Sorry but you are actually not considered a Novice. Once a player surpasses level 7 on any class you are not a Novice any more.  You may have many low levels but you arnt a Novice.   

Red-Xiii:

My argument on obligation to teach instead of wreck novice pilots goes only to those that want to expand the player base and elongate the game itself for as long as possible.  And seeing as most high level folks enjoy the game and keep coming back, it seems that is just the next logical step that needs to be taken in such a small player base.  Playing the same people over and over cant be the future of the game can it?  You may not have signed up to be the handy helper, but is it not implied by your participation in this game? 

The same people that want to play this game hardcore can also be killing it by getting tired of helping.  Take a break.  Step away.  But come back and try and help a few times here and there.  I find way too much stacking.  I know this.  Doesnt matter that Im writing this when I saw 3 games earlier 3v3 with every high level on one side and the highest on the other was 14.  Its gonna happen sometimes.  I'm just saying it shouldnt.  Helping in chat isnt the same as helping during the game.  Ill get off my soapbox now.  I see these things in game and I guess I want badly for this game to be above the rest of the garbage out there.  There's a certain feeling you get when you are behind the wheel and in the skies with your crew that denotes extreme responsibility in a game.  I like the idea of that responsibility to be with the community as well. 

BlackenedPies:
Stacked lobbies are the biggest problem in pub matches and I know only a handful of captains who actively try to balance lobbies. Lobbies are intimidating and there's a lot of pressure on captains. The norm is to avoid challenge because of the fear of defeat.

I've heard complaints about Rydr stacking matches. I can't attest to the past but in my experience Rydr is the single best clan at balancing matches. It comes down to confidence and accepting defeat which I hope more players will do.

A partial solution might be a balance lobby button like the Ready button for captains. If half of the captains press it the lobby is balanced based on MMR. In the meantime use the Swap Ship button and show that you mean business.

Solidusbucket:
Part of the problem with the swap ship button is the other captains do not accept it.

I cannot remember the last time I successfully swapped ships.

I personally like a challenge and unless I am trying to practice my teamwork capabilities I will happily swap ships.

Ightrril:
If you private message whoever you are trying to swap with and explain to them why you're swapping (balance reasons) and how to accept it (notifications tab, upper left) then they are far, far more likely to accept. If that doesn't get a response you can also talk to them in whole lobby chat and explain. Mentioning that they stay with their crew as well helps.
I've found that, trying all of the above, swaps are successful almost all the time. Usually a request and them PM is all you need though.
