  1. Here are my thoughts on this article. A bit of a rash post; I wrote it on the way to an important race so I was in a stressed situation, evident by my grammatical errors :rolleyes:. Nevertheless, some of my points still stand. Read at your own risk.
  2. Social Activist The Forum Are you a charismatic leader looking for a purpose? Your job is to join a cause, and support it with all your might, mind and strength. We are seeking inspiring leaders ready to take up movements such as Tanks Rights and Isida Equality. If not willing to sacrifice your day's salary of Chicken, this is not the task for you. Above all, we are looking for employees who strive to bring good to society, for example instructing the masses that ADMINS DON'T DROP THE GOLDBOX. Be prepared to work long hours, and to try, try, try, try, and try again. -100 Words

    Unreasonable Ban

    If your friend believes he has been banned unfairly in a game, he needs to send a PM to the Game Violator @Yele. The Administrator will then decide whether or not the ban is to be revoked. Bans are not publicly discussed on the forum.

    Tanki Mythology?

    Some time ago there was an announcement that there had been a Tanki-themed book released. Unfortunately, it was only released in Russian. The announcement is found here: Tanki Online in book form! As far as I know, no other information regarding the Tanki Online book series has been released to the English Community and I do not believe that there is an English translation of the book. If you would like to publish your own stories, you can just publish in them in the Off Topic section of the forum. There is even a Writing Club one can join if they desire. You can also apply to become an official writer when Reporter Applications are opened. But, other than that, there is no official way to get your stories released to the public. And, it would be better to simply create one topic and stick to it rather than creating multiples.

    /vote and mods

    This section isn't for complaining, trolling, or for posting rants. This section is for Technical Problems and Solutions only. If you do not wish to help, or do not have a correct answer, do not reply! Our moderators are not lazy and are not discriminating against you. In order for a battle to be marked for moderators, more than 25% of the players in a battle need to /vote the violator. Also, keep in mind that our moderators are busy and may not have the time to investigate a marked battle or examine battles posted in chat. If a moderator does not come to a battle, you can still report the violator via means of a recording or screenshots. Further information can be found here. Your problem is not a technical problem, so there is not much we can help you with. It is known that the /vote command is rarely very useful, but it is better than nothing.

    [Issue 2] Reporting a chat offender in battle.

    I'm not trying to be a hater, but more than half of this article was directly plagiarized from here and here. Also, a majority of this article was indirectly plagiarized from these sources by simply changing a few words. The parts of the article that were not plagiarized invariable contained very incorrect grammar and other basic English mistakes. And pretending to be a member of the TWG is not going to help your case with becoming an actual member. I'd suggest contacting a Forum Moderator to get the title of this topic changed, as you being affiliated with the group actually may hurt their reputation as well as yours. It appears that starting "guides" such as these is becoming increasingly en vogue, and these guides may be helpful at times. But, there is a point where one can go too far. There is a line between wanting to write/help and wanting to impress others. If you stick to the former of these two sides, I believe you will find that the latter will follow. It is a nice gesture to try to help other tankers. If you do want to make a guide or an article, do so on an original and creative topic. Put as much effort as you can into creating a guide. If you do not possess fluent English skills, others will look badly upon you and it may also confuse the very tankers you are seeking to help. And, above all, do not create a redundant article. If there is a page in the wiki, help site, or newspaper that contains all the information needed to instruct a player on the given topic, there is no need to create an extra item on the forum. The best advice I can give to you prospective writers is to think before you post. Do keep in mind that this is just my personal opinion.

    Let's Discuss Missions!

    Daily Missions are pretty fun. They allow the developers to influence the game's environment for the better. Missions such as "Earn 300 experience points in Tribute" make rarer maps more common, something I am extremely in favor of. The missions that require tankers to play in certain game modes, specifically TDM and DM, also improve the game. The former of these two modes was extremely rare before the introduction of Daily Missions. However, I am not sure how taking supply boxes betters the game. Also, the rewards of various missions seem somewhat erratic. One mission may grant 2,000 crystals while another gives me three Speed Boosts and a Double Armor.

    Let's Discuss PRO Battles

    I really enjoy playing Pro battles; I have owned a Pro Battle Pass since before I was a Warrant Officer One. I only wish more players nearer to my rank owned and actively participated in Pro Battles. It is quite rare to find a Pro battle at my rank. I especially look forward to playing XP-BP games, the XP and BP combinations are among my favorite. Pro Battles offer much more customization to games and simply improve gameplay in general, as only good players with a certain amount of devotion will purchase the pass. If Pro Passes were cheaper, I believe Tanki's overall gameplay would be much enhanced; alas this is an impossible dream.
  9. This is an extremely frequent problem, it occurs to everyone. I have had days where I can't load a single game because of it. If you clear your cache, run the game through Mozilla Firefox/ Standalone Player, and clear Shared Objects, it generally improves this problem. You can also run the game through fixit.tankionline.com. Further instructions on how to decrease loading time and decrease ping can be found here and here. Also, if you have an idea (an abort loading button), please post it in the appropriate section: Ideas and Suggestions.

    How to use test server

    The test servers can be found here. Sometimes the general chat of the test server is purposely closed down and in this case there is no way to reopen it. If you would like to know more about the test server and how to use it, the information is found here: The Test Server. The chat commands of the test server are as follows: /addcry desired amount - This adds crystals to your account. /addscore desired amount - This adds score to your account. Be aware that the chat commands are very frequently turned off.

    What to buy? Which is better?

    If I were you, I would continue on your account. You are pretty far into the game, at least for my standards, and it would be a shame to waste so many hours of playing for nothing. Even if you have made poor choices in respects to purchases in the past, you can still continue and eventually reach enough crystals to have a decent garage. If you would like players' advice on what to purchase in the future, I'd suggest taking a look at this topic: What to buy? What is better?

    Episode 63 of the V-LOG is here

    I don't want to seem overly critical, but isn't this a direct @Contradiction of what is now being released? Yes, I realize that over the course of several months the developers can change their minds, but that doesn't counteract the feeling of betrayal that many of us are feeling at the moment. Buyers will have 20% protection against everything. Is this not insulting to the Best Helpers of the Month who receive an 18% protective paint? If premium tankers did not receive this special paint, I would be much more comfortable with the update. Perhaps premium members could have 50% cheaper micro upgrades, or something along these lines. But, at least in my opinion, the 20% protection paint is too big of an advantage for buyers, chiefly because the paint can only be owned by buyers. If Premium gave another equally advantageous trait, but would not be available to buyers alone, I believe the community would be a lot happier. All in all, I dislike this update, but I can see that my thoughts will not prevent it from being added.

    how to have a test server cod?

    Test Server Codes are given to the Testers. These players are members of the Russian Community and help test new updates and detect bugs. It is impossible to obtain a Test Server Code unless you become a tester, and in order to do so you must speak Russian. If you would like to apply to be a Tester, the information is found here. There is no other way to access a test server code.

    Won`t get crystals back after hacker has spent?

    Unfortunately, there is nothing that we can help you with. It may seem unjust, but if crystals have disappeared from your account over two months ago, the help desk can't return them. This is a general policy of the help desk and applies to all users. It would not be fair of them to make an exception in your case. If they make an exception for you, then they will need to make exceptions for everyone else, which will not happen. On the contrary, you should consider yourself very fortunate to have reclaimed your account after two years.

    problem with new tanki

    First of all, this section is for Forum Games. If you have questions, please ask them at the help site. The following system requirements have been tentatively released by the developers in a recent V-Log. This information is also available at the help site. Intel Core i3. 4 Gigabytes of RAM. Intel HD graphics 4000. "With these specifications, the user should receive a stable 40 frames per second in a full 10 versus 10 battle. Of course these are just recommended system requirements; the game will still run on weaker systems." Finally, if the Unity based version of the game fails to be operable on your system, the Flash version of the game will continue to exist as long as players show an interest in it. If you would like to increase fps and reduce lag for the Flash version of the game, please follow the instructions found here.

    Clan verification

    I believe it will within a couple days, but no one can say for sure. eSports Officials are in charge of the verification of clans, making sure that they comply with the Clan Rules. I doubt that it takes a significantly long amount of time, although I don't have much experience with it. As soon as they have been approved, I believe that they are publicly listed in the Newcomers section.

    What to buy? Which is better?

    In my opinion, Thunder M2 would be preferable to Hammer M2. Thunder M2 is considered one of the most versatile of the M2 Turrets. I personally own Hammer M2 and I can vouch for it was well; it is a very powerful weapon, but it only does well in some maps. Thunder is a jack of all trades that can perform excellently in essentially all maps. M2 Rico is another powerful M2 weapon. It has the highest burst damage of any other M2 turret and won't disappoint. Hunter M2 is probably my favorite hull at both M2 and M3, so I think that this would be a good purchase. As for paints, they aren't that important at lower ranks. But if you are going to use Thunder, a paint that has Thunder protection is helpful as it protects against self damage. Overall, If I were in your position, I would purchase Thunder M2 and Hunter M2. Ricochet M2 would be second best to Thunder, with Hammer trailing last.

    What to buy? Which is better?

    Instead of buying Rustle, I'd encourage you to buy Cedar. Rustle and Cedar have essentially identical protection against Thunder, but Cedar is much cheaper. Dictator M2 is a good purchase if you are trying to take Gold Boxes. However, at your rank, I believe one should be saving up for M3 hulls. Thunder is a lot more pleasant a turret to play with if you are using a paint that protects from self damage. So, if I were in your shoes, I would be more inclined to purchase a paint that protected against Thunder rather than purchasing Dictator M2.
  22. Viking is one of the only hulls that I still haven't purchased :c Although I'm sure this guide would be useful if I used Viking. In all honesty, I don't have any use for Viking, especially when Hunter (my favorite hull) exists. I have used it on my other accounts, and I mainly dislike it because of its low height. This makes it hard to take boxes (especially Gold Boxes!) and also makes it hard to make 'tip' shots. I feel like Hunter is vastly superior to Viking. Hunter's health is very close to Viking's at M3, but Hunter is significantly faster. My only problem with Hunter is that it feels like you are driving a huge cardboard box. Viking has a very satisfying feel when driving, more like a real tank made out of metal. Perhaps I'll purchase Viking and see if I like it. Maybe there is a good reason behind its popularity that I haven't yet discovered. The only problem is that I would have to purchase M1, and that would be a waste of crystals if I end up disliking it.

    Chat moderators For smaller Ranks Too!

    This game needs active and experienced chat moderators. For an active player, reaching the required rank is not so difficult of a task. Chat Moderators are constantly on the lookout on nearly all servers including low ranked servers. They have lower ranking accounts that have chat moderation powers as well. Some smaller ranks may be capable of being a great moderator, and, if so, they can easily reach the required rank within a couple months. There doesn't appear to be any compelling reason to allow low ranks to become chat moderators. This section is for technical problems and solutions alone. If you have an idea, please use the corresponding section: Ideas and Suggestions.
