Is this some kind of joke? We have to wait 20 hrs to get 20 marks and 820 dil from it? At least bump up the amount of marks for Pete's sake.

    Something is weird here ...

    Haven't reached it ... but why the 20 hour wait. They actually reduced the other tiers to 5 secs to upgrade. It was 15 minutes for other reps. So if this is correct ... why make someone wait another day?

    That's why we have to wait 20 hours. A bump in marks would be nice, at least 50.

    Considering it's hilariously easy to get a good amount of marks and cyber parts to trade in for dilithium, I'm not bothered much by this.

    Maybe split it into 3?

    One only for marks (at least 50)
    One only for dil (500-1000 or so)
    One only for Cybernetic Implants (1-3 seems good)

    Let you choose what you wanna do with your future commendations.
    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.

    Worst part is that the project to change marks into commendations seems to be gone.:(

    Only after T5?
    Because after you reached T5, the commendation is worthless except for the 20 Marks, 820 dil project.
    No need to turn marks into a commendation, only to turn the commendation into something useful.

    Still working T5, the commendation for mark project is gone. Sad really. After T5, I would not miss it, but now... ...finishing the rep will indeed take a much longer time.

    You're right, before you hit T5, it is needed.

    Wasn't it implemented to make it easier for the players wanting to farm at weekends and keep the reputation for the rest of the week running?

    Why taking it away now?

    I think someone did the math and you actually would have gotten more dilithium out of converting them to commendations first. Since each turned in commendation also gives 20 marks you would get 820 dilithium instead of 500 for 50 marks. Of course at the cost of waiting half an eternity.

    It is therefore most logical to remove the whole bone, instead of cutting away the infected skin. Yes. :eek:

    what's the point of this thread? continue to thwart voth efforts exists purely to give you something to do with the commendations you would still get if you keep playing voth content after hitting T5, so what if it's 20 hours, it gives you dil, a few marks and a dyson requisition box which you can keep if it's something you've been hoping for but didn't want to buy with dil from the rep store, or sell to a vendor for EC and it costs you nothing! it's a small bonus freebie just for playing the game, be happy with it.
