This isn't a bad idea. 
What do you think about doubling the cost of Proto gear?

The only way to prevent it is to have gear based/ meta based matchmaking, else stompers will stomp because they can.
I think that offering optional ISK sinks - like SKINs, BPOs, trading - as well as increasing the cost of Proto gear, coupled with changes to PC payouts would help the situation. Very simply, people are more inclined to use Proto gear not only because they like to stomp, but because there is nothing else to spend their ISK on.
Take a player like saxonmish for example (no offence to him). He certainly doesn't have 'billions of ISK', and is in fact very close to being broke. If the cost of Proto gear were increased, he would certainly be unable to spam Proto as he does now, which is detrimental to the NPE.

Awesome, it will mean more people can't afford to run it - in other words, those that can afford to run it will continue to, those that cant will jump into their apex suits. Those that don't have Apex suits will continue to be stomped. So. Nothing really changes just stuff costing more. Even at double the price I have enough isk to run proto for another 1.5-2 years (hope to god I won't still be playing then) And there are players with 2,3,5,7,10 times more isk than me.
That's why we need more ISK sinks to dry up all the excess ISK.

That's why we need more ISK sinks to dry up all the excess ISK. If there were SKINs or other cool stuff that could be purchased for a high ISK price, that might help.
Or would you prefer to wipe everyone's ISK?
