Protobear

(Noun, often attributive) //PRO-TOH BEER//

In the DUST 514 (www.dust514.com) - FPS/MMO Hybrid from the people that brought you eve online. A Proto-bear is a character who stays in proto gear and never ventures into unsecured armors such as standard or militia in fear of getting merced. The Protobear will grind and no life their way into top tier gear as soon as possible.

The Protobear often has rage fits which is evident of its constant QQ threads. If provoked the protobear will immediately challenge you to a corp battle. This behavior is believed to have originated from their handheld video game roots. Such as Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Digimon. They will often challenge any offender to a duel or battle. Protobears are often found roaming in packs.

Protobears personality is reminiscent of a 14 year old with self esteem issues and an internet based upbringing, or some 40 year old virgin who dry humps his controller and system for 23 hours a day. They will often forget that Dust 514 is a videogame, and when they brag about their skill (the ability to aim a cross hair on a target while strafing/jumping) it does not mean much to the casual gamer/civilian. The Protobear finds refuge in KD/R, Leaderboard Ranking, and similar stats, it provides comfort and growth to their e-peen.

Protobears are people who wants devs to develop/change games to make their gaming experience easy, safe, and cozy. No risk, no challenge, no realism. Cozy like their eve counterparts the carebear. They often will rage and QQ till their demands are met. Developers and gamers alike do well by letting the protobear weather its tantrum alone.

Phase originated from eve online song made by CCP staffers of Permaband. It implies the use of both the 'module' and the player's mettle to survive eve online. It has been since used by transplants to retort to a scenario that truly calls for an adaptation to the original complaint and that the complaint is invalid from the eyes of the players who had adapted. MAGgots = early beta derogatory term by eve/dust purists about the first bunch players from MAG who had ideas in trying to make the game too similar to what MAG 2 would be. Blueberry = A cute derogatory altenrative to bluedot. Rebberry = Sometimes used in the same context as bluedot/berry except the idiot in question is on the other team and is rather obvious he has a hard time wondering which end of the gun to point at you.
