Constantly running full proto in pubgames ?

You should be given a reward as the biggest reason why new players quit this game, seriously everyone show your appreciation by joining me in a very slow clap

*Clap*

-I don't mind you doing it v us, you lose a hell of a lot of ISK when you come up against us in ADV gear but when it comes to people new out of the academy being steamrolled by 6 people in full proto in top tier vehicles with proto mods its overkill

-Yes congratulations you can kill kittens using a sledgehammer but enough is enough, try using ADV once in a while or go do your protoscrubbing in FW/PC v other people using proto .. it begs the question .. is the only reason you can get kills because your in proto v new players and when you're up against people at your level you get decimated ?

-Yes yes it's their gear, their ISK they can do what they want but if that means sacrificing 10,000 potential players just so they can have a few minutes redlining the opposition is it really worth it ?

-CCP if you are so intent on bug fixes etc over adding new content then do something about the protostomping in pubgames it's out of hand and is seriously damaging your game, every single review i've looked at of this game says the same thing ... it's about as attractive a game to play for a new player as it is to slam your head with a car door .. Yes I know someone will say HTFU New Eden is tough ... but this kind of tough is the equivalent of putting a new born baby in a forest in alaska and leaving it there to survive saying HTFU ...

-WTF aren't the only people who do this however most of the other corps that have a tendency to run full proto do most of it in FW/PC and have actually be seen using non proto gear in pub games ..

-I get told it's CCP fault for having a broken system however it isn;t just the fault of the people who have the broken system it's also the fault of the people who abuse that system too and just because you can protostomp doesn't mean it's okay to do so. I can technically sleep with your wife does that mean it's fine if I do so because their is no rule against it ??

TL;DR If enough people put down their protogear in pubgames and point and laugh at those that don't then maybe one day Pubgames will be fun for all and not just another medium for the guys with sucky lives to feel important

Proto in fw is fine but not in pubs I think.
