The references concerning alcohol are salacious and inflammatory. They are unnecessary. While lag is an important issue undoubtedly, this thread is about nick names and is trying to unravel confusion regarding that matter. The nickname data base is very comprehensive and is most excellent. lt covers all scenario.

Things have not been helped by the way things have been handled. Originally a thread was launched that looked very like a suggestion and people expressed their thoughts. Then, an official announcement suddenly followed and the original thread closed.. The announcement was not clear and caused confusion and everyone offering their idea on how it worked. Any way. This is the definitive guide. I have been through it and it explains everything. It is the official wiki version. Read carefully, every ones questions will be fully answered including most scenarios.. http://en.tankiwiki.com/Nicknames

Obviously not polite society :blink: .

I like this idea. It would be much better than repeating the same set of maps for the daily missions.

1 it is a swear word and is also considered a blasphemy. It does not offend me but this is on the www and children play it around the world it is also against the rules. Further more it is just unnecessary. 2 I am very well aware of your hours on your reporting account. 3 Isida is comparatively less powered

Firstly their is absolutely no reason to use bad language such as swearing or blasphemy. 2nd you hardly use Isida at all 0.1 hrs 3rd isida has a very small range and limited power. This is because it has more than 1 function, killing and healing. Compared to the other short range weapons, it has the shortest range. Hammer for example has quite a long killing range and is way over powered OP.

Crystals is all I want. :)

I find that what ever server that I finished on at night, that is the sever that I I am directed to the next day, when I log on. If I finished on EN2, that is where I will open. When I have logged on, I will scan for suitable games that I might enjoy. I have my likes and dislikes. I do not care for overcrowding, with everyone shooting everyone else all at the same time. I will go from the server that I opened up on If nothing takes my fancy and scan the next and go right through, until I have found some thing. Bearing in mind that we have these tasks to complete every day. If I do not fancy any thing, then I will create my own game. I find the lag on full servers intensely irritating and sometimes unacceptable, so will construct on a less crowded server. Sometimes, people will join strait away, at other times, I will have to wait. It is the first opponent that can take the longest wait. Once someone has joined others will follow. I always set low numbers, to give everyone space to breath and exert their own influence on the game. I find that their is more drama with fewer players, especially on the larger maps. However, this will not suit every one. They might find things too tense or prefer the cacophony of a more crowded stetting. Occasionally I find that my wait is too long and will close the game and go to another server and start again. I do not mind waiting a little while and will often read the broads sheet news papers on line or see what is going on in the forum here. I wish that the announcement of the first player was pronounced because occasionally when I am writing here, I jump right out of my skin when a set of twins is blasting in my ear. It must be a funny sight as I frantically try to open the appropriate page out of many to defend my tank. I do often check because of course we are removed if away to long but sometimes I am surprised. Of course any player can go to any server he or her chooses. What I propose, is that the developers divide the servers into approximate groups of rank. With the most junior staring at EN1 and the most senior starting at EN11 and with every other rank spread as evenly as is possible between. Of course players will be able to search for their friends on adjacent servers so long as they are rank appropriate. That is a suitable rank to play with, not necessarily exactly the same rank, just as we have now but perhaps things could be tightened up with less of a disparity between ranks. At the moment, I can invite players as much as 9 ranks bellow which is crazy. Players at the more extreme ends of the long list of servers would be prevented from swapping servers. So for instance a Generalissimo could not travel to server EN1 and smash all the little guys there or indeed the little guys could not go to EN11 to tickle the toes of the high and mighty and irritate them. What I have proposed will ensure that their is less disparity of rank, that their is less over crowding and importantly less LAG. Players will more easily fined players suitable to play with.

I have noticed that also. It is possible that the origin of the game was created by a Colonel or similar rank. The default settings for junior ranks when creating a game is to have the slider bar far over to the left. This make the creator as the lowest most rank for that game. Higher ranks then wander about and find games already open to them. I believe that this wants sorting. Servers 1-11 should be arranged with the very lowest ranks Private , Corporal at say no 1 and the very highest Generalissimo at sever 11. Every one else in between. Players can still play suitable ranks but everyone will automatically log in what has been appointed. When they rank up they might move up a server. The ranks should be spread out in such a way so as to accommodate them evenly as possible Players 1-4 can play among themselves but 1 say cannot play with 5, something like that. When we log on we will automatically be taken to the correct server. This will sort the overcrowding, help prevent Lag and go some way in appeasing the highest ranks complaints about juniors coming into their games.

That is what is always stated. They could easily slit us up into rank groups and spread us about the servers. Generalissimos at one end and Privates and corporals at the other, everyone else spread between. Instead of allowing EN2 or RU,,, from filling up with everyone and lots of empty servers..

Well one short term of absence from you and they can have yours Odysseus! ;) You only need a spell in hospital and that might be it, you will then be oufa19208342 ! :lol:

Obviously just as their is now a crossover of ranks but it need not be a disparity of 9 ranks. It is not require to have corporals logging in the same server as a Generalissimo. Every rank to have its log in Server and then they have some small leeway to move either side to play with ranks that they can legally do At the moment I can set a game with my Rank of Marshal at the top and still have players competing at 9 Ranks below that. Well that is plainly ridiculous. The busiest server for us as said is EN2 unless you choose to go RU. So many congregate in EN2, it is a joke, when their are so many empty or near empty servers.

It is a good idea if folk spread out. It might be an idea if severers were split up in some way, such as groups of ranks. So that all the Generalissimo, Marshals and generals were at one end and the new folk, junior ranks were right at he other end, every other intermediate rank in between the two extremes. This will not only lighten the load but will solve some other problems at the same time. Every one will know which are their severs and which are not. Everyone can find games suitable for them far more easily.

If all players who want drug free battles bought a PRO pass 31 days 5,000 crystals PRO Pass 1 day = 1 EU PRO Pass 7 Day 3 EU PRO Pass 30 Day 10 EU PRO Pass 90 Day 28 EU Everyone would be happy. 5,000 crystals should be a days play for some of you easily. They are all cheap packages especially the 90 day pass for 28 EU. No need for anymore complaints about drug use. The drug users would not have to hear it and tanki gets a little compensation instead of people taking a ride for free. Come on guys, here is your chance to prove your abilities with no distractions.

I disagree isida is quite weak. the strongest short range weapon by far and is way OP is Hammer. The most OP weapon Long or short is Vulcan very closely followed by Smokey. Smokey is op and very versatile. Its shot is invisible, it is a stealth weapon. They are the 3 most OP weopons on the battle front

Smokey is OP, Isida has exceptionally short range and slow reload.

Essentially that is what I am saying, yes. Parkour, OK thank you, I have that now. :)

No need to swear or use bad language.

I do not mean that. To censor someone is to shut them up to punish them in some way show disaproval. Getting caught out doing something that is not allowed may result in some sort of prosecution, short or longer term ban, suspension what ever. However as you have suggested above, they do not check everything out.. they are too few and they normally need good intelligence. That is video or to view the incidence personally.

I do not understand your supposition. Parker can be played with a pro pass.

Then, you will not be allowed to pay Parker or if you do, run the risk of wrath of fellow players and censorship by the moderators and developers.

I am very sorry but can you change the dark red writing against the dark gey background, I can not read it. Please use contrasting colours a bright colour such as yellow, gold or plain white against dark grey.

I left for over a year. I realized what was going on. Shaft was completely ruined. Mults, sabs, mainly CLAN take overs and the intransigent responses from the authority and a certain dev. I returned because of the encouragement of others. I think that one reaches a saturation point when we either leave altogether or for a long while. I see from your profile that you do not play many hours, at least on this account. Perhaps you need a rest from Tanki.

It happens to me when fighting, perhaps the other player is down a slope and I go on top accidentally or even when on the ground and we are all pushing against each other and I just go on top as a consequence. I use isida and might have full life and I know that he other player is struggling, yet I just blow up once I go on top. I have seen this happen to other players also.

This anti cheat thing. Is that where you climb on an opponent to mine him and the suddenly you blow up for no reason at all? I left Tanki for over a year and when I came back I cannot understand why I keep dying even with full life when my tank goes over an opponent even if I did not choose to mount. This irregular because it does not always appear to happen, so I am not sure what the mechanism of my destruction is. Big question for me???
