With the upcoming accelerated SP week (Jan. 22-29) I propose to make this week a no proto, no advanced gear week.
Yea, I know, but hear me out.
I see people, probably new players, going 0/5, 0/8, 0/12 or even worse in every single match and I can not imagine that these guys are having any fun whatsoever. But we need more people to stick to this game if we want it to succeed.
I'd imagine that many people who have given up on this game might return for this event to see if the game got any better and additionally this event is a good opportunity for new players to catch up on SP.
So what we as a community can do is make it a little easier for those guys to get into the game and have fun without getting roflstomped 23/7. At least for one week.
So, for just this one week, I'd ask everyone of this lovely community to only use standard dropsuits, weapons, and modules in pub matches. (you are free to use whatever you like in FW and PC, of course)
I know I can not stop everyone from using proto gear and the trolls will inevitably keep stomping, but the more people participate the better.
even without advanced gear veterans will still have more than enough bonuses from their skills and knowledge about the game to distinguish themselves from the rest of the people. You can not lose anything, except your KDR might take a slight hit, if you care for such silly things.
So, if you are with me on this, please let your corpmates know about this aswell, and refrain from using anything but standard gear for this one week. Just 1 week.
Thanks.

Since we get 5x the SP per match but the cap is only 3x as normal shouldn't we be able to vcap out faster anyway?

Hahaha, seems like there are more douchebags in this community than I thought... jk, jk! (but it is true)
I'm surprised that ML has such a bad reputation (I personally never use proto suits in pub matches.) and I want to make clear that I'm not officially speaking for ML. This proposal is not an official ML one but a personal one from my side. I can not say if any of my corpmates will join me, but I hope so.
Yes, I agree that it is upon CCP to improve the new player experience, but I think we as a community also can do something to make this game more fun for new players every once in a while. At least for as long as the NPE is not fixed. I don't think that this is too much to ask for.
But I can also understand if people want to use this event to grind a ton of WP, so I have a new proposal: Lets try to keep at least one game mode, lets say pub Skirmishes, free from stomping.
Maybe I was aiming too high with my first proposal, but I hope we can all agree on this one.
Thanks.

Ok guys, no proto week starting in a few minutes.
I'd like to thank everyone who is willing to participate and keep pub Skirmishes free from proto and advanced gear to make life a little easier for new players.
If you are not willing to quit using proto gear I'd ask you to not play pub Skirmishes and instead use the other game modes to stomp and farm WP.
Thanks.

Nyansan/chan (no surprise) Mottqnai japan (no surprise) Ravenclaw something or other
That's as of 12:52 dust time. Will update as more become known Please do not call people out. It won't help.
Also you can't say for sure if they are deliberately ignoring (or even trying to exploit) this event or if they just don't know about it. Not everyone is reading the forums.
Just keep using standard-only fittings yourself and ignore the trolls.
Thanks.
