Apex 178, lvl 3 human engineer, in a Gold lobby: "I played me3 platinum for years, so I really don't need babysitting." Gets killed on wave 1 with 49 points. "Okay, you're babysitting me."
He found out very quickly that you can now ban people in the match...

Did you dying? Him rezzing? Make difficulting? Don't soloing. I definitely wasn't dying or anything, and I was cleaning up. He just doesn't like Rambos I guess. Yeah I guessed as much but I find his insistent messaging style oddly endearing and very quotable. He's the Confucius of MEAMP.

(enter lobby with three lowish Apex players with level 20 kits)
rando pug: "Hey this is gold, do you have any level 20 kits? You want to bring a level 20 kit to gold games."
me: "Sure, I have a lot of kits at level 20, it's fine though, you can't tell but even though this kit's only level 12, it's rank X, so it's like the equivalent of a rank I kit at a higher level. Know what I'm saying? You know what, never mind." *exits lobby*

Meh, I miss the old days of gaming where I didn't have to listen to people's voices. Or people chewing food. Or people yelling at their family / pet / imaginary friends.
Whatever happened to just typing in group chat?

At that time I had apex rating around 4000 carrying a Vanquisher I. All the other 3 players were using level 18 or higher kits and the host came on mic telling me "This is SILVER. Don't bring a level 10." I ignored him and readied up. He said it again and I ignored him again. Then I was kicked out of the lobby...... I went back to pugging gold.

I just tonight started to take my rank X level 1 kits into gold when playing in BSN lobbies, if you want to join in, I can friend you up.

I was in a game not too long after release and heard: "Hmm? Oh no honey I'm full, thanks." And a few waves later: "Hmmmmm? Oh yes we're out, I'll pick some up next time I'm out." Statements similar to this continued all match.
I don't know why I found it so entertaining. Probably because it was joining yet another outlaw zero match for the umpteenth time.

I usually just see what they are doing and do the same. Yeah, same. But if you do select to join a zero outlaws lobby with three snipers and THEN select to run around in the furthest room drawing fish out of the barrel and taking forever to kill them in your yoloswag vanguard masturbation, then yeah, you are just an annoying fuck and a liability to your team. If you don't like zero outlaw sniper lobbies then just move on. It is not like they need you to join them for extraction.

Dropped into a Zero Outlaw lobby and did my usual running around instead of camping, and got a message from a PUG. Dropped into a lobby with him later on in the day without realising, and got the same message from him. I "hate" players like you when I am trying to farm Zero Outlaw. Especially if I customized the game for it. But I also understand that as much as melee, sniper can also be a pain in the ass for other players.

If you don't like zero outlaw sniper lobbies then just move on. It is not like they need you to join them for extraction. Sometimes it's unavoidable. 95% of gold games are Zero/Outlaws, 4% are Random/Random (I'm not taking any chances of Kett and Upload objectives), and 1% Random/Remnant or Random/Outlaw. If I try hosting I can be sitting there for ten minutes and no one joins. But usually what I do is camp in the doorway at the far back of the room on the left. I can get a decent number of enemies funneled my way and the others still get targets down sniper alley, so it's win/win.

I can get a decent number of enemies funneled my way and the others still get targets down sniper alley, so it's win/win. My impression is 80% of gold lobbies are preset to Outlaw, 10% Remnant, among the remaining 10% Random/Random lobbies half of them are hacked......so I have about a chance of 5% finding a legit gold pug game that I feel like playing in... When I can't find any Random/Random lobbies I host on my own. Waiting for the lobby to be filled takes forever so I usually go straight into the game by myself with a kit strong enough to survive wave 1 without using consumables. Most of the time I can have 3 players joining me during wave 1. Although no one likes to stick around after one game even if we have full extraction. Maybe they don't like Random/Random settings, maybe they're lagging, or maybe they realize instead of being someone who can easily solo gold Random I'm actually a medium-cooked mediocre potato so they all leave in disappointment...

"Alright kid, you have one shot"... (To make sure I'm worthy to keep me in the team).
I'm 33 and I have over 2000 hours in ME3 and around 70 in MEA. Yet you also have a picture of a bra-wearing old man as an avatar. On a side note: We went bowshooting ( with a designated target and everything, like the Pro´s we are ) near a river once and police came be, because an elderly told them, that she saw "Some guys with a crossbow hunting swans" . Which is not relevant at all, but your nickname reminded me of that story.
