I don't think it's a bad idea that if a person has 100% attendance that they can have a tier they can lot before the others, or if they do lot that tier that they spend their attendance percentage so that they are not doing it every single run, and they will need to rebuild their attendance again.
For example, I don't think it would be fair that one of our PLDs who goes to every single run, and does their job well on PLD and multiple other jobs, should be outlotted by someone who happens to have the PLD job leveled, and is floating around the 50%-60% attendance area, for lotting a valor surcoat. That extra 40%-50% of time and work that is being put in should be considered and put in perspective. It doesn't seem fair that X person with 100% has the same lotting priviledge as a person who has just made it past 50%. It almost seems that if this is acceptable, then why bother having level tiers like 75 > 70> 60>? Because to me it's no different. A person who always shows up 100% for our static, and is reliable, should have some perk of some kind I would think over someone who attends only half the time, regardless of why they can't show up, RL or because they want to go mack the fly honeys.
As well, if a person cannot attend 100% for any reason, I don't think having something like this is penalizing them, and really they shouldn't be feeling this way imo. It should be understood that you get what you put in. If someone didn't farm sky pops because they weren't able to play for whatever reason, should they be allowed to lot the Byakko's haidate when they drop because they went and found a curtana one day? It's a matter of getting back what you put in. And if you use up all your attendance to lot that one piece you've been after or years and years, there's no way to abuse it with something like this.
Eventually everyone will get what they want over time if we keep at it. The AF will drop. But there's some zones and some pieces that just do not drop as readily as others, and something like this would be good to have to keep things fair. It's along the same lines as why we changed how wootz ores are lotted now. To keep things fair and just.
I dunno .. I'm just a firm believer that you get rewarded for the time, effort, and work that you put in. When I go to work for 4 hours, I don't get paid for 8 hours. I wish I did though .. that would be tight!
