I was thinking this earlier. I'm sure it'd still be one side stomping the other but I rather just get my ass kicked than have my d!ck kicked in. It'd just make pubs overall better; sure most of us will still be getting those lvl 5 bonuses but they're less of an advantage on advance and less than they are on proto & officer.
At the very least, officer should be prohibited in pubs; the amount I've seen is just fcking ridiculous.

Simple solution, up the payout. Edit: Payouts are pretty sh!t now as it is. Not like these proto/officer stompers die much anyways except when they have the balls to stay in a match against other proto/officer stompers.

It's true skills are less of an advantage, but they're really not insignificant.
I fail to see how less of an advantage is the same as insignificant (I've personally been one to state how most people underestimate the impact skills have). Anyways, here's a simple solution to the lvl 5 problem, make only up to lvl 3 of a skill apply. Of course there's still the advantage, like how I've got prof in some weapons and others don't but then that's part of the point of the game. It's not nearly as bad as a full blown vet going balls to the walls in proto/officer with lvl 5 everything while still maintaining the progression aspect of the game. Otherwise we might as well just make pubs automatically apply lvl5 for everything to everyone; honestly I wouldn't be apposed to that and even as far as having pubs not use up fits. A little care bearish but fck, if that's what it takes for the game to grow then I'm all for it. Hell, now that I think about it, that's kind of what we fcking need, a goddamn high sec, sh!t EVE"s got it and it's a relativity safe area, why the fck doesn't Dust? make pubs high sec and leave FW & PC as null for the HTFU crowd.

If you are having a hard time vs them, either A. Pull out proto B. Counter the guy giving you a hard time. C. Git bud D. Leave battle
I hear that a lot but never see it. Which is why I think CCP should have a militia event similar to the templar event. New character that can't gain or spend SP, so all these "I'll stomp you in lesser gear" bitches can put up or shut up.

The best solution is non sharing of scans, only the operator of the scanner sees on his tacnet.
keep your proto squads and social aspect, and use your communication to get enemy position from your gal logi.
That only hurts solo players and noobs that don't know what the barrels, table top, anvils, hangers, mushrooms, etc... are.

Sorry I did kinda put words in your mouth there.[....], my guess is that CCP never intended PRO to be used in pubs at all.
Well to be fair, I'm glad you put words in my mouth, otherwise I wouldn't have thought to further clarify my position. Whether or not CCP intended for proto to be used in pubs they did originally intend for it to be rarely used. I'm sure they knew that some players would be able to afford to use it in pubs but it certainly wasn't meant to be spammed as if it were basic and officer was meant to only be used in battles that actually mattered like PC's instead of being thrown around like candy.

So I'm guessing you've been around a fair bit longer than me, what do you think are the chances that the stat equalization idea could get any traction with the CPM?
I've been around since open beta but I don't really know the members of CPM all that well. Most of them I wouldn't willingly associate with based on the corps they've been in or are in. Some are content with the stompus quo, Darth for example, I've seen him and his ilk stomp the ever living sh!t out of teams that couldn't make it out of the redline several times and then blame CCP for it when I confronted him about it instead of accepting the fact they chose to do it.
With CPM, I'll be generous enough to say your guess is as good as mine. However with CCP, if they want this game to grow, stat equalization should gain some traction. Then again that's barring them being concerned with getting more money than more players as the current state of the game encourages buying AUR more than stat equalization would.
