So... No 0.7.3 this week?

Subject: So... No 0.7.3 this week?
Link on message: #1852529
KrasnayaZvezda, on May 07 2012 - 02:19, said: The fabulous Military Parade Special came out, hurray! However, the
proposed application of 0.7.3 patch, 'early this week', is well in
the range of this special.
So, does this mean that they'd do the time-taking patch anyway regardless of the ongoing special? Or would they say 'Oh, it was just a proposal which was subject to change anyway'?

GeneralDirection: Yes, we will deploy a patch during a special if the special takes
place during the 'work week'. Take that for what you will.

this particular event would have been planned months ago to fall on these dates

make sure there are enough teams applying. The AM challenges
struggle to get close to a 64 team number, so it's reasonable to
expect the skirmishes to have the same problem. If I'm proven wrong
we'll happily raise the cap to 64 the following week.

Or as I like to call it, the "Oh shiz, Diablo 3 is Out in a Week" Special.
Great deals, though. A bit disappointed that the crew skill reset isn't 90% like the russians have had TWICE since 7.2, but I'll get over it while tooling around in my half off T-43 and Tiger P.

GeneralDirection: The RU cluster has only had the discount once to this point. The
other 90% you're thinking of is the crew rename discount.

tankanspank, on May 06 2012 - 14:44, said: Arms gave us no choice in the matter , and then played it off as if

ones who attacked an SSGS team. How does that not make you the one
stabbing SSGS in the back?
I then quoted a post you made on page 5 (which was also removed by a mod) saying how you didn't know kitties was an SSGS team. First of all, you could have looked at the roster of the team you were attacking (as any good commander would do). It's plain as day that many of the PBKAC members are from SSGS. You could have also hopped on TS or in-game messaged any of SSGS's dep comm's to see if we needed help. You instead opted to attack us.
You then asked Daddy Mako to come on our TS and try to smooth things over with us so that we would allow you through our territory to attack SDP with them. Since SSGS likes to be good to their neighbors that are good to us... Surprise! We said no. And here we are, with you whining and complaining, while you're running away from challenges you have put forth.
Now a note to any mod who comes across this... Just edit out a single word if anything in this post offends you (other than truth). There's no need to hide it.

fined only 285 credits. He got fined way, Way, WAY more.
2) If compensation were equal to repair cost, this would open the door to griefing: just drive in front of your teammates when they're aiming, keep ramming them, sit in their way, anything to piss them off enough to start shooting you. They get fined, you get fully reimbursed and you're free to do it again next match. TK'ing should be a negative experience for both perpetrator and victim to ensure nobody is going to take advantage of it.
However, +1 to you for keeping your cool and not returning fire.

about arty had been locked. And then I went to another thread and
it said locked. But then on the main page none of them said locked.
I thought I had been banned without warning or notice.
Luckily I saw this post and figured I needed to play a game to update things. Played a game and it fixed it right away.
For most people this probably won't be a problem. But for returning players who haven't played a recent game, you could be locking them out from posting if they come back, and want to post before they try it out. They might think they've been banned as I did for a minute. As there is no proper explanation for why you can't post, just it saying the entire thread is locked rather than the reply button.

Tanitha: I doubt this was a bug, the changes werent done in a click, they
were done manually to each of the ~50-100 forum sections so it took
me ~30 minutes.
I would guess you logged in while I was 1/2 way in the middle of changing things.
Thanks for the report, I'll keep an eye out for similar issues.

it should be even higher than 20. Maybe 40 or 50?

can ban a spammer very quickly almost always.
The issue is, they can just make another account in 1 second and continue.
At least this way, each spammer needs to play 20 games (5 mins each = about 1.5 hours) for each spam they do.
That should make them fairly easy to control and a thing of the past, hopefully.

Comrade_Zhukov, on May 05 2012 - 02:07, said: This is an excellent idea, preventing people from abusing alts and
posting before actually trying out the game. However, the limit on
the technical support section seems a bit senseless. If people are
having trouble getting the game to run, they often go straight to
the forums instead of contacting support. Preventing them from
posting will probably confuse them further and might turn them
away, even if it is a relatively simple problem.

Thanks for the concern, But its the other way around.
The whole forums has a 20 game requirement, except the New player section and Technical support sections.
So yes the new player and support sections have no requirements on them so the new players can seek help and assistance if needed.
(I'll bold the word "except" in my OP to make is clearer)

Tan.

Tanitha: Hello Tankers.
With the new forum's come some new features, such as the ability to set the number of games required to post into particular forum sections.
As such the forum’s has now been set to a "20 game" requirement to post except for the following sections.
New Player's section
News & Information subsection.
The Chieftain's hatch subsection.
Technical Support & Bug Reporting section.
This system is currently on trial, and maybe adjusted later depending on feedback and results.
We hope it will make the forums a more enjoyable place for our player base, free of spam and alternative accounts.
Feel free to provide feedback within this thread.
Regards
Tan.
