Warding grants gold, suggestion for supports?

Hey guys, I'm WR, a currently S3 Support main. I've noticed that supports usually fall behind in lane due to being in a duo lane, warding/clearing, leaving kills to carries etc. I wanted to suggest maybe adding a small reward to warding from using the sightstone item? Maybe like giving the player 5 gold for putting down a ward? It wouldn't help to close the exp gap, but it may help towards another item and help keep supports a little bit more relevant.

Ok edit: 1. the gold gain should be small per ward 5 maybe 2. The gold reward would have a cd maybe 30 sec 3. The gold reward wont proc if you are inside base 4. The gold reward will not proc if you already have 3 wards placed 5. It only procs on SIGHTSTONE not trinkets or SUPPORT upgrade item

(Just moved this from GD sorry guys)

What keeps me from sitting in fountain and spamming sightstone 24/7 gaining thousands of gold?

Or just out side of it then going back in for refresh?

it's not gold you should get while warding, but experience. Every time I go to ward, I'm usually leaving lane where experience is being earned and then falling behind. It's the reason why supports generally are the most underlevelled position in the game.
