"buff" to collectors/drills/mines

ok, so there are players that don't actually upgrade their collectors and just rely on raiding 24/7

and since they don't upgrade collectors, they kinda "unlootable" in a sense that they don't generate their own resources, IMO, it's kinda unhealthy, (since you just take and take, and if somebody tries to loot you, you're not gonna lose that much because you have a low lvl collector)

I don't think this was suggested before, I don't know if this is possible to code

but I'm thinking of *buffing* the collectors a bit, so that it "may" encourage these pure raiders

when we attack, and get stars, each star will give .5 hour progression for collectors (I attacked and get 2 stars, all of my collectors will get 1 hour worth of resources, if I have 3 stars, all of the collectors will get 1.5hour worth of resources, this should stack with boost too, to also encourage consuming gems for boosts )

If they are looting constantly then there should be a fair amount in their storages... Besides some people DO have high level collectors at low levels and I'm guessing that you are a rather low level player. The higher you get the higher level collectors you can raid. Also I have never had any trouble with this.

OP is referring to the players that are high level but with low level collectors/mines I believe and he is saying there should be an incentive for them to upgrade the mines/collectors to higher levels.
One flaw in the idea is that for the people who leave the TH out and give away one star, not only do they get a 12hr shield, but they also get 0.5 hour worth of loot? Especially for DE, thats quite a bit. And people would start to break their shield constantly for free loot.

I don't see this as solving any real issue with the game. If people are good at raiding and don't want to upgrade mines/collectors... so be it. How is this a problem that needs to be solved ?

i dont see how the raiders' playing style is a problem... its their strategy, they also have some disadvantages, so i dont think it should be fixed.

No he is saying the person who attacks and does so successfully gets a bonus. Therefore if they have high lvl collectors it benefits them even more.

Sorry but I don't really like it.
First off if they are good raiders they probably have a lot in their storage, don't rely on collector raiding.
Secondly, The boost after attacking would be op.... you could run around sniping farming bases around the 1400 trophy range, as you see more farming bases than trophy bases.
To me it sounds like all you want to do is raid collectors using barch or sending in tons of goblins. To that I say learn how to attack. I have found plenty of bases that have a good amount in storages.
Don't get me wrong, I like lvl 10 and 11 collectors full to the max too, but if that's all you are relying on is collector raiding then there is your first problem.
