Tanitha: You mean the subliminal messages?
"Dont TK" "Shoot the red ones" "dont swear" "dont spam the forums" "Ussr tanks aren't better" "arty isnt OP" That are broadcasted every 15 mins in Russian?
You aren't meant to consciously hear them.. But whatever its only beta, I guess their brain-washing system needs tweaking, It should be fixed in the Xmas patch..

Tanitha: Yeah I dont see much difference really, The people that would use the extended chat after game for abuse, would imo be abusing all game anyway.

Tanitha: I usually sit through battles now too, but thats because i have maxed tanks and T10 tanks, so im not grinding. On release time is important so I'll be hopping straight on another tank to squeeze in more exp per hour..

Tanitha: The voice system is only for platoons and companies, so its not random people, you are only chatting to people you select to chat with. If they play up on chat, dont select them in your platoon again. (so its your choice)

Tanitha:

Tanitha: Happened to me too. and the FPS slows down because the cpu does in a effort to try and cool down.
Run some software to check your temps and keep an eye on them, and also what clocking your cpu is doing..
Mine was getting up to 110c in game, and idled at 90c out of game.
My problem was a fan full of dust, and two broken plastic lugs which hold the fan down, So the fan wasn't seating properly either.
A few screws instead of the plastic lugs, and a clean of the fan, now i'm running at 50c usually now instead..
Regards.
Edit, PS yeah as said above, WOT only uses 1 core atm.. It might change later, might not..

Tanitha: You were banned from chat, by another mod, not me.. due to a long line of spam. something similar to
11233323233232333333333333333`````````````~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
You were banned for 1 hour, and you were banned over a hour ago. So you aren't even banned any more as far as my "guessed" timing goes (wasn't watching the clock)
I assumed it was a cat to be honest .. Since you are a regular chatter, and dont normally cause much trouble..
It was a 1 hour warning ban. So i'm not sure what the issue is really. Seems reasonable to me..

Tanitha: Offer a wage, and you will get people who are only in it for the money.
Same coin just a different side.
IMO you will get better mods out of people who want to mod because they want to help, want to improve the game, love the game, play a lot and have played a lot. Rather than someone whos just doing it as a job, who doesn't really care about anything but the pay packet..
As for people applying for the status, then they would be delusional, and wouldn't end up modding for long.

Tanitha: Hi, light tanks used to do well in high battles,
They were fast, hard to hit, and they could scout, infiltrate and kill arty, kill tanks their level, outrun the bigger tanks, etc..
Lots of fun, quick games, decent pay..
But then they fixed a bug, and removed warping, so now light tanks doing 50+kph are reasonably easy to hit with a sniping tank.
So they dont last long any more..
So yeah i'm sure its not easy atm, there is talks of buffing light/medium tanks, and they tweak the balance system slightly every so often. So they will work on the known issue.
Regards.

Tanitha: And the best post on the topic is here.. this is pretty much the latest info.
http://forum.worldof...r-1-global-map/

Tanitha: Remove the 88 from the link..
http://game.worldoft...03446-strellok/
**Edit, I changed the link, and I changed your name in the forums.
**Edit, as for offending names, you are welcome to email support@worldoftanks.com to lodge a complaint.
I think most of the bad ones still left are banned accounts through and not in use.

Tanitha: At the moment there is more vacancies for euro server mods than usa server mods. So yes.

Tanitha: Free exp, isnt assigned to any one tank, you can use that exp to upgrade any tank.

Tanitha: Merged the posts.

Tanitha: Ive seen it, Im not sure where, or if its still there though. and its not enforced as far as I know. Id guess its there as a safeguard.

Tanitha: This..
Edited out player names,
Thread locked and dumped..
Regards.

Tanitha: Sounds impressive. : ) Sounds like you will fit in perfectly.

Tanitha: Its much cheaper to save for 17 days and buy a month if you can : )

Tanitha: Its usually a AA setting, anti aliasing. So change the setting in game.
And then if needed check your graphics card control panel which can have a setting of, use these settings and overrule the settings in game. Etc..
There is a tech section. moving your post.
And pming you the reply in case you cant find it..

Tanitha: The servers are getting upgraded to handle 60k people. I would guess they aren't doing that to have 3k players online on each server.
I would guess they have lots of advertising and promotions scheduled to pull in lots of new players.
Advertising that they have delayed until their servers could handle the numbers..
All the above is just pure guesswork. But it makes sense to me..

Tanitha: Well its beta, now might be a good time to make a suggestion. : )

Tanitha: I helped do up the structure for the new (split) forums i added a section for the french tanks.
So there should be a section similar to the other nations on the new forums.

Tanitha: There's nothing in this thread except racist jokes on the french.
Loking / Dumping

LiannaSilverwind: Considering current vague ruleset nearly everything is possible. Rules are important in every championship and what is not precisely described in the rules, definitely will be used against you. That's part of professional competitive sport, gaming including.
When I have read them for the first time I made a topic on our team forum about all the possibilities of metagaming I can imagine, so that we may be ready and prepared. Checking League discussions I already see at least half of these metagaming possibilities already being present. That's the price of following vague rulesets.
There were teams who changed their setup after seeing my team's setup. We have no problems with that. That's part of the current ruleset, sadly enough.

Tanitha: Servers up, IF the login server is down just run the wot.exe and bypass it.
You only need to run the launcher if you need a update.
If that dont work, well.. : ) harder problems.

Tanitha: Having two accounts for two separate servers, is possible, but they are separate accounts on separate servers.
The same as you can have a account on the Russian and china servers as well if you like. They are all separate games though.
Overlord mentioned that there probably will be a account transfer system put in place some time after release. Id guess that would be a paid system (it is in other games), and I personally dont like relying on things that might or might not happen in time for you.
WOT might end up linking the Euro/USA/Russian servers for a world wide clan wars system. But that's probably that far away (if it happens) that its not worth discussing at this time Imo.
A permanent move to Europe? when? Starting on the euro server might be a safe option, You only have a bit of extra lag until you move and can get settled in a euro clan for clan wars etc. Depends when you are moving, depends how long you are there for.
Good luck with the planning, You have 2 more weeks or so to gather info : )
Regards.

Tanitha: No limits planned atm, but its still in production, and lots of land, but again lots depends on how many clans there ends up being etc..

Tanitha: This is just the tip of the iceberg so much more is planned. The game wont be released until its ready.
You wont be able to keep these tanks, there will be a wipe before release. If you dont want to play a beta, then wait for the release.
If you do want to play a beta, then you must first understand what a beta is and what it means. Its a unfinished game open for testing and it will be wiped before release.
Thread locked.

Tanitha: Nope the ban reason was...
"There is no WOT Hacks or cheats just keylogers and people that promote them."
You did not just mention cheats in a concerned way, You spammed a page full of "the cheat can do these 20 things", into the chat, You also called a player a jerk, and you also promoted the use of cheats/hacks encouraging people to use them. (Even though none exist)
The logs are recorded, feel free to lodge a appeal to support like it is stated you should do in the rules...

Tanitha: When I originally banned you, I only seen the last half of what you wrote, after saving the logs and seeing your full posting, I was going to increase your ban from 3 -> 7 days just as the server went down. Servers back up again now so I'll do that now..
Chat ban increased to 7 days.
Forum Read Only ban placed for 7 days for disputing mod decisions in the forums/offtopic posting.
Upped to 14 days after abusive PMs.
Thread closed and dumped.

LiannaSilverwind: Red Tide confirms date 9th December 2010, 20:00 GMT / 21:00 CET / 23:00 Moscow Time.

Tanitha: Its not in game there either.. Its coming eventually..
Russian version is 06.1.5
EU/US version is 06.1.5
http://game.worldoftanks.ru/update
+ discussion on the russian version is limited to the russian forum. So dont post about it in here again please.
Thread locked.

Tanitha: I'll raise your 5000 gold bid and outbid you with a ...
New patch, 2 new maps, a new EU server, and two server upgrades to increase the server capacity to 60k each.

Tanitha: So you just tried to post to the section, without reading the rules for the section..
Read the rules please, all you need to know is in there.
http://forum.worldof...opers-sections/
Locked.

Tanitha: It might be a rare issue with no known fix. IE a few people out of the playerbase.
http://forum.worldof...6972-game-chat/
I'll merge your thread there.
And if you can post more info, it might help someone ID your problem.

Tanitha: I think the T8 mediums were a close match up for T8 heavies, before warping was fixed. Then the medium lost a lot of their advantage of speed because even doing 50 they were fairly easy to snipe without warping.
This issue has already been addressed and tweaked in the upcoming patch, So no need to have a discussion on something that's already been dealt with.
The thread was already locked. So I'll lock it back up again now you have been replied to and given a reason for the initial lock..

Tanitha: Is there a tip saying dont give passwords out to wot support? I think support need to be given passwords sometimes to fix things, they can probably access passwords too.
I was helping to fix a login problem yesterday, and a players forum password was needed to locate and work on the problem.
Etc Etc..

Tanitha: I totally agree with everything you wrote. But there's always a but... So.. BUT...
People are often "chat banned" for being annoying spammers. Leaving them several buttons to continue to spam with kind of defeats the purpose of the ban.
Imagine banned players who cant type, spamming the macro buttons or pinging the map? There is already enough people that do that, and chat banning them stops them from doing it.
Also there is already many threads on this topic, which were answered the same as I've answered this one.
Im pretty sure your suggestions will never happen, because of the spamming problems I've outlined above..
For now, I'll move your post to general discussion. If I find the other posts about this topic, I'll merge the posts later.
Regards.

Tanitha: My version of what happened to the soft-wipe / clanwars..
I know a lot of you guys/gals are a bit annoyed that their is no soft-wipe in the short future. I also planned for it, I stopped grinding new tanks and instead played elite tanks knowing that the EXP on the elite tank would convert to free exp after a soft-wipe, So i have about 300k exp sitting in elite tanks now. Whatever, it happened, Maybe this is what I get for trying to take the easy way out... But the below is where the confusion came into things IMO.
For ages, we were always told, Full wipe on release, Softwipe will happen if its needed to be done, when its needed to be done..
A lot of players weren't happy with the "no date" comment above. So it was changed to...
The softwipe should be when the EU servers are released, the servers split, clan wars enters testing, new patch is applied,, IE before Xmas..
Now.. Two of those 5 things were delayed. Clanwars testing and the wipe..
Now we are just getting the new patch, new servers, a server split, and servers upgraded to handle 60k players each.
Either way, its hard for dev's to win, "Softwipe will happen if its needed to be done, when its needed to be done" wasn't good enough and got a lot of complaints, A expected date that's now changed, again isn't good enough and gets a lot of complaints, So its really hard to win either way.
IMO the reason clan war's is delayed is because unlike the majority of games, Wargaming.net aren't taking content out of the game during beta and scheduling it for "will come some time after release" like most other game companies do. In fact Wargaming.net keep doing the opposite, and adding more and more and more that they are trying to get out before release.. Dates are getting put back not because there is problems but because they keep adding more content in, trying to make sure the game is fantastic by release. With clanwars there was only originally a Europe map. With battles schedules for the prime time of the country you attack. IE all battles in Europe prime time. This is pretty useless to the USA players who aren't available at this time. So the USA maps that were scheduled for "after release" are now being coded up with the aim of adding them in before testing commences. So the delay on clan wars, is because they are making the system twice as big, and twice as good, instead of just rushing the game out of the door with a Europe only map..
Same with nations. At one stage there was only USSR and German tanks, + usa tanks coming. Now we have those three, and there's MORE coming, French tanks are now in planning and there is discussion of other nations in this post.. Link
I understand the misfeelings about the no softwipe yet. But IMO its all for the greater good, they are building up a huge game that will be fantastic on release. What you see now its only the tip of the iceberg.. Please be patient while they finish the project. They aren't removing content to rush it out, they keep adding more and more instead..

Tanitha: Yep the error section is more for out of game problems.
Tech issues and bugs are more for in game bugs..
So you are in the right section.
The forum is getting overhauled atm, and the sections will be made more clear then..
Regards

Tanitha: I keep this thread up to date, every time there is any new info.
So the above 6 links should all be working and containing 1000's of keys.

Tanitha: You get to work with me. Seriously I dont know what more you could want..

Tanitha: Wow guys/gals. Thanks for the thanks/support..
But yeah.. There is no need for tons of threads on the same few topics. I'll allow the occasional new post on a existing topic, if its a well written post that brings in some good new ideas, and if its able to stay on topic.. Otherwise there is masses of existing threads for players to post into without making yet another..
And Re: this thread..
Complaints on me, or other mods, or mods in general are to goto support, and not be posted into the general forums.

Tanitha: Thread locked/dumped.
