There are a couple of issues with the new Dyson rep commendations.
First, there is no way to spend them other than reputation, and no way to get rid of them if you don't want to spend them on reputation. There needs to be a way to convert them into marks so that they can be spent on projects. Easiest thing to do here seems like it would be to just flip the existing upgrade project so that 350 marks<-> 5 commendations both directions. [I am aware that you can continue to turn them in for rep boxes after you cap T5 but that is a waste since most of the items will be chunked into EC.]
Furthermore, they should be removed from the currency bag and put into inventory as items. Long-term, you should probably consolidate these things with the voth cybernetic implants. You dont need 2 exp currencies for dyson rep. Just switch to a model where instead of dropping 1 commendation for the first daily you drop ~3 VCI for the first daily, and most stuff will keep working the same.
I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.
*shrug* Well, that is what's there. I mean, if you are still getting commendations, certainly it can't hurt that much to just finish out the rep is you are already tier 4. Then you can get the sponsorship tokens if you want as well.

You get them for the 1st mission of the day
I'd rather just get marks and/or implants, the same way Borg STFs work. I like to build up a stockpile of marks and mats and then go do something else. Commendations are not helping with this at all, and so I am asking them to change it with this in mind.
But you are also getting those, right? I mean, if I spend a hour in the Battlezone I'll have like 300 marks and a whole bunch of dil, plus a commendation I got from a daily somewhere along the line.
I agree with Mimey here - might just as well get to T5 then, and turn them in for dil there, as you would do with borg implants...

When you hit tier 5, a new mission (an upgrade mission I believe) will appear that requires 1 commendation and rewards you with 20 marks and 960 dil.
