Why is this still allowed? They were only there to shoot each other and damage team mates and they all insta left after the 104 dropped his bombs the I15 was a lvl 6 account with only games in that plane. Why are there no limitations on the max BR spread allowed for vehicles to be taken into a battle?

Because player choice is more important than artificial arcade restrictions.
This isn’t World of Tanks.
Oh, and teamkilling has nothing to do with meme squads.
Report everyone that teamkills.

Because people want to have fun playing the way they want?

There is a difference between “fun” and griefing and this is actively griefing

How is shooting and damaging team-mates a “player’s choice?”
And using vehicles WELL BELOW the BR range of the battle is one of the reasons players choose to ODL. Not good for the game at all.

So fun is subjective? And anything goes as long as it is fun? Great.
Then Im having fun shooting shooting such players down.

The best part is when some clown on your team decides to TK you for daring to shoot down a BR 1 on the ENEMY team. Because apparently bringing a BR 1 into a 14.3 match means nobody is allowed to shoot at you.

You griefing your team shouldn’t be allowed.

Not only that. Scummy behaviour is also endorsed by content creators. Leaving matches because they dont like the map, insta leaving because you got killed from a weird angle you didn’t expect to get shot from, sitting in spawn trying to snipe the helipad, playing 100 battles in your low BR rat tank at top tier just to get 2 clips for your video, …

Likely because there is more than just air RB. In air AB, new players may have a premium jet and some props. And if played normally, the props can do their job.
Air RB is a niche without lineups. The other modes are not.
So someone trying to have fun and maybe get god mode shouldn’t be allowed? Let people enjoy themselves.
No, people shouldn’t be allowed to grief their team.

It’s a video game. Ur meant to have fun. Some ppl just can’t see that. I will always take my L3/33 into top tier, no one can stop me
If “Let people enjoy things” can be used to justify any behaviour, it can justify anything, even warcrimes.
Its a stupid approach to life.

Fine, let people enjoy video games, which is what they are designed for. Is that such a bad thing. Sure, making a squad so that half a top tier team is low tier is annoying, but that isn’t happening. It’s only the occasional game where 1 or 2 people are using low tier vehicles and sometimes actually helping the team if they are good enough.
When I still played higher tier AB frequently, I always took a low tier plane into the lineup. I made it a habbit to farm the 30k SL from godmode whenever it was convenient. Also landing fields is much cheaper in a low tier vehicle.
It just makes sense from the game perspective to do it. In other modes, it is even more evident that a BR restriction is a bad idea. You couldn’t have the Bismarck and a Me 110, Stuka or such in the same lineup. Bismark will be paired with Sabre or Sea Hawk. WTF?
Issue is not everyone in your team consented to that idea of “fun”. I might have activated 500% SL booster only to see at the start of the game that theres a 4 man squad with 3 of them flying biplanes.
Thats 3 less planes putting pressure at the enemy team. Thats 3 less planes taking pressure off me. Thats 3 less planes that might have distracted the enemy attacking me.
All that on top of usual shenanigans and people who bought their way to the top tier.
My chances to actually make use of that 500% booster dropped significantly without me even doing anything wrong beside pressing the “To Battle!” button at the wrong time; something I couldnt have possibly known beforehand.
I could not opt out of this “fun” experience.
My “fun”, which is not disruptive to the normal flow of the game and does not offend my team in any capacity, is now ruined whereas someone whos idea of “fun” is to disrupt the game with uptiering biplanes to top tier.
Its a complex issue, well beyond “just let people enjoy things”.
and frankly people who cant see this are not mature enough to have any sort of meaningful conversation with, as they are still self-centered kids.

Being realistic, this hardly ever happens. At 11.3 I haven’t seen this once in around 50 games.
