We will announce the results later this week in the topic.

Guys, clearly the link is in there, clearly we will add the channel to the list. You have 3 different links on the info page, I will stand by my crew in this. Put a single, easy to find, top of the page profile link. That's it, no drama.

Possibly in the future, they are equipment.

I wasn't the person checking the channel, but as said above, please remain calm, we'll handle the situation. What I ask you to please do, is to put your Forum profile link first, at the top of your channel info, for checks.

I'll see what can be done, just please, remember it's hundreds of submissions, and it's very easy. One form, one link to submit, once a month. Add a valid Forum link to your profile, like, right now. At the moment of the check up I was assured there was only the Forum topic link. Once again, we ask for a very simple thing to be done: profile link -> channel info.

Please in the coming months add your valid Forum profile link first in the description. On your channel info page, you have 2 other links to Forum topics, not Forum profile. At the moment of the check up, your Forum link was not found and channel excluded.

In the invitation email there are 2 links to Google forms, one for bug reports, and one for feedback. If your email app doesn't allow clicking on link, you need to mark the email as "Safe", and it will be.

I see nothing :ph34r:

Please specify the channel when asking to be checked. Codes are arriving later today, if you're in the list, you'll get them.

Later today, after all the other announcements :ph34r:

If developers don't care, CM doesn't pass the feedback, and support isn't trustworthy to report an employee, I fear my responses, not matter how truthful, won't change your mind. For the sake of the argument, I will share my own thoughts on the differences and type of feedback, and how the modern game development looks like for my profession. So online games have to be updated, monthly, if not weekly. That's a fact, based on a few successful and hundreds of failed games across the past decade since the internet became easy to obtain. Now, imagine you're a developer, and you know that the minute you stop constantly working on updates is the moment player base starts leaving, which means less money to pay employees, who then start leaving themselves, and then the game is truly dead, with no content, no players, no developers. Now, I believe you're not foolish, so you don't want that, instead you will start thinking how to keep players happy, how to make enough money to continue development, and how to plan for the future so the roadway you're running on doesn't suddenly end. From this, you hire people like CMs, to talk to players, organize events and collect feedback, and then you try thing after thing to keep the business profitable. Since Tanki and most online games are now F2P, that's a very thick book of tricks and practices, how to earn money and not make a P2W product players will instantly leave. Drones, supplies, containers, all of that is clearly for profit, but why? To have resources to continue develop the game, so you can say "Tanki ded", leave, and a month later come back absolutely for free, to see new updates and modes like Juggernaut without paying a single buck for them. Sometimes, this produces way too unbalanced mechanics, which favor owners of the new items, and sometimes, they are perfectly alright. You are the judge which are which. So after all that, you have an online game, it makes enough money to keep the lights on, and it's time for Feedback. Outright, most of it is extremely negative, since the price of entry to be in the game is 0, and anyone can create a dozen accounts to spam on the Forum, YouTube, social and game chat. What do you choose to listen? Do you fulfill every request as developer or send lists of hundreds every week as CM? The answer is you run a business. So you base your plan and actions on data first. Did you release an update, it got a giant uproar from vocal players, but 100% continue to play? Then you did right. But what if the same happened, but players don't use the feature or worse, leave? Then you know you were wrong, and this needs to be fixed. CMs will be on the Forum, in PMs, on Skype, in comments and on social posts, answering and helping, but only players, your actual consumers will decide what matters in the end, with actions. Now, you've somehow made it to the end and wonder why would anyone a) read so far, and bee) why would I write it. I ask you, please don't let others dictate you what to think and how to act, do it on your own. Think, how many other F2P games have closed during the past decade, and why Tanki is still here. Think, why do you pronounce lazy number 4, who increasingly wishes to be succeeded, and why nobody comes back. And finally, think, what gets heard by the makers of the game more easily -- a hundred same posts how everything is broken and dead, sent weekly, or a single, thoughtful topic that says "I think Drones or Matchmaking are bad, and here's why and how to fix it". Be smart. Help build it, not destroy it. Aaaaaand that's me checking out for the night! Have a great Sunday and see you tomorrow :)

I honestly urge you to report any dissatisfaction with the work of the CM to official support here. Not even joking.

^_^

Always puzzles me, If the game is dead, why bother coming here? :x We moved to Twitch because Youtube already has V-LOG on Fridays.

We'll see if the email can be sent again in the next wave of invites.
