So what is your solution? Name a plan for any problems. Saying a problem really doesn't help. Give a solution for the problem as well. :roll:

You want more maps: Create them. :roll:

Thunder's splash damage works within 10 metres of where the thunder shot was fired. It cannot splash through or around walls. Between the range of 0 metres and 5 metres, the splash damage is maximum (e.g. the amount of damage the thunder shot would do without splash). After 5 metres, the splash damage incrementally decreases (e.g. the damage of an m3 thunder's splash at 9.5 metres exactly is probably going to only be around 5 hp). Remember also the fact that the damage from a thunder shot variates between the numbers shown in the garage randomly. Each thunder shot does not do the same amount of damage. M0 Thunder randomly shoots at between 21-35 hp per shot, for example. Source: http://forum.tankionline.com/posts/list/1149.page It is a random figure between the range of the damages that are shown in the garage/FAQ.

The thread maker created the topic 10 months ago and I think has already made his decision.

Because generally people drugging on the opposing team to me with the same weapon/tank as me are generally counter-drugging against me, I just carry on as I normally would - continuing to drug like I normally do.

Create some. You may find other people like it as well and are waiting for somebody to create a Siege battle.

Just goes to show what an awesome clan you are. :xd: Sorry about the mistake.

I agree with this. I think the announcement should come up every time you log in for a while, like the Gold box 200/300/400/500 announcement did.

All you do is say the problem. What is your solution? For an example of a potential solution, look over here: http://forum.tankionline.com/posts/list/136853.page. Eessydo mentions a problem and gives a potential solution for it. Explain what your solution for this problem is. Personally, I can see no real way of getting a fair system. This is because, if the battlefund is shared out equally among the winning team, the ones who have recently joined the game will get the same amount of crystals as those who have worked hard and long. This is not fair. If, then, you argue that the fund should be shared out incrementally in terms of the time spent by one of the players in the game, then those who are inactive/play without skill will get the same fund as those who get the kills, capture the flags, etc. What is your solution to this "problem" you mention?

Brilliant from Les, yet again. :thumbup:

Like I said, 5 points for a KS at maximum is really nothing. Passive defending, IMO, is not lazy. "Battling" as in running straight up the map and shooting about at people, is. That is my opinion. I think that there is nothing more lazy than just moving through the middle of the map. That may not be your opinion. I think simply shooting at people is lazy. You may think hiding in a corner shooting at people from distance is lazy. Why bother with trying to deteriorate the other person's argument for the simple reason of it being a poor argument? It does not influence me as an individual at all. I am a Thunder user, and I get my kill stolen more times than I kill steal.

Your whole concept of scoring comes from the assumption that KSing is not a true gauge of skill - correct, or did I get the completely wrong impression? Well, if it is, I personally disagree with your potential suggestoins. Kill Stealing is a part of Tanki Gameplay that should not be removed. You say that your system is "one that accounts for skill and encourages players to play with like ranks". Well, hey, but removing KSing is removing a lot of skill from tanki. Rewarding people for simply inflicting damage is a very lazy system, I have to wager. Just look at Isida. Yes, there are some very good isida players out there, but generally a poor isida can still get high up in the charts because of how it gets experience points for simply healing. Imagine if isidas' only got experience for healing someone up to maximum. That would put a lot more skill into isida, in my opinion? But anyway, that's an aside issue. No need to dwell on it. My point is that giving people experience points for inflicting damage does not reward skill at all, but rewards laziness. It also enables people to not "finish off" kills and be satisfied with simply inflicting damage, which is another aspect of laziness. Far from supporting skill, I feel you reduce the impact of it with your potential plan. And before you add this fact, 2-5 points for a KS is not enough. Having used short [Firebird], mid[Thunder] and long [Railgun] range weapons extensively, I have KS'd with all of them - and failed to KS despite trying with all of them as well. I think KSing and avoiding being KSed is the most skilled part of Tanki. Reducing the impact of KSing is useless if you want to increase skill. About your other, non-related to KSing, points: 4. Do you think that returning the flag should be dependant on the distance from the flag podium that the flag is, as it is now? 5. Do you think ranks are the only issue, or does the amount of players make a difference as well?

I'd already posted the answer. :lol: And finding out what 25% of 18,000 is is nothing special. ;) 5000/4 = 1250. 5000 - 1250 = 3750. :roll: Thus, 75% of 5k is 3750.

o-o Soundblast. Wow. You returned! Anyway, we don't do that on this forum any more, it's been invaded by immature trolls. Join a clan if you want to organise games like that. Also, most English people play on Server Two now.

Your trousers fell down because for a sudden moment of three seconds, the force of gravity on this earth was reversed. This ended up in your trousers flying up your body and you starting to float away from the burger joint that you were at with your girlfriend/boyfriend. You vigorously tried to pull your trousers down so that they would not be so high up your body. All of a sudden, the force of gravity reversed back to normal and you fell to earth, at the same time continuing to pull down your trousers. You hit the ground with a bump and your trousers fell down as well. Fortunately, everyone at the burger joint was too busy with worrying about what just had happened to the earth's gravity that they could not be bothered laugh at you, however. Everyone, that is, except your boyfriend/girlfriend who whipped their phone out, took photos and put them on Facebook. I shot a hamster in the head with a RPG whilst on a camping holiday in Cameroon.

Giving mods or anyone else privileges for the sake of privileges is a bad business policy.

I like Railgun M3 because it requires skill to use. Absolute nubs using Railgun M3 get no kills at all.

In Loops, the red team is waaaaaaay OP'd... but I guess it doesn't matter, it's not going to be an official map anyway.

-_- I used M3 Hunter until WO4. It did me no harm. And I was able to save up for M3 Railgun in the process.

That's your job, you see... I don't need to deal with PM's, so I don't. :P Only those with sensible titles.

Yussssssss :D
