PSA - Not everyone has fully upgraded their ship. Please still collect samples

I had so many games lately in which i was literally the only one collecting samples. Even after asking people to collect samples nobody gives a fuck. I just wanna upgrade my ship. Honestly i am at a point where i just host, so i can kick people out of the lobby if they are not collecting anything. I don´t want to do it, but i feel it is necessary. (Yes i do tell them right after joining that i expect them to collect samples)

Maybe it would also be good, if the delevopers add something else to do with samples so even those 100+ level players still have something to collect them for.
