Can a banned player send in-game gifts?

Yes, but the receiver cannot read the message, even after the sender is unbanned, It just wastes crystals.

[GuidoFawkes 2,361]

Yes, but the message they send with gift will not be displayed. Instead, you will see this message: "The communication abilities of the sender of this gift are restricted"

and will they be able to see themessage afteri get unbanned even thought i sent it to them when i was banned at the time?

It also mentions that a player has one month to change a Nickname for free. If after the one month period is over and a Nickname is reported as being against the rules, will the player be forced to pay for the Nickname change even though that person didn't realize at the time of Nickname activation that the Nickname was offensive in any way?

There's no time limit for changing an inappropriate nickname for free. More information.

 

When a new account is created, the person is told if that Nickname is taken and gives alternate suggestions. However, I have seen Nicknames that I would consider offensive and/or against the rules. So, those types of Nicknames are not blocked at the time of being created. 

It's impossible for the system to detect all nicknames that violate the Game Rules - you can report such nicknames here.

 

 

And lastly, you can read more about nicknames here. :)

Can normal players view Administrators profile feeds comments?

[Musa 5,352]

Can a normal account be turned into spectator account? Or all the spectators have separate account for spectating like Spectator_EN_001 ?

 

And the spectators accounts (e.g. Spectator_EN_001) have a tank and they can play in battle too or no?

Normal accounts can be turned into Spectator accounts.

Work accounts cant be used for playing, it's not allowed.

1. Is there a link to the halloween special newspaper with the writing story contest?

2. In the matchmaking test the the main screen which provides battle modes had pictures will the in game buttons have pictures?

3. When can we expect the next weekend giveaway and/or holiday celebration?

[LOLKILLERTOTHEDEATH 1,921]

I find it silly. I feel that paints should be reduced to 10,000 per paint for every single one except for exclusive ones and premium paints.

 

I know someone will say "oh, it's a status symbol." Really? I don't see how "status" makes any difference in any way other than maybe make tankers like me feel that they shall never get their favourite paint (in my case inferno)

It is an intentional limitation of Flash. Most monitors have a refresh rate of 60 Hz, which means even if the game tries to exceed this frame rate your computer will work harder but it will still be 60 FPS on your monitor. Flash is made that way to avoid unneeded CPU usage.

Thank you for your answer.

What about HTML5? Are we gonna be able to 'hack' some good 120 FPS out of it?

This huge amount of new paints make me think that the next rebalance will make all of them cost the same

2. What kind of pictures do you mean?

3. That is unknown, giveaways and celebrations are usually announced only a few days in advance. To get an indication of when certain celebrations are normally held, you can refer to the list @ControlledChaos linked you to above.

 

Why though, it isn't a question.

The question was in the topic title, the question was 'Will the prices of paints be lowered?'

[Nolo 366]

Wey there!

Which administrator/moderator should I contact to question if a specific nickname is in compliance with the Game Rules?

Hi! I play tanki online using a apple macbook laptop. 

 

When I flip my tank and press the delete button to self destruct, I do not get the self destruct option/window. 

 

How do I self destruct my tank, when my delete button does not work ?

 

Thanks very much!

"If there is fn button on your keyboard, just press the fn+del. If not, just press the Ctrl+\."

[vinculum4 11]

Press settings, change self destruct button to --> delete.

 

 

"If there is fn button on your keyboard, just press the fn+del. If not, just press the Ctrl+\."

 

TSY and Musa, thank you both for responding! 

 

TSY: there is no self destruct button in my settings, but again I thank you regardless! 

 

Musa: thank you very much!  fn + del worked!  :)

[Stratosphere 2,234]

Not in game settings ?

Fn + Delete works on Macs.

Aloha,

I'm looking at buying a module. I've decided one of my least favorite things is when my tank gets bounced around by hits while I'm trying to drive. I'm driving a Wasp, so it's light.

 

Which turrets have the greatest effect of knocking my tank around? 

 

Will a module reduce that effect?

 

Mahalo!!

I don't know if any of these are specific combinations on modules, but here are the most threatening turrets in terms of aim disruption:

 

1. Ricochet

2. Smoky.

*insert large gap*

3. Hammer

4. Twins

5. Thunder

 

First two are really a must at least for reducing impact.
