If you're too low of a level people will assume you don't have enough money or items stored to contribute, so they are gonna have to foot the bill for items.

Not really, if it's not that then I agree with you, the hell are people even doing joining publics if not to play?

Lots of reasons. For example I might leave a lobby right after logging in if I hear a bunch of racist and/or abusive chatter. I often leave if the difficulty is to low (I like to play on professional or maybe nightmare with the right group). Some people will leave if they find out your doing a map they hate. Others look at a persons low level and think they're low level, have no money, and cant contribute equipment or dont have the experience to play at a higher difficulty. Then theres some people that hear the voices of younger gamers and just leave because of past bad experiences.

The main thing the game needs is a server browser. It would fix a ton of these issues and more

tbh im only level 49 and have quite a lot of items already also not too bad at the game too, the way i see it, if a newbie joins then its best to help them get used to the game as thats all it is, a game. Dont get people who get too serious with games like this they're made to have fun with.

I think mostly because lower levels see higher levels playing on professional / nightmare. Clearly new so they bounce out looking for lower difficulty lobbies.
