    No. They don't believe trying makes any difference. And they're mostly correct. Besides, now we've discovered FL is a venue for ERP, they've probably got better things to do. Talk about fraternizing with the enemy, eh?

    The only way to remove the people who are only interested in rewards is to remove rewards.

    Here's a scenario. I forget how the daily roulette XP works in detail, but it's probably the case that the most efficient (in terms of XP/hour) way of farming it in FL is to lose as quickly as possible. For an unstudied player, it's much easier to help the other team than to help your own. So rather than your "win at any cost" mentality, we have the "lose as fast as possible" mentality. If you're only there to get XP rapidly, that is a perfectly logical position.

    How would people achieve this goal? They'd form a premade! Four like-minded souls, rushing together to the nearest opposing DRK+ stack, gleefully diving in to the blender like the devout anticipating the rapture. (Maybe they'd all play DRK in the hope team members would follow them to their doom!) As their health bars drop to zero they all sing "Praise Olivia! Please take these points with our blessing! Brb after respawn."

    And maybe this is already happening.
