How do you decide commendations?

[Saseal]

Well, if I am in an 8-man and I feel that I didn't live up to what I could (Bad day or got distracted) I usually give it to my fellow healer as an apology.

I do that for 8 man parties (usually giving the comm to the other healer....)also! Mainly for the same reason - though it's because I KNOW that I've more than likely derped somewhere and they probably had to pick my sorry ass off the floor - or just some things went awry over the course of the fight :| (...like trying to cast regen on myself to try to regain some HP while running/kiting, in case of another bad hit... only to have forgotten to untarget the last person I healed and causing me to completely spin to their direction and run right back into everything/the AoE I was running from -_-).

........Unless the other healer was an ass about it... >.>
