I carried myself with ADC from 700 elo to 1600. And yeah as you said below 1400ish or even in the 1400s, people just don't peel for ADC and it's frustrating. When I was smurfing in 1300s I learn that the hard way after 2 team fights. I had to change my playstyle completely for whenever I smurfed.

Works, I guess. My personal problem with going ADC on rankeds with strangers, is that if they get too good gap closers (say Nocturne and Shaco) I might get initiated early on and totally ignored by my team mates. People just don't get the whole "protect the carry" thing at 1350- Elo
Tell me about it. Was playing as Tristana in ranked yesterday, and in every teamfight, their Fiddlesticks would ult onto me through a wall, fear and drain me to death, and my team would just completely ignore him because they'd already picked their targets. Worst thing about it was knowing that he was going to do it from somewhere, and that even with my Quicksilver Sash and Buster Shot, I couldn't interrupt his combo fast enough to save myself.
