I don't understand very well when people say "Support character" because for me the best support I can give is the one that don't leave any enemy alive.

Well, since crutches are considered a "support", I say TGI and AIU are support characters xD

A kit who's carry weight limitations, lack of offensive powers, weapon damage, and sucky health make them only useful enough to run away, boost everyone else's shields, and cloak. So yeah, pretty much kits that suck(aka volus).

Come over here and say that to my face.

As far as I know, the best support classes there are are the ones that kill stuff fastest. The more stuff is dead, the less stuff there is to shoot you.

PUGs are a drawback, they make me revive them and they slow down objectives because they decide to not do them and run to the other side of the map and die. lol.

Any character designed (either by build or team dynamics) to make kills easier for the OTHER members of the squad rather than themselves

When I was disabling a device today I had a pug paladin plant his shield right in front of me, so that a possessed scion could carpet-bomb me as well. Luckily they exploded a millisecond after I was done. Still wanted to murder him.

A shield-boosting volus for three slayers/melee GIs may count as a support character.

Depends on enemy and situation.

Vs Cerberus or geth, a Justicar with a tech team can help detonate explosives while debuffing enemies and buffing teammates.

A TSE can make any tech team 50% better in addition to shutting down the geth.

A SE vs reapers can make marauders' shields disappear while distracting them and cannibals.

Support dont mean youre not killing anything. Its what makes "good" "great".

GI. Support your team well by not letting harm coming to them.

This is a support.

On a more serious note, a support class is one which helps other players fill their role more effectively - whether that is actually implemented or even needed varies from game to game; last time I checked ME did not require them and did not reward them well either - the shipped game didn't even include any support classes (I'd argue that the geth shield recharge turret was the first support item)
