the great thing about this game, and games in general, is theres no one set way to play. Everyone finds motivation in different areas, whether it be getting the most points, taking the biggest raids, or earning the best awards. Nobody can claim one is better than the other for anyone except themselves, and their opinion shouldnt be forced onto anyone else unless you enjoy seeing activity decrease in the process.

However, there are certain things which arent allowed, circumventing the ip restriction and de ranking to the lowest possible rank and banking points off of the highest possible rank, which is also controlled by yourself, is one of them.

Doesn't this just illustrate that there are still flaws in the system that need to be worked out?> I read through this whole thread and honestly what i get from it is that MZ has found, or resurrected an area that raises a lot of negative feedback from the community. To me this is great, it gets conversation going on whether it is a systemic issue that SW may need to consider for future development or if it is purely an ettiqutte rule that has been established by the community in which perhaps some thought should go into including literature on game play. It is included in tournies that freekills are not allowed, maybe something should be added to regular gameplay or maybe not. The uniqueness of a persons gameplay is what keeps it exciting to play, if we all played the same, I know for me I would get bored as hell.

I do not play this game a whole lot, however, we do need to, as the community for tankpit, support all aspects of gameplay and offer guidance and suggestions to those whom may not be familiar with it, but also except that not everyone has to follow any set of playing rules.

it isnt a discussion. the lowest thing a person can do in a main map is shoot a tank that doesnt shoot back, there is nothing worse you can do in a main map.

its probably lower than anything you can do in a tournament also since cups arent really valuable at all after you get the first one on your main tank

making it the worst thing you could do in this game pretty much lmao

if he doesnt get punished for this i might legit delete my tank

I see Frinzee has made a tank, and also Juggernaut... which were the same tanks that did this same exact thing in utanks....

TP = utanks 3.0 ? When can we expect the shut down?

lol I guess yeah. Alpha, Beta, <rage takedown> Beta 2.0. So it would make TP "utanks 4.0"
