I agree, they will not change it back. But I'm pretty sure it's for a different reason than above. Tanki has lost so many players that they can't dedicate as many servers (or as much bandwidth) as they used to for as many maps as they once had available. By limiting the number of maps, it funnels all the remaining players into predetermined maps--the ones they still use. You'd be waiting forever for enough players to join your game with the old system, so this means less maps. (Remember when you used to be able to make your own map? Yeah, those days are loooong gone.) It's unfortunate because I personally liked skyscraper, but that one isn't available anymore.

Currently, there is a basic misunderstanding of the chat rules by the tanki team going on within the world of tanki. There are some tankers that provoke and insult, flood and use profanity and are not punished by any of the moderators or administrators. There are even moderators from other servers that come to this one to ban tankers in--what I can only assume--is a personal vendetta against some of the players here. For there really is no reason for them to leave their own server to moderate or play here. I have proven to marcus, rommel, and dark that an uneven and bias enforcement of the rules takes place--with screen shots of the offending accounts, what they say, and what violation has taken place. However, those mods/admins seem either unable or unwilling to enforce the rules on those specific accounts. As such, tanki promotes a bullying and unsafe space to speak when rule enforcement is selective to some and not to others. I'm sorry you got banned in the manner you did. You are not alone in feeling this way.

You are more likely to get a ban depending on who you are rather than what you say. I was banned for 160 hours by a DE moderator here (twice) for accurately calling out ineffective moderation. One ban was reduced for being unfairly harsh and the other wasn't. I personally didn't care about either of them. However, I have proven (to the admins and mods) that some tankers do not get banned for chat violations and others do get banned for the same violation. So, my answer continues to be that the rules are not enforced equally for all. And thus, because of that, bans cannot be considered justified.

The Q&A section serves as a place where you can ask questions about Tanki Online, and receive a relevant answer from the community. You can leave your own answers to existing questions and vote on other users' answers. The answer with most votes (not to be confused with "likes" and other reactions) will be pushed to the top. Moderators will also sometimes manually mark certain replies as correct answers. All questions must be about Tanki Online or aspects related to Tanki Online.

Why does tanki have such poor reviews? A quick google search: 1.6/5 from Trustpilot 2.8/5 from Facebook 6/10 from Steam Metacritic: Positive: 3 out of 15 ; Mixed: 2 out of 15 ; Negative: 10 out of 15. The only positive review is from android mobile with 3.7/5

Hey! Appreciate the answer. However, one of the people I communicated with is a Head Administrator. Sadly, his name has been redacted from my question. But lets just say his name is [edited]

Just wondering if it's a tanki policy where the staff member you contact stops replying to your concerns. I mean, [redacted] seemed to read, but not be able to reply to any messages I sent him. Maybe he didn't understand what I was typing. Or maybe he was unfamiliar with the english words in used like 'inconsistent', 'bias', and 'unfair'. Not sure. And now it seems that [redacted] isn't able to reply to a message I sent back in mid-November. Did I use words that he was also unfamiliar with. My question: Is not replying to a message standard tanki policy when clear and irrefutable inconsistencies in chat moderation is brought to their attention? (And before you state that a moderator/administrator must be contacted to resolve the issue, re-read my post because i have clearly stated that I have already done that. And please note, I have only asked 1 question.)

By the way, it's a valid question.

What do you do if you've posed a question to both chat administrators and they have chosen to read your question, but not reply to it?

Interesting. Because I was using the EXACT same words and phrases the person who told me to kill myself was using, yet he is not banned, but I am. Can anyone explain this? ANYONE AT ALL?

Then why is the player [redacted] telling me to 'kill urself' in the chat? Should he not be banned?

I don't think it is, but it seems the moderators and everyone else involved with this game seem to have selective enforcement of the rules.

...telling someone to 'kill urself' allowed in the chat arena?

How come some people here are allowed to insult and provoke others but when the EXACT SAME language is used by others, THEY get banned?
