Putting more loot into the system - 2 ideas

I'll not start a new thread moaning about the current loot situation, because there are plenty of those already. That said, I still don't think it was the right change to make, but can see that SuperCell is unlikely to backtrack now.

So, how about two new ideas for getting loot into the system. This is coming from a TH8 player currently hovering around the 2000 trophy mark, trying to max before TH9 upgrade. The biggest issues I find are that there are many bases with 30-75k loot, but this won't cover my army cost, and there are also a bunch of TH9/10 with x-bows and infernoes that will be challenging and unlikely to yield as much as the next loaded TH7/8 I find. So, I would like to be incentivised to stay in Crystal and not to drop down like most of my friends have. My ideas:

1) Each time I spend 580 gold to skip a base, put half that gold into their storage. That incentivises people to have good bases, increases available loot, and stops gold just being sucked out of the system.

2) With the demise of the loot multiplier, there is little incentive to attack higher TH's. How about a 2x/3x multiplier on the win bonus, for successfully raiding higher THs? Again, it puts loot back into the system, without making it harder for the poor TH9/10 players to save for their next upgrade.

Just some thoughts. Opinions welcome.

Both good ideas, though the 2) I'd make so that attacking lower Th gives the normal league bonus, attacking equal Th 2x and higher Th 3x, so also us higher ups could actually find some loot.

No.1 Could be abused by a high th player going to low lv trophies

I think both of those ideas are pretty good and would like to see something like that implemented.

Another Idea would be to adjust collectors and this should be done in 2 ways:

1: A small over all percentage increase across the board. This change will affect the global economy a bit stronger so the percentage should be low since it will affect ALL collectors

2: New collector levels for TH9 and TH10, pretty simple one more lvl for each TH, this wont affect global loot as much as you would still need to actually do the upgrade and I still see MANY players out there who are active and have like lvl6 collectors which sucks. Those are normally the same people who complain about loot yet are not adding any into the system with there crappy collectors.

I think both are great ideas. They dont seem to be terribly imbalanced, and actually seem like something Supercell might go for.

The lower they, the less they'd make. Think about it, a th10 in bronze would not be making enough for it to be worth it. For example, gold 3 has a bonus of 5k(roughly). If you earned 2.5k every time someone skipped over you, thats what, an extra 250k each day? If you think about it, you probably dont show up in matchmaking as often as you think.

Probably not that attractive though, as they'd be being skipped by people with lower THs who don't pay as much as we do for each match. Agree there might need to be some provision made for this though.
