Legends creativity in renaming themselves


 Share

Recommended Posts

But "Avoid", no offense, is a dumb and meaningless nickname. After reading this post, I have lost some faith in humanity. Are people really this... weird with the uses of their money and nickname changes?

It is not meaningless. It is a verb just like rush, camp, attack, defend, kill, capture, destroy, annihilate, elliminate etc. I think it is cool to use verb as a nickname.

Imo, there's no class in those nicknames and every Legend does something like this and it unoriginal. But, then again, pencil isn't a verb and I don't know what to say about that one.

German bomber Do 17 was called 'Flying Pencil' because of its funny shape.

I prefer short nicknames so yeah I'm willing to spend money for simple nickname which I prefer, not all people are same and every people will have different opinions about nicknames but most people I know prefer short one word nicknames.

Just go to the ratings page, type in these extremely professional words and discover that 70-80% of them are railers.
I took a cooking recipe for chicken as inspiration.
 
The nicknames, the paints, trickshots, the attitude.. It's all part of In that XP format... This toxic ecosystem full of rage; induced by bragging. The place where being mean is considered cool and professional. I am glad they have their own stupid format so I can mind my own casual gameplay.

Oh come on, isn't it better than...

 

 

And then you have the console universe, with my dude running around with the CrazyChicken3000 name tag. I think the one-word movement just... happened in Tanki Online. One guy names himself to a cool name, and everybody else follows.

the first one is awesome :lol: and rhe second dude is a legend

Watch this:

6 million usd for virtual planet Calipso in A GAME, where they have generally 5000 people online. Loosing a faith to humanity about that statement is just plain dumb, 8usd is basically a meal in Mcdonalds. But I guess with a age comes the feel of ''enjoyment'' when it comes to different pleasures. Even been to Vegas? I don't think I ever game back from Vegas with lesser than 20k spent. You might think it's dumb, but most people call it entertainment and just having fun. Collecting every cent and saving it is IMO just stupid way of life.

 

I assume you like cheap shots? Which obviously you do since you ''lost hope for humanity'' because of my post, sure, I do online marketing for living, I should be decent with this. So you call yourself sensei_tanker. Why would one call himself _tanker, daa, it's obvious, it's a freaking tank game, tanki online - there is literally tank inside the game name. I mean check your browser bar, there is written tankionline.com. It's like buying a Ford and wrapping a big sentence on your car ''This is a Ford''.

 

Conclusion, don't judge people or their names or their behaviour, being weird and unique makes people different and interesting.

did someone say Ford?

TBH if I had the balls to spend 18$ on this game I would, maybe not this account because people seem to like my nickname. But on another one.

 

Just met @Why in a battle the other day. He never said anything....but that dude is a legend .....literally.....

 

*_* his tank was maxed out.......

 

but yeah, I find one word names dope.


People worry too much about others and how they spent their money - Mostly these are grown up people playing this game and surely have a full time job for them to buy name change for $8 which you can earn that in an hour? 

But I'm cheap x_x

Devs should add Wasp/Hornet + Firebird/Freeze format (XF/BF). It could be really funny to play.

 

Powerleveling? No, everyone wants crystals, not xp...

I agree with your first point.

 

I disagree with your second point. I don't need any more crystals, just get me to Legend asap. Power leveling is only a problem at extremely low ranks, at high ranks it's not a problem.

The majority of tankers, especially XP-BP players, are egotistical, prideful, and are deprived of any semblance of sportsmanship. They'll  find whatever reason to "stand out" or "look cool" (hence the pretentious and oversimplistic nicknames.) One look at the XP/BP/Other Chat and I guarantee you'll find something like "Win" or "Game" or something along those lines.

 

If you outplay them, they'll oftentimes demand for rematch after rematch until they win. If they keep losing, they'll sometimes resort to harassing you in chat, accuse you of cheating, and even defame you.  

 

This is why I absolutely refuse to participate in Tanki's XP scene. I don't want to be exposed to the full force of toxicity the community has to offer. I already have enough from MM battles.

 

I know, "Not all Players hhhh", but I've seen enough cases to warrant such an opinion.

The only XP player who I know is nice is @Rocket_Raccoon_XXX. Other than that, they're just a bunch of ******ed idiots who think using a certain combo magically makes you skilled.

I hate the Mr. (nickname) and Mrs. (nickname) trend a lot. I see those many times in parkour battles and also in some matchmaking battles.

 

Your names are not creative, they're just a lame excuse to get attention by making people wonder what's up with them, and everyone knows you're not married you dimwits.

Well this guy decided to hit pause in the middle of the match so I went like:

Stereotype confirmed.

 

Why is 1v1 always have to be about XP/BP only? Why not just "equip your best hull and turret" in a small map chosen by MM? XPers will always have advantage over the non-XPer in an all-XP rules match, but just once I'd like to see an XPer vs any combo in a regular battle setting.

I don't want to change my name. I like Kaisdf, it's easy to type, it's memorable, it has a bit of a story behind it.

 

I went slightly more meme-y on my alt, @IAmTheOneAndOnly, which has Smoky/Wasp M1, fully MUed. But of course it still looks like M1. So I have great fun in MM battles when teammates say "ugh noob team", and I can reply with, "I'm four ranks lower than you, I have M1s, and I'm doing better than you, so hush, nub"

 

Tru story.
