A possible way to improve player commendations.

Let me first start out saying I might not respond to this immediately as it is 3am. But please leave any feedback you'd like.

But I have been pondering about the commendations and how they are seemingly pointless which I feel they shouldn't be. I understand they are being used for mentor status which is good but I feel it could be expanded. One of the main issues players feel is that when they DF content they get stuck with players who don't play right, whether it's a conflict of play styles or unfamiliarity with the job. I myself have had this issue but I tough it out if possible. Now when I get a good group and we preform well and everything goes smoothly I tend to dish out a commendation, sadly only one. But this is where my idea comes into light.

When you leave a commendation you get the ability to be rematched with that said player. This would help create a much better and more stable DF. As you would have a chance of the players you commended be your running group. This is more or less based off how the old Gamerzones Xbox used as well as the reputation, a player in the Recreation Zone who favored a player would be more likely to end up with players of that criteria and players ignored were not found as often. I feel by taking this approach it would balance out the negative feel of DF by the players actually building something with each other rather viewing everyone as a one and done type of situation.
