This game should be about CW and dedicated faction hatred and the roleplaying associated with that.
By letting casuals increase in number I am less likely to see faction appropriate livery and trash talk. That lessens my enjoyment quite a bit.
People who are worried about PGI's bottom line are not correct. You give them money and they don't hire more map guys, they redirect it to failed MechWarrior Tactics or Transverse.
People can speculate all they want about player numbers and how that affects matchmaker but without real data it is pointless and anecdotal.
Noobs/Casuals don't need advocates. They can speak for themselves. This is not a joke thread.
