In the original parameters of the thread that congo started, it doesn't say text only, though.

On the contrary. A picture is worth a thousand words. And in this case, and in taking this post independently (as to what I remember his opinion of tanki to generally be), he is of the opinion that the matchmaking system is terrible (based on what his team achieved and what his enemies achieved).

key word.

Time to enter a game and wait on pause until it ends...

You just proved that they don't have to do anything at all and you'll still pay money to play the game.

If bots are a 'thing', then why am I still being put into matches where some of the enemy tanks' gear scores are 2x and 3x my gear score / Would those not be more fair to include bots instead of wildly over-powered enemies?

Just wondering which rule this picture violated. (Or was it removed for personal reasons?) * Accountability: zero.

lol

Was there a release date given...?

And is pausing the bot-juggernot's shot--mid-discharge-- so that it's turret can rotate and hit an enemy tank a new thing or has that always been present?

Does the bot AI turn off for the team that is winning a match?

Lets see if anyone can pick out what the design flaw is here...

That was harsh. I apologize for that. Mostly.

I could not have put it better myself.

do we have a release date yet?

I honestly don't think any of you know what is and isn't a forum violation anymore. This place needs to end.

LMAOOOOOOO 8 kills (4 kills, twice) for gauss on the other team. I'm here for it.

But you were... were you not? Does none of what I wrote jog your memory for forum bans/violations? No judgment, just asking. Ex bakers can still make bread from memory Ex cops still know the rules to arrest someone Ex F1 drivers can still tell you what gear a car is in from the noise it makes.

When did I ever say that? But first. You tell me this. Why is the above post still active, but this was deleted...

I don't think any of what we have talked about are conspiracies. Common sense dictates that it isn't good business to advertise (in any capacity) how many people hack in an online game... (you were the one who brought up conspiracies, my dude). And it's funny that post is even still up because it's literally a copy and paste of statements from other posts that were taken down. You can apply whatever conspiracy you think is going on to that one as well.

You probably don't remember when they actually posted the names of hackers monthly. Anywhere from dozens and dozens to hundreds of names. Which I feel is a lot of hackers, but whatever. Meaning: anyone with any programming knowledge could hack here. Although much like the dwindling player base, pretty sure that number of hackers would have dwindled to barely a dozen as well. They've moved on to something more interesting. And the 'privacy' angle doesn't really apply anymore. It isn't a conspiracy. It's the way they do business. I thought knowing this was common sense, but apparently it isn't. Tanki doesn't like to be embarassed. Anything to minimize embarassment, tanki will do. Hackers are embarassing. But they can't stop hackers. So the only other recourse is to obfuscate the report procedure. No report, no hackers. Ta da! Now, they just give an automated text to pacify the player who clicked on 'report'. lol Watch this (this will no doubt be deleted, so I will also send you this in an email) This is how tanki doesn't like to be embarassed: 1. The glitches and lags are so frequent now, I think it's actually programmed into the game. 2. Tanki is grifting its players out of the money they paid without giving them a tanki classic release date. (and let me think of one more...) 3. The forum has outlived its purpose. There is no community. Only updates. It needs to be shut down so tanki can finally die its final death. I mean, there are more mods here than players... If this stays posted, there are a couple of mods who have some explaining to do. But it won't. Looks like you've disabled the ability to send you messages. Wonder why. Probably nothing to do with a conspiracy...

The reportER, no. But letting everyone know who was successfully caught cheating IS a good thing. There is nothing to be gained from keeping that secret. Unless the sheer volume of reports and cheaters is the secret they are trying to keep.

I just played a game with 6 rails on the other team. Hahahahaha!!! Oh man, I'm here for it.

What is the rationale for such secrecy?
