Hello Newspaper Readers! The Newspaper is back with yet another episode of YouTuber's Interviews, featuring Ghost_Animators! Your love and positive feedback for this series motivates us to bring more. Let's start with some introductions. Would you like to introduce yourself to our readers? I’m Ghost Animator. We are actually twins, but we always use “I” in conversations so it doesn’t confuse anyone. Some people say that is more confusing though. ? By the way, here's a playlist you can listen to while reading this interview. Now, on to one of the most casual and simple questions: How did you start playing Tanki Online? One of my school friends once recommended me Tanki Online. I gave Tanki a try during summer holidays in 2013. I always liked playing 2D tank games on mobile and PC, so I really enjoyed playing Tanki. That's great! You're now one of the most well-known tankers around with your amazing YouTube channel. What inspired you to be a YouTuber? I'll break this down into two sections: How I became a YouTuber and Tanki YouTuber. YouTuber: I had a few YouYube channels before I started my Tanki channel. Around 10 years ago, when I didn’t have the internet on PC, I used to watch AMV’s (Anime Music Videos) on my sister’s mobile. I really liked watching them, so when I first got the internet in like 2011, I started creating AMV’s for fun. I created 4 of them over the course of a year and uploaded them on my first channel. After that, I started working on a few other channels in my free time. One them even got good views. ? Tanki YouTuber: I once asked in Tanki chat, “Who is the most famous player in Tanki?” and someone said “Portes_S”. When I searched it, I realized that he is a YouTuber with almost 50k subs. That was the first time I came to know that Tanki Online YouTuber is a thing. Soon, I started watching other Tanki YouTubers (Miki3, Pizzarafic etc). The content every TO YouTuber used to make was a lot similar to AMV’s, just that instead of anime montages, it was a montage of Tanki gameplay. That’s when I first thought that I can create a Tanki Online channel. I first gave it a try in 2015, uploaded 3 videos and got 40 subs by spamming my channel among my Tanki friends ?. It was allowed to spam channel in public chat that time ?. I left Tanki after Summer Holidays 2015 because of studies. And later, I finally started the channel again in Nov 2016, during the last year of my High School. Ah, what a large journey. How would you define your struggle being a YouTuber to gather subscribers? When I started my TO channel, I already had some experience as a YouTuber. In Nov 2016, I had around 50 subs and by the time it was Feb 2017, I was at 1 000 subs, so the struggle was not much this time. Is it difficult to maintain views and subscribers? Maintaining views usually may depend just on consistency, content type and quality of your videos, but in the current situation of Tanki, it also depends on how popular Tanki is in the given moment. 5 years ago, you may get 100k views for the same content which will give you 8k-9k views now. If I talk about the content that used to receive 20k views an year ago, it may only receive 10k views now. It’s also hard to notice the difference at lower sub count. Like if you have 500 subs, you can easily maintain your views and even double or triple them by improving your content, but at a higher limit like 25k+ subs, the effect is quite noticeable. That’s one of the reasons why most of the Tanki YouTubers usually leave at this point. Because at this point, even if you are improving your content at a good speed, it doesn’t guarantee any increase in views. It's clearly visible in this stat: the most subscribed EN YouTubers (Active) 1) 60.5k subs - Me 2) 16k subs - Jay Tanki Online 3) 15k subs - Jumper There is a big gap which you can see. This gap is created by Tanki YouTubers who left or shifted to other games. I still try to make sure that my every video crosses the 100k mark in a period of a few months, but due to decrease in Tanki traffic, it requires me to put more and more effort each time to maintain it. ? Maintaining subscribers, on the other hand, is not that difficult. Subscribers don’t usually unsubscribe in general situations as long as you are active and providing the content they subscribed for. I see. You put in a lot of effort in your videos, but inevitably, there are a few haters here and there. How do you deal with this criticism? In the words of great Filmmaker James Cameron himself... “---- the haters” - (You know if you know) If someone is constantly being toxic, you can hide him from the channel. Generally from what I see, I don’t think criticism does any help when it comes to creating videos. See, there is always someone who may find your content uninteresting or bad. That’s why videos with even millions of views have many dislikes. So it’s important to understand that even without creating perfection, one can reach the top. On a platform like YouTube, anyone has the ability to criticize, and if you focus too much on the criticism, you may end up making your content even worse. The best thing is to understand the truth. In my case, I understand that my content can always be improved or made better. No matter how great I think I edited a video or how great I think the recording was, I understand that it can be made better. This understanding helps me to focus on the things that eventually help me to improve my content and I'm not affected much by the criticism. That's a very good mindset. Moving on to the actual video-making process: How do you create such unique content in your videos? Firstly, I properly arrange all the recordings. If it’s a gold box montage or such video, I will watch every single clip and rate them on their “Epicness/Rarity” from 1 to 5. This way, while making videos I know how many epic recordings I have and I can then properly distribute them on the best parts of the song. Not kidding. ? Now for editing, I first start by creating a basic draft without any effects, just so I can get an idea. After completing the draft I start doing the finalizing stuff like adding effects, adjusting beats, color corrections, changing clips etc. For this process I will watch the full draft and list the changes that I think are required. After listing I start working on them and then I just repeat this process multiple times. Example from my latest videos. Is it difficult to maintain the YouTube channel along with real life? How do you do it? It isn’t if you know how to. A small story will explain this better: There were 3 friends in a boat fishing in a small lake. One of them suddenly stood up and said,“I feel like taking a walk”. They were in the middle of the lake so the others laughed. But just a few seconds after, that person starts walking on the water. The other two were shocked ?. Moments later one of the two said, “I should join him too”. He stood up and started walking on the water. At this time the 3rd person was like . He said to himself, I will do the same thing. He stands up and says “I feel like waking too”. He starts to walk, but he drowns. After quite an effort he manages to get back on the boat. Now he gives another try. He steps on the water and again he drowns. He manages to get back on the boat again but now he was very tired and exhausted. The other two were watching him and one of them whispered to the other,“Should we tell him where the stones are?” ? Nothing is impossible or difficult if you know the way. A YouTube channel will require some time. If you want to maintain it properly along with real life then you need something for managing time, like a timetable. I’m not saying to make something complex, complex is good but even simple will do the job. For example, you can make a habit that you will spend certain fixed hours daily on you channel. That way, working on a channel will not interfere with other things. Otherwise, what usually happens is that you need to upload a video tomorrow, you start working on it today, and you are compromising time given for your other important things. At the end, you are stressed out, you have anxiety and most probably, the video is still not complete. So, in conclusion, make a manageable timetable and things will work out. Mmm... very good advice! Moving on, let's get to an integral part of video-making: software. What software do you use to take your videos to the next level? Video Editing: Adobe After Effects Image Editing: Adobe Photoshop or Photopea (free Photoshop Alternative) Recording: Mirillis Action This is what I use but it doesn’t mean that these are necessary. If you don’t know how to use After Effects, you can still get great views just by editing using any free editing software. What is YouTuber TO Program and what are its benefits? Tanki Online has a program where you can register and if you get a certain amount of views per month, you will get a certain amount of containers monthly. There are 5 other benefits too: Spectator Account - 8k Subs Special Paint - 20k Subs Can join EN YouTubers Discord server: 2k Subs Press Account - 3k Subs Dream Tank - 1 Million views per month More details can be found in the Wiki. There is a thing that views are rewarded and not the quality of the content, but before there was nothing for YouTubers. So it is indeed a good support. I see. And on to another topic as we're about to wrap up. What are your future plans for your channel? What sort of videos can we expect? To get 1 Million subscribers on a Tanki Online channel. ? That is the main goal for this channel. And it doesn’t matter how popular the game is. I will still figure out some way to get 1 Million subscribers on a Tanki Online channel. For future videos, I plan to shift more towards meme edits like my TANKI_ONLINE.EXE Episode 0 and voice content. Now, let's shoot a different type of questions. What is your most favorite update in the game at the moment and why? New Overdrives. They make the game more dynamic and allow for diverse strategies. They also provide possibility for funnier content. Plus, they are non-upgradable, so it’s good for non-buyers. What is that one thing you would like to be implemented in the game? I would like it if the game can be made more skill based. Online games which are skill based generally follow a cosmetic only model for their economy. So I would like it if Tanki Online can successfully shift to a cosmetic-only economy, which will allow developers to make updates that can make the game more skill based. Any advice you would like to give to other aspiring YouTubers? Make what you like. But what you like may not get views. So you need to make what you like and which still can get good views. To do this, watch the most viewed videos in the genre you are working on. It may be Tanki, maybe some other game or other type of content. Now try to find things that you like in those most viewed videos and try to implement them in your videos. You can start adding one thing at a time. And you don't have to limit yourself to just the genre of your content, you may find something really good in most viewed videos of totally different genre. Like for Tanki, you may find something good for channel while watching video by MrBeast. So always look for what you like in popular videos. If you follow this method then eventually after some time, you will be creating content that you like and which is getting great views. Any last words before we close? We hope you enjoyed this installment of the YouTuber Interview Series. It's been a while, but we'd like to continue the series. Which YouTuber do you want interviewed next? Let us know in the comments, and we'll do our best to bring you the next episode soon!

@SHREYA88 since you didnt do my sign, you dont get my vote of confidence. *cri*

Good luck! ^^

Awesome! Just a side note though: I generally feel that following colors are best for the dark theme of the forum: Bright Blue Amethyst Vivid Yellow/ Orange/ Carrot Bright Silver/ Light grey/ White Emerald Basically, all the light bright colors are good. Other colors look nice too, but sometimes they appear hard on the eyes However, good job in formatting this piece. Keep it up!

As far as I have seen, you appear to be the only one who is unable to understand stats. Fine. In other words, when the poll is only attended by people who havent played on HTML5 version properly* then obviously the poll would be in favour of flash. You cant make a poll between pizza and sushi and then take answers only from those people who have never even tried sushi. Even if you get higher votes for pizza, your results are bias by every definition. Okay, so you played with HTML5 once a month. That ain't enough. The reason why I hinted that you should play at least 3 weeks with HTML5 to decide whether or not it is good or bad is because someome who is used to flash for years would not settle for HTML5. Thats common sense. But you will need to give it some time. I know players who thought HTML5 isn't good but soon got used to it. Before you say stuff like 'defending decisions' do know that I am under no obligations to defend anyone. I can ignore your comments and actually do something productive. But I am here replying because I believe I have a point to defend. Side note, using inappropriate language is an extremely poor way of trying to make a point in a discussion.

One player complains about something = we add it to our report once. A hundred players complain about something = we add it to our report once. A thousand players complain about something = we add it to our report once. Regardless of numbers, we convey feedback to the developers. I can understand your frustration about shaft. I was learning to play better with shaft and exploring its offensive strategies, but now, my laptop does not give a good fps with flash (dont ask why) and html has a bad camera. I am not criticising, I am just explaining how equally frustrated I am about it too. Please trust me with this, we have conveyed it to developers and we will keep doing it till either players stop complaining or the issue gets fixed. We are obliged to do so.

Polls are a very unaccurate way to measure stats for somthing. Its what the higher management thinks. That is because let us say that a poll is made: Do you like HTML5? The reasons why its not an accurate representarion of anything: - Only a minority of players (whether in favour of html or flash) are active on the forum. Let us say 15 players participate in a poll. - From that minority only a small percent will give a valid opinion: assume it to be total 10 players in favor of html and 5 in favor of flash. - Does this mean that HTML is better than flash since it has more voters? Well, the poll says yes, but you who hates HTML version would disagree, right? Why would you disagree? Simply because you will say that HTML has many errors and the poll wasn't fair. Now, that is the exact thing that happens with such polls, only that 10 votes are for flash and 5 votes are for HTML. It is unaccurate because those who like HTML version are happy and satisfied and have nothing to complain about and wont bother coming online to forum to defend something. While flash players don't like HTML version and they would actively remain on a topic to prove their point as they have something they are not satisfied about. In short, since the poll is not being answered by 'everyone', it will not be a valid depiction. If 100 people voting and out of those 100 people, 50 have not played HTML5 more than 3 weeks, then the results will obbiously be in favour of flash. Unless we have a significant number of players who have tried both versions for a considerable time who are ready to five a valid opinion, it will not be accurate. I have seen dozens of people complaining HTML is bad based upon one times experience.

@GG_reg Cgs for passing away and @Apost cgs for help site candy ?

Its in this topic ?

I am not a developer who has the ability to fix such things. I can't do that. I am just a moderator who keeps the problems/bugs/feedback in relevant topics. My job is to convey your said issues to developers in the form of reports. Your problem will not be added to a report until and unless it is posted in complaint book. We don't have alll the time in the world to go to every single section of the forum to extract feedback for the report. That is why we merge your complaints to topics where we will definitely look at and refer to for the reports. I understand your frustration. I really do. I myself like playing with shaft and recently it has had been one of my favourite turrets. But there is little I can do. Hence, I advise you to please be patient. Raging out is not going to help.

Topic Merged Please use this topic for any complaints you have regarding the game and its mechanics.

Well, you can complete missions and gain containers and try your luck at them. It is by far the most financially convenient option and does not involve expenditure of money.

Assalamualaikum Pakistani Players! We are happy to announce that we have created a special discord server for the pakistani tankers. In this server, you will be able to chat with other pakistani players as you like and also be able to past in exotic events (in the future). Click on the following link to join the server: ( https://discord.gg/yZW59wM ) Courtesy of @Do.Or.DiE.

I bet a guy using railgun prime annoyed him bad in MM ?

Weeekkk 125 double armors remain elite.

But honestly for optimum performance with Ares, use mobile version of the game.

Unfortunately, there is just so little we can do for flash now. Addition of ares has created a new set of errors for HTML and flash. However, flash has been most affected. Loading takes a while and over all user experience has dropped significantly. Do you experience the similar probpem on HTML5 too?

Hello! Please use this form to contact the help support. Make sure to specify your problem as elaborately as possible. Feel free to attach a screenshot or a video along with it.

Better wait till the wiki adds the stats for Ares. Then you can make the main topic following the same pattern as the others in the section, or I can do it for you. Either way is fine.

Topic Moved From "Game Discussion" to "Turrets & Hulls" sub-category for obvious reasons ? Not necessary but since nearly all topics here have a poll, feel free to add a poll to this topic.

FeRb! I kNoW wHaT wE aRe GoInG tO dO tOdAy! Weee cant waittt! ?

Well, the idea belongs to the clan system so it will be merged with the category topic in a few weeks. However, the suggested feature may have consequences due to which it may not be implemented. Such a power could be abused. Any prohibitions from chat or the game itself are recorded on the 'karma' of the player, which is heavily taken into consideration for important tasks like when a player applies to be a helper. Having anything recorded on the karma due to a mishap or power abuse will not be fair to the player in question. Also not to mention that some clans have weird rules like 'Only wear black paint for the war' and having a restriction for such a rule that has no basis in the general EULA of the game is unfair. Other restrictions are not necessary when the leader has an option to demote or kick the player from the clan.
