Why don't we make PRO suits and weapons cheap so everyone can afford to run it every match 24/7? That would help balance things
This argument is so stupid it hurts. I run Pro minnie all day and make profits. If you stop being bad you could too.
But you don't tank or play infantry at any sort of respectable skill level so your opinion really is irrelevant.
1.) I could do very well in all PRO gear. I just can't afford to run it in anything but PC. Not everyone has a fat stack of cash and an ISK machine know as Molden Heath ya know.
2.) That's really hurtful coming from someone who I've yet to see in a match.
So your saying that PRO modules and gear should be cheaper? No.
(Also, why don't you actually address the argument being given to you instead of resorting to name calling and ad hominem. It usually makes your "argument" seem a whole lot more credible)
I edited my post. I was so taken aback by the stupidity of your statement I forgot to reply to it.
You just said you cant make a profit in pubs with pro gear. I do on my minnie. So I should be able to make profit on my std tanks, according to what you say.

When a newberry comes into Learning Coalition chat and asks me to teach him how to tank, I say "no, get a good infantry game first, because tanking is not sustainable. It will not increase your KDR in accordance with how much isk you will lose in the process." then when they have a G-1 with an AR and their core skills up i consider it, but i dont encourage wannabe tankers to tank. it just makes them into someone who will quit the game.
This promotes the dying game circle I illustrated earlier.
EDIT: Also Char, Ive seen you about 5 times in game so far, usually FW I believe (might have just been skirmish) and I've never seen you run a tank.
If you didn't have a ridiculous amount of SP already built up, you would be running starter fits. I saw you murkin with that GEK.
