Hi, if you knew me then...

Hi, honestly I don't know if one is allowed to create such a topic but I'll do it anyway, It's been a while, I started playing Tanki from 2014 and played till like 2016?? I remember I used to be extremely active on the forum as well, and I am sure I was once the most active person on the forum. It really was/is a fun place. I have made this topic for strictly one purpose only, and that is if we were friends or if we even somewhat knew each other then I would really appreciate if you could message me here? Or reply I guess... I won't start playing Tanki or using the forums again, but would love to share my contact details (social media etc) with each other, if we knew each other. It's simply because of nostalgia and how tanki and the forums was a place where I connected with several friends through my teen years. I don't think it's allowed for me to share my contact details over here so if any old friend of mine would wish to know, you can message me. I honestly don't even know if they will see this or if they still use the forum/play tanki anymore, but I did see Adriel.Rb's name before creating this topic so atleast one is still alive! 

It's pretty intriguing when I realise that I am here creating a topic since mohammad95, a tanki youtuber I must've subscribed to years ago started a live video on youtube. I did not remember who he was so i clicked on his profile and realised that wow, this is that guy. All of a sudden I watch like 2-3 videos of Claudio, oufa, 123egypt123, and then I come here. Life works in funny ways and I am thankful I was once part of an amazing community, and I hope everyone is having an amazing time right now too. 

Ps - To all those forum mods/admins who rejected me trying to sign up for a forum mod 5-6 years ago, thank you... Now my older self realises that my 13 year old past self might have made a mess :) 

Also, I did say that I made this topic for strictly one purpose only, but if you wish to, we can talk about different things too. For example, what all has changed in your life from 5 years ago till now? I guess I have said way too much now, goodbye!

Welcome back.

The forum community has changed drastically since you left. Be weary of what you post in the game discussion, news, and I&S sections especially about game mechanics even if its in a respectful manner. There are people who'll straight away insult or provoke you if they don't like your post. There's no point in civil discussing with them either, they'll just retaliate by getting their friends to help them bully you into submission.

 

Best thing to do is to not continue the discussion. And putting them on ignore list doesn't do much, they can still react and reply to your post as well as comment on your topic.

 

That's why any group I'm in is the only place where I'll post my opinions.

I'm talking about this forum community. It didn't used to be this way. Well unless the person making the arguments started it first. But that was a rare case.

 

I used to have alot of respect for the community. I could post whatever was on my mind and we would have a nice civil discussion about it. Even in those sections. And I would learn more after than before.

 

Now I can't even trust the community to hear my opinions without bashing me for it in those sections. Its just a constant arguefest. I feel like I lose brain cells after the ordeals. So I just post my opinions in whatever groups I'm in.
