Please stop begging for commendations.

[Isome23]

If the tank deserves it I will give to him, however if the DPS is better they will get the commendation. I play BLM and SCH mostly and have a lower lvl CNJ and ARC i use for guildheist and lower lvl dungeons. Was shocked when I got one for BLM in CT. SCH or CNJ I am more likely to get commendations for although I don't play them for that reason. The only real complaint I have about the commendations is if I go in a dungeon in DF with a friend I can't give the other 2 people outside of my pre-made party. Implement something where we obviously can't vote for our friend or fc member but let us vote for the other 2 members. I had a really good tank who was running Qarn for the first time and he genuinely deserved a commendation and I couldn't give it to him

Same here. Of all dungeon runs I have done since 2.1, I have not seen a single person beg for one.

I honestly haven't seen anyone beg for them. Out of the maybe 50-75 runs of various things i've done since 2.1 launched, only 2 people even mentioned them.

This, it hasn't happened to me either.

But in case it does; Beg for a commendation means you get none.

My simple rules for a commendation:
Tanks/Healers: Impress me! If you have not impressed me, as a DPS my vote defaults to the other DPS, if that DPS happens to be begging for one or manages to be an incredible moron then I press the cancel button and exit.

If you are continuously begging for one during a run then I will personally ask for a vote-kick, or leave.

Thanks to mags for pointing the dollowing out:

or even threaten people for them,

Wow, really? With what? I'd love to see some of the things people come up with.

I've never seen anyone beg for one. Not to say it doesn't happen but I don't think it is an issue to warrant this topic any special attention.

...or even threaten people for them...

Really? What are they gonna threaten me with? Are they gonna come over to my home to kick my arse?

I'm slowly closing in on the 100 commendation achievement. (Healer only here)

I've gotten them from low level duty, high level duty, main story duty and guildhest duty roulettes.
In some guildhests I've had to point out that unless people want to use the abandon duty option, they have to select someone for commendation in order for the guildhest to end faster. Haven't ever begged for, or seen anyone beg for commendations.

So far I've gotten everything from 0 to 4 commendations from a single duty.
I give my commendations to tanks, off-heal and dps depending on who I think did the best job. There is usually only one person that stands out from the rest from my point of view, so it's usually easy to select who gets the commendation. Make mistakes too often or don't play your class properly and chances of you getting a commendation from me goes down.

I have never had a single person beg for a commendation.

General Discussion once again complains about a problem that doesn't exist.

Just running the MS/LL/HL Roulette each day (No GH), once each, I've gotten around 60. I never ask for them, ever. I don't even mention them. I'll just thank everyone for the run, run over the the exit and wait until everyone else is running to it as well. So I at least know they had time to vote. As far as who I reward them to, normally, it's who ever stood out. For instance, if a Dragoon or Monk used the flank and back for their attacks, or if I see a bard using mana/tp song when needed, etc. Otherwise, if no one really stood out, I normally just give it to the healer if they were decent.

So because it has never happened to you, it automatically doesn't exist? You know what, then world hunger must be a myth because I'm never hungry. And that whole AIDS thing? Total myth because I don't have it and haven't met anyone with it, so it must not exist.

You not experiencing it does not mean people have not experienced it. Personally, I've seen it happening more frequently with people asking/begging for commendations at the beginning of the run.

[RygaenYuui]

I don't care how much a person begs for a commendation. You can beg for it all you want but unless you've earned it, I guess you'll just keep waiting for it.

I mean seriously, who would commend a bad player who didn't know how to play his or her job correctly?

[Tabmow]

never run into someone begging for commendations....

[KittytheSheGeek]

I've never seen anyone beg for them, but I can certainly see it happening. Really, it's just pathetic. If you want Commendations, do your job well.
