It's usually punishment enough in it's self. If enough people don't sign up to event then they do something else instead, often something resulting in a good sell/split.
Because everyone will do Y event to get more gil to buy item from X event...except when everyone thinks like that, said item from X event will never exist and therefor you wind up with gilgilgilgilgilgilgilgilgilgilgilgil and still no item from X event
You said ls leaders tend to punish you, but it's not them. If we don't have enough signups for ADL then we're not going to go and do it and waste our time are we? No, we're going to go do something else instead that will benefit the members who turned up. If you skipped event because you dont want to do ADL and we do something instead that you do want, then that's you're own damn fault, it's not the leaders punishing you.
But that's besides the point. Any non-EX dynamis drops, currancy/forgottens/equips, aren't bought with any kind of points system. If you want them, you buy them with gil at LS discounted rate. The total gil earned is then split between the attendees. This is true for all non-RE and I don't see why ADL items would be any different. We essentially got rid of points systems a while ago. Instead of turn up, gain points for attendance, spend points on non-EX items, repeat... it's turn up, earn gil from sell/split, use gil to buy stuff at discounted price. Just replaces Points with Gil, which works better, because if you don't want anything from events you can use that gil to buy whatever else, which you can't do with points.
We used to do that, but then when an event didnt offer much in terms of gil reward, people would do something that would garner greater gil rewards. Why camp khim when you can do ANYTHING else for greater profit.
What events are there like that nowadays anyway? There aren't really.
Then why are you bringing it up to begin with?
easy way to make ADL pop set easier to get (more farmed):
add 100s to all NMs that drop ADL pop items. lot of "friend group" can farm ADL but dont because it gives no reward and lack man power to kill him
(HS about jorn/ato ragewar)
Spoiler: show
I highly doubt the nms that drop ADL pops drop 100's.
I believed every NM had a chance to drop 100s, be it a force pop NM, lottery, timed, boss, or boss add(personally seen a L.Shell drop off one of these in Windy).
