Myths and rumours answered

You are not reading it correctly. It is a +100% card and +50%. 100+100% of 100 is 200. +50% of that is 300. Therefore it is a score tripler.

During the 24 hours period of Premium I was getting 25 points per kill. 10 for a normal kill + 10 due to having 100% SMP + 5 for the additional 50% SMP due to Premium.

[creeperskelly 1,281]

Oh and I believe that was just after a 25% sale on everything and 50% off credit card purchases. Might of also been a double funds day but not sure.

That graph was after the Valentine's Day events - it should have dropped off, but, did not - this is because the number of players was higher at that time. It actually could have been higher (I used to see as many as 150,000 at times).

 

Here is the current one: no real increase due to the free day of Premium:

 

 

Surprising since it was a day when people could get 50% more crystals for free.

I know, that neither of you is a programmer. But please answer me as you can:

 

When have the game become laggy? I've noticed after the anti-cheat system installment that the game is much more buggy, the servers are wrose. Please explain what you know about this thing.

 

Does the system requirements went up? Since 01.01.2014?

 

Does the Standalone Flash Player using count as using 3rd party-software? As a lot of player use it, it's an important question. If it's legal, then write it down.

 

Does the "claim@" of the customer service answer letters? How much time does it take?

 

TIA

Flash Player is the platform tanki is working on, it's the only official tanki client, which is basically just a shortcut program, if you go on your browser and play tanki there, the browser has to access flash player, just like you would do if you would like to play from flash directly. In my opinion it's better to play from flash directly since it gives you better FPS because it doesn't need to go through the process like browser has to.

I'd like clarification over the rumor that the down-vote option was removed because in trying to implement a reputation system, so many players would have had such terrible reputations using the current data from the down-vote system that it would have caused huge problems.   

[thunderousrailgunner 1,934]

Ostrica said that she lost a lot of mods due to exams .

So , if a player is unable to moderate for a certain period ,

should he be in off-duty and gain the status back when he comes

 or

he should resign the job and apply again once his works are finished ?

He'll get the job back if he wants it. Take Issho for example.

[beaku 2,656]

Eh, ... This link you've added in "Why do helpers even do what they do? " is actually not an interview of mods but non mod players who help(ed) around in forum.

It's just a gossip, the real reason is written somewhere in this topic, if I remember correctly, it had something to do with developers wanting to know the real reason behind every down-vote regarding their updates, and players simply downvoted without comment... Now if they do not like something, they actually have to comment, not just press the button, and every comment is of use to developers.

Depends. Not every case is straight-forward, there are different circumstances regarding each and every one of them. And we're acting according to those circumstances.

Exactly. If a person has a critical attitude towards something, then there is a need and also it is fair to elaborate that attitude. And not only to press downvote button, many of downvotes where abused.

[creeperskelly 1,281]

So upvotes cannot be abused?

[Benefactor 6,888]

Of course not!

[Phoenix.Raised 5,992]

Is there a need to elaborate if you like something? For example in Off topic section, about food, candies, cartoons, movies, animals, music etc.

 

I think not

Wait hold on, what refusals of admitting mistakes are you on about?

Forgive me for not replying sooner. Work n all that.

You see, this is why it's failing. You don't even know what is driving players away despite being told on several occasions. I'm not talking about the events surrounding the recent tanki scandals. It is the constant drip, drip drip of TO nonsense and the continuous refusal to adequately address the negative aspects that plague this game. Game balance and fairness takes a back seat to profit margins. Always has, always will. Here are some quick points. I'm sure there are plenty more things I or others could mention.

 

• Not doing enough about cheats, mults & saboteurs.
• Not punishing players enough when they're doing the above.
• Not rewarding players when they're reporting the above.
• /vote is a /joke.
• No kick as promised.
• Guilty of constantly tweaking parameters to maximise profit instead of seeking best balance. 
• Introducing premium accounts that give power advantages for cash only.
• Tricking players into searching for xt items one week at a heavy cost, then saying they could buy them via premier accounts the next.
• Not addressing differences in the price of crystals quick enough.
• Buggy mouse controls.
• Constant lags.
• Early battle termination saga.
• Increasing turrets but not really increasing paints.
• Taking too long for hammer paints.
• Not doing enough about mindless drugging.
• Nerfing Daily Missions

 

• Changing camera controls without giving us vomit bags first.

 

 

• Adding the dialogue box when changing equipment in battle.

 

 

etc, etc etc...

 

These are the reasons why people leave. Not because someone with an 'apparent' grudge uploads a few videos. But i'm sure you will find a quick and easy way to refute all of this. It's what you do. Let's add NOT LISTENING to the list.

No , No , No yele is not the problem (her duties are of secretarial nature ) , the devs are the ones

Who need a kick.

I want to know about godmode-on

Seconds is some players make clans due to they are friends of esports mods??

Edited October 24, 2015 by asifmehmood

[E.Leclerc 1,887]

This topic should get closed, as it is pointless right now.

Edited October 25, 2015 by E.Leclerc

[asifmehmood 1,576]

No one knows who controls GodMode_ON. We guess he is controlled by a developer but this is unknown. We do know that he is not a hacker of any kind.

Any person can make a clan as long as they read the guidelines first. They don't need to be friends with the mods.

Thnx

Why did you guys remove 100% pass? You guys just spat in our face, you're putting premium members over us. Why? Cause flash will be deleted in 2-3 months.

um lets put it this way, Someone has exams.... it is 2 weeks....

someone has a vacation at work for 2 weeks.... same type of thing.. you aren't going to fire them for that....

now if it is 2 or 3 months that would be different
