Make Sls and Commanders only available to much higher levels

I do like that idea, but I'm not sure if SL should only get bolts. They are a bit more involved in the front line. TL definitely should not have SMGs or self loading rifles.
you guys must be playing the wrong servers. team leader only has rifle on the ones I played all day yesterday.
Whenever I play the Japanese squad leader I use the bolt, and I think I'm pretty involved in the battle. Bolts are far from a hinderence to front line troops.
I wouldn't mind the bolt thing but I feel there aren't enough people playing SL and TL as it is. I consider both pretty easy to play (TL is just difficult to learn, SL mostly just needs to stay alive) so I see no reason why low level players shouldn't be allowed. It's a completely different skill set from playing a normal role, so if you're high level from doing other things that doesn't mean you'd be good at SL or TL.
Why anyone would put more stock in the cheesy "honor rating" system in this game is beyond me. Ever heard of bot servers?

I say YES, a TL who is doing nothing or artying the area in front of a cap that we have to conquer is one frustation.
Let the newcomers firstly watch how the veterans are doing it.
But there are enough almost empty servers in which they can exercise with bots and to know the maps etc better.

Yea i only play bolt rifleman unless there is AT class open. But what ive seen when lower level players take SQ or TL, we sometimes fail. Just because the SQ were dying alot. Other than that, its up to the Rifleman to do the job. A SOLID team of Rifleman can win a match WITHOUT even using ARTY ONCE. This had happen to me one day in a server where nobody wanted to take TL so went the match without a TL. we won that round. Solid Riflemen players > Artillery support anyday of the week. But yes, let newbies take those spots once in a while. Im a ROOST veteran so would you get mad at me for going SQ or TL even though my rank is basically 0 because i never take the role but DO KNOW how to use it? There are players like that you know.
No bolts don't require one to stay behind. It's just that the SL seems to be almost some sort of variation of assault with his spawning and what not. I think if a SL wants an SMG that shouldn't be a problem.
