solo players, if they do well, can be commended if their team didn't put them on their back however there is NO ACHIEVEMENT in running around with your proto buddies scanning everyone and repping each other.
Play how you want, whatever, but anyone who complains about solo players is just complaining about that one person who keeps killing them who they can't justify because they don't have a well-known corp tag attached to them.
Some people are only good in a group, and worthless without scans and reps and backup. The reason they dislike solo players is because they know full well they couldn't perform as good as that person outside of a group.
Being in a group being security but also laziness, the solo players who are decent are the true warriors of DUST.
You are right in some aspects, but in the end we have diverse roles to play a team game it's a shame we don't see it more
- Stompers are what they are, I've been on either side enough to know it's only the difference between the teams.
In squads you can group up and kill these players, counter them and let them enjoy being stomped, so for that I have to be against solo play, if you have the time to squad up do it, if you don't .. then at least DO SOMETHING

I really enjoy solo play, because of the challenge that it gives. I've recently moved up to playing FW solo (which torched my wallet), and I can't stop now. It's not always anything close to a winnable fight - sometimes I go up against very high level players/squads, or go into battle with decent (at best) blueberries.
That being said, playing against eight corp members and out killing / out earning WP when compared to any individual member of the squad (or multiple members combined) is extremely satisfying. Winning against odds like that, there's not much like it. It's happened to me infrequently over the last two weeks, where I've been topping out at 25/9-11 and ~2000 WP in my really good FW games.

Even simple "Go here" - "Enemy tank / infantry spotted over there" commands would be lovely.
It'd be cool if any player could mark a spot that would be visible to the squad leaders.
I've played both as a solo and in a squad and I am 100% for a MAG like system that auto fills squads, people can still play as a solo if they want but it gives a cohesive structure to the team.

I solo 95% of the time unless I'm in FW. In FW, I'm normally to always in a Fireteam or Platoon... But I still solo and be Starlight there; however, I make sure everyone notices the work I put in. Either that being a loss or win. But anyways, onto my personal opinion per game mode.
Solo players in Pubs? I play pubs to make isk; however, I understand that pubs is supposed to be the pick up and play for casuals or less competent competitive players to game on. I don't mind solo players in pubs so long as they're at least putting in some effort. I am trying to make isk and so are you. You not trying will net you some isk but I will go negative in isk or not profit as much. So, lets either lose isk together or net some income together.
Solo players in Factional Warfare? If you can't carry your own weight that contributes a lot or isn't noticeable, gtfo of FW. FW is, imo, not for or designed to be for solo players. Unlike in EVE, where you can be in FW and contribute as a solo player by running missions, encounter pvp here and there and possibly, hopefully you do, donate LP to the faction. But if you can't contribute in a way that you're soloing is noticeable or heavily effective, gtfo. You're not helping us in the war.
Solo players in PC? Impossible and not what PC is designed for. Should encourage people to want to have loyalty to a corp / alliance not hop around ringing.
^ my opinion on Solo players per game mode category. But in general, if you can't carry your own weight like some of us solo players, they're garbage.

Also, nor all solo players are useless. Many, such as myself, are veterans who prefer the challenge of having no squad. It's now more of a challenge to be in a squad with the MM. It guarantees that you get 12 window lickers on your team. I don't know what a 'window licker' is but it seems you might match my observation. Ha! Got'hiiiim!
I genuinely wonder if I said something funny in Icelandic and Rattati was just impressed.

In the most succinct terms.....
Ambivalent.....
Depends on the match type. I'd much rather have an organised communicating....or directive taking squad member present FW.... in Pubs I don't really care... and in PC I continue to not care since Molden Heath is an undesirable backwater filled with pirates despite the good fights that I'm sure players get there.

I don't mind solo players either. Solo players that do nothing to help the team are the ones that I'm not so fond of.
