Why are low standards for dps acceptable?

*snerk*
Considering as a summoner half my groups have me switching to my tank pet to save us from wipes or me switching to spamming Physick...
I do what I'm expected of my class in DF but at the same time I realize this is a Pick Up Group. Not a Raid Guild Hardcore group that has everyone's cell phones. So I don't rage on the healer not using Eos or the tank not flashing.
I get the dungeon done, roll for my class' loot n' leave.

Neither side is wrong ~snipitty~

I'm bored waiting for my next que dunno everyone else's excuse is. I'd hope the same.

I hope they aren't like the OP and arguing while fighting and getting their group killed.

Honestly, I blame the commendation system. Most seem to do pity commendations or just randomly click. If you hate the person tanking, healing or dpsing don't up their reputation at the end. Eventually they wont get in groups with you.

What? What do commendations have to do with whether or not a rando ends up with me more than once in DF?

Nothing. The commendation system is just an other e-peen factor with no other consequences than having glamour rewards.

Would be pretty fun to have a PF "do not join if you have less than 2500 commendations".

I was under the impression Commendation affected people much like an Elo rating system.

Nope. And the people who don't take well to suggestions certainly aren't going to change their ways because of the lack of commendations they get. Hell, it's bad enough a lot of bad players are getting commended by other bad players for being bad, reinforcing the problem.

Even if they did, it would be still too much weak.

Let's put a player review sub-page on the lodestone character profile. That thing would be seriously hilarious to read as the enraged players would be more likely to post feedback.

I can almost see it: "This healer is piece of goobbue poop, he almost let me die three times while I was busy standing in the aoes. When I asked them to stop dpsing, they were so toxic and said that they might consider it if I could increase my dps by their own dps output. Be warned, I don't recommend teaming up with them!" :'D

That's pretty sad actually, I feel your pain though. Half the time my dots rip hate off of tanks too.

Actually, most people don't commend. They get done and get the heck out of the dungeon.
