Draschel:  Easy answer, don't. You aren't a trained therapist, psychologist, or well-being checker.  Chances are, if a heavy tank top tier, is calling low tier cowards, in most scenarios, whatever you have to say won't change the imbecile's mind anyway. The being in question, is entirely an imbecile, and it wouldn't matter what was said anyway, in one ear out the other, no absorption. So don't bother, you cannot convince, cannot de-escalate. Just ignore him. You cannot win them all, just try your best and don't be baited into nonsense.  But actual pointers for this particular situation, even if you are a low tier heavy, try not to hang back in secluded areas. Try to be involved. Even if it means using, and hopefully trading, your HP. Most low tier heavy tanks, CAN still penetrate high tier mediums. Let us say you were a VK3601? KV1S? KV85. You still have a reasonable chance to penetrate med tanks like T-44-100, 53 Lis, Pantera. And when you trade your HP, in a lowly tier tank at the bottom, for HP towards a high tier highly mobile med - ITS IS WORTH IT TWOFOLD. THREEFOLD. Even if it means taking damage for your high tiers, to preserve them for longer, or later fights - do it. You taking damage in your inconsequential tier 6, to keep a major tier 8 healthy, MEANS ALOT FOR YOUR TEAM, there is no shame in teamwork. You are contributing, huge. Just ignore the nonsense, hold your breath, concentrate, and contribute. And you will get more exp for it, and your team will greatly benefit .....even if an imbecile doesn't know it is happening.  Don't be je-baited, and do your best, in every situation you are in. Always place yourself in the best possible position, to contribute in best possible ways.
