When the new respawn system went in, all attributes save strength were penalized, so that people wishing to remain logged in while the penalties wore off could still reasonably do any sort of non-combat RP, without needing to worry about suddenly becoming super encumbered.
At some point, the strength exemption was removed.
I'd suggest putting it back in, since the initial idea was sound, and moreover, we now likely have a lot of players who, even when adventures don't go so great, likely earned huge piles of adventure XP anyway, and would be more than willing to stay logged in to earn some of it, if only they weren't sitting at a -10 point strength penalty.
