Leadership and organization bring success. It can bring success even with "less-skilled" or novice players provided they have discipline.

Planetside culture evolved into the small leetfits that were sometimes not even half a squad. The prospect of "less skilled" players coming in and beating such groups with organization and discipline is highly threatening to that culture.

When the larger and organized groups come in they render the small groups irrelevant. Naturally they lash out at them

Leadership is a skill.
Discipline is a skill.
Organization is a skill.

They just aren't the skills you might value, but they get results and they make a difference. Larger outfits know this. So do smaller outfits, though they loathe to admit it because it threatens their recruitment and reputation.
