I am sure many of you are aware of a major problem that is in Tanki Online. To people who are wholly obsessed with this game, have no life, no friends, spends money, causes one of the biggest problems in this game: those who use power-ups according to the devs, or, to us players, Druggers - the people who instead of spending their money on better guns and armor like they should, spend money on so-called "power-ups" (which will be referred to from here on as "drugs").
Tanki Online is a great game- let me compliment the devs on their work on Version 1.100. The new graphics which I've been waiting a year and a half for, and the CP mode I was excited to learn about, makes this great game even greater. BUT. Even before 1.100 the drugger problem has been here. Tanki Online as many of us know it is no longer a question of how good you are, what guns and what armors you have, but what drugs you have. People can, will, and do drug heavily, even when they're obviously winning. (Example: When one team full of druggers is fighting one brave soul, and that brave soul is using his own drugs but this has happened to him so much he is running out of drugs, and even though the other team is winning by several points or kills they still drug even though there are 6 of them and only one guy on the other team. If you have been in this situation, I FEEL FOR YA.) I have practically 100 of each drug, but I don't use them every battle. I don't even use any every day, sometimes. I save them for a critical moment, like when my tank needs a short boost, like if I'm second on the ranks of the winning team against an almost equal team with some crystals up for grabs and there's two minutes left in the battle, not when there's 6 people on your team and 2 on the other (Even if I was there, I wouldn't even use drugs. I know I'm good enough to get what I need without them. How about you, druggers? Ever fought in a serious no-supplies battle before? I had the fortune of doing so when I got the only no-supplies battle pass in the daily gift that I've ever gotten. Touche.) That's what power-ups are for, and people abuse them!
Now of course we all know about Tanki's No-Supplies Battle mode. But, do you know the problem with that? You have to either pay 1,000 crystals a month for the pass or 50 crystals a battle, and there's no way I can get that many crystals- if I had that many crystals I would upgrade my tank's strength itself, I'd love 1000 more crystals to upgrade my Viking! Even though I play for several hours a day, I have invited several friends to the game unofficially, I am rank Warrant Officer 3 after a year and a half of playing Tanki Online, there is no way I can participate in no-supplies battles every day. And the number of no-supplies battles shows that not many people are willing to do this, either.
I suppose that I want to propose a solution for this (I guess the solution part is in the wrong forum, but whatever, it's connected to the complaint.) Tanki doesn't need to make the no-supplies free (by all means! Keep trying to make money off of those, who knows it may well make a difference in a penny pincher's eyes) although it would be GREAT if that happened. What I propose is that Tanki Online adds in a kick feature, where the person who started a room gets the power to kick people who are drugging so much nobody else can play Tanki Online for what it is, and also this feature can be used to kick people who are being mean or cursing too much in the chat at a time when it would not be picked up by the system or an admin (it's not that it happens a lot, but this is a serious possibility. No program or person's perfect.) If a person is kicking people from the room without good reason- if the tankman has not done anything wrong, but the person who started the map kicked them anyway- then the tankman who was wrongly kicked can re-enter the room and talk to the host.
And if a tankman has been kicked from a room three times in fifteen minutes then that tankman cannot enter that room for an hour. I suggest this part because a tankman trying to bother or annoy the person who started the room may try to enter the room several times in a row to where the tankman who started the room either has to let the offender stay, or be bothered with kicking the offender repeatedly.
And to all you druggers out there, if the Tanki Online developers decide not to do anything about this how about you all go start your own druggers-only rooms and leave us honest tankmen who actually know how to play the game in peace? Unless you want to be cowards and noobs, and fight us and think it so easy with your drugs, if I ever see you i'm going to wait til your drugs expire and in those 30 seconds where you have to fight clean, tank to tank, we'll see who has the REAL skills....
If you want to reply to this poll please do, unless you're a drugger yourself and want to say something in support of druggers. If a mod thinks this post is completely stupid and wants to lock it- well fine, you're the mod, but I ask that you keep this post here to remind the druggers what losers they are and how they are ruining this great game.
