Adena Drop Lowered again...

Today I was leveling a sub-class for one of my many toons, and I noticed a sharp decline of Adena +items drops in Low level areas...Level 40-58 so far...

Alligator island used to drop 200-300 Adena per mob and today I saw only 15-20 Adena per drop....omg! Same thing at "Sea of Spore (level 52+ area) 20-30 Adena per drop(used to be 10 times more...just like 1 month ago).
I saw some people leveling but...most of them were leveling using no shots....
And here I was....telling the newbies Not to join a clan to beg for Adena and gears....

It seems like the more I spend at Nstore, the worse item + adena Drop it gets...


Genius think tank at NC has the following Logic???

1. Lower the Adena + Item drops
2. People will spend money at Nstore to get gears and Shots
3. Reward Nstore shoppers with good Chance to get them into the HABIT of playing the Nstore events(Get them HOOKED!)
4. Lower the Chance for Nstore Events
5. People will keep spending money until they win
6. Profits made...
7. Lower the Adena + Items Drops even further...just repeating step 1 - 6 over and over....

Is this True?

P.S. Alligator island(level 40-50) used to drop 2,000-3,000 Adena per Mob when it first came out....Long time ago...
