  1. Just a bunch of chat and flood. Nothing was addressed at you so don't worry about it. If you are really curious about what was said I guess you could manually translate it with GT, but I'm telling you there is nothing worth reading there.

    ^ both need to be submitted by the actual player. Also I think "most deaths in 1 hour" is too specific. Let's just keep only 1 deaths record.

    Are mods getting OP items?

    That's a whole different story, starting with the fact that chat moderators are responsible people, who would know the risk involved in trusting an account with rule enforcement capabilities to an unqualified person. Chat mods do not share accounts. If that's what you would try to do when becoming a chat mod, that explains why you aren't one :D

    Are mods getting OP items?

    Well no, account exchange is still prohibited and if a chat mod starts giving their accounts away, they will be very quickly found out and removed from the moderation team as well as have all of their accounts blocked forever. Giving an account to someone else is one of the most serious violations especially if that account has any kind of special mod powers on it. Also, Alligator is not an OP paint - it has zero protection. And if you are talking about Helper - one moderator can get that paint on only one of their accounts per month (for a month). And I'm pretty sure that chat mods can't have as many mod accounts as they want. I don't know their rules, but it's probably 2 or 3 maximum. Sure, it's not really fair for him to have the kit, but if he decides to start playing, he will advance through ranks so fast that the advantage is really not going to last too long. Developers decided that it's not worth wasting their time removing all the purchased glitch kits and giving out refunds.

    What?

    I remember someone posted about this issue before. Simple glitch: The actual post's time is in UTC, while the time of my post in your quote gets adjusted to your time zone.

    Are mods getting OP items?

    Declined Well, first of all the rank requirement is still enforced and no exceptions are being made. The account you found is an alternate account of a chat moderator, whose main acc is a Generalissimo. They are allowed to have multiple accounts with chat mod powers on them for reasons I'm not aware of, but that's not the point. Second, notice how this user earned zero experience ever since the ratings and profiles were added? Yeah, you're not gonna run into such a player in a battle because chat mods don't use their alt accounts to play - they use them only for chat. And most importantly, the only reason why this account has Hornet Rail M1 on it is because of a kit glitch that happened 2 years ago, when certain kits were available much earlier than intended. The bug was fixed quite soon, but this person bought the kit and developers decided not to bother fixing this issue. After all, those who bought this kit on a low rank and then used the account to actually play, have long passed the low ranks and their kit is no longer OP. So yeah, other than the mildly powerful Helper paint given only to best helpers, staff members do not receive any other bonuses that would otherwise give them an unfair advantage in battles.
  8. That's also an option.
  9. Tallest is definitely Dictator. Shortest is either Viking or Wasp. Not sure about the order in the middle.

    Wait, so you changed your name?
  11. What if you start the timer and your enemies decide to quit? Or you start lagging and end up having to quit? I'd hate to lose a mission over something stupid like that.

    Please post from that account. Other record updated
  13. Under review [dmis] This is actually an interesting idea. Except for the bit with failing. I think the mission should just stay there until you complete it. So instead of a specific start/stop timer, there would always be a timer that keeps track of how quickly you are killing tanks and if at any point you manage to kill X amount of tanks in X minutes, the mission gets completed.
  14. Well actually, I can tell you it lasted exactly 5 minutes. This is not really a bug or hack. It's just a not very well made feature. You see, the system has been made in such a way that if your browser unexpectedly closes, or something else glitches out forcing you to reload the game, you will have 5 minutes to load the game again and get back into the battle without losing your score. This is a fail-safe to prevent players losing their spot in battle and potentially wasting many hours of gameplay (if it's a custom long PRO battle) for nothing. If something happens, such as your internet losing connection or your computer having to reboot, you can load the same server again and instead of being sent to the battles list, you will be loaded directly into the same battle with your score still there. Unless of course the battle ended while you were re-entering, but even then you still get crystals if less than 5 minutes passed. The problem with this is that this fail-safe also works if the player intentionally closes the browser's window, which is what many players do either when they are angry and "ragequitting" or simply because that's how they finish their gaming session. The problem with this is that even though the player has already quit, they are still technically inside the battle because for 5 minutes their place is reserved for them in case they accidentally quit and want to reconnect. And when that happens, their name isn't visible in the Tab list in-game, but they are still visible outside in the lobby, so players can't take their spot. 5 minutes is usually not a lot of time, but it terms of gameplay that's 1/3 of a standard length battle, so I understand why this seems like such a big issue. This will hopefully be solved when developers add the ability to leave the battle without losing your score, because then this feature will no longer be necessary. But for now we just have to live with it. And as a courtesy to others, to avoid taking up a slot for 5 minutes when you leave - first exit the battle and then close your window :)
  15. Same vice versa. You keep repeating the exact same points and pay no attention to our explanations regarding what is wrong with your arguments. Your only reason to bring back downvotes is that they are on all other forums (which isn't actually true). That means nothing. We had downvotes before, they caused a ton of problems, they were removed. Simple as that. We don't remove topics that somewhat make sense. If a user posts a topic that he clearly put some effort into and was serious about (i.e. not posting just to troll), but violates a minor forum rule, such as discussing a specific player, duplicate topic or asking a question, then we would never hide it. The only topics that get hidden (i.e. removed) are ones with major rule violations, such as excessive profanity, explicit material, heavy spam/flood, scam, racism, slander, etc. The contents of these topics are unsuitable for the forum and must not be available for users to view, which is why they need to be hidden instead of locked. Besides, having a bunch of locked topics ruins the look of any forum section, making it unorganised and difficult to browse. If you have any specific topics for which the above logic was not true, I would like you to point them out.

    Could you not calculate it yourself? No, you did not break the record.

    Mystery behind map Gallery...

    For most players this map caused massive FPS drops and crashes, so it was removed because it was mostly unplayable.
  18. It's a weird Russian dialect that I'm not really used to, but it looks like he's saying something like: "Greetings my fellow player, I was browsing for battles today and came across this particular one, which caught my attention mostly due to your presence in it. I would like to challenge you in this game to test our skills against each other and rule out a victor, as I see ourselves to be quite fair opponents. You appear to be of a different culture and language, but I'm sure we will find a way to converse the essentials. Thank you for understanding" Or maybe, just maybe, it's just a load of garbage that the guy spammed in chat for no reason :3

    You need to get at least 500 kills to qualify.
  20. I've never known about this issue, although it's possible that the word "test" is not allowed in an account name to prevent people using it and pretending to be admins/testers. Moved from Game Discussion

    XT equipment

    In addition to the answer above, No, the MUs from your normal M3 item do not get transferred over to the XT item. You have to do the MUs for XT items and normal items separately. In the future if you want to ask a question about the game, please refrain from creating new topics and use the official http://help.tankionline.com Q&A site. Closed.
  22. Just use the date limitation to find posts from a particular time period. So for me, if I wanted to look at my first few hundred posts I made between joining the forum in August 2014 to end of November 2014, I would set the following filter: http://tnkscr.net/IEIk5H.png
