All I can think of to fix the matter is to:
1. Leave rocketboosing the way it is
2. Increase self-inflicted damage
3. Decrease the number of boosts per jump to two
4. Make rocketboosting a votable variable, ON by default
On a different, but related note, let's remove the hook too, which is "worse" than rocketboosting in a sense. The grappling hook, to use someone else's words, "is lame, it's like cheating." It allows a player to gain an unfair speed advantage, but without a drop in health, unlike rocketboosting.
One might argue, "EVERYONE CAN USE T3H HOOK THO LOL!!" While that may be true, everyone can pick up a rocket spawn just as easily as everyone else. The point is, to remove the boost but keep the hook is a bit foolish; grappling hook is already votable on most servers, so why not do the same with rocketboosting rather than removing it completely?
