something like this i am guessing.
Really, most holy/prot ppl are this a prot pally in PvP holy gear. Their talents in the holy tree don't make a massive difference for them. You are also sacrificing a lot of dps for those talents in the tree, that is why i haven't known any holy/prot builds with high arena scores i believe.

look at the parameters... does everyone on the paladin boards these days need big %^&*ing flashing letters to notice things?

The link is a lot of holy paladins, but it doesn't show their arena scores and the ppl i clicked on who had the highest gear score all had bad arena scores and the ones that didn't were ranked high in 5v5 teams.
If you go holy/prot u are spending time healing that should be spent doing interupts and damage. If the team needed a healer, they would had gotten a holy pally who can move and instant heal or another healing class.
A prot pally that went into the ret tree brings more dps and won't be spending valuable time healing instead of interupting and damaging the oppodent.
A ret pally brings its own healing and massive burst, and can send a instant FoL to a teamate if it is necessary.
All bring great things, but i see ret and prot in the ret tree brining more to a team than holy/prot build. I also see more handicaps in the holy build than the other builds.
On a final note, the ppl ik who have done arena had mentioned that holy/prot this makes the fight longer and their teamate usually ends up dieing making it a 2v1 match in 2v2 teams, meaning the holy/prot build gimps the team.
Edit: I also have never done arena before (satellite internet is a big handicap for me to do arena).

They are mostly 19/52/0 speced and have a 2v2 rating of 2950+
Meaning they are capped.
it's not a 5v5 spec, it's a 2v2 spec.
This is the reason Blizzard is changing the Touched By The Light mecahnics in 3.2.2, it makes prot healers too poweful in 2v2s.
They do not DPS, they are dedicated healers.

Did S6 this end, cuz all of their scores were near 0 when i clicked on them (can't check cuz my server is still down).
Edit: Nvm my server is up now, I am guessing S7 this started and that is why i saw them as 0.
Edit: if what u say is true, then i take back my previous post. I had never faced a holy/prot pally in 1v1 and had the fight actually end, it was this a constant fight with neither of us getting anywhere, or until i accidently double click my divine plea and canceling it 2 times during the fight (first time i would this drink a potion).
Edit: fix grammar mistakes.
