commendations are really depressing

[Drako]

Did a P-torium run last night, and got 6 commendations, I was like waaaaat. I'm starting to wonder if the tanks tend to get the most, simply because they are leading the run all the time, so people are always noticing you. So at the end they are like ya sure why not.

What's also depressing is when someone begs to vote for him/her... at the very start.

Thus guaranteeing no vote from me !!

It's just like a one night stand. Don't matter how good it was, you just want to be out of there once you're done

What are commendations used for? do they group people with high commendations with other highly praised people?

[Ryios]

Some people could just not be pressed to care about commendations as they don't care about the rewards. Personally I see them as an inconvenience. When I enter a dungeon I want it to be over as fast as possible. People abuse the commendation system. They waste 5 minutes at the start discussing who is going to commentate who. Commendations are for people who deserve commendations, not trophies for everyone.

They should just default the system so that if no one commendates anyone it gives 1 to everyone.

I've kinda noticed a trend really. I need to test it though. On my warrior I rarely get any from other players, but PLD's in my FC seem to talk of getting tons without doing anything besides the job they play.
Kinda makes me sad as I enjoy my WAR far more then running about as a PLD >-<

No not really. If no one commendates anyone and just leaves, one could assume it was a smooth run and everyone deserves one.

War is a lot better now, but paladin still mitigates more dmg and still has more utility.

They need to just make the screen auto pop up after the last boss is killed. Some people in end game runs especially always leave without looking at loot or anything because they already have better gear. If the commendation window just popped up, they would be more likely to vote before sprinting for the door.
