Well, first off, take online with a grain of salt, since lag changes the entire game. Don't take it too seriously.
How long have you been playing fighting games? Is MK the first game you're playing with serious intent to improve? From your post, it sounds like you're new to higher-level play; I would imagine your problem is simply underdeveloped fundamentals.
It's really, really, really hard to just explain to someone how to "be good." I could say, pressure using jump-in punch to 3,1~throw... but that advice is meaningless when the real issue might be that you can't properly set yourself up to DO a jump-in punch in the first place.
Do you understand Ermac's overall game plan? Do you feel comfortable with basics like dash-blocking, footsies, and the concept of proper spacing? I'm guessing your issues like with things like these.
The absolutely best thing you could do is get us a few matches of you playing. It doesn't matter if its just your digital camera recording your TV - anything where we could see you play would be great. Be sure to post some matches of you losing, of course, so we could tell you what you could've done.
If you were on PSN I'd add you and play you myself and go from there. Maybe an XBL person here could play a set with you and give you insights.
