Regular snowballs will no longer knock down groupmates in a Battleground. This only applies to Battlegrounds. The reason for this is that grouping is forced in the Battlegrounds and players were using the mechanic to cause grief to their teammates.

"Hardpacked Snowballs" -- specific to Alterac Valley -- can only be used against enemy targets. Again, the reason for this was due to negative player issues caused between teammates in Alterac Valley.
Here's a funny video of some guy knocking everyone off the bridge in Alterac Valley thanks to the hard packed snowballs! Funny!
