The new blood is fine, but they're all jumping onto Gold too fast. I bet there are plenty of Silver people who never moved up in difficulty either.

It seems that all the good players only play with friends now so PUGs are more adventurous than ever.
This.
I agree with the OP also. PUGs are worse than ever. Ryoldschool and I played one earlier today where one pug got 60k and the other got 30k in U/U/G... we weren't even trying hard either. I ended up with 185k (Cerb. Adept) and he had 140k (Juggy). We each got a friend request from one of them after the game lol.
They don't kill anything... never gel... and are generally worthless.

However, some of my best PuGs were actually in the weeks leading up to Reckoning. Since then, however, it's been crap on Gold.

I'm not sure what difficulty you're talking about, I've noticed that PUG quality has gone to crud in Gold, but there is still a chance of finding competent players in Platinum. It's possible that people are moving out of their comfort zones as the fact that the game is now in it's final state sinks in and the number of different new things to try is getting smaller.
All except Platinum, since I only go into Platinum when a friend of mine is on.

I played a Gold game earlier and had a Turian Cabal + Geth Trooper following me around the map, trying to steal my kills. Needless to say they ended up contributing very little to the team.

I have run into an awful lot of players who don't seem to think pugging gold with a shuriken and one of each consumable is a bad idea. I can only carry so many pugs before getting annoyed that hardly any of them pull their weight.
I joined a PUG lobby a couple of days ago with my Geth Trooper fully loaded with consumables/AcolyteX/HurricaneV, and one of the other two guys(both without consumables, and level 1 rares/UR) immediately put a kick vote on me. Needless to say, I knew where that lobby was headed so I left.

One thing I really hate about PUGs is how in every game there is a Juggernaut. I would be fine with this IF THEY ACTUALLY USED CONSUMABLES and actually gelled when they're about to bleed out. This is about 95% of the Juggs I play with and they do nothing.

I'm sick and tired of playing with scrubs that are under-levelled and quite frankly unprepared for Gold/Platinum. I notice more and more Pugs seem to be playing with no equipment and simply expect other people to carry them. They also refuse to use any consumables so I end up wasting most of mine reviving them.

What were you playing as?
