Esteemed members of the Factional Warfare community, we all know FW needs help. Currently there seem to be nothing but farmers in these FW sites (plexes, colloquially) flying warp stabbed cloaky ships that run at the first hint of trouble from any size gang. Plexing is boring, and the name of the game is warfare... so I propose:

Loyalty point gain should be reworked to provide more points for engaging in combat than capping a plex. Obtaining a meager 120 LP for a kill is lame considering capping a medium plex will net you 3500 +/-. This would encourage more players to fit and fly rather than stab and run.

Secondly, the farmers will plex to the point where the faction LP is not worth as much, and then change to the other side, taking only a 24hour timeframe penalty to join the opposing milita to do it all again. I think that there should be a period where you cant join the opposing side, just like how you cant just ride back into hisec after deciding not to be a pirate anymore. You should have to grind status or something.

Lastly, system tier bonuses are lame. They should have something to do with the combat or rewarding of LP rather than adjust broker fees and pod prices.

Thanks for reading.

Making a kill worth more than the cost of the kill is an obvious farming loophole.

So we just leave broke broken? I get that it is most likely done like that to prevent killfarming.

What about my other points?
