Mugsy_: The secret is to use my name. Eventually, everyone will and you'll
have to hope I find you while combing through the threads, but
until then you can summon me by name, not unlike Beetlejuice.
I believe GeneralDirection offered gold for the creator of a Mugsy bat signal.

I take note of this suggestion.
No seriously, this is a very reasonable suggestion. I definitely have my favorite camos I'd like to see. I will note this down.

Mugsy_: Hello Gnomefather and everybody!
I play my World of Tanks au naturale. I don't use any mods, not even pony garage skins. I think it is best if I play the stock version that most players experience.
That being said, the thing I like about mods is it offers players the opportunity to contribute to and create new experiences for a community that shares their love of the game.
Anyone who gives their talents and creativity to any community is a wonderful person. You should reconsider updating your mod, it seems to bring a lot of folks happiness, maybe you could get it posted on WoTPro.
Happy holidays everyone!

CatStalker: It's just policy and cultural differences. From what I understand,
it would be considered insulting in RU to reply with the players
name. Even when support takes the time to write out a specific
reply, it will probably have "Dear Player" as the intro.

blee0111, on Dec 20 2012 - 02:15, said: Clan wars map is crowded. We need more maps like the
Russian server. The maps need to be in North and South
America, where most of live. The US clans will fight for
the US, Mexican for Mexico and the Brazilian for
Brazil. The main reason we keep playing is for clan
wars, but the map is so crowded the newer clans have nowhere to go
and break up. Losing players.
Link on message: #3294194

Mugsy_:
This is a complex comment and you bring up many different issues.
The Clan Wars map is populated. But it isn't crowded by comparison to our other servers. The average numbers of clans participating in nightly landing tournaments is much lower. Also, the RU server has exponentially more players and that justifies them needing more map space to battle on.
For the time being, Clan Wars is our only end game content and of course we want to encourage clans to compete and land. But there is an income for owning provinces and that income must be earned by defeating other clans in battle.
That being said, we do have an event planned which will open the North American map. So please keep your eyes on our News announcements.

Mugsy_: Hello TankBusterGirl,
Tiered or point limited Clan Wars maps is a recurring suggestion. I think at its core it is a request for additional game modes and content for clans who are not at, or who do not enjoy, the Tier 10 end game content. I totally understand. Suggestion noted. I'll follow this thread to see what additional ideas come up. Thanks.
