While I understand that winning is supposed to be fun, how can you people enjoy yourselves when only using the same loadouts? Same meta-weapons every match, same cheap tactics. How is it fun to win, knowing that you have to sweat your balls off to have a chance? Do you want to inflate your stats and compensate for your own lack of gun-skill? Please, tell me. Before you say that the meta is the only good set of weapons, you're already wrong.
Gee, I can't wait for this to be downvoted heavily, if anyone even sees it.
Edit: I'm on YouTube! I'm featured in Hush's latest Palindrome review, in which he insults me for using Cocytus SR4 and Plan C in Rift on Last Exit.
Edit 2.0: Go and find the comment on this post by llGhost1ll, he/she(/xe?) understands my point, explains it in a more amicable way, and you as readers are less likely to despise them because they aren't the original poster.

I'm not a super sweaty player, and I can't speak for all the Meta abusers out there, but let me tell you a quick story. If you were here in year one, the Thorn/Felwinter meta was pretty strong. 2 tap kills from long range was real appealing. So when you were up against that load out, your options were fairly limited, and most people would fight meta with meta. Some of the better players found success with a big range of loadouts, but the bulk of the competition used what was being used against them. The super sweaty meta guys this season, not all of them are doing it to be super sweaty. I feel a good group are using them in response to what is being used against them. Winning is fun, losing to skill is fun, but losing to a broken mechanic or a Meta is pretty frustrating, at least to me. If you are getting routinely beat by a specific loadout, I think most people would adjust to that load out. Just my 2 cents :)
