling portal), and walk into it.  Currently you can find Battlegrounds in Ashenvale, Alterac Mountains, and Arathi Highlands.  The second way is to locate Battlemasters in the major cities: in Ironforge, these are found inside the central building in the Military ward; in Stormwind, they are in the Throne Room of Stormwind Keep; in Darnassus, they are located on the second level of the Warrior's Terrace.  Walking into the portal or speaking with the battlemaster gives you the same Join interface screen.  You can leave a battleground by leaving the red portal inside the battleground, going AFK (either through 5 minutes of inactivity or typing /afk), winning it, or losing it.  Generally, you will emerge from the battleground at the point where you joined the queue.
