    Commend more than 1

    Please consider changing the commendation system. Since the party defeated the challenge together, most of the time I'd like to commend everyone. I don't want to exclude people from commendations and make them wonder if they did something wrong, when actually they just got unlucky and no one voted for them.

    So, let everyone commend everyone they thought was a good party member, instead of just the best.

    This would change commendations from a competitive system to a cooperative one. When everyone works together to succeed, everyone can be rewarded. That's a much better message than encouraging people to try to be the center of attention and get all the commendations. It would also send a stronger message that if you aren't receiving commendations, then your party probably wasn't happy with you.

    If you get truly trustworthy people, just talk to them beforehand (before final boss or whatever) and make a deal so that everyone votes on the person under them or whatever. That way everyone receives one vote

    Honestly, you can tell if someone is fishing for commendations, and I think most people will see that. The commendation system would be rendered pretty useless if we could just commend everyone. Then it's just a do this dungeon X amount of times without being a jerk (the jerks usually leave mid way and won't be getting a commendation regardless). This way, it will promote some people going out of their way to help and explain fights instead of just remaining silent for the entire run. We'll see how it plays out though I guess.

    Then whats the point...we already get philosophy tomes for X amount of dungeons, oh and also mythology's. Why do you want a third, what would that accomplish?

    It would become a question of 'who DONT i commend?'. Breaking the whole system as hard as possible in one fell swoop.

    It's supposed to be for that one person that stood out.

    If everyone did well just have a system beforehand where everyone swaps commendations.

    I dunno, personally I just say "Great Job Everyone!" at the end, pick a random dps (as i'm usually heal/tank) and step on out. I think the communication is x10 the reward or a little token telling me I do good.

    For the love of jeebus don't allow multiple votes. Then you'll hear 'let's all vote for each other!'. It would make the vanity items obtained even more trivial.

    I ran a dungeon with a terrible tank, and wanted to commend both the dps - who really made it work, but simply had to pick one \

    It could be nice if you got an extra commendations to give over the course of running some number of dungeons?
