You have the same for dungeons, if you select to do a random dungeon you get a reward but you do not if you select specific dungs. No we need more rewards for all aspects of pvp, not to take them away. Remember at start of legion when they took away glad tabards and 2.4 enchant, so many people complained they had to bring them back. Peopl want more rewards not less. I don’t see the harm in random bg’s. Yeh there are some I hate and ALWAYS afk as soon as Ashran shows up, but it’s not too much of a big deal. Rated bg’s and arena are the main focus. Just like mythic + and raiding are the main focus for pve and not random dungeons.
Actually, that’s not a bad idea. But i would rather have blacklist back, just to avoid Seething Shore 
Remove the rewards and even less people will join for sure.
10/10 best idea.

What they should do is remove the dumb daily reward. Instead keep it 100% at all times. After completing the daily reward I feel demotivated doing another one because the rewards get reduced by so much. Doing more than 1 BG feels like I am literally wasting my time.
Maybe Blizzard should increase the rewards for playing more. After every BG you get 5% more rewards. Damn that would incentivise players to play more instead of doing the opposite?!
For some people arenas, and especially rated bgs are completely inacessible. And you Said it yourself, you get placed in a bg you hate so you just afk, that shouldnt happen, the game shouldnt force you to sit through something you really dislike one way or another.
Reinstate them in a different way, such as daily specific battleground Quest, read the post if you’re gonna mock dumb dumb.
The reward is there to entice people to queue. It’s a pain if you get a BG you don’t like but that is the nature of a ‘random’ BG.
We all miss blacklisting 
It’s true, but sad in a way. Kinda like when blizz promoted hots by giving overwatch skins for playing it. It’s better if people play something they find fun, not just sit through something to get a reward.
But thats exactly what people do, they sit through a battleground, if they win then Great, I’m done with this for today if no then its questionable if they reque.
Shouldnt the pvp experience alone be enough of a motivation to play it? Not some carrot on a stick.

I have only played HoTs to get a pet for WoW and a mount.
I presume cross promotions and in game promotions bring them increased traffic and play. And it probably gets some to try their other games and some may stick around if they like it.
I have only played hearthstone long enough to get my hearthsteed. I’m not one for those kinds of games much 
I’m fine with the current system, but then again I only do 1-3 BGs a day just for fun, not for the rewards.
I dont need the gear from there and players can get conquest from so many resources these days anyways.
However, It doesnt hurt to implement a system like OP asks. In fact, it would even be better to choose which BG I can gain rewards from. That would be getting 65/40 conquest from doing what I love instead of a random BG.
However I understand why blizzard has this system, because some BGs were favoured and some werent played much. So they wanted to incentivize people to play them all by giving rewards from “random”. Thats why they also removed blacklisting BGs.
So yes, I agree with the OP and no, blizzard probably wont do this.
