I personally use BPOs in pub matches; I do well enough with them so I don't feel the need to spend ISK to get a slight upgrade. Having the Toxin, Exile and Raven Type-I doesn't hurt either...
I have ~16mil ISK sitting in my wallet right now; I give to my corp when I feel I need to, and give to poor or new corp-mates who need it more than me. I don't need all of it, even if I were running my good stuff.
Unless you need to use your best equipment, use lesser stuff to build up an ISK reserve (not necessarily militia, but a mix of militia and standard works well enough IMO). And if you're a (good) vehicle driver in a corp, maybe ask some people to help you out when you do well with your vehicle (you have to be playing in a group too) since they are so expensive, but also very useful to everyone (when used properly), but don't beg lol. If one of my drivers needed some ISK to fund vehicles I would give some since they are a great asset to my team. However, if you're not a driver, don't ask unless you are that desperate; militia and standard equipment does not cost a lot and downgrading is always an option.
EDIT: And lol lil...not everyone is as good as you are... |

Projected planetary invasion costs right now is around 10-30 billion for an entire planet for starters.
See those big flying ships on some game mode? One day you will need to bring one of your own to a fight to deal the enemies. See some of those buildings you're fighting though? you'll have to pay for ones you need if the one you take over isnt to your liking. List goes on and it all starts to get very very very expensive.
At that point, though, we'll have EVE pilots to back us up. They will be hiring us, funding our conquests in their names. And if we don't have them backing us, we won't be there to aid them.
For now, all we can do is compare things as they are; ISK is worth far more to us than it is to capsuleers. Eventually...the value will most likely even out. But for now, we see things very differently. |

Not that it's terribly important but how does your kd hold up doing it this way? averaged 2 to 1 during my last reset when I decided to militia lock myself
I'm not running full-militia (however, I am running full BPOs in pub matches with a few, very rare exceptions) and I have over a 2.5 overall KDR (which is better than my goal of 2.0). |
