Sorry to say, but the dumb guy is you. In this particular case at least. I don't wanna get you and some others out of the bubble you live in, but Tanki is long since not a paradise. Do you seriously think Tanki staff reads our feedback? If I were Tanki Staff, I'd barely read any comment, since there are so many. Downvoting and Upvoting was their method to see bluntly how what they were doing was liked or not, and removing Downvotes for the reason Semyon mentioned is just impossible. They're oppressing us, and if you think otherwise - think again. If you STILL think that we aren't being oppressed - tell me what you're smoking now. I'll go buy it from my drug dealer.

Think about it this way: Even if one guy downvoted all your posts, you have enough friends and wise people that upvote your posts. But now, we won't be able to downvote the stupid things Tanki does (Tanker's Day scandal seems to be the worst thus far). Indeed, we still can write posts against what's being done. But believe me - within a year or two, or whatever time passes till the Staff gets enough courage to do so - they will also ban us for saying things against them. They will get the game even worse. Whenever it will be, you'll see I was right.

Leave the lags alone.. They are a huge problem, but I'm not even surprised when one more thing gets screwed up in-game. I am damn surprised that you, or whoever made the decision to implement the update, could sink to such a level. I don't know, maybe I'll get a ban for what I've said, but I don't regret it. If it isn't you who does the decisions, and you're only the unlucky guy that tells us about them - please pass it to the Marketing Staff. I understand Russia is now (for several reasons) in deep economical problems, I know that the Ruble is sinking deeper than a diver into the void with no value whatsoever, but I think that what you guys have done and the continuous ruining you're putting the game through didn't help you, and won't help you in the future either. You just managed to get the entire community (except for the Mods and Helpers who worry for their wages) against you. Bad as your state may be, what you've done wasn't a wise step, and you're gonna see the consequences sooner or later.

No downvotes anymore. :mellow: Seriously, I haven't found any reason to downvote in this topic ever, but I would bet on my entire arm (choose which one) that this update is a direct consequence of the over 480 downvotes Tanker's Day topic got. Right now I'm not leaving Tanki mainly because of friends being around, but this update is one more thing I'm gonna add to the list of reasons why to leave once I really get fed up. If anything, I'm staying in Tanki just out of interest - to see what's gonna be next, how worse Tanki can get.

We all now that it's all because of the 481 dislikes (perhaps even more) that were given to the Tanker's Day topic. Unsurprisingly, Tanki does another step to shut our mouths. Semyon, I don't know if you did this decision or you just published it, but whoever it is - your logic is garbage. You said (direct quote): ..When the feedback is just a DISLIKE button, there's no dialog. There's no way to understand what the criticism is about. Simple logic proves that the same can be said on LIKEs: there's no dialog! There's no way to understand what all the good feedback is about! You can lie to us and yourselves, but deep inside you know that Tanki is becoming a dollar (ruble?) hunting dictatorship which oppresses more and more the freedom of expression. A year from now, posting something against an update will get us banned. Shame on you. It's not even disgust that I feel now. It's just sorrow, that you could sink to such a low level. Sorry, I just didn't think you would. My mistake, and I'll know from now on not to believe something's gonna ever get better in Tanki. I must admit - when I entered the Forum and saw in the Developer's News section a new title which wasn't about the personal discounts (another lie, by the way - nor me neither any of my many friends have gotten any Equipment Tests, but that's a different subject), I thought that finally something new was gonna get in the game, something good for a change. Then, when I actually read the words, I thought that I might have been right. And then I read the topic and shook my head in disbelief. Seriously, even had I smoked weed and injected Heroine and sniffed Cocaine, my hallucinations would have been better than that.

I have already, and that's why I didn't write anything further; I had nothing to add. EDIT: Though I must say that downvoting my post didn't help things.

Writing stupid things and then adding a laughing smiley as if you were funny isn't hilarious; it's sad. Anyways, I wouldn't have intervened, but with all due respect, this topic is not for accusations and pointless arguments, and I've been here way before you were, and I know how things should go and go here. If you start ranting like a drunk, I see no reason not to intervene. Additionally - I don't know who you are and I don't think we've ever talked, but I'm quite sure that you are still singular, not a plural. So there's no need to say no one, as if you were everyone's spokesman. And no, I won't shut up. You clearly haven't understood what I've said before.

Well... I tried to explain to him why no matter whether he's right or wrong, he acted inappropriately.. But you're right.

First, I don't know whether you got on that mine purposely or not, but if you didn't - ranting with a big green Font and calling others noobs won't solve it. Jaymin has an alt account - in fact, a Gismo, which is better than your rank, so calling especially HIM a noob makes YOU sound like a noob. Second - even if he were a WO1 who hasn't taken any Gold in his life, calling him a noob and writing a long passage (which seems to have been written under the influence of Weed :D) in a crazy font instead of reasonably explaining your side makes me (and others, I gather) have a hard time taking you seriously. EDIT: I must say another thing in edition - telling others to shut up, in any case, won't make them shut up. To the contrary - they will try to explain to you why you in fact ARE wrong, and anyhow saying "shut up" spoils any right you had to be right.

Well, I do tend to be lazy, indeed. But believe me that I'm not SO lazy that I wouldn't bust my ass and go to a rankup a few clicks away... :)

Sorry I couldn't have come... It would've worked out any other day but particularly yesterday I had to go beforehand.. Again, I apologize. :unsure:

I will be there :) For me the best would be a little earlier, but I have no problem to come at this time too :D I would come, but I can't now...

I bought yesterday the crazy drug kit, and forgot to post the picture :D I will most likely be able to come :) I'll try to be available at that time ;)

After having yesterday without seeing a single Gold, today I saw about 10 and caught 3 :) All were in XP/BP battles. ^ Those two were on the same round. And just now I finished my 99,999 XP Mission (I got it after the Mega Kills Mission, and finished it first :)) Tomorrow I only need to earn about 3k Crystals, and I'll have enough for the crazy Drug Kit (1500 Supplies for 105k, 80% discounted) :)

Today was one of my worst days ever in Tanki, and yet I got a somewhat good reward after quite a challenging Camp CTF XP/BP (no Gold dropped even though the fund was about 20k).

It's http://test.tankionline.com. Anyways, the test server is sometimes opened but most of the time not..

The paint will be removed from all those who bought it, except for the winners whose paint will remain in the Garage, with a minor change - a protection from Railgun and Mines will be added to it.

For god's sake, if you wanna get someone R3KT, find something better... :mellow:

I joined some random Serpuhov battle, and found Holy_Hero_Alexxxxx there :) And at the end of the same round (or the one after, I don't remember), I got a bad reward but a decent DL :D

I haven't really had even a word with you (I don't think so), but I know that the majority (including me) of the players in the Forum did appreciate you :D Just like many others, seems like you've already had reasons to leave, but the continuous self-destruction the staff puts the game into is the one to have led you to make your final decision.. Anyhow, good luck with the wife/husband/whatever you're in relationship with (well, I have no idea if you're a male or a female, but that ain't the point :P), and I wish you success in life :)

Not to offend or anything, but from my own experience, when someone says no one gives a damn about someone else - it's him that has that problem. One of my classmates continuously conveys to everyone the message "I'm the center of the world, and ain't no one gives a damn about you". That's exactly what most of my class thinks about him. Maybe that's the case with you? I don't know, but I know that what you said is utter stupidity.

I have some decent knowledge in both Server-Sided and Client-Sided languages, and I'd love to help :) Of course, for free - it's just good for your site, and good for my need to keep on working with programming so as not to become rusty :D

I took 5 minutes ago my second Gold ever in Ping Pong :) Again, I entered this silly battle to complete a 250XP-in-DM mission, and I was using Titan & Isida just to troll and drug :P And the Gold fell, while there was 1 Mammy, 1 Hornet and 1 Viking against me. They had no chance :D

My first gold in a DM for a really long time :) It was a Rio DM I entered just in order to complete a Mission. EDIT: Yeah, it IS a Dictator right next to me that I stole the Gold from, so I feel even better because of that Gold :P
