    There can be only one MVP, while having multiple would actually be meaningless. Please don't bring the cup cake syndrome to gaming. Everyone does not need a trophy for participating.

    Sometimes though you get two damage dealers who's DPS is on fire same with the healer too and I want to commend all because it's so damn rare to see, things like this should be encouraged. It's sad when I'm put in a situation like this

    Yes it's rare, same situation as in RL. As an example; you can't have two valedictorians one must stand out more. While it is rare to see DPS who exceed our expectations at once, we can't award two. Just like in a competition we need to encourage not over reward. Gaming seems to be the only fair game out there were game over actually counts.

    And please don't bring your inane and bitter real world ideology to the game, lest you spoil everyone else's good time.

    First off it's an opinion, second every parent has a way to educate, lets put this in gaming terms. Feast for example should everyone get a first place trophy? or better yet a participation plaque? Oh here is a better one can we give everyone a relic weapon for achieving lvl 70? see were I'm going with this? It's not that I'm being negative I'm expressing a point here. Should we also place a safe zone on the forums? Lets make it age wise? It's part of life, I also pay for the service and while your ideas may clash with with mine I respect your and everyone's perspective. A simple thank you or great job is an alternative as well. When I think everyone is doing a great job I'm polite. Depending on my role plays a huge factor. Are they supportive? do they give tips? are they rude? Then again a cup cake will be a cup cake. Play as you like just think, there is a reason achievements are called achievements.

    Your point is founded on a pile of messy and half-baked ideas that speak to your feelings about what you think is happening without regard for what's actually happening as well as a critical inability to properly analogize. Your post is laden with buzzwords and hints at a worldview rife with hysterical nonsense you don't see for what it is. Like I said, feel free to check your inane and bitter ideology at the world. A few extra coms here and there isn't going to ruin little Timmy's future, the world, or even this game.

    Sigh, they say ignorance is a bliss and your entitled to your opinion. Notice logically I am accepting your perspective. That I believe in it is different. Your right an extra comm. won't hurt your future, the world, or this game. Once again it's an opinion. If you even follow logic and heard of of the rare trait called common sense, you would understand that certain things teach values. I am open to options and , as I had stated , agreed with options. Now if you happen to be part of the cup cake generation, I can understand why you get offended. By own means I'll say it properly....Get real, achievements are there for a reason. It's a nice challenge. Just out of curiosity could you allow view of your achievements on loadstone? Kind of curious of your achievements. No of course not why would you? I understand...from what I see you want things handed to you. To that that I will end this conversation with the following; Nice story Bro. /em plays the worlds smallest violin. In life hard work should be rewarded, and once again, obviously you have reading comprehension problems, I am open to the idea of others and I even liked the suggestions that made sense and quoted them. By the way being we are in the same server feel free to challenge me anytime to a duel. Men speak with their actions, if your up to the challenge that is. O wait no it wouldn't be fair right?

    I cannot possibly roll my eyes hard enough to do justice to this post.

    Why do you see it as MVP status? There is nothing wrong with wanting to appreciate more than one person that played equally well. I thought that's what the whole comm system was for?

    PVP is a completely different thing.. You are fighting different teams in PVP, not fighting all for the same goal.. A commendation is just recognition that somebody did well. It is not a 1st place trophy..
    There are many subjects I would agree on for your rationalization but comms isn't one of them..

    Ok instead of MVP , lets use the term Most Inspiring Player ? Most Competent Player? Most Outstanding Player? what ever term you want to use. NOte: I understand and respect people want to accommodate and be nice to others. Yes there are some people who deserve it, yet there is an achievement involved.
