    Actually, I have lot more fun playing healer then dps...and as a dps you also have to stand the pain of neverending queues. And as far as low level dungeon go, I feel dps is more effort then ehaling, since healing is simply spamming a key and throwing a dot every once in a while basically all the way up to Brayflox,, while dps has to look at adds and stuff. And in case of say monk, I always feel a bit like in Benny Hill Show.

    As for places like CT where yu really have a lot of choice, I generally commend the one who made me laugh the most (since without jokes and stuff that place kills you bit by bit inside) or say a tank who always volunteered to MT, since it seems 90% of the tanks in there hate tanking duh....and of course someone who gives tips etc.

    I noticed myself that I get mroe commendations if I screw up or throw insults at someone, rather then if I do all great, give tips etc <.< Unless I'm on whm and solo heal battles. People is weird....

    I was referring to a stereotype xd But really, I cant see how healer is easier than dps? Then again, I play a bard xD As brainless a class as I have seen in any game. No interrupting skills to dodge aoe. pretty simple gcd rotation with a priority system in place for the non-gcds, and all this made even simpler via macros..

    Eh as I said referring to low level dungeons, you only really have a skill to spam, while standing still and never running out of mana if anything. If nobody is taking damage, you just spam another skill. :P And while having insta skills makes dodging aoe easier (but is there even something to dodge at low level?), long casts mean less clicks and being able to chat etc during cast :P Obviously hugh level and end game is all another thing, but low level roulette is mostly sastasha and stuff so duh.

    Just as a note, it's not like I'm one who enerally goes around insulting :P But sometimes in CT with all those trolls and stuff...telling them to shut up just can't be helped from my part.

    I'm not the type to throw insults around, but I definitely notice I get more commendations when I screw up. I think it's because of how I own my mistakes, rather than making an excuse. A perfect example happened last night during the last boss of Stone Vigil. In phase two I ate one of the fly by breath attacks, then proceeded to run right into a puddle of death which killed me. I was there as SCH so they wiped shortly after my death. I explained what I did wrong and apologized. We killed him handily in round two, and I left with all three commendations!
