Am I allowed to abandon a suicidal jump master?

Repeatedly, in Ranked mode, I have pleaded with a jump master to not drop into the biggest fray right at the beginning of the dropship's path, but they do it anyway, because they want to chase early ...

@alcatorsk In my opinion, it shouldn't be an issue if you land somewhere else to avoid an early death. There's nothing wrong with not wanting to drop hot, especially considering its ranked. Not to mention, this season is mainly placement based, not kills/knocks. You're not "sabotaging" the team by landing somewhere else. They're sabotaging their own game by dropping hot.

Thank you for your kind words. However, I need an authoritative verdict by the developer.

@alcatorsk You could try asking on help.ea

@XxColdFangxX There's Mako, David, Kent, Blueberry, and a lot others, Mako was the first to come to mind though.

@alcatorsk You won’t get in trouble for that lol. Are you pinging a different LZ option, saying something in voice, or chat? You shouldn’t just go and do your own thing every time, but if you’re tired of dropping with six teams that’s understandable. I feel the same. People have way too much confidence for their actual skill level.

  @RaginSam As I wrote, I greet them, I ask them to not hot drop, I always make a proposal of where to land before the countdown even ends, but sadly, some jump masters won't listen.
