I can't quote the whole thread, but this is awesome and appreciated! Going to take a break from the queue, and sit down with these for a bit.

as someone who never drops with more than 4 people in a group, I will say my advice is never suicide or roll over or gen rush. You get better by actually playing against the stacked teams. When we drop, we call for our pugs and try our best to make whatever they bring work to either win or make it a competitive game. Giving up or hoping to run into worse players will just leave you stagnant and unable to get better.
Yeah so I guess I haven't experienced much of that, and to be honest what difference would it make if I tried when the rest of the team says yolo and just wants to get it over and done. I haven't seen that many mics light up before period.

Intentionally suiciding is a bannable offense, so probably shouldn't do that.
Sadly players would rather suicide and end the game rather then play against what at the time appear to be stacked teams...
Mind you I haven't been around long enough to know anything about any units so this isn't just me talking i'm just presenting what I have experienced so far in my small tenure in MWO. I guess to speak up for the new players which, yes we do exist, and more and more by the day. In Clan chat at least asking build questions etc.
From what I can gather from the chats: EmP, EVIL, BCMC and a few others I can't recall appear to be well hated/feared to the point where it leads people to do what you are describing. Where it leads people to come together with a common objective. I've tried countless times to get people to coordinate to win, but I guess all it takes is loading up and seeing certain unit tags on the other team.
