@VisualfEX See, unfortunately I've been seeing the OP's attitude a little too much at places like Reddit and especially in the game. I installed the game on launch day and only got to play a few hours. Over the month it's been out, due to work, I've only managed to log 15 hours into Apex so far. So, I am very low level with no kills yet. I'm still very new at the game. But, that's life, and real-life responsibilities have to come first.
Apex is also not my only game to play.
Playing as a Solo queuing player, the few times the past week I have played, have been atrocious. I'm popped in with higher level people that don't want to revive me (but have revived their fellow high-level player, so likely a Duo), screamed at for being low level to the point that I just turn down the incoming voice volume in settings and only use the ping system now, and so forth.
I'm not new at online gaming, I'm 46 years old and have been online consistently since 1999 and EQ1. But the sheer amount of toxicity I now get in Apex, just for being low level a month after launch, has really made me not login to play anymore nor spend money on the game. And it isn't a matter of needing a thick skin. I've been an author for over 25 years, I have a thick skin. The toxicity doesn't personally upset me, insult me, or offend me. It's just the fact that the crap completely destroys any enjoyment in the game. I mean, why deal with it, when I can just fire-up Overwatch, Paladins, or Realm Royale and not have to deal with it anywhere near the degree as here in Apex?

Yep yep yep. I'm thinking I'm gonna take your advice buddy. I was on a 4 win streak going for 5 and of course a level 7 took my lifeline. Me, wanting to be nice, didn't quit.
I SHOULD HAVE.
He was so awful... Just baited us while i knocked one out of 3, and broke another's armor while he's crab walking to a corner literally listening to them heal.
UGH so frustrating. I wanted that 5 in a row SO BAD.
Back to square one.
