There will be nothing to kill if no one will fly a dread/station.

Even I think 5k for a station is a bit extreme.
Where we are at now is fine for prestige loss. What we want is a more dramatic scaling for players above the rank of Admiral.
As it stands, there is already a modifer in place that the higher your rank, the more prestige you lose. Its not a huge difference unelss you compare Midshipman to CM.
If you really want to fix the spam, you want to attack the core of the problem : that players have far too much prestige to waste, and that getting it back is too easy for those same players.
Since I'm not a fan of cutting back the gain, I'm more of a fan of boosting the loss on players who get to the rank of major Dreads and Stations.
This way, it punishes older players who waste their ships and should know better, and newer players get plenty of time to figure things out before they get to that point.
This kind of philosophy also tends to support the notion that demotion is just as much of a possibility as getting promoted, and that ranks above FA tend to actually be a challenge to get and keep.

Agree with Ent above.
People seem to have forgotten that this is not World of Warcraft, and your level/rank is not something that can never be lost.
Demotions all round!

i agree with ent also tho gaining pres is hard for me at most i only gain 500 aday it may be easy for every one eles but most of the time when i do gain that 500 somethin stupid happens (lag smash into planet you put your ship to orbit the planet and you start lookin at f2 then bam you die) or you go thro a gate to escape interdictor only to still be dictored even after 2k gus away from the gate point being i really dont see how ppl gain 3-4 k pres a day let alone 14k pres in 1 day its not my playin style i dont jump into battles i cant win i stay at a distance and fighter spam the battle comes to me cuz UGTO love me alot and cant keep there niffty beams off me point is leave things how they are its bad enough how it is i lose 600 pres every time i die (in dread and station) and i lose bout 300 in cruiser 1death= my days earning of pres they say dont die well its hard when getting jumped and your jd takes bout 6 minutes to charge -GA Ray has spoken

dude your doing something wrong i play off and on i can get on in 1 to 2 hours i can make 3k to 4k pres with a cruiser or dread it not hard but if your only using fighters or missles or both then that your problem you dont gain alot of press of them
not to mention i also bomb and cap ships there good ways to gain pres to. that the problem with this game now. back when i started all ships where used to achive victory now your just hope in dread or station and people wonder why they cant gain pres
