Please be clear about what you're asking.  If no one can understand you, we can't help. Do not post one line rants ("I hate MM!").   Do not come here looking for attention.   Do NOT disrespect those who are trying to offer you valid advice. SHARE your accomplishments, but DO NOT brag about them. Do not feel obligated to reply to every reply in the thread.  We answered your question; if you don't agree, then just move on.  We honestly don't care if you disagree.  If you want to say a special 'thanks', send a PM. PLEASE at least TRY to use simple grammar.  We are not the Grammar Police, but endless sentences, ALL CAPS, and 'thoughts' instead of sentences only distract us from your question.  Honestly, about 95% of WoT players are intelligent and helpful people, but truth be told, since you're too lazy to put a few moments into thinking about what you're asking, your really poor grammar tells us that you don't have much respect for us.  Think about it.   I'm sure that this list is far from complete, but you get the idea.   If you don't, please stay away from our forum.   Tank you!  Tanks a lot!   "Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude"         "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great"                                                                                                                                              - Zig Ziglar

Chairborne, on Nov 13 2014 - 21:51, said: Two: Low tiers are where you should identify and begin understand your basic play style. At this point, go with it and work on it. Don't try to fit your play style into a Tank. Find the Tanks that works for your style of play. This is a difficult concept for most players to understand and leads to the inevitable "Rage " quit. (More on that later)

Subject: Sky cancer having negative gun depression: is this historical?
Link on message: #8117931

Pyr0freak, on Nov 12 2014 - 06:29, said: After being clicked yet again in an end-game arty-sweep scenario, I wondered to myself if this crapcould somehow not be happening. Then I wondered, why the [edited]can arty aim to the ground? When was that EVER useful for artillery in the real world? And now I'm on the forums, asking the historians to confirm / deny the fact that sky cancer can not only click me from across the map, but also click me in close-quarter combat with some ridiculous traverse and gun depression. Since this game is pseudo-historical, maybe we could petition for a change? Arty needs complete close-range weakness as a trade-off for complete long-range domination. I think this is a wonderful idea.

IceFLYER, on Nov 12 2014 - 15:47, said: I'm not liking it really. There is nothing new that I can tell that it offers up... nothing important anyways.   For starters, I don't have access to the Home, Game, Clan Wars, Tournaments, Media, Community tabs anymore (important stuff in those tabs there...)..One now  has to take a few extra steps to access it by going back to the worldoftanks.com site by way of the Games drop down in the upper left and then select World Of Tanks.   Also, when in the new page for the clan, the "Stronghold" link still connects to what would now be the old clan page.   We've also lost the ability to sort our clan members by name, by join date (now called "days in clan") and by rank.  Sometimes it can be handy to be able to sort as we had been able to. Can't seem to find out how to even sort us at all now.   Sometimes the new more icon oriented scheme isn't the best ,nor the most obvious method.  It might look smoother...but that doesn't help if the information isn't presented logically as it seems to have been.


D4RK_F1R3, on Nov 12 2014 - 15:50, said: Likes: Has a nice Win8 metro feel (I don't mind metro so its a plus for me) Cleaner?   Dislikes: It doesn't remember my password, which annoying because I was already logged in on the main page. Takes up way too much vertical space. I am scrolling forever to look through RDDT's roster. For some reason the sorting filters were removed....Why you do this? Feels out of place since the rest of the website doesn't have the same theme.


Eraycer, on Nov 12 2014 - 16:34, said: My things I would like to see. 1, Last time logged in. Per member. 2, messages sent from players looking to join so that I don't have to jump on the forums to find them. Maybe call it an inquiry Tab. 3 Maybe a way to send a mass message to my Clan all at once. Currently it times out. 4 Alliance Tab so that members looking to join can see other clans in your family.   Other than that I have disrespect for new ideas and tools you are trying to give us, but maybe a hey this is what we would like to do what features would work for you might help   Thank you.


Dukebarry, on Nov 12 2014 - 16:51, said: OK this drives me nuts here is the bottom of the old page   This allowed me to link to other relevant WOT pages quickly.   the new    This doesnt allow me to go anywhere except to download the game...how dumb if Im on this page I have the game, about us and media or I can go to WOWP which will never happen. I also cant sort by players or link to them to see there stats etc. This is a case of OHHH its pretty but it is also useless.


Xeroproject, on Nov 12 2014 - 16:56, said: Space efficiency - this page really doesn't have any of that going on at all.  It takes up 4 or more times the vertical space that the old style did and really doesn't offer any benefits over the old by doing that.  Please condense the spacing drastically or offer an option to swap between "condensed" and "expanded" modes.  Although honestly I don't know what benefits at all keeping it huge and overblown gets anybody.  Reduce some font sizes, and spacing to bring it down to near where the old site was.   Column sorting - this is an absolute must.  I know it was mentioned already but I want to emphasize it.  Current sorting sorts by Position, but then doesn't sort by Player Name or Days in Clan within the positions.......not a clue what sort of witchcraft is determining that sort order.   "Days in Clan" - far less useful than the actual join date.  Join Date never changes.  Days in Clan will advance by 1 every day, for everybody in the clan.  I can promise you I will never want to reference this data by "what people have been in the clan for 45-65 days", ever.  I will want to be able to easily reference this data by "who joined in September 2014?"   This is minor, but there really don't seem to have been any functionality upgrades this this change.  The mouse over cogs giving you payout options and such per person don't really add much over the old method of using the check box to select, then picking an action to perform on the bottom.  The position insignia really add nothing to the page.  Some functionality improvements like including Strongholds in the Battle Schedule and such would be great. 


thunder59, on Nov 12 2014 - 17:10, said: Thoughts that come to mind for me:  - What if I have a Clan in WoT, WoP and WoWS (same name) but I don't have 100 tankers that want to play the other 2 games. Now I am limited in the other games to less than 100 members. You can't force people to participate in the other games. You have to come up with a way to allow full membership in each game and not penalize a Clan because they recruit players who aren't interested in the other games. This is the biggest issue I see. all the other functionality can be fixed.
