Well, I suppose I'll do a proper announcement here. Galaxy/Shad(ow) has left the game and I am now taking over from his position as a Wiki administrator. That's about it! I'll do my best :) (as long as Hex and Marc don't destroy me within the next few days .-. )

Fixed.

He used to be called Shadow or SHAD0W, also his wiki username is Shadow :)

Product kits are absolutely not essential for effective gameplay. In fact, I'm pretty sure I haven't bought a single kit on this account (excluding supply kits, I guess), so I instantly beat your record :) It's just not impressive.

We don't accept rank-specific records.

Maybe it's different at your rank (for whatever reason), but whenever I open the lobby there's at least 15 different maps. As far as I know, they are all chosen randomly with equal chance for each map, and there's currently 43 maps that can come up. See list here: https://en.tankiwiki.com/Quick_battles

Depends on what you want to do. I'd say that it isn't even sensible to compare the two things, since they are completely different features that are made for different purposes. In-game clans allow you to have an organised group of friends that you can play with, while a forum clan actually gives you opportunity to participate in eSports.

Not really. Remind me please?

That's up to you. The devs are the ones with the actual data...

Well, I'm just gonna disagree with you there. We've had numerous nice little things that improved gameplay experience, such as custom controls, the garage key shortcut, MU price reduction, removal of the garage pop-up, in-game clan system, etc. Those are the things that pretty much everyone enjoyed, while there were tons of other updates that were liked by some players and disliked by others. For example personally, I love the fact that standard battles can no longer be created because it resulted in an amazing variety of maps and it made battles full up much faster and thus the games became more fun.

Dude. You cut the quote too short. I said "Devs CAN'T just cater to dedicated players". I assume that devs decided that the negative word-of-mouth won't be so significant and their current marketing plan will result in a good inflow of players. Pretty sure Hazel already explained it at least twice. That balance change happened over a year ago (I think), so it's kinda pointless to discuss such old updates.

Left it for later. I thought you knew that forum mods have nothing to do with bans. We don't even have the power to ban players, on forum or in the game. Even for forum violations the most we can do is report it to our admins, who then issue the bans. So when you come to me asking why you got banned by some Russian mod, I have nothing to say other than ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I always tell players to speak to an admin. If the admin or tech support don't reply, then I have no idea.As for "who keeps me in check", you know very well that CooperO and Miahak are my superiors, so any issues regarding me or any other forum mod are meant to be passed on to them. That's completely absurd. It's their game so they HAVE to care about player (a.k.a. customer) satisfaction, otherwise they'll end up with no revenue to support themselves and the project. When it comes to chat mods abusing power, the admins should always sort it out and remove any unfair bans.

Like I said, you already have 3 records. But if you want me to replace all three with just that one, then I could do that :)

Ok so here's a story Novel CTF, score is 5-3, 6 minutes left in the battle. A gold box drops. I decide to go for flag while everyone is distracted. I take flag, get out, but get flipped because of the dumb textures as I drive over the bumpy area. Two teammates (blackbird2345 and onur3879) are driving through the tunnel and up on the hill because they probably saw the gold location and want to jump on gold from above. They see me flip with the flag RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM. What do they do? They proceed to IGNORE me and go onto the hill to wait for gold to drop. I was laying there for a good 30 seconds before I finally got killed and the flag got returned. Needless to say, we lost. There's really no way to describe this kind of situation without using at least 20 banable words

Well, it's not up to me to arrange livestreams with developers :D

Don't have screenshot, but I remember seeing this once: *score 0-0, gold drops* *all enemy team go for gold, I steal flag and capture it* Maf: Thanks guys for going for gold instead of defending. EZ flag! Enemy dude: I'm a shaft, I don't care.

Fine, you got me there :D But you guys already have 3 records. And the criteria "best" is too vague for a record. It's very opinion-based, so while you may have the most achievements, whether or not you are "best" is a personal opinion of any individual.

What's there to dispute when there's no proof in the first place?

Good point, but I think not using any supplies since the introduction of profiles is pretty darn impressive. And we can see how much experience was earned since Ratings were added, so that's one way to verify it. The record could be "Most experience earned / hours played without the use of supplies"

I have no idea how you came to the conclusion that a new CM and mods would result in the game itself becoming better. The CM has zero influence on the updates that are released. He plays no part in the decision-making process. The mods have even less influence. We simply have a set of rules and guidelines and we use those guidelines to maintain order and help players.

Bonuses don't count. Only the base reward. Also we don't count rewards from battles during increased battle fund events.

That could actually be an interesting record :D

Nah fam, that would be @AbsoluteZero
