    It's impossible to vote when in a premade group in order to avoid abusing the system where friends would go together in order to secure themselves votes everytime.

    I find the feature very good as it is.

    After reflexion, I suppose it would be even better if it was simply impossible to vote for people you entered with, so that you can only vote for someone you don't know, even when you entered with a partial premade.

    It seems to me they have this system in place to encourage more people to use the duty find option. Albeit I too run with another person most of the time, and don't see why this would be a problem as long as there is no option to vote for the person you are in party with, or make it so the leader of that party only can give the accommodation to someone else out side of the party that why some dude that happened to not be in the party doesn't just get 3 commendations because he wasn't in the premade party.

    This. And if they were to limit the voting to only the pug'd party member, that means a single member picked up in the queue would by default be the only person able to receive a commendation, which also skews the system.

    There's nothing wrong with the current system really

    Except the pug can give commendations to people in pre-made groups. At the very least there should be an equal trade.

    Commendations aren't forced, one can just leave without giving any. I don't think restricting the power to give commendation to the leader would work. The pug would then feel forced to impress that person alone. Considering the pug can commend anyone in the pre-made party, it's only fair that they should all be able to commend him.
