Its not salvage you make the cash off of, its the LP gear you get cash off of, and you get LP every match, win or lose. |

The problem is while you make LP every match, if the open market is not implemented at the same time as the FW changes, FW players will be making LP ONLY and no ISK. These FW players could then obtain LP store rewards, but would not be able to sell it which until the open market is implemented would make FW a huge ISK sink. |

LP are Loyalty Points - a currency used to by Naval Issue gear. For example if you fight for the Amarr, you'll gain LP to go towards Amarr Navy items. These Naval Issue items may have different slot layouts, bonuses, and color schemes that will ensure you stand apart from the run of the mill duster.
The idea that CCP has envisioned is that FW players will accrue tons of LP and therefore tons of Naval Issue items that they can then sell for tons of ISK on the open market...problem is THE OPEN MARKET DOESN'T EXIST YET. If the FW changes and the open market aren't implemented at the same time, what will happen is that FW players will not be making any ISK, and will also have a lot of Naval Issue items they cannot sell for ISK at the time either (think of all the salvage you currently have and cannot sell, it'll be akin to that). |
