Thanks for the backup Schwalbe, and it's less I haven't played for a while and more I couldn't bother with achievements when it was the only way to level up and as such my level didn't receive a notable increase when the cap was tripled, but that's besides the point of this debate.

ha.

You can burn more.

But yes, having the inability to function at your most fundemental because you get crew that don't function period is really a pretty big issue. Just today I got command of a novice crew on a pyra. We kicked ass because I am awesome and it kind of rubs off WHEN YOU LISTEN.

But my teammate who is a level 20 summat doesn't quite understand the lobby games involved in measuring a player's merit and whether or not its worth it to bother playing a game in the selected lobby. As a result he got one of those potato folks as his gunner on a meta (gg, no functioning gat=whats even the damn point).

We coordinated movements and targets. But 1 functioning ship assisted by one that doesn't vs 2 functioning ships=game over. It only takes (at least) one to ruin it for the whole team. And thats a big ass problem. Sometimes being the softly softly unofficial CA doesn't do the job when alot of people simply want to play a damn game, and possibly practice getting better at it, but can't.

In any case. If lobby stacking is what it takes to simply play the damn game without being Mr CA. Then something is screwed up with the system/

You crew form. You join a lobby. As OFTEN happens, one of your crew loses connection for less than a minute. Bam, second gunner!

I don't think the solution here is a password ship or votekick, but rather an enforceable 'reserved' spot for people that lost connection for a bit.

So, you join with your crew, one is lost, and someone else joins. The captain or crew (if the pilot is lost) can mark the spot as 'reserved' before or after another person joins. The person in the spot will be given a popup saying the spot is reserved due to technical difficulties, and they may lose it if the player comes back.  If the previous player returns, they can click on the person in their spot and force a swap slot in some polite manner.

Problem solved in the least trolly manner possible.

YES.  If you DC in-game, your spot is reserved for what, two minutes before someone else can take it?  Two minutes might be a bit much for lobby reservation, but it is so frustrating when a friend DCs and their spot is instantly filled with someone who declines loadouts, proving they're not AFK, but also refuses to communicate or seems to not hear or read your pleas of "Hey, my friend down there in spectate was on this ship but disconnected, would you mind going to that empty spot on that other ship?"

Narayan, firstly let me welcome you in angry vet community, we meet every thursdays at Muse's building. Bring your own torch.

Some of your points may be decent but the delivery is cringeworthy.

As you've seen, first rule of playing GOIO is never playing alone. Always form at least a ship so you're safe from the plague of the neeeewwwwwbbbbbsssss. And I mean it. I only play when I can get people from my clan or my friends list.

If you want to contact Muse directly, write at feedback@musegames.com, devs sometimes read the forum but they prefer getting feedback by e-mail. At least they will write you back.

I can see why ;]
Also, there are at least two well-known clans of assholes and one clan of trolls*, you surely can find a place fit somewhere in. :)

Remember that people stack not because they want to pwn neeewbz, but because they just want to play without having to babysit some new player. They just want to have fun and the ONLY way is to crewform together as a clan and friends, and since most active goio players are vets (1k + matches) this leads to stacking. Muse cannot fix it because it's busy with Alliance dreamy shennanigans so it's tough crap for you; you either form with clan/friends and play only/mostly with them or you get frustrated and quit the game. There is nothing anyone can do for you, since Muse has their mind set on votekick and similar options.

also...

Finally - an opportunity to use this as a reaction.
