Ask a Battle Mod

[imstillherelol 46]

Please answer it. I am really interested in this question. Btw awesome strategy.

A mod already answered it and suggested to report yourself in order to know if it's considered as sabotage or not :rolleyes:

 

Thank you for chasing him up, maybe another mod will notice your post and finally give us a real answer ^_^

If you guys asked that it violates the rules and will result in a ban or something. The answer is: NO. This strategy is also used by several E-Sport clans in tournaments and i think i do not need to remind you that their battles are SPECIALLY moderated.

I am just answering the questions because i know the answers and it helps both the battle moderator and the players, If you hate me for doing that or find me annoying just say so and i would stop doing so.

Please, Stop doing so.

[Cpt.JackHammer 1,473]

Please, Stop doing so.

Well, I don't really want to, but okay... i dont want a fight

[Cpt.JackHammer 1,473]

Well, they arent answering any questions.

Ask me, I will. I have studied rules of this game and have seen battle moderators solving almost any problem that an average player would have to deal with: Hacking, Mult, Sabotage, Making STG wrong, Swearing alot, Battle timer stuck, and etc. I will provide you with the best answer i can.

Can you please provide a video where this tactic occurs? I'm willing to believe you only if you justify your argument ;)

I don't get what to answer in that.

                      I meant that if the strategy quoted by me in that post is considered sabotage?

      Another question for you. Once I was playing in Island TDM. Our team was leading. Suddenly a drugger joined enemy team. It seemed that they would cover up the lead within remaining seven minutes of the battle and we would lose. So I suggested my team mates to pause the game and when timer is about to run out then press any key and then pause again. In this way they would not be getting any kills as we wont be spawning. Resultantly they would fail to cover up the lead and lose the match. As it turned out, I was in Russian server so they didnt understand my single word. So we kepton playing and lost the match.

                    So, if they had followed my strategy, would that had been considered sabotage?

I would have to find that now, And i am not really the guy who likes to do that. You could ask Clan moderator because if a clan uses this tactic in a clan war, The other clan will start fight saying that this was wrong and no one won. In this case, a clan moderator would come and clear the misunderstandings. So the best option now, Is to ask clan moderators or you eSports officials.

1st tactic is not a sabotage or anything. 2nd one, I'm not sure. Tough question, damn. See, You guys are multing which results in a bann but you aren't multing to lose but to win. For example there's a battle you are sure to lose and you mult in it. You get banned, right? So this battle you are multing to make the enemy team lose and which makes it an unfair play. It would result in kicked out of battle if enemy team reports you guys.

If it still doesn't clear let's just say that there's a battle going on between 2 eSport clans of TDM and one team does more kill and pauses, Of coarse that would be cheating there, So it's the same for normal battles. Hope it helps.

OK, I have one big question regarding parkour mode.

 

I've heard of multiple cases where players get kicked (and I think even banned) for shooting others in Parkour mode. I'd like to point out that nowhere in the rules does it say that shooting other players in Parkour mode is against the rules, so mods punishing players for it is technically power abuse. I always tell players that if they don't want "ruiners" to disturb their parkour, they need to get some trusted friends together and do parkour in a private battle, like all the decent parkour clubs do it. Public parkour battles are just fun games with no rules, basically "chillout rooms", and trying to do any kind of serious parkour in there is pointless waste of effort.

 

So let's say this "no-killing rule" is added to the main Game Rules and "sabotage" in parkour battles becomes punishable. But even then I would not agree with this kind of decision because it's basically a waste of time. A Russian moderator told me that battle mods don't kick shooters in parkour right away. Instead, they "enter the battle upon responding to a /vote report, find the reported player, observe them for a long time and then make a decision based on what they saw". I understand that this is a logical process to make sure that no honest player get kicked for shooting (e.g. if they killed someone accidentally). What bothers me is that battle mods waste their time dealing with some silly "ruiners" in parkour, instead of focusing on actual important issues like reports of hackers and sabotage in normal battles.

 

In a nutshell, my question is: why do you think that "violations" in parkour mode are worth spending your precious work time on, instead of dedicating it to actual battles?

Well, the same thing happened to me in Kolhoz a while back. Someone was killing everyone else in the battle when we all reported him. The mod asked him to stop but he didn't, that's when he banned the player from the server for one hour. Since a mod asked him to stop, but he still didn't, I think it was pretty fair that he got the ban.

Invite your friends and beat them.

I have reported many noobs for holding the flag for 5+ minutes so that we can't catch up with the score and beat their friends in the enemy team but I always wondered if holding the flag for the opposite purpose was also considered as sabotage...

 

In the video below, you can see my sweet favorite Isida supporting me while I'm holding the flag so that enemies don't return it and capture ours. Given the team we had (a common team by the way <_<), I felt that we had no chance to win this battle the "regular" way as enemies would have easily capture enough flags to overcome our score. Therefore, we saved time and won by holding the flag for 9 (!) minutes.

Even if our flag was returned, I would have remained hidden... Would it be considered as sabotage even though my action was beneficial for my team?

 

Why you don't post the music in vidéo, it's funny.

floods why not this game is so stupid and when i get my losing crystals back

Can you explain more please about your problem , maybe we can help you .

 

hello!

Is completing missions of finish first in battle, cap 10 flags/points etc allowed by making a private battle of 1 cap and 1 member and finishing first OR asking a friend to help u in battle to complete mission? is this allowed?

Daily Missions only works now in NON-PRO battles , so private battles will not help you !

 

 

Is using bad equipment in battles punishable? Is it multing? For example, consider an all legend battle in Noise CTF, RU2. Everyone is using M4 equipment and drugging, but one legend, despite having M4s, chooses to use M0 equipment. Would that person be guilty of violating rules?

If this player was using м0 and has better equipment , like м2 or 3 , in his garage , so this situation can be considered as Sabotage . (but it's always better to watch the player how he is playing , how he is acting and ....)

 

Hello, I would like to know how many  votes are needed for mods to take a look into the battle. 

Question already answered , 25% of all players in the battle

 

Tanki- There is a problem that happens very often to me any my friends who play with me. In CTF mode, when one teammate gets the flag and runs, for some reason, the tank always drops the flag when there is any lag or when passing the middle of the map (especially on the rift map). Is there any way to fix this?

 

Thanks!

Problems and Solutions

 

Can battle mods turn a public battle to a private battle or the opposite?

If yes, when do they do that?

Yes we can make public battle to private battles.

 

1- What do you do when you meet tankers that have a deal with enemy tankers and are trying to give them an advantage (sabotage)?

2- What do you do when you meet tankers that interfere with others' normal gameplay by using cheats and hacks?

3- What is actually Mutl and sabotage? They are really similar to each other and hard to understand them, please explain it briefly. 

 

- Please answer these questions )

1- Player will be kicked from the server.
2- Player will get BLOCK.
3- Mult is just a word used between players , in Tanki we just have Sabotage mean : Any acts or omissions aimed at creating obstructions for the team where the User is a member, including in CTF, TDM and CP modes, fighting against the team of which you are a member (intentional selection of weak equipment, frequent pauses, inactivity or intentional failure to comply with map’s or game mode’s requirements, imitation of issues with internet connection), damaging/destroying an ally’s tank, fighting in the interest of the opponent’s team (conspiracy) , Rules 2.1.5

 

Are we allowed to report ourselves :D

why not ;)

 

If a mult or sabotage stay inactive for 5 min in the game and distract his own team from giving an advantage to the enemy players. then how long does he get banned?  

It depends on the Karma history of this player 

 

I have another question. Sabotaging is against rules. But suppose that I am in a small map long battle say island ctf 3vs3 300 flag. After battling for long time, i realize that our defeat is inevitable. Anything my team do, will only delay inevitable. So i pause the game so that inevitable result is obtained earlier, will that be sabotage?

Every player is allowed to be on Pause for 2 minutes . So staying on pause for more time will be considered as Sabotage . 

 

I had a fairly simple pass word ( I have since changed it) and it appears someone else managed to guees it and has logged on to my account and bought bad M1 turrets like magnum while I was working to save up to and M2. If you have any suggestions on what to do or if there is any way to reverse this please tell me.   Thanks!

                    So, if they had followed my strategy, would that had been considered sabotage?

Why reporting rule 3.2 is ignored when reporting someone who has changed textures? (I think it was 3.2 rule. The one about videos found in youtube) Because if you think about it... People are jeleos or just haters when they report youtuber who has changed textures and you, battle mods, ignore reporting rules and accept report as valid.

Yele requested Battle_Mod_02 to be added in my friends. Whenever i invited him to battle he always came. Now someone else is battle_Mod_02 and this guy refuses to spectate hackers when i ask him to join. He NEVER accepted invitation and i dont belive he always was spotting hackers.
