It was an exaggeration, but it's a pretty common thing for many people in the community to be asking for. And everyone agrees protostomping is bad, and buffing Prototype gear while nerfing the rest is very clearly NOT going to help with that.
CCP could just simply lower the price of proto suits to make them much more affordable to everyone else. Proto dropsuits gain a lot of power, but also cost too much, allowing only the rich to spam proto and protostomp while the other team can only afford standard and advanced.
Make proto suits much cheaper. More people can use proto suits on the field. A counter to protostomps. Fight fire with fire.

The only tiericide we need is to remove dropsuit tiers and make them all equivalent to the current proto suits, unlocked at level 1 of the appropriate skill. Then the skill should be reworked to provide some skill to the suit, just like every ship operation skill does in EVE. The skill bonuses would be easy: just take the racial assault bonuses and apply those to the regular suits, then give assaults a defensive bonus in addition to the fitting reduction bonus on weapons.

If you're unable to kill me in my prototype suit there's a very small chance that me being ADV will give you much more of an edge.
Tiercide player skill CCP, that'll teach them protostompers for being better!
Hmmm. Going ADV->PRO for me gives me 200 EHP more. Which is almost a 33% boost.
And there have been countless amounts of times that I needed just that much more EHP to finish off my opponent or successfully run away.
But sadly I'm sitting on a mere 3 million and it's going neither up or down while running advanced, so I cannot afford proto suits to give me the edge, either in combat or for running away.
