    As someone who mains a tank, I get equal commendations on dps and healer classes as well.
    Yes, I will admit that if it's one of those static nobody says anything, in-and-out kinda parties, I usually see myself gaining those 'defaulted' commendations.
    However, a {Hello!} can go a long way. As long as I don't royally mess up a mechanic somewhere, I tend to garner commendations regardless of my class.

    However, in regards to the idea that tanks and healers get them more often, I don't think that's such a bad thing, nor something that needs to be fixed. You see, we lack many tanks and healers in the queues more often than not. We're not often short of dps classes (though I've been there!). Just being thankful that the tank exists in order to allow the roulette to happen is often enough.

    I appreciate the feed back. I play as a whm most of the time and average about 2 commends on 4 man content, about the same on 8 person. My vote is almost always going to a tank, even when dps have done an excellent job. I just feel obligated to commend the guy I've had targeted 90% of the time. As was mentioned, a lot of the time people just leave as soon as the dungeon is done, and commendations are an afterthought. If an immediate reward was handed out based on the number of commendations I think it would also cause some people to conduct themselves in a more positive manner. This second part is critical, as anything that helps build a better community will ultimately benefit this game.
