Let's Discuss The Forum!

Only just found this out; remember the https://en.tankiforum.com/discover trick? Well I found out that if you add a slash and a random number from 1 to 20 to the link, you will get different streams. Quite convenient actually :)

For one, I've seen posts where names of players were edited out because of mods due to "sensitive information" or whatever lame excuse it is. And yet there's a legal feature where we can "mention" a players name. So which is it? Are we allowed to mention other players names or not?

 

I think if you are saying like @someone is so troll, plz report him mods! The name would be edited out. Because it carries some information idk what will happen. However like if you say @someone's ideas are always nice, then it's no problem.

It's a bug in a way that Beginners or Forumers having the "General" status rather than Advanced are not able to post in that topic.

@Issimo seems like you weren't the first one with the nickname issimo :o

Check out this forum account!

@r_Issimo2

He hadn't been online for a long time so there is the r_2 in his nick 

 

Also from his profile, @Issimo haven't been online since November 2019. Care to explain what is going on, @Maf?

Well, r_Issimo2 is an automatically renamed account. It was originally called Issimo, but then the user became inactive and after a while the name freed up for someone else to take it. When that happens, the original account gets renamed to r_NAME, and r_NAME1 if r_NAME is taken. But because both r_Issimo and r_Issimo1 were also taken, the acc was renamed to r_Issimo2.

The second account that hasn't logged in since 2019 became inactive because it got duplicated into a new account at that time. Can be fixed with a simple merge (which I can do).

This I know.

But when I try to ping @Issimo only one user shows up. And when I searched 'issimo' on the forum, I found a mod pinged him. But pressing the ping, it still says 2019. What's going on?

Has Issimo actually shown up since 2019? Maybe he changed the tanki acc name and it created a new forum account.

If so, then the ping the mod used would have leaded me to his forum account, matter his own nickname changed or not.

[Incorp 2,084]

@Maf see this post:

 

See the mod pinged issimo, and it was in 2021. That meant issimo was online in 2021 December atleast. However pressing the ping, it lead me to an account called issimo, and it said last time issimo  had been online was 2019.

Seriously I'm surprised you don't remember issimo posting in 2021

[Incorp 2,084]

@Maf this is weird.

 

As you can see, issimo made a topic in December 2021. Pressing on his name I was led to his forum account, which gave very different information to the other account. However when I try to ping him only one account pops up:

@Issimo

Like so:

The ping I wrote above leads me to the issimo shown in the picture. See for yourself

Dope.

 

Disappointing, I always pronounced the current Lssimo as issimo. I was gonna use lowercase l and create lssimo. Great work sherlock Maf!

 

Boy this admin is smart

[lssimo 1,559]

Half a page, thanks )

I think I lost the password for my email and couldn't change my Tanki account password, so I decided to wait and then create a new account with the same nickname.

I created Lssimo to prevent a troll or a copycat or a fan. I'm kidding I don't have fans.

You know this forum has some really weird and absurd rules.

The most pro-Russian forum I’ve ever used - not surprising since the game is Russian - but still.

[Spektrix 440]

Ig most of you already know this but for those who don't here is how to look cool in the forum:

 

[Incorp 2,084]

I just discovered that this actually worked. A fun way to place an emoji in your post: I'm gonna use the emoji :ph34r: as an example. You type out : p h 3 4 r : without the spaces. Then after sending your post they will turn into the emoji! 

I discovered this trick a long time ago browsing through old newspaper and AWS articles, but I thought it no longer works cuz many of them weren't turned into emojis. In fact that was how I memorised ph34r; @Person_Random uses the emoji a lot and I guess it got  stuck into my head
