I completely understand and agree with your statements, you never really know until you game with someone. This is why I am indiferent with OP, I understand his position but don't agree with excluding for the emblem. I've done my fair share of backpacking before too and will continue to.

Exactly. It's actually rather stupid to think that the OP thinks an emblem labels you with a level of skill. I don't care if you're wearing a rare emblem from a vendor, if you're good enough and can contribute to helping the team in the activity, you can be with my fireteam. Heck, even they aren't very good but willing to learn, I'll try to help them understand
