I wanted to elaborate as to why I think this is a good idea. In the past (and present? I don't know) there were players like Thewun, Heeth, Chekacoch, Suurge, and others i'm sure i'm forgetting. These people put in tons of hours to get FL moving forward. In many cases they carried the team and we wouldn't have been able to do a lot of encounters without them. Now every once in a great while (maybe once, if ever, in some cases) they may want to roll on something. Almost nothing we did was of any value to these people. In my opinion they deserve a greater chance at getting these rare loots which they can use.
In contrast to that you get players like Merfy who show up for the single encounter which interests them and they drop the raid immediately afterwards. Someone who puts in 20 minutes of their time a week (not to mention did nothing to help FL get into DP) shouldn't get an even shot at loot when someone else puts in many hours. Players like Merfy shouldn't be allowed in the first place but a system like this puts them at a deserved disadvantage.
