This is the very mindset that keeps the top players on top. People like you think more ISK leads to more stomps. I say more ISK leads to better gear the stompers face in a given battle. If minimum pay is the same with or without work, what is the likely action? It's already been inarguably proven that increased payouts promote rougher matches There was that time when payouts were bugged and what happened ..The fights got rougher newer players felt comfortable running higher end gear people actually fought back Satisfying payouts promote better fights FW does pretty much what is being suggested, guving high payouts to the winners and low payouts to the losers. Wearing your best suit and squadding up is promoted. How is that working out? In my view, rally bad.
FW was significantly more competitive when ISK was a facet.
Since it was removed in favour of LP I've personally seen a huge decrease in competitiveness from both Amarr and Minmatar factions.

Those were my personal Dust golden days. Before LP when I could run FW and have great competitive games.
The pun is always intended.
We built FW the communities up from nothing into mildly capable groups of players. I used to look forwards to FW even though I would lose million of ISK because we'd get damn bitter and competitive fights against some really top groups.
Moreover you made friends and enemies in the process. I mean when PIE started fully supporting a bombing campaign in FW matches day in day our alongside us man we made some Minmatar cry.
