The title says it all really.

A commander flag would be very useful when organising multiple group activities (whether in a PvE or WvW environment) but being something of an altoholic, I quite often find myself running around on different characters. I would find it extremely useful if, having bought the compendium, I could use the flag on whichever of my characters was most appropriate for the situation.

If it was any cheaper imagine any more useless commanders we’d have running around on top of those we already do.

Honestly i think there are enough people with commander tags running around. Making it account bound or cheaper will only make it accessible to way more people, making it more annoying then helpful.

I’d rather have them implement a feature that allows you to turn of people’s commander tag without having to join one. Like some sort of blacklist, but for commanders.

It would have been better to make this a guild item paid for with influence. An instant payment followed with a maintenance to keep it active. A larger guild should be able to keep several active. If the person leaves the guild the commander title would be retained by the guild and could be issued to someone else. The guild would have to think if they wanted to keep it active and would provide an ongoing drain on resources rather than a single done and it’s over hit.

Splitting the commander into WvW and PvE variants might be an idea but would bring other issues. I think it is still worth considering.

Individuals buying these is equivalent to rich people buying their commission. What you end up with is a lot of people with more money than sense running around with one. European armies dropped it a long time ago because incompetent but rich people bought their way to the top and it should go in GW2 as well.

make it cost less but require a specific WvW level to be able to use it.

While I think you have a point when it comes to WvW, I do not want someone who never leaves the battlegrounds except on special occasions to be leading tactics in a PvE environment.

I don’t want to remember the name of every character from every good commander from my server to know who to follow in WvW. So, no unless the make it display the account name instead of character name.

And 2nd: not until they either disable the commander icon in PvE or give us an option to hide commander icons in PvE.

Make 5 times more expensive and then make it account bound!

^ Why is this a problem, really?
