Adding number of Win, Lose & Draw figures in profile page.

[Phoenix.Rising 2,519]

What about we add those statistics to our profile page and see how many games we lose/win/draw in each mode? (DM not counted as it's a solo activity).

[generalpotato_PRO 1,076]

All the other modes are team-based, so it doesn't really seem fair if you don't have a good, cooperative team, especially since most of the time, players don't talk in the chat, read it, or even speak the same language. Or if your team is filled with mults and saboteurs. And sometimes you get lucky, joining a team with 2-3 M4 Premium druggers at the top, carrying the team while everyone else is dancing around the flag.

 

So basically, I don't think these statistics would be fair in judging team-based battles. They could add a feature like this for duelists, to keep them in check, because we all know there are duelists out there who only post wins, not losses, then cry by saying "it wasn't official i never said it was official"

[The-Operator219 1,929]

Yeah, judging one person's statistics based on an entire team is kind of prejudiced.

[ELIZABETH1122 337]

How about just giving players the option to show or not to show their profile!

[The-Operator219 1,929]

Why would anyone ever show them?

[Phoenix.Rising 2,519]

The idea behind it was to identify who might be a mult/sabotager in the team because most of them tend to end up in losing games. Then it could be compared to his/her K/D ratio.

Tanki should have a section for Duelists in profile page showing this. I noticed that too sometimes.

I don't think that would be enough evidence to prove mults/saboteurs to be so. But still, I don't think it's fair to have someone's statistics decided almost entirely by their team.

Many people end up on the loosing side of games perhaps more times than they might win.  That does not imply that they are a MULs. They might  jus bet unfortunate in their game choice.  Games can be a lottery, players join them in good faith not realising that the opposing team might be a group of freinds or a CLAN remnant.  Often games have already started, players join and the opponats can just be better equipped.  their are lots of reasons why people might end up on loosing sides.

 

I beleive that the profiles are being used for very negertive reasons, not to mention the invasion of people privacy.  I can understand some of the reasons why their are those who want to pry but this really should be by the consent of the player concerned.  No one asked me if I minded my profile being on display to the public and the whole of the www.  This total lack of consideration brings into further doubt as to how safe any of the other realy personal information about us is handled.  Just what information are they pushing on to 3rd parties?

[generalpotato_PRO 1,076]

Well if you are a good player (reputation-wise) then you should have nothing to hide. The ratings profiles sort of enforce the rules this way. And secondly, Tanki does not have any personal information of ours whatsoever, besides the email you used to protect your account (if it is linked to an email). So excluding the email, there is no personal information that Tanki can use. -_- If people are teasing you over the equipment you have, why should you care? You earn what you earn, they earn what they earn, and it's your crystals so you spend them on whatever you want. There's no rule that you have to have all M3s at a certain rank. In fact, there are no rules at all that restrict what you can or cannot buy with your crystals. Who cares what they think, if you are having fun with what you have, then who cares what they think? Their opinion doesn't matter.

If you buy with a credit card it does have information.  It has your IP address.  It has your real name.  It has information gleaned from conversation.  It has questionars that ask for details.

 

It is nothing to do with being a good player or a bad player.  It is about what people may have bought.

[generalpotato_PRO 1,076]

Well then don't use a credit card, simple. Everything is obtainable without spending real money. It might take longer, but it is obtainable without real money. If you absolutely feel the need to spend real money, buy a gift card that they accept and use that instead. As for IP addresses, of course that's traceable and it's inevitable. Does it look like they're gonna use your IP address to stalk you or sell you out? As far as I know, the only thing they use your IP address for is tracking account sharing and for mods to deal with powerleveling and multing/sabotaging. If you are so concerned about your privacy, go find a different game that respects your privacy, which you probably won't find because you won't find any privacy in any multiplayer game so since you are so concerned about your privacy, go play a single player offline game like Angry Birds which won't steal your IP address or stalk you. -_- Even better, don't play any games at all, or even use technology because your identity is totally going to get stolen by Russian game developers that run a tank simulation game company.

 

If you don't like them gathering info from their friendly player surveys to make the game better, then simply don't take the surveys. After all, they don't force you to, and like any other question any person asks you, you can simply refuse to answer it. And if you don't want people to read your conversations, don't talk. Better yet, don't even do anything in the game because someone will stalk you specifically out of the other hundred thousands of other players because stalking people through multiplayer games is totally a controversial problem today.

 

So... simply put:

Don't want them to take your credit card information? Don't use one or use a gift card that doesn't have your information on it.

Don't want them to know your IP address? Don't use technology at all.

Don't want them to know your real name? Don't tell them, or even more obviously, don't put it in your freaking username. If your real name isn't Elizabeth, then you have nothing to worry about.

Don't want them to read your conversations? Don't talk.

Don't want them to gain information from questions or surveys? Don't answer them or take the surveys.

I am not suggeting that anything improper is taking place but they would have the capability. I never fill in forms that ask private information.  The camara is blocked as is the microphone.  Did you know for instance that FLASH uses your camara and mike by default for instace.  It can be turned off but constantly turns back on if you do PC maintanance.  They could easily monter your viewing habits as many cookies do that.  All that I am saying is, it is my garage, I paid cash for what is in it.

[generalpotato_PRO 1,076]

I understand that you protect your account very dearly because you have spent real money on it, as have I, but now you're saying that the NSA can spy on us through FLASH and Tanki Online? That's kind of absurd in my opinion but hey, what is my opinion worth?

I was not even talking obout NSA or GCHQ because their capabilities are way, way beond looking at using flash, which yes they can do.  I was only talking spying for comercial advantage.  The Evesdroping capabilities of USA, UK, Canada, Austrailia, Newzealand are second to non.  I only mentioned flash as an every day example.  An other example is your smart TV if it has a mike and camara.  Facebook is a commonly used information gathering tool, that even looks into your data bases without your permissions and that is so simple because very nearly everyone tells the world and his confidents eveything but it also uses face recognition software to look at all your stored images and can then link you with people even if you do not name them.  Encription has little difficulties for them eihter. 

 

Your Smart phone spies on you all the time, location, who you are talking to, conversations etc.  Every single thing you do on line or even on your pc, if it is ever linked on line will be stored in an absolutly masive facility in the Nevada desert.  This facility is so large it even has a dedicated nuclia power plant.  It stores every thing digital about practically every one on the planet.  This has been going on for years.  Our landlines were all tapped ever since the old electro mechanical switch gear was replaced by digital facility.  I know this because my farther worked in telecomunication and sypher.  I have met American service people in the UK who tapped phones in the UK at RAF Chicksands where at that time the 1980's every phone line in the UK was trunked  Chicksands no longer exsists now it has been relaced.  Of course no one specifaclly listens to what you have to say unless they have cause for concern but it is all recorded for future interegation should they whish to.  No they do not need humans to listen in, it is all done electronicaly using interegating software.  That is why some people were arested in North Americ or Canada for talking about presure cookers because they were used in a device.  So inocent people had a little surprise when they were raided.  Nothing became of it because they had done nothing wrong but it is just an illustration.  Even private individuals can buy software on the internet that only needs a telephone number of a cell phone and you can intercept private messages, find the locations of anyone, where they have been, it even bypasses encription.  That is because it does not interegate the actual phone but the facilities that support it.

 

 

No I do not think that Tanki in particular is used but many people are just so unaware of just how much information we inocently give out much of the time, which is then gathered for all sort of reasons, military, politica and comercial, not to mention criminal also.

So we got from discussing a new statistics possibility on the ratings page to spyware and the release of personal information for malicious purposes....
