While sifting through the forums, I notice that there is a clear and decisive separation in the community when it comes to the topic of shotguns in the crucible. One side of the argument is calling for a nerf while the other is calling those people bad players who cannot play around them properly.
However, when you actually look at the profiles of the different members of each side of the spectrum, you will notice a common trend: the players calling for a nerf will have significantly higher scores per game and K/D's than the players saying that the shotgun is balanced.
Better players = more valid opinions, am I wrong in saying this? I'd like to hear some community thoughts.

You are wrong in your opinion although me saying that is also just an opinion. Some people have better hand eye coordination than others, or have more experience playing FPS games than others. The game should allow people of all skill levels the opportunity to be competitive otherwise you alienate a very very large group of players. Realize that the game is part of a business and in order for the skilled players to have a game to play, the unskilled players need to also purchase the game. Otherwise the company wouldn't make any money and there wouldn't be any game. So yes you could make all the changes skilled players want but the game would just offline and nobody would be able to play. The casual gamer pays the bills so in reality you should thank them.
