Here you're examining the actions of Tech Support, and then assuming that they reflect the feelings of all the Tanki staff and community helpers. No wonder you're going to have a bad image of TO management. You're completely right, Tech Support does not speak English well, and they don't care about player complaints. That's because they're not CMs, and they're not community helpers. They're workers who are trained to deal with the same small set of common account issues as quickly and efficiently as possible. If Alternativa only took people who spoke English, the labor costs would go way up. And if Alternativa instructed them to listen to player complains and relay them, their rate of work would go plummeting. If your account is stolen or hacked, that's when you contact Tech Support. If you want to talk to someone who cares, come to the forums and talk to a community helper, Cedric, or Hazel. Yes, actual TO employees can be difficult to reach (though Cedric is exceptionally talkative and responsive, so things are looking up) and I do think that's something TO should work on. Not because it's necessarily best to follow everything the players want to see in the game, but because it's good to have a healthy community in which concerns are met.

But do they? One of the most gorgeous things about writing and all art for me is that in some way, visceral or cerebral, subtle as it may be, everyone recognizes the power of it. That's simply untrue. Go read Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest. Go read Catcher in the Rye. Go read Tom Wolfe or Junot Diaz. Go read.

I think you didn't quite get the magnitude of Cedric's point. He's not saying most things are complicated to change, he's saying every single tiny thing is complicated to change. Nonetheless you bring forth a very good point Swift, and I think it's one we should all heed. The smallest of details matters, and the needs of players should not be neglected.

How am I feeling? I'm feeling due to a complex neural network coursing through my body and engaged in loops of feedback with my brain. All seriousness aside, I'm feeling relaxed ;)

Congraltuionals to personia on his wonderful meta-congratulation.

Surrealist Tanki photography?

Almost, my friend :lol:

LOL, this took me at least several weeks. I remember multiple times sitting on my empty flag base with the enemy flag on my tank, assuming that some stupid glitch was preventing me from capturing. Then one day some random guy told me we need to have both flags to capture. How's that for a noob memory?

If you like this post, you will be injured by a gold box falling on your head irl tomorrow

Hm yes, that would explain why they're building this epic new clan system, continually working on game balance, developing two new turrets...

But they had a sale the other day isn't that clear evidence all they want is money?? sarcasm

Well played :lol:

Hey, me too. Isn't right here such a wonderful place to be?
