Why your opinion matters

[r_AtomicPower0 2]

The main hint that should be done is:

 

Stop hiding rules. You have a rule section. You don't even put the rules there. That's how the rules get broken.

 

As for his is Tanki starting to sound more like a company saying all this or is it me

you couldn't be more right!! It's sad though!! :(

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

He said in previous topics that they would be changed, we just don't know when.

Still waiting for Kits to be changed. Hopefully they come soon. Brigadiers with M3's, Majors with Prodigi, Druggers 24/7 everywhere you look, yuck.

love the game until recently 

im getting very bad  constant  lag resulting in my tank jumping frames this happens mostly when near a wall or under tunalls 

i can not judge the movement of my tank accurately and im finding this problem increasingly frustrating

 i live in uk my system is win7 3gb ram duel core  possessor i should not be having this problem 

why is there even more bad lag than before it is getting to the point of not worth logging on to play 

almost as bad as CO 2.0 or is it assasin now they got so  many hackers and bots running it

lags the system and forces DC is this what is happening with me hear 

i would like some sort of reply on why this is happening as it is affecting the game play to much 

and it really is frustrating lets put it this way im frustrated enough to be bothered to type this.

some kind of answer is appreciate

i really don't want this to be passed under the carpet and ignored it is a  problem at times for me

any one else have bad lag issues ?

The only time I have lag issues is when I have too many tabs open at one time, or if my computer begins to overheat. Maybe your computer is overheating or something, and needs a cooling fan? Of course none of us can diagnose your problem properly without more information, maybe you have a connectivity issue with your router? Possibly the bandwith is being taken up by others sharing the same cable network in your neighborhood? You could try going online at a different time of day than you usually do. And of course you could always turn off as many options under settings as possible, and minimize your screen 30-40%, this seems to have the strongest effect for me, when trying to reduce lag. Also clean your temp files on your browser, and make sure you dont have any viruses on your computer that you are unaware of. Aside from these things, I dont think theres much we can do to help you. I hope you find a way to resolve this problem you're facing, it certainly sounds frustrating.

Yes, really major. But I can't say what it will be as if I say and it doesn't happen, you will eat me, won't you?  :lol:

Does that mean MUs aren't a gamble anymore? :)

Does that mean MUs aren't a gamble anymore? :)

This^! You should get what you pay for! Is that not the very idea behind making purchases...? Who wants to walk into Mcdonalds and spend 3$ on a large order of Fries, and only have a 50% chance (or less - depending on how many fries hes purchased in the past) of them being in the bag once he leaves? And then he brings back his receipt and says, "HEY! I ORDERED FRIES WITH MY HARD EARNED MONEY! Give me a refund!" And instead, they say, "Sorry!" and hand him back a couple gross burnt fries and a package of ketchup and mustard. (Drugs)

 

Does that really sound like a sincere apology? Hardly, it sounds more like robbery.

Lately we’ve been getting more and more feedback from players about some issues. I’d like to express all my ideas here and announce something small but nice in the end. Let’s start.

 

Freedom of speech. Constructive criticism is always welcome. Showing anger, insulting game and its creators is not and will result in certain measures taken, up to warnings and finally, bans. Negative doesn’t necessarily means bad. Negative comments on MUs resulted in a major rethink of the whole system. Many complaints about the team kick will most likely result in it being disabled or adjusted. Physics update that got many comments from members of the community is not an exclusion. It resulted in the group of English play testers that work directly with Hazel-Rah and make physics better for all of you.

 

Bans. Do not break the rules and you won’t get banned. Of course sometimes it is difficult to see what breaks some rule and what doesn’t but we are doing our best to find this edge and tell all the players where it is. Do not be afraid to complain or ask. We are here for you, not the other way around.

 

Fun. In a recently made topic an interesting issue was raised. Generally it’s about the fact that the forum is not as lively as it used to be. The thing is that our community gets bigger, newcomers arrive every day. The more people we have, the more threads and comments are made. The more content we have, the more important the rules become. Following them is a vital thing and there are problems on both sides. Moderators make mistakes sometimes and close topics that could stay open without causing any harm. On the other hand, players basically kill genuinely interesting discussions by going off-topic and starting to create chaos. And here I’d like to say that unlike our little trolls, I don’t think that chaos is fun. And we can have fun without breaking any of the rules.

 

Now about that small thing that I promised. At the end of this month we’ll start a topic where the community will be able to choose the best assistant of administration in each group (chat moderators, forum moderators, consultants, reporters). It will be just a first try and if we see that the community is mature enough for things like that (there won’t be discussion of moderation, insults, threats, etc.), it will become regular.

 

Victoria (community manager responsible for all the administration helpers) and I discussing the community's voting on best assistants.

 

So what we need to do is work together (players, moderators, community manager, everyone) and make this forum a better place. Following the rules is not that difficult and there is no need to be afraid of them. Just be constructive, share your ideas and of course be polite. And things will get even better.

 

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. (quote from a fruit.inc)

can some vote for me or is only for mods?

[smashman777 104]

OK

1.Alot of players (including me) want a refund when the new physics come out, if no then i don't see a point for this topic.

2.the kits give an unfair advantage as mentioned above they will be adjusted (hopefully)

3. I appreciate this topic and please listen to our opinions very carefully because i have seen hundreds of times People will want a refund for new physics. You guys said there was a refund during rebalance because there was major changes but physics will not be minor.... It will drastically change the whole gameplay!!! PLEASE refund -_-

1. Well this topic does cover a bit on MU's. At least those are getting changed. :)

 

2. I agree. Majors running around with Prodigis and Brigadiers running around with full M3's like Titan M3.

 

3. I just want a refund on Hulls. .. I don't care about weapons. Either refund hulls are buff up Mammoth a bit. Worst hull ever when the Physics come out- can't deny that. :D

[Opex-Rah 5,388]

PLEASE refund -_-

I do understand everybody would like a refund but it will never happen from now on.

 

This got nothing to do with US not listening YOU. Problem is — every refund ruining the game. I can put aside technical problems, which are important nevertheless, and bring up economical problems. Refund with rebalance was not an easy decision and we had serious problems afterwards. Remember update 123? You do not think that theese two releases was not connected, do you? Every refund WILL bring another "update 123" because refund ruining the game economy. You asking us to refund at physics update though we not changing entire economy and leveling system, we just fixing gameplay as it should be fixed long time ago. This is balancing, NOT rebalance.

 

Now, I am not asking you if you want refund or not, we are clear here that you do. What I am asking you is do you want another update 123?

 

If you ask me, having something like we've done with funds is far less fair then not giving you another refund.

[KunGawuliak 191]

^complety agree, no more update 123 please... Refund will make players happy for 2 days and when they will see what really happened, they become angry, cuz druggers have more drugs and ppl bought stupid things they don't want

[blasterbros 7]

Good job.

I'm here for 2 years, have been in other forums aswell before. I've pushed my head many times, trying to understand why people break rules. And I still can't get it, maybe I'm not intelligent enough, or breaking rules is really as pointless as I think it is...

 

Insults, swearing, etc. - let's say when you have difficulties in your life, bad things happening, bad people doing stuff that makes your life hard - of course, sometimes you need to shout or swear, to take the energy out of you so you won't explode.

But well, that's real life, real problems. What about Tanki, chat and forum? What are those extremely terible things that can happen here to make you insult someone? Someone won your battle. So? It was your fault that you weren't good enough/didn't have drugs/lagged/computer fell off the table. Someone laughed at you, thinks you're a noob - so? Just ignore him. Swearing or insulting him isn't worth it - it will change nothing. Plus you'll get a ban.

 

Discussing mods, admins, bans, rules - it was said before - you can't discuss mods' or any other staff's actions in public. Ask them in PM/Skype, etc - sure, even argue with them - do it, if you have a reason. You have complaints against some staff/you got an unfair ban - send them to the respective admin. If you're afraid he'll support 'his guys' and ignore you - then write to Semyon. You want to change the rules - they're written by lawyers and include legal stuff and terms. Staff can't do anything about it - we're just volunteers who work in chat/forum. If you have complaints against the rules - again PM Semyon. If needed he'll discuss it with other devs and make a decision.

 

Mods/other staff violating rules, taking wrong decisions - staff groups have their own rules, we read and agree with them the day we get appointed. Breaking them or the general game rules can lead to getting kicked from the position/blocked. All our actions are logged and can be easily checked by devs. Usually if some staffer breaks game rules or his staff group's codex, this will be soon spotted by the administration and he'll be punished.

Still, if you feel someone from the staff doesn't do his job well and needs to be removed - same as with the bans - PM staff group's admin, if you don't trust him - write to Mr.Kirov.

 

Trolling - tell me, what's the point? Can be funny once or twice..but when you do it every day of course you'll get a ban.

Back to my question, what's the point? Pissing people off - fun? Where exactly is the fun? Flae99, flae9999, flaeblabla - guys, don't you get it? You troll and get a ban. Then you make an alt and troll again. We ban it again. You make a new one - gets banned again. Instead of messing with the forum whole day go eat something, meet friends, meet the real life...

 

Some troll who recently, of course, got banned, made a topic saying 'WE WILL RULE THE FORUM BE PREPARED THATS A WARNING' - Dear Player, I'm sorry to break your dreams but this just won't happen. You'll keep making alts which will get permanent bans the same day, endless circle. Is that what your life has to be? Stop breaking rules, start being normal, talk, discuss and have fun like most of the forum members.

Hmm,I agree... I don't understand why people break the rules.As for my other account Turpz the only rule iv'e broken is impersonation... uhh.. Don't judge!Anyway's my point is that iv'e seen almost 1,000 topics that just troll or pointless and locked in the Archive section... Wow,Just wow..

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

we just fixing gameplay as it should be fixed long time ago.

Then why was it not done when it should have been? Re-balance should've done its job- to balance. We've bought what we wanted with the current stats. And now you change them again. So in general Devs messed up.. :P  :lol:

The rules need to be more plainly posted. i had no idea there was a "post it once" rule and got banned for an hour!! And also they need to make sure you're really cheating!! Listen to this, i was banned for a day for "using third party software to gain advantage in the game" and I NEVER did that 'cause i don't know anything about hacking!!! Just saying be SURE you ban the right person and not another innocent player!! Also what is the point of this topic?? :huh:

The rules need to be more plainly posted. i had no idea there was a "post it once" rule and got banned for an hour!!

Even if it's not formulated the same exact way, it exists

2.3. - flooding (sending messages that contain repetitive symbols, posting more than one same or similar posts

Applies in both chat and forum

And you haven't been banned for that, atleast on this account

 

Listen to this, i was banned for a day for "using third party software to gain advantage in the game"

No, that hasn't happened (again atleast on this account)

Plus, hacking (use of 3rd party soft to obtain advantage in battle) doesn't give you a day ban, but an account block.

Have you forgotten who you were a year ago?

 

-_-

 

Also, you can't make everyone "perfect" no matter what you do, there will always be people who break the rules.

 

So uh, yeah, if that's what you are aiming for, sorry to pop your bubble, little mods, ain't gonna happen.

You mad bro?

 

 

 

and remember when you got an hour ban for trolling? 

and that time you never got banned for flooding? 

[FederalBureauFBI 2,881]

As far as I remember I never said I'm perfect nor that I haven't gotten any bans.

Yes, I'm wondering why people break rules, I'm even asking myself why I've done it too before. Is that a problem?
