Update the way participation is measured in Pest Control to either include 0s, or drastically reduce the defence of portals while increasing their health pools proportionately.
As it stands, my ironman (67 attack, 70 str, 63 def) is punished for a "lack of zeal" attacking portals and hitting 0s, while the usual group of AFKers are killing Brawlers, Torchers, Shifters, and Defilers and maintaining full participation. As I type this, I'm tabbed out while fighting a brawler to regain participation credit after too many 0s/too long of a walk between portals caused me to dip too low.
