I was in river city laying down some suppression fire an on a lance of enemy mechs. All of a sudden I go boom.
On the end screen it said Destroyed by Attention Deficit. What does this actually mean? Google search returned 0 results.
How can I avoid such an untimely death in the future?

C:\Users\Windows user name\Saved Games\MechWarrior Online\ScreenShots

I love the player names like 'a cute little bunny'. It's funny being killed by such a username and almost too horrifying to kill such a player and seeing that 'X killed a cute little bunny' message..........almost...
