This is another excellent point. Infractions could create issues for those who have a legitimate reason to not have posted. But, I am still a firm believer there that should be some level of punishment for no-shows, especially for those who do so repeatedly. And I think the first suggestion is an fair, and balanced(s/o to Fox News) solution to this issue, and may help to negate it to some degree.
