I recently tried to play my first ever online match and I thought I'd let the team know that I was a new player. The response I was met with was to "kill myself immediately". Now, this post isn't to appeal to the nonexistent internet police and say: "Wahh, wahh! The internet man is being mean to me". Rather, I wanted to know what the community consensus is to new players. Are they in any way valued as they are a glimmer of hope, however faint, that this game can retain any sort of player count, or are they frowned upon as people who take perfectly good matches and ruin them? (Don’t give me the cop out “it depends on the player” because that goes without saying, I’m asking what you would say most people think.)
