Introduction of a negative commendation button

[Ilyrian]

Definitely one of the worst ideas in a while.

Negative commendations usually can and will be abused - simply because not everyone is at the same skill level in terms of gameplay. People can be oblivious and blind to understanding certain stuff, which can result in a negative commendation even if the player did nothing wrong. That is a very negative mindset to have, which has a lot of negative implications to players learning their job or learning the content for the first time. At most, I can see multiple commendations being a possible potential, but not negative commendations.

i dont like anything that fosters negativity

I'd be for it if it didn't take away from your positive commendations but had it's separate section. I'd be morbidly curious how many I would have even though I'd say I'm at worse at least competent in any role.

Lol pretty sure this would drive a lot of new players away if they did their first dungeon on their first job and got three negative comms because they weren't doing enough damage to the liking of the other three members. You underestimate the value that many people put on being viewed positively in the eyes of others.

This is for mentors only.

You'd still have a bunch of people abusing it just for the hell of it tho, that's the problem. It could decentivize actually good mentors for constantly getting negative reviews for no reason other than "lmao troll". Plus, Mentors already have virtually no power as it is, they don't mean anything in-game. And within Novice Network, there's an implicit etiquette which punishes you if you break it.

This metric really wouldn't add anything to the game. It'd only serve to expose permanent negativity around certain players. Worse still, some people can always change and do better. But their reputation will forever be down just bc of past bad reviews. There'd be no context to anything.

There are already players who attempted mass reporting for giggles and you’d like to suggest for something that may further encourage similar sentiment?

Yeeaahhh… totally ain’t gonna be abused… #GCBTW. Nothing can go wrong..!! /s

The commendation system is too subjective and easily abused. I don't know what other option they have, but tying mentor status to commendations is just silly. There are very skilled players out there that play DPS and have a fraction of the comms of tanks/healers simply because their icon is red instead of blue/green.

Another mentor hate thread, nothing to see here.
