Do you mean getting dil. rewards for STFs is better than nothing? My point is that the opposite is true. It'd be better to get nothing for STFs while keeping the large reward for a Fleet Action than it is to split the dilithium reward between the two. You now have to play twice the amount of scenarios (twice the amount of time) to get the same amount of dilithium that you could get from just 1 fleet action previous to this change.
Fleet Actions were alive and kicking for about a day, when it rewarded 1440 Dilithium. Now it's back to being dead again as players realize the Dilithium is back to being not worth the time it takes to finish it.
Cryptic, put it back to 1440 for Fleet Actions, and put a numerical counter back on the queues so we know how many people are in the queue so we can make a more informed decision on whether to wait around or not.

The STF missions are infinitely more fun than the giant CF that the fleet actions are. I'd rather play STf than those things. Give us dilithium for doing Colony Invasion, Incursion, Blockade, or Red Alert, and then we'll talk.
When devs took away dil from STF and awarded dil for FAs, the community whines... because FAs are boring, bla bla bla, STF more fun, bla bla bla..
When they reversed course and give dil back to STF and reduced FA, the community whines again...STF too hard, FA easier, bla bla bla..
This kind of ambivalent community behaviour basically shows devs that the community feedback cannot be taken seriously.
There was no conflict in what the community was saying at all. We asked for dil to be put back into STF. We did NOT ask for it to be taken out of fleet actions. That was unilaterally and unprovokedly Cryptic. I don't like those missions very much, but there are people who do. I am totally in favor of people playing those for their dil if that's what they enjoy playing. I just don't understand why we can't have dil on both things. It's not like the cooldowns are an obstacle to chaining together either fleet actions or STF, if you only want to do one of them.

Everything needs to balance out. Now, you get some from STF for STF junkies and you get some from FA for FA junkies.
Like in real life, can't have too much of everything. Learn to live with what we have and have the scarcity mindset.
