Really? I have not really heard about this for vanilla era hunters. Rogues are usually considered OP because they can stun lock without diminishing returns.

Not at these gear levels. Once Naxx hits then sure, but atm if we use combopoints for stuns we don't generate enough dmg to kill people in the said stuns.

For battlegrounds, I'd say to go hunter. You can attack people from pretty far away, so you can stand back and ruin a lot of peoples' day in a team brawl. In contrast, a rogue has to fight on the front lines, so if your team is a bunch of wusses, then they'll basically stand back and piddle around while you go up and get flattened by a lot of dudes all at once.

For world pvp, I'd rather be a rogue, because you can bide your time and gank people when you've got the advantage. Also, since the server is so populated, there are always several more members of the opposing faction just around the corner. Because of this, it's kind of hard to get a 1 v 1 fight for extended periods of time. As a rogue, it's easier to gank somebody and then GTFO once his buddies show up.

However, as was already mentioned by somebody else, both classes are pretty reliant on weapons, so if you wanna stop at rank 13 and not really do much raiding, then you're better off choosing a caster class.

Rogues have a natural disadvantage against several classes. In contrast, hunters have enough tools available to have an answer for most classes. The reason why you might not hear about their OPness a lot is because, for whatever reason, the average player behind a hunter character tends to be half retarded (that was the case in retail Vanilla, at least).
