Episode 63 of the V-LOG is here

[crownstriker 28]

Dota 2 requires no cost to play, and paying is optional and it will only gets you cosmetic equipment that does not impact game play. You might ask why people buy them if it doesn't give them an advantage? Because if the cosmetics are done right, it provides the game a different feel when you are playing, essentially leveling up the gaming experience.

I've got to admit too that you've got a point in that. I was within top 0.3% of the DoTA 2 population before I decided to take a break from it since I need to study for Actuarial exams.

 

There ARE players who spend on cosmetics. DoTA regularly sells items worth $30 or higher in its marketplace. Rare items can go up to several thousands of dollars. Rare, limited edition items can go up even more. A player bought an EF Pink courier for USD 64,000.

 

DoTA still maintains its player pool by having many players who don't buy items to join the game. I personally didn't spend money in DoTA, but I have brought several friends in and 2 of them are regular customers. If the community builds itself right, the game will get going smoothly.

 

Now back to Tanki. Buyers are already alienated enough in the games. Druggers are despised and often scolded if they drug unnecessarily, unless they're on the verge of capturing a gold box or flag, for example, or if there's a drug war. Some players even leave straight when they encounter druggers. Imagine what will happen if the Premium Account buyers start coming in? The community will be further subdivided, and the buyers might soon have to play by themselves in some special arena created for them.

 

Another possible feature that Tanki could implement is Premium Account-only servers, that contain special fun maps etc for Premium Account members. Perhaps even new modes, destroying "zombie" tanks, or whatever, you name it. There the 50% XP and Crystal bonuses can be implemented etc. It can also be implemented on normal servers as well, but perhaps with less bonuses as I don't think many people like that idea.

I am referring to another thing, not to Mia's post on YouTube.

Such comments are really not allowed since they are biased and not completely true, aswell as pointless criticisms made by someone that lost his position.

So now comments are allowed if they aren't completely true? What is this? If I say "Twins deals more damage per shot then railgun", does that get removed? No. So why can't people post their opinions, even if they aren't true? Why can't we, your customers, say our opinions about the game in the game's own PUBLIC forum where we are here to dicuss the game. But no, we can't criticize it. Now we can't downvote updates, and now mods just delete comments against Tanki with no reasons what-so-ever besides bull crap like "it's not true" and videos that contain "vulgar" (that's what one mod told me, while another, I_F, told me it was because was mad about losing his job. So now he  lost it? Because he's clearly stated that he RESIGNED. Do you have any proof he was so-called 'fired'?

I posted the wrong image, and removed it immediatly later :)

The wrong image? What image did you intend to post?

[danstons 12]

Time for some long post..ok not worth it, it will get deleted + 1hour ban :lol:

Everyone wants truth, simply say us.

EVERY normal thinking tanker is on our side, moderators on other, in this game it starts showing things that happened in history

everyone is on one side, leaders (a.k.a admins/mods) start to scam people, people get mad, bad things happen

[Supernatural 2,053]

I would post Arabiannoble's video here, but it would be deleted and I would be banned.

Well, I think that you reserve battles for premium only, is like fighting between druggers only. You level them up like normal tanks. If everyone has the same "advantages", it is not an advantage anymore! So why pay for that?

 

Just to point it out, I am against drugs and their excessive extra power and I am against premium ... both things do and will create unbalance in battle, which generate only frustration on normal players, which still are the majority of players!

In these cases you "buy" skills (druggers call them skills) ... open your wallet and win ... this is the way Tanki works right now, and premium will widen the gap even more!

[danstons 12]

Gonna try to talk with arabianoble about this, !@#$ is going on, we need to fight back, if we dont do it, tanki simply kicks us away, they keep buyers, make OP things like #premiumaccount, they just want money, they dont want happy faces etc.

[Special_HD 57]

You think Semyon has time for this? He's too busy figuring out ways to get more cash out of us to create a pathetic WoT. Maybe you'll be able to buy it soon, who knows?

you answered me.. but where is my post?  :blink:

[Supernatural 2,053]

[Supernatural 2,053]

a post delete happened.

[Guest]

Not being ignorant, simply realizing only now that most of the times there are untold things even to the higher charges of the Staff.

I must say that I am ashamed of what I realized, Arabian, and must admit that I am wrong.

This is my reply to the above accusations. If you have anything else to discuss SPECIFICALLY with me, contact me in PMs, thanks :)

[Pathfinder 1,690]

DJax do you know under what circumstances mods are allowed to delete posts?

 

I'm just really confused - surely as a mod IF would be responding to yourself as a representative of the community. There's no reason for him to delete his post if it's a truthful and honest answer :p

[Pathfinder 1,690]

Oh right, so you accept the truth behind Sami's video? So why are you still deleting it?

[danstons 12]

Whole my life i have been tought to be honest, now when i am honest, my honest answers get deleted..

Well, if 's videos are correct, he is probably forced to delete all these comments of he will lose his job.

 

And apparently  the normal rules of deleting posts have been altered for this event, as mods are deleting any anti-tanki comments that make a good point.

What would happen to me if I posted Noble's video and Mia's pic?

[Extant 154]

Mia's pic is fair ground, arabians would just be deleted, I doubt you would get banned or even warned, I've posted it 3 times, they just get deleted.

Seems like it. So much for constructivism! And mods claim to have freedom of expression lol
