Tanki Online........ Dating ?!

Dating in Tanki Online

 

Yo, this is John_caliber and in this article, I will be shedding some light on dating in Tanki online. Most of you must have seen those words by the moderators; "Tanki Online is many things, but it is not for dating" (not the exact one but it will do). According to me, there are two sides of the coin in this argument, "is Tanki becoming some sort of dating site" or "it is okay to date in the game." With the introduction of private chat, it is possible to date in the game without being seen by the public. But before any of those new chat systems came up players could make private battles or

1 v 1 battles to do dating. This means that it wouldn't be a problem to others in the chat seeing two love birds going at each other because they can't see them. But the real question is, is it okay to date here in this game for kids ( as well as teens and adults)?

 

Well, being a game to be played I do think it's totally unnecessary to date here, provided it doesn't flood the chat with those nonsense love messages. I do not have any personal grudge with those who date here but, think about it, don't you think activities like dating must be done away from the game, hell, I don't mind if it's even done in the forums through PMing. Tanki has introduced the gift system to make it more appropriate for lovers to send their sweet lil' messages yet some people flood the chat with stupid love messages ( well, I am using stupid because I kinda hate it) in public. You could say that "man, just don't mind them" but when their messages go on and on it becomes tough to concentrate on the people you're talking to at the moment and you will eventually see it.

 

Yet, I do not say that dating must be completely prohibited in Tanki. People can do it without flooding or swearing in the public, make a battle and just make it all private, away from the crowd. It's a fact that most of the people today meet their soul mate online. Sometimes they go on talking for months and years until they get together and then there are others who meet very soon and live together. But as I have mentioned in one of my old articles online is not always safe.  Via online dating many women as well men get tricked and humiliated. Well, you can call me a pessimist but that's what I think, on the internet you must be careful.  In Tanki Online as well as on any other online platform you can't trust the person on the other side because you do not see them. I think, to understand anyone you must see him/her in person and talk with him/her in person.

 

Whether you agree with me or not most of the time we are blind on the internet. We might never know who is sitting on the other side. For this sole reason, I think dating here or anywhere else online is not safe. It's a huge gamble where you could either get lucky or either get "f bombed"( in a bad way that is). Most of us say seeing is believing and that's totally true on the internet. People get kidnapped by being tricked into loving someone on the internet and in the name of love they steal their money ( if you don't agree please search the internet for like these stories, don't be too lazy duh..).

 

If you look at this in another angle then you could feel that online dating is convenient because your loved one might be far away and you both can't get together all the time. Moreover, we will have more options to choose from. It's funny because in today's standard most of the guys get hooked up online and their life is online. We must remember that by spending too much time on the internet doing any of that stuff will actually reduce our social interaction skill (well nowadays everyone's social interaction skills suck!!, no doubt).Yes, I know, you all would say hell no to it but that's the truth guys, it does affect us in a big way. Even though you say that you socially interact through the internet but that doesn't mean you're actually socially interacting. You must get out and talk with others to say that you're socially interacting. Moreover it can have a huge effect on our moral values ( more on this later topic later).

 

Well, I went from Tanki Online dating to the whole internet dating. Don't get too much annoyed guys, I just had to add all of these points to make myself clear to all of you. Moreover, this is just my opinion on the topic. No hate on those who do date online or in Tanki. I am just saying that we go in blind and we only see the nicknames and nothing else. Moreover, online dating is not always good, get out and date, its far better. Also, I am just 15 years old. It might be coz of my age that I feel this is all disgusting and you might ask how the hell do I know all these stuff. Well, I know these stuff coz of my wild imagination ( nothing too wild, it's only getting there...).

 

THE END

 

Point out all my mistakes and errors. Upvote if you like this article and please do express your opinions on this topic and what you think about it. I know that most of you guys would think against what I said but these are my opinions and take on the subject and nothing less. It was a common thing that I saw in the chat and I wanted to express my feelings on the topic.

Hey John, you might wanna read this article

http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=211418&view=&hl=&fromsearch=1

And by the way, there are many real couples who 1st met in this game.

So I guess it's not as stupid as it sounds.

Moreover, I haven't seen the servers being spammed with love messages lately.

What's most annoying is the "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" spam on the servers that happens at a frequency of 2 seconds and mods aren't able to do much about it cuz some mult starts off this nuisance every 10-15 minutes. Visit EN3 if you're in doubt

Yes but in my clan, there was only one girl and everyone other were boys. I know her for more than a year and she is a really good girl. I know her character and I love her but she doesn't love me :/ anyways, if it was a sote for dating, there wouldnt be Thunder M3, there would be some stupid things about love. Guys, this is a game. Not the real life! Need a girl? Go find a life first! Tanki is fun, tanki is live but if u need a girl, this is not the right place. Even though its good if u and ur girl plays Tanki :D

(Sorry for my rip english, I just dont have lot of time)

Well someone has my opinion on the topic.

LOL, Thats what I exactly meant at the last few parts of my article.

Normally, other tankers would just ask their social media usernames, Skype, Facebook etc. and contact through there and perhaps video call each other, wouldn't really agree with 1v1 for dating... Good article though, I'll give a +1 for that. It's about time someone actually mentioned this as a Amateur Article.

Yeah, I've seen a lot less love message spam, although EN4 and other low-ranked servers are pretty loaded with them still. There is a lot more sexually explicit spam though, at least in EN3, which I find far more disturbing.

As you go down the EN servers, it just gets worse.

Some people also fail to realize that there are people of all genders playing (yeah, I'd like to say all, not both)

You can blame most of the sexually explicit spam on immature and insensitive 11-13 y.o.

Sometimes I wish this game was rated P.G 13.

Honestly i've met many REAL girls (Attention: Real not fake) and most of them became my friends, we talk on calls like "Skype".. But dating online isn't that big problem, i mean, as you can see there are some people troll the others for money, in the end they figure out that two boys were dating each other xD they just have to go somewhere private that'll be great for you and others.. I know what i've said doesn't make a sense._.
