Play however you find fun. If through some logic I don't understand you find joy in trying hard, then go ahead. I personally gave up on it and just started rolling double plasma cannon fits and the likes.
PLC's are waaaaay too much fun. Knocking snipers/roof campers off of roofs and fending off dropships are all WAAAY more fun with a PLC, though unfortunately the latter is much more challenging than most non-PLC users would think. I've nailed several normal dropships out of the sky, but I've only managed to kill about 10-12 ADSs in my entire time using it : /

I bring out proto when I am losing so I can help my team come back. Also, proto is literally the only fun suits to wear, because basic myos suck and basically all basic modules are trash (with some exceptions.)
I believe he may be referring to those who pull proto or officer gear out only when there's only 8 people left on the other side because the rest of the enemy team all quit, or when your team is obviously superior and the other team is getting rekt already. In an even, balanced match or when your team is losing and you are trying to fight back I don't see an issue with it. But when it's used for beating on an already dead team, it's a seriously wrong thing to do.
That said, I run almost exclusively proto because for some reason the mu almost always puts me up against proto/officer squads. The reason I run it is to support my team because typically I see no other proto on my side. When I don't see proto or officer on the other side I'll either run my Adv Minmando with a PLC and Acr or my Apex Minassault with an Exile and Syndicate typically. When I end up in an ambush where the other team only has 3-5 people I'll throw on a proto suit and suicide into them to be sure they get their SP for the match and if they don't manage it I've been known to send them 1-3Mil just to make sure they aren't going to be that guy who decides to rage quit and delete the whole game that match.
I've been doing my part for helping the other team to have a chance and for new players to hopefully stick around for a long time now because unlike many of us who've been here a long time, I haven't forgotten how hard things can be. (not saying that's you, just saying in general about the playerbase) Proto/Officer gear is a part of it, but so are core skills, adaptability available to us due to high SP, necessary modules for different tanking methods, weapon variety for range and DPS options, ISK availability, map familiarity, etc., etc., etc. It's easy to say they need to adapt and grind it out but things have never been so bad for new players than it is now and it will only get worse as more people continue to gain the advantages mentioned above.
