anyway to be honest I see no problem with the private chats. If you are worried about your children getting exposed to vile words/actions etc then you might as well be worried about the millions of other ways your children can get exposed via other applications... like facebook and skype for instance. it's more educative to actually teach them why something is wrong, and how to avoid it.. instead of putting a wall behind a problem they will anyway have to face one way or another in their lives.

let me remind you that most players are ... children.

no news on unity i guess the developers have given up

Unfortunately, your proof is not sufficient to take action.

I think the whole generalissimo thing is over rated. I remember when I was a low rank every time we saw a generalissimo around everyone was like "whoa, dude awesome!". Then you rank up to a generalissimo and nothing has changed, everything is the same, you keep on playing and no one cares. The only good thing for me as a generalissimo is that I get to play with other generalissimos so the game play is usually of high quality.

shaft, with the laser it's completely useless.

You are not a terrorist, so why do you care if NSA is spying on you! This is exactly the type of your argument. How is it not sensitive the information about what you have in your garage? Would the information about what you have in your wallet right now NOT be sensitive to you? Because it is basically exactly the same thing. I have things in my garage, which I bought during my career in this game and I do not want to make them public. Would you like it if your bank decided to make all your purchases public? Of course not. This is exactly what is happening here at the moment. And I do not care if you have no problem making everything regarding your account public, I do, and I should have the right to be able to HIDE the personal information I consider to be sensitive, for what ever reasons I might have. They are personal, and as a person, I have the right to be as much sensitive as I want about them.

Notify any new customer that you are planning to keep track of every single thing that they do in the bar, and then make this information public, and the new customer will make a smooth 180 degree turn and head towards the entrance door, expect now not for entering, but for leaving. And this is why no bar actually does it. I think there is a word for this, oh yes, it's called stalking. Looking at your garage, sounds quite the same as opening your wallet and looking how much money you have inside. Hackers would of course be willing to know if spending that extra hour trying to find your login details is worth it. I am not against the idea of this update, what I am against is making everything public without the user's consent. Facebook and every other major social media website has the option of blocking strangers from viewing your profile. Why? Because of privacy concerns. And apparently tanki online does not care about the privacy or safety of its users, at all.

I can't believe there is a staff member who has 0 common sense. However seeing how the majority of the community consists of under age teens, one should definitely expect the level of response I just received from Reeco9. read this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_privacy to educate yourself.

Privacy (/prɪvəsi/ or /praɪvəsi/; from Latin: privatus) is the ability of an individual or group to seclude themselves, or information about themselves, and thereby express themselves selectively.The boundaries and content of what is considered private differ among cultures and individuals, but share common themes. When something is private to a person, it usually means that something is inherently special or sensitive to them. The domain of privacy partially overlaps security (confidentiality), which can include the concepts of appropriate use, as well as protection of information. I do not know about you guys, but the amount of time I spent using a specific gear, is private. The amount of time you spend on anything, is and should be private. Any statistic generated by the way you choose to live your life, is and should always be private. Unless tanki online gives the ability for us to hide such sensitive information, I am officially done with this game. You can do what ever you want with the features of the game itself, but when you invade my personal space and not only that, but you also make everything related to it PUBLIC, then this is a red line that once crossed, there is no way back.

All profiles will be publicly visible, which means you’ll be able to view the profile of any tanker, whether he’s on your friends list or not. To do that, you will simply need to find his page using the search feature on the site, or by clicking on his name inside the game and selecting “Profile”. I find it difficult to believe the developers are willing to just publicly display such sensitive information without our consent. This is ridiculous.

terrible

I am sorry but I am calling a privacy issue here. Shouldn't it be optional for someone to display such information in public? I would down vote this update given how careless the developers apparently are with privacy issues. Sure, death/kill ratio sounds fine. But why do you also need to include the hours you have spent using some specific gear, the crystals that you have and the contents of your garage? What the hell is tanki online thinking? I can't believe how much praise this update has received from the community. Are you guys literally blind?

I couldn't have said it any better, +1000 drugs give you an unfair advantage over someone who might not want to buy drugs or simply not able to afford drugs. Like you said, Agnostick, you got sick of that Iron Force game due to its imbalance. Well, drugs do exactly this, they cause unnecessary imbalance in the game. And that is why so many people hate them.

They want to squeeze as much money as they can out of this game because they know once they launch the new version most people will stop playing the current one.

if they can't get a simple page up and running, one can only imagine the quality of the new game

I remember some administrators supporting the notion that the reason why we do not have any serious Esports at the moment is because the developers are too busy developing the new game. Oh yes sure! But they always have the time to figure out new ways of extracting money from the community. This game is going downhill.

change the title to "Tankionline has officially become a pay 2 win game!"

Do not try to divert the subject by focusing on Arabiannoble. You are suggesting that his video broke the rules, which is fine to me. However, so did that other post that attacked me directly with insults. Instead, you decided as an administrator to just change the text while intentionally leaving all the insulting implications in place. The other day I wrote that the administrators do what ever they want in this game, and that this is a sign of corruption. My assumption was based upon a fact that Ostrica in a civilized way came to invalidate, so I silently accepted that I was in the wrong and moved on. However from the way you actually treated this situation, the initial assumption I made about the administration doing what ever they want that still continues to be valid. As a last note, I did not enjoy the read, and I was very close to dying from reading that wall of nonsense text with random quotes and pictures from random skype conversations. If you want to make a point, you should start by figuring out what is the point that you want to make. Then you start by writing a small introduction, the main paragraph with all your arguments, and the conclusion to give your final point a strong stand. I recall learning that from when I was in primary school. You are doing exactly the opposite thing, and as if that wasn't enough, you always start your posts with irony, and no matter how strong your arguments might be, your "you are stupid and here is why" approach automatically weakens them. I joined the conversation in this thread because I was in doubt about the ability of some people in this game to run the sections they were assigned to run, in a proper and meaningful way. You confirmed my doubts. I am done with this thread, I will go on to enjoy the game, what ever there is left of it anyway.

you didn't seem to be that thorough when you removed Arabiannoble's video. All of a sudden you are doing an in depth analysis of whether or not to remove a post, that was clearly breaking the rules. But hey man, don't worry I get it. My posts make your feelings hurt, so of course you would avoid as much as possible to do anything against those who directly insult me. I get your kind, don't worry. As for the insult, I don't need it to be sent via pm to me, I am not a child, nor a teenager. Keep them to yourself if that makes you feel good, you know, remembering and all that it was used against someone who hurt your feelings.

the fact that an administrator just edited some parts of the text instead of removing the entire post, since it's provocative, insulting and purely pathetic shows how well qualified are the people actually running this game. keep it up

no you got it right, 10 is actually an under statement :)
