No thanks.

SP and equipment are over rated. I personally want to be able to use milita equipment on enemies who have 3x my SP and wearing better equipment. Nothing as satisfying as taking down a proto suit with militia weapons.

Using an alt I have consistently been doing 2 to 1 KDR's, or better, using 100% militia (and Merc Pack dropsuits) and coming in near the top of the kills for that match, even against well armed and high XP opponents.
Teamwork and skill > SP and Gear any day.

I would be pizzed if CCP restricted who I could face up to.

Please READ! my post.
Its TIRESOME seeing folks that want to beatup noobs.
If you are that good then go play with folks on your level.

And you might want to reread his post instead of yelling at him to reread yours. He said he wants to use militia gear against higher SP characters, not beat up on noobs. You've got it reversed.

Then we also need a suicide zone for those who are low levels but want to face higher level folks.

There are some skills that are the same in both games (i.e. corporation skills at the moment, more to come in the future). By removing the cap, you provide an unbalanced product as Dust bunnies will be able to outperform Eve pilots on those skills, which would be unbalancing. As for your other suggestions, something similar is coming. Right now, we are in high security systems and a handful of low security systems only. Eventually, we will be playing in all low security and null security space. With these new settings, there will be a different set of engagement rules. Please be patient to see what is planned; who knows it might be better than your idea. :) As for the HP of the suits, I agree. There is not enough meaning at the higher skill suits right now to justify the cost.

Then we also need a suicide zone for those who are low levels but want to face higher level folks. I think the type of segmentation you are proposing is too granular, and don't agree with you. I suggest letting the game developers determine the best way to balance the zones between high, low, and null security. They've done a good job with it in Eve, so I trust them to figure out the best balance here.
