Actually, reducing the exchange rate for fleet marks to credits might not be a bad idea. At the moment, it's trivial to get the credits you need by just turning doffing XP into fleet marks. I haven't felt any pressure to do anything but that for FC for a long time.
2 fleet credits for 1 dil payout could work (no higher though) with a reduction in payout for fleet marks down to 1:1. There would need to be an adjustment somewhere to compensate for the extra 6% fleet marks. Doff fleet credit payouts would probably have to be reduced and fleet credit pricing on fleet gear would have to go up.
Also a 1:1 payout on fleet marks would likely not be well received. I think people could stomach 10 fleet credits for 1 fleet mark. However that would require an even greater adjustment to the system. Doff payouts would have to be reduced to almost nothing and fleet credit pricing would have to go even higher. It could work but it would take some numbers crunching on Cryptic's part.

Personally I think it would be worth it even at 1:1 for marks. Dilithium is far more valuable than fleet marks. FMs are only used for one thing and there's no limit on how many you can gather in a day, while dilithium is used on everything and is time gated. Dil is the last thing to fill on any project in my fleet.
Most fleets seem to have more of an issue with duty officer donations than they do with dilithium. Fortunately, our fleet figured that part out a long time ago. We haven't had dilithium or duty officer donation issues in years.
