First of all, allow me to say that this post is aimed towards people like me: Proto-stompers with more ISK than they really need who never would run anything lower than proto because it would negatively affect their kill-death ratio.
Anyway, last week a friend, who doesn't really like the fact that I run nothing but proto, challenged me to a militia contest. The only rule was we had to use a fit that was fully militia, nothing basic, no BPOs like the Krin's Damage Mod, just militia gear. We played a few matches like this, and it was terrible. The Minmatar Frontline is nothing like my MinAssault, but it was also so much fun!
This isn't a thread for people to brag about how they kill proto suits with militia, or for people to say that they are too mighty to dirty their hands with militia gear, it is for me to invite other players like me to experience this fun.
From now on I, and hopefully some of you(let's be honest, none of you), will be running around in a fully militia suit every Friday.
This is a challenge to you proto-stompers out there: For just one day a week, pull out some of the worst gear in the game. Just like we tell the new players, go out there, have fun, and die a lot.
Also, if there is actually some interest in this, should I make chat channel for us to squad up on Fridays so we can get destroyed together? Tell me what you guys think.

Militia Monday is a thing in some circles.
Let's throw in a Weak Fit Wednesday while we're at it.
A Sh!t fit Sunday.
Solo Saturday.
Teamplay Thursday where you squad up with noobs to teach them well... ya know.
And of course Taco Tuesday.
Most of what I see around here is just a bag of dicks in need of some kicks.
Dust really needs its high sec.

I have 37 million SP, and I don't use proto in pubs. I always use starter fits in pubs, you can make so much isk that way and I now have no use for either standard nor advanced gear. Only starter fits and proto gear for PC.

I don't like militia gear cluttering my inventory. I would use standard BPO's fitted with militia modules and weapons.

I always use starter fits in pubs, you can make so much isk that way and I now have no use for either standard nor advanced gear. Only starter fits and proto gear for PC. Yeah! Now you're talking! I have over 100mill ISK basicly because I don't spend it on anything and I use BPOs for everything including pubs and FW. Yeah, I die a lot, but I kill a lot, too, and it costs me nothing.
People get so used to the crutch of good fits I reckon they lose something of their skills by running ADV and PRO gear all the time. I'd rather die a lot and learn to use BPO gear than endlessly be spending ISK on replacing fits I lost trying to "git gud" the easy way. I pick my battles. I can't stand up to even a PRO Scout in a BPO, but I can hold my own against other BPOs. But some of them kill me too, I can tell from their fighting style that they know what they're doing and they're just using MLT gear in pubs.
For the record, an APEX BPO really isn't that much better than a STARTER fit. Yes, it has Basic level gear but that's not much better than MLT really. In fact, I find my Frontline-CA with its ARR better than my Rasetsu with its RR.... |

Wow, this has gotten more attention than I thought it would, and the discussion has been more or less on topic. Sweet!
So, is anyone like me actually planning on doing this?

The trick to not becoming rusty while spamming proto in matches is to do enough PC. And play ambush. Bush is where all the stomping fags congregate.

If we're just talking about slaying the trick is to run solo, PC's are easy compared to getting stuck on the sh!tty team running around like headless chickens vs stacked proto squads that are q-syncing. At least in PC's you usually got a somewhat competent team that is working together.
Most of what I see around here is just a bag of dicks in need of some kicks.

Planning on running some starter GA for fun this weekend after being inspired by this guy running pubs in Starter AM and putting on a show by my scrub standards:
