I Hate World Of Tanks Updated March 9th 2026

Narcissist stalker Vladamyr blocks and rams my tank while I struggle to defend him. He had bottom score. Player has been on my black list before; may have also given bad reviews on my YouTube channel. This player names himself many different names all with the word Vlad in it. He threatened me many time back when you could not block your name or chat. I  looked him after he gave negative reviews for many of my YouTube videos and made me turn off all comments. I was able to look him up by his WOT name back then. It was all over the internet. I think he is a Russian who lives in Canada and was a want to be actor. If this is the same guy I think I have a YouTube video of him killing my tank; back when you could do that in WOT. He is a definite internet stalker. I feel sorry for anyone that would give him the time of day because he will take it and run with it way to far. I never acknowledged him once. Even while he kept ramming during this battle. I had chat and contacts off as always. Thank you WOT for all your fail safe options in this game with the most negative people on earth playing it. That includes some of the WOT employees. I blame it on the presence of nazi Tanks. Vlad is another name for Dracula; Dracula is another name for Satan. I thought he was kidding at first but this guy was willing to scarifies the battle for his immature behavior.

I Hate World Of Tanks Updated February 13th 2026

This game has proven to be anti-American time and time again. If you do not believe me put the patriotic camo on that is now available to all players and not just veterans and there familys like it was for years. Put that camo on and see if your team does not lose most all of your battles.

Lately WOT has been celebrating the Chinese New Year. I never play their stupid side games. I am there to battle in random mode only; even though I know it is not random at all and manipulated constantly by this rip off game. I am shock EULA has not put them out of business for cheating and coercing people out of hard earned money. All I have seen by most websites is people boycotting spending money on WOT so I have no idea how they get there money. I have suspected they could be getting money from communist countries to turn America against itself. If you do not embrace other countries that are in the world like China so you can not earn prizes; the Chinese New Year celebration is a good example; as it is a requirment for WOT. In other words if you do not ignore American and everything it stands for; against most of the worlds governments, you can not play WOT whole heartedly or win prizes that can make you a better player.

 The above photo is what your WOT garage looks like right now for one month. If you do not embrace other countries that are in the world like China you can not earn prizes; the Chinese New Year celebration is a good example. In other words if you do not ignore American and everything it stands for; against most of the worlds governments, you can not play WOT whole heartedly or win prizes that can make you a better player.

It is as if WOT is saying; embrace communism, or your team and you will lose at this game.

Come on lets get real. Do you think there is a large population of Chinese people that play this game?

Click HERE to read about the above article from February 12, 2026.
Look at the prizes you can win if you join the Chinese part of the game of World of Tanks. I, as I always do; refuse to play any part of the game except the random battle part of the game. The more random the better; even though I suspect the randomness is not random at all.

These images are a great example of how this game is manipulated.:



AI says.: According to a post on Radman's Art 2nd Home blog, a former World of Tanks player expresses significant frustration with the game's current state, citing issues such as pay-to-win mechanics, declining map quality, and aggressive monetization tactics.

Lately I have been losing my internet connection by WOT. I think they are using the trollware virus they gave me to do this. I lose internet connection at exactly the moment to make me lose the most. See the only one I got from them below. (I think they are on to me by limiting the amount of screenshots I can get like this).:



I Hate World Of Tanks Updated January 25th 2026

I hardly have time to play WOT since I am working on my art so much these days; but this past weekend has been the worst since the Christmas season. I will just let the following images tell the story. There is no way you can look at these screenshots and tell me this game is not totally unfair. How can the entire enemy team not lose one tank and the entire challenging team have every tank die; if this is a fair game?

I was just thinking; do you think the communist pay for this game?  It is clearly anti-American as explained on this web page many times.:

This is from yesterday. 













I Hate World Of Tanks Updated December 19th 2025

Holidays are always the worst time to play WOT especially since I suspect they are the most anti-American game on the internet.

Thanks for the worst Christmas ever WOT. I can just imagine they will be giving away a Nazi tank next year for the Christmas present. You would think the holidays would be a good time on WOT; but it is always the worst. For the past week and more this has been the worst game play I have ever seen. Battle after battle of what I suspect of straight up cheating. I remember a battle yesterday or the day before when from the start of the battle I could barely move without being destroyed.

I just uploaded this WOT replay that features a battle that starts with a light tank one shot shooting my teams tank from clear across the other side of the map and destroying it with one shot. Only a arty could do this in the first seconds of the game; if that. This battle ends with the red team having only one team member destroyed and the entire green team destroyed.

Notice how I lost so much; yet my tank does better than ever.



I Hate World Of Tanks Updated December 12th 2025

I just got done playin17 straight battles in WOT with only 3 wins and I am so angry. The only thing that will calm me down is to update this page. I will just let the images do the talking.:








Notice that even though I lost over 2/3's of the battles; my tanks show they have never done better.

I Hate World Of Tanks Updated November 30th 2025

This has been one of the worst weekends; for most all of my battles ending in defeat. Unreal! I think it is because Thanksgiving is a American Holiday. It has not been this bad since the last big update they made. 

It is not my fault when my team of 15 players loses a battle. ESPECIALLY WHEN I ONLY USE MEDIUM TANKS! It is just the epidemy of the word unfair. 

I am being put on the losing team on purpose and that has got to be against *EULA!

I seriously wonder if most of the players of WOT on the North American server; are not from our North America.

*EULA is.:

An EULA (End-User License Agreement) is a legal contract between a user and a game developer that sets the rules for using the game. Key rules often include restrictions on reverse engineering, modifying the game, cheating, and commercial use of the game's content. EULAs also cover intellectual property rights, acceptable behavior within the game, and can allow the developer to terminate the license or modify virtual items. 

What an EULA covers

Scope and restrictions: The EULA defines what you can and cannot do with the game, such as whether you can copy, modify, or share it.

Intellectual property: It protects the developer's intellectual property (IP) by prohibiting unauthorized reproduction, distribution, or modification of the game's content.

Behavioral rules: Many EULAs include rules against harmful or illegal conduct, such as harassment, posting offensive content, and cheating.

Commercial use: You are typically prohibited from selling, renting, or leasing the game or its in-game assets for commercial gain.

User-generated content (UGC): The EULA will often specify how you can use, share, and own content you create within the game.

Virtual items and accounts: Developers may have the right to modify or remove virtual currency or items, and they can terminate your account for violating the EULA. 

Common prohibitions in game EULAs

Cheating and hacking: You are prohibited from using bots, hacks, or other unauthorized programs.

Reverse engineering: You cannot decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works from the game's code, except for specific user-generated content features.

Unauthorized distribution: You cannot sell, lease, license, or distribute the game or its assets without permission.

Content violations: You must not create or transmit content that is illegal, harmful, harassing, or obscene.

Account sharing: You are typically not allowed to share your account information or use another person's account. 

Important considerations

Age restrictions: EULAs often have age requirements for account creation and use, with parents or guardians potentially agreeing to the terms on behalf of their children.

Termination: Developers can often terminate the EULA and your access to the game if you violate the rules.

Disclaimers: EULAs may contain clauses that limit the developer's liability for certain issues. 

I Hate World Of Tanks Updated November 29th 2025

You see it is a American holiday this weekend. That is why American players of WOT must suffer defeats. This has been one of the worst weekends I remember with this unholy, evil game. Congratulations WOT; the anti-Americans that control this anti- American game will surely reap what they have sewn. 

Also everything about this game seems manipulated sometimes. I find myself saying over and over again; this or that can not be possible. Like why didn't my tank fire when I clicked the mouse and so on and so on. 

I just took these screen shots. 4 wins out of 18 Battles! It has been like this since November 26th 2025.:



I Hate World Of Tanks Updated November 27th 2025

I just think it is bazar that every time I put my patriotic camo on my tank I lose the battle; most of the time. This game is supposed to be on a American server yet I think there are very few actual Americans playing it. Also as of recently I have examined that players abandon my position as the battle starts when I have the patriotic camo on. I only use the camo on my one heavy tank for about 4 months now. I go the heavy way in the battle and everyone else goes the lite and medium way. The opposing red team becomes focused on taking my tank out also. It is as if when I use my patriotic cam the my team and the red team becomes against me.

The patriotic camo has been for veterans and their family only for many years now. I actually used https://www.id.me/government just to get that camo. This past Veterans Day they made that camo available to all players by giving it to them all. That of course; does not make me angry. What makes me angry is that I have yet to see anyone use the camo. Is the American server only inhabited by foreigners that hate America? 

As you can read below there are controversy's about WOT that stay hidden from the internet and do not come out till now. I also read their Wargaming Wikipedia page and noticed something new from the year 2021 that I have never read before. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wargaming_(company) I check for this all the time so I know this is new, I could be wrong. All I can think is they scrub the internet of negative things against them. I suspect there many things we do not know about them that they are somehow able to hide. Time will tell.


I Hate World Of Tanks Updated November 26th 2025






I do not care why WOT has problems. To me it is a sign of what they sew. Why when I wear the USA colors that all the player have now I lose every battle? They all hate America that play this game!

Russia adds Ukrainian company behind S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video game series to its list of “undesirable organizations”

The Insider

18 November 2025 18:15

In June, a Russian court labeled Wargaming founder Viktor Kisly and Lesta Games head Malik Khatazhev as members of “extremist” organizations. Under the ruling, all shares in the charter capital of St. Petersburg-based Lesta Games were to be confiscated by the state.

Wargaming is best known for its military-themed online games World of Tanks, World of Warships, and World of Warplanes. The company relocated its headquarters from Minsk, Belarus, to Nicosia, Cyprus, in 2011.

Lesta Games operates the Russian versions of Wargaming’s international titles, and the two companies were legally separated in order to shield one another from potential prosecution. After the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Wargaming ended its operations in Russia and transferred the business to Lesta Games, which at the time insisted its projects were apolitical.

In October 2023, Wargaming launched a charity fundraiser to support Ukraine, donating over $1 million raised through the sale of in-game bundles to purchase ambulances, while Lesta Games distanced itself from the campaign.

The charges were based on an analysis of the companies’ publications, including materials on World of Tanks related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, articles about how Wargaming’s team was coping with the war, and the October 2023 charity project featuring Ukrainian content to raise money for medical evacuation vehicles.

The past two days have been the most fixed games I have been in for a while. Here are some screnshots since my last update. I lost 20 yesterday and won 3.:






Check out that high score. It is not for lack of skill my team loses it is because I think this game hates Americans.














See that metal? That means I destroyed 100 top of the line Rusian Tanks.



I did just as bad with this tank because I used this camo. Every time I use the red white and blue camo I get into a loosing streak. Coincidence? I think not.


Updated October 10th 2025

This proves that this game hates American. Watch as the players suddenly make all the wrong moves; I think because I am wearing the patriotic camo.

Download replay here.





Updated October 9th 2025

This is the most anti-American game; I know, ever. I got a new tank with red white and blue camo and low and behold I go immediately to a non stop losing streak. Every team I am in goes the wrong way and practically hands the battle over to the enemy team.

Updated October 5th 2025

I wear this camo my team loses with this tank!. Every time wear my patriotic camo I lose that battle for one month now! Check my states on this this tank for the past month:

If you check my stats on this tank for the past month you will see my team has lost almost every battle with it in this camo. I have worn this camo on this tank for one month now.

What a terrible awful weekend it has been! Don't blame me WOT; blame yourself and what ever this occasional adnominally is. Maybe it is not a big deal now; yet wait until the day you go bankrupt; then you will regret not seeing this as a major problem. Not just because of this tank and it's camo. It is because of this weekend and weekends like it in the history of this game. Not fair and wrong.

Updated October 4th 2025

I cannot take it anymore World of Tanks has proven itself a useless fixed game once again. No matter how many times I see this game driven by manipulation; seemingly unseen by the legitimate gaming community; it still amazes me that we can all be so oblivious. Here we go again.

MY TEAM LOST 24 BATTLES TODAY! IT GOT SO MONOTONOUS, YET SO BIZARRELY WRONG; I HAD TO POST THIS, AFTER 3 DAY IN A ROW OF THIS CORUPTION!

Updated October 3rd 2025

This day was a exact replay of the day before except I did good in the early morning. You should have seen me though I gave every loosing battle my best; at one point I killed 3 tanks in a row in about 10 seconds. I did what I usually do and gave every battle a thumbs down that I lost in the loosing streak. I resisted the urge to publish this page; although I did publish on the 2nd for about 2 hours. I took down my WOT nice page too; maybe for a long time. Oh; again like yesterday, I used up almost all of my complaints and most for chat violations. I always have chat off but they do this thing where they call for help over and over and point out my location over and over. Forgive me if I do not want to die in a game we are loosing terrible to begin; with at least with out trying to kill those last few tanks. I can kill, before we lose. You see why I hate and love this game?

Updated October 2nd 2025

What can I tell this is one of the worst mornings playing this game in months. I got 19 loses with 4 wins. All barely wins. My team seemed like they never played the game at all. Every tank went the wrong way. The 2nd to last battle I played; I reported almost every player for chat violations and I had chat off and I black listed almost the whole team. 

Here is a screen shot to remember from today.:

They gave away more stuff this month than I ever seen. I think they did this because they are losing players and I do not think it has done any good.

Actually I think I had a bad day like this about a month ago. Here are some screenshots from around that time.:

This has never happened to me ever; on WOT. I just wrote this to WOT and Microsoft this morning.:

2ndAD2015MPD

The truth is I do not know for sure what is going on. I am still doing all I can to find out and will not stop till I do.

I have noticed as of late that Microsoft is shutting down when I try to access your site through my tickets link in the game center.

I have had problems with Microsoft for weeks with their Microsoft Game Assist download. They install it and I uninstall it. I just found out it is installing on my computer without showing up in my task manager. That is usually how I spot it. Why would anyone want Microsoft Game Assist it is useless and would cause more problems than help.

I am starting to wonder if this is Microsoft Game Assist's fault.:

I just wrote this to them through OneDrive.:

It appears that Microsoft edge shuts down when I am accessing Wargaming.net through my Wargaming World of Tanks game center. Also my connection to the game was blocked all day last Saturday. I may have to take Microsoft to the Better Business Bureau if this continues. I pay money for this game and I lost my data trying to fix this last Saturday that also costs me money as I pay way too much for the internet. I think it is funny that this happened on a Saturday because that is when Microsoft try's to install it's game center that I keep having to uninstall. I will try to make Google Chrome as my default browser and hope this ends this intrusion.

Can you credit me a day of premium since I was unable to play that entire day. The blocking of your server did not stop for the entire day.

Updated August 24th 2025

When I tried to send this it said.: 

Something went wrong Sorry, we are having technical issues at the moment. Please try again later.

Regarding ticket: ID 148027698: World of Tanks

I take that back. I think it was someone that works for World of Tanks that purposely (or not) made me get lag. I looked it up on down detector and someone else had the same problem at the same time I did.  Why was my ping plotter reading other connections perfectly. The only bad ping plotter reading I got was from your server. Is it because I gave you all almost 20 thumbs down for 2 days in a row? From now on if I am on a losing streak, I am giving every defeat a thumbs down.  I have a Leo on my blacklist, that I have had problems with for years. I do not know if that is pertinent, but I had to mention it.

And why does WGCheck have a virus warning? 

In the end this may actually force me to pay more money to my internet provider. I am praying about it.

I would like this ticket to be answered during the work week by someone in charge.

I think it was my internet provider and now I used all my highspeed internet data. The game always seems to work at that point. Downloading updates takes longer though. I hope I can get heads up on the next update so I can run it overnight. Thank you for your help.

Email I sent my internet provider.:

My connection to World of Tanks was not functioning correctly so I decided to uninstall and reinstall the game. I did not know it was 24 gigabytes. Whether it was World of Tanks fault or my provider's  fault the connection went bad is still undetermined. World of Tanks says it was the connection. I have a folder full of data on the glitch. This has never happened to me and I have been playing WOT for almost a decade. The game usually works on low data so we are good for now. My account is confusing me on what day it ends.

As mentioned earlier, network problems occur already when you connect to your ISP's node. When connected to node 169.254.3.186, the ping value already reaches 543ms with spikes up to 1252ms. There are also network packet losses on the nodes of the backbone providers.

Which of the recommendations we suggested earlier have you implemented?

Hello, 2ndAD2015MPD‍.

In the network diagnostics report you sent, you can see that the problem (high ping) occurs already when you connect to the first node of your network connection - to the router/modem node. The problem further worsens on the nodes of the backbone Internet provider. A snapshot of the network diagnostics report clearly shows the problem. Vertical red bars that go from top to bottom nodes are packet losses and black ones - are ping spikes.

In this case, we can only recommend the following actions:

reboot the router/modem;

change the Wi-Fi channel in the settings of your access point or use a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi (if Wi-Fi is used)

contact your ISP.

Please inform us of the result.

August 5th 2025

Posted this after a good nights sleep.: I am sorry please don't take my World of Tanks. I just get so angry then I post that I hate the game. I only do this once and a while. Please be patient me. 18 loses and 2 wins in one day is very rare. I do love the game and am exactly 1/4 Russian i.e. Yugoslavian. My grandma who came from two full bread Yugoslavians that had a arranged marriage was a big part of my life growing up. I spent allot of time with her growing up. She taught me the Russian way. Things are not always fair and we have to restrain ourselves and have discipline over ourselves even when it is very difficult to do.

Updated August 4th 2025

Trust me Russia the best thing you can do is end this abomination of a fixed, cheating, money grabbing, game. Or not. Who cares? It is all internet garbage anyway.:

Former VK Chief Takes Over Russian Gaming Studio Behind World of Tanks Aug. 1, 2025

With his new post at Lesta, Dobrodeev re-enters the public tech sphere at a time when the Kremlin is deepening its control over digital media and online entertainment, including the fast-growing video game sector. Click here.

This was posted on the top of my home page on August 4th 2025.:

Please President Trump and The White House ban this corrupt game forever for stealing from the American people by the thousands of dollars; mostly veterans I suspect. They have affiliated with the worst of the worst over the years. They made friends with TikTok and Discord when they had the most mass murderers. They had to shut down their forum because it contained the most trolls the internet contained (in my opinion). They also had the most Russian anti Americans known to man. Do not tell me the Russians trolled the entire internet against the elections because I saw it with my own eyes in WOT. I am against the democrats myself; now, because of their pro communist propaganda. I pray for the democrats to change almost every day. That is no excuse for trolling in the land of the free. There is no excuse for trolling except mental disorders and I suspect WOT employees and their supporters are full of the evil narcissistic disease of trolling.

Please ban this Russian made rip off game called World of Tanks. It is a manipulated, unfair, and a money hungry game, with hundreds of rip off perks for sale everyday. I suspect many veterans and Americans have waisted thousands on this pay to play game. Go to this page and then report this game with all the proof you need to end this South Park says it best.



Here is the wonder of this Freemium trash I have been dealing with.:







18 and 2 wins today. 



Updated July 31st 2025

This happened allot. The reason I posted this this time is the same as the 28th in part. I play in the morning and all goes well. I do some amazing moves and win good. Then I log in latter in the early to late afternoon and my team loses every battle one after the other; it is quit bazar and can only be manipulated, there is no other explanation. Then I lose it and get angry and publish this page. I have always suspected that they change shifts and the people running the server in the afternoon are the most corrupt ones. The shots enemy tanks hit me with lately; have aroused my suspicion as well. I suspect cheating like I mentioned on my July 18th 2025 entry. I only play tier 9 tanks that is what bothers me the most. That means these cheaters gain access to high tiers and that seems imposable. I would rather WOT would go out of business than to have to endure this rampant, unethical, manipulation, of this game, anyone would come to that conclusion. There should be organizations that investigate things like this.

The 28th was mostly about getting a blank screen. What bothers me most is the blank screen of computer freeze always happens at the worst time; like after I win my best battle. It is almost as if someone is doing this to me on purpose.

I am suspicious every time I here of a tsunami. Go to this page and then report this game with all the proof you need to end this South Park says it best.:

I got angry again at WOT. This morning while I was playing that map that every goes to the middle of the map at E5. Just as I reached E5 my screen went black. I was facing the whole team about to shoot me and my screen went black. I put it in auto drive in reverse so I got of it. I have had weird things like  happen to me about once every other week for the past 2 months. It got to me so I published this page like I always do. I do not know where theses errors are from; that is what frustrates me more than anything.

This all happened in the span of about 10 minutes. I am 2nd AD if you don't know by now. 2nd AD aka Hell on Wheels was my wife's unit in the Army. MPD was my dads' police station he served half of my life. I would not be posting this unless this went on all day yesterday as well. Also WOT announced it was doing a cheater sweep as they uploaded it. It was as if WOT was warning the cheaters it was going to ban them before banning them. I suspect that WOT is not only ignoring the cheaters in the game but encouraging them. :

I have not seen this in a while. I think this OIK_warrior is a well-known agitator. I have about 20 variations of his name in my WOT Blacklist. I suspect he could be like many of these evil people; actual employee of WOT. I have often suspected WOT employes people to play their game because it is too unbearable for most people to put up with. I saw a arty go blue a day before this. It seems to be one of those miny trends of these self destructive, counterproductive players that are going through these days. I think all of this behavior steams for the Nazi element of this game.

Go hand of fate! NOT LUCK! Remember me with great Russian blood flowing threw my veins? I am exactly one quarter Yugoslavian. My great grandmother and grandfather came from Yugoslavia. They were so old school they had a arranged marriage. I was the pall bearer for my great grandmother because I was the oldest. It is tradition that the oldest does those kind of things. I remember not feeling the weight of the coffin because I was just a child at the time and the other men were grown.

The parent company, Lesta LLC, which was 99% owned by Malik Khatazhayev, became the property of the Federal Agency for State Property Management. Such changes have occurred in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities according to the KonturFocus information system.

Could the following article just be a sign of the hand of fate on WOT?:

MSN

Russian Government Looking to Seize Lesta Studio

The Russian government moves to effectively take control of Lesta Studio, the company running World of Tanks' live services in Russia.

.3 days ago

The Russian government is attempting to seize World of Tanks developer Lesta Studio over ties to Ukraine. The MMO has had a tense relationship with Russia since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, though things have been relatively quiet after some initial disruption during the early days of the conflict. Now, World of Tanks faces an uncertain future in the country as the state takes action against it.

See here.

19 loses and only 4 wins is way too much for me to take or play anymore. It just plain makes me kind of ill, to tell you the truth. I am not a liar and can not accept this as expectable fair play; without lying to myself. The worst lie is the lie you tell yourself. I have and will always be against that way; that is a sure way to ruin. Apparently it may be the way to WOT's ruin. Play fair or go away WOT. That is all I am trying to state. That is all this page is about from the 1st time I ever played this suspiciously unfair video game of WOT.

Updated May 25th 2025

Lost every battle I played in WOT this, the day before; Memorial Day, this weekend.

Things are not good this Memorial Day with my red white and blue tank. This could be why they are so anti American.:

Russia seizes Lesta Games inventory and accuses Wargaming and Lesta Games executives of "extremist" behavior. This is because Wargaming has taken a clear stance against the war in Ukraine. Russia Goes To War With Wargaming Russia has a problem with Wargaming. The studio has distanced itself from Russia and Belarus since the war and split in 2022 from Lesta Games, which is responsible for World of Tanks & World of Warships in Russia. Although the name might suggest otherwise, Wargaming has a clear stance on the war: in a statement at the time, the company emphasized that it was "deeply concerned" about the events and would offer humanitarian support. And it definitely didn't stop at empty words, as the company has repeatedly shown that it means what it says. Read full article here.

I am not playing the WOT Mech game ever. I do not care about.

Silentstalker's Top 10 Wargaming Fails

Author: Silentstalker

Hello everyone,

here are (in my opinion) the worst Wargaming fails, in a very general order. Most refer to the EU server (I have no idea what sort of crap is going on on the RU one and only vaguely understand the NA server issues). These things however do influence everybody.

10 - SerB trolling

SerB is the main developer and the creative director (I think), seated in Minsk. He quite often answers the questions to the developers. Nothing bad with that - only one thing: he likes to troll. A lot. Answers like "go play Tetris" and "go back to school" are popular in RU regions (SerB is vastly popular there), but when translated to English other languages (as they do, not only by me, but by other people too), they sound just rude and offensive. It's not that big of a deal, but a lot of people on EU server would just get insulted.

Storm is usually not trolling, but even he can be really rude:

"Hahaha. Suffer, faggot, your suffering makes us happy!"

9 - Russian historical bias

Everybody knows that nazi names, pictures and symbols are not allowed in the game and on Wargaming forums - and rightfully so, the nazi ideology is one of the worst evils that ever happened in mankind's history. However, at the same time, we have Wargaming developers naming themselves "KGB" and using Smersh avatars. I think we all can agree that Smersh and KGB were no "regular" organisations - they murdered thousands of people, dragged thousands more to die in Soviet Gulags and the only difference between KGB/Smersh and Gestapo/SS is that the nazis lost the war. The shameful Soviet propaganda is illegal in some European countries (Czech republic included, the 1948-1989 Communist party was banned here) and the "Stalinist" Soviet tank decal, promoting the mass murderer Stalin is as nasty as if the Germans wrote "SS Mann" on their tanks.

8 - Broken Clanwars

Clanwars are supposed to be the ultimate endgame World of Tanks equivalent to Warcraft's raiding, yet somehow, even after more than a year, they are still in beta phase and simply don't work. Everything gets broken down and there is hardly a month without Clanwars freeze. Now, I am no expert on Clanwars and I don't even like this sort of stuff, but it's absolutely clear that something's really wrong with them. The inability of Wargaming to produce a working endgame mechanism in 2 years is... not good.

7 - EU Moderators

Moderators are not Wargaming's employees in strictest sense. They are recruited from regular players and paid some chump change (200 Euro or so?) to police the forums. Naturally, that reflects their quality. Much like the "private security" mallcop companies, that accept simply anyone, Moderator corps on EU server specifically are swarming with (in better case) powertripping idiots, in worst case small people getting even their enemies thru power abuse. Complaints against moderators are not taken seriously, the appeal system does not work and the selection process is dubious (Remember the Czechout affair? A part of it was Czechout pushing thru a moderator called Idahou by making his warning points "disappear". That guy's still there and there were several complain threads opened in last months alone in the Czechoslovak section). Other common "feature" is different punishment for the same offense. Only yesterday I've seen a moderator on EU1 general chat ban a guy for saying two words in Polish, while literally in seconds, some other guy was spamming in German - he didn't get banned.

6 - Dysfunctional EU Q&A

Enough said here. While RU server gets answers and explanations from developers daily (and NA has The_Chieftain, who does an amazing job), EU is left in the dark. There is some guy named Quasar, who is allegedly a developer and who runs a joke of a Q&A (with a rate of 5 answers per month). It used to be much better, when Overlord (a really great guy by the way) used to operatively (immediately, imagine that!) answer the questions - and all that while being (now comes the big shock) very polite. Insane, right? Well, I guess I should thank them, most of the readers of this blog probably come here for the Wargaming news :)

5 - Fake tanks

Enough has already been written on the topic of Failowe being fake. Of course, it's not the only case - the T28 Prototype is mostly made up, E-50 Ausf.M is nearly made up, some German tanks have unhistorical armor and guns, the T71 is a mashup of two models as far as I know, the ingame Chaffee is a historian's nightmare and so on. Of course, it wouldn't be such a problem.... IF Wargaming didn't fanatically enforce historical data on other vehicles. Buff an underperforming vehicle? "Why, it's historical!"

4 - Impotent Wargaming Paris community section

This is something I criticized for a long time, both before my ban and after. The EU community section is completely impotent. They can't do anything on their own, they have absolutely no power (all decisions that matter are taken in Minsk) and their PR is a nightmare. Now, I don't think they are bad people. Supercharge has some nice articles, Challenger is great (what I do somehow see as a problem is that it is my impression he doesn't talk to us "common folks", but only to the cadre of soldiers/war veterans in his section). Blanchard I have absolutely no idea about - seems like a nice guy, not posting very much. Ectar - again, probably a nice guy in real life, but by GOD, they are all so... I don't know... empty? No improvisation, no changes, everything has to be scheduled from Minsk - in the past, this led to some pretty funny fails. Remember that time the random battles were flooded with (fresh in the shop) Type 59 tanks? It was a disaster, there were like 15 vs 15 Type 59 battles and at one point I just quitted for a while, because for someone grinding a regular T7 tank it was unplayable. A few weeks into this nightmare, Wargaming EU made a post on the portal about how wonderful Type 59 is and how to play it. A perfect shot in the foot, forums started raging that the players are getting trolled and from what I know, the EU community organizers *facepalmed* at the post, but they HAD to post it, because it was sent from Minsk. Eventually, the post was removed, but not before a huge backlash.

Another case was the "Stalinec" issue. A player posted in the general section that he finds the Soviet decal "Stalinec" offensive. Naturally, a debate was started and in the end, Ectar promised he would personally pass the complaint to Minsk. He kept his promise - only to be openly mocked by SerB (or Storm) in the Russian Q&A thread. Says a lot about how much Minsk respects WG Paris.

And don't let me even get started about the "Voroshilov was a strategic mastermind" affair, that didn't make the Polish players very happy...

Oddly enough, Wargaming US seems to be a LOT more different and independent. They have The_Chieftain (a sort of military expert and developer mix), who - while he probably hates my ass - actually REPLIES daily on stuff the way Overlord did - so don't tell me it isn't possible.

3 - 83mm HE shell fiasco

A quick recap: from the RU version of patch 0.8.4 it was found out, that 83mm HE shells would basically quadruple in price, making a huge profit possible. This info did spread like a wildfire and people bought a LOT of 83mm HE shells, only for WG Europe to announce the price wouldn't quadruple, but only double, so those who "invested" like this wouldn't be getting crap. Subsequently a LOT of people raged, because some invested literally millions of credits and some even sold their vehicles in order to make profit.

The price reduction itself was not that big of a problem. The biggest problem was the fact that - unlike the Europeans, the Russians DID get the price quadrupled (it was lowered weeks after the Russians recieved the 0.8.4 patch) and some made quite a lot of money on this. Apparently, all players are equal, but some are more equal than others.

The second issue was the PR handling of the situation. EU staff was completely clueless, only Ectar was actually attempting to explain and they let the shitstorm get into giantic proportions - it took two days for the forums to calm down somewhat and I bet some people still feel pretty crappy when they remember the whole damn thing.

2 - EU supertest handling

Where to start? I have been talking to a few supertersters for some time and it is my impression the Supertest was a mess. Everything was in Russian (the english translations were done by volunteers) and EU players were generally treated like 2nd class citizens. A lot of Russians displayed an anti-European attitude and at least one moderator went from what I know on a nasty anti-European rant. Needless to say, this backfired by disgruntled supertesters starting to leak stuff. Make no mistake: it wasn't only Europeans who leaked stuff, at least one of the leaks I got was a Russian and no, it was not the one of the two who got punished (so we can expect more leaks in the future). In the end, all the EU supertesters were sacked, which might seem a logical step, but then again, the question is, whether the leaks were the result of bad people being bad, or of Wargaming's attitude towards EU supertesters.

Naturally, another reason is the fact that Wargaming just keeps too many secrets. A sneak peek here and there would do wonders...

1 - Czechout affair

Need I say more? A quick summary: a WG employee was fixing competitions (plus a bunch of other stuff), it was made public and the employee was kicked out after an epic shitstorm. I am sure all of us from the EU server remember that.

Honorable mentions: some might remember the "Design your Porsche vehicle" contest from last year, that was a disaster (took 3 months or so to pick "winners" and in the end, they appeared to be picked at random, which caused a rage). Czech "Design your own competition" contest - the results simply disappeared and noone heard of it ever again. Ingame illogical bugs (0 damage hits), that can be seriously annoying. The Red Screen of Death - that was fortunately fixed, but not before haunting the game for months. The Pearl River map screenies - Wargaming gave out "exclusive" content to some bloggers and streamers and told everyone it's exclusively for them - much to their surprise, the same screenies appeared all over the internet at the same time and boy did the people feel stupid.

I am sure there are many more you could mention. Truth to be told, there is a lot of room for improvement. But it's not all bad. World of Tanks is a great concept and a good game - and I personally enjoy it. Let's hope these "thingies" get fixed in the future.

Ever heard of the Red Army? World of Tanks as a game glorifies the Red Army, you can even paint ‘For Stalin’ on your tank.: http://ftr.wot-news.com/2015/01/24/otto-carius-passed-away/

I think this points out that the Russian tanks were not better than all the American tanks; like in WOT.:https://www.theshermantank.com/sherman/armor-yeah-the-sherman-had-it-and-it-was-better-than-the-german-armor-of-comparable-weight/

Unreal! 12 loses in a row in just 1 hour and 10 minutes.:



Updated April 5th 2025

What they do is when you buy premium; they make you play more for that 5 premium wins. They make you play all day for buying premium. This is exactly what a commie dictator would do. They make you liable for the rest of the players for being able to buy premium. I just went threw 3 days of this. I had it! So here is a screenshot of today; my about 3rd day, of my great losing streak.. They make you work twice as hard to get those 5 wins with a premium account. They do this every time I get a premium account. They punish you for using your hard earned money; this is exactly what communist dictator would do. May WOT coward haters go bankrupt; soon.: 



Updated February 4th 2024

It is so easy. The internet is overflowing with negative information about how unfair WOT is. I hope to get as much as I can here. The problem is the more I read the more I get repulsed so I can barely stand working on this page. 

World Of Tanks-A manipulated game not worth playing!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUAgDM8CQYA

This game is 100% manipulated. The game is 100% manipulated by the creators. The win probability is 25% at most. It is based on spending as much money as possible. There is also no response from the Russia-oriented creators to the many, many complaints so there really is truth in those complaints. Support is 0.0. The explanations falter on all sides and no matter how much money you spend, you barely win. Also the monthly subscription where you would get advice is completely useless. Advice: Don't spend a penny on games from WarGaming. By the way: Do not complain towards WarGaming with the e-mail address you registered with. Your performance will go down another 50% directly after they have read your e-mail. Keep your kids away from here! Date of experience: 28 January 2025: https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/worldoftanks.com

The game is rigged and built upon greed. I would advise that you spend your money on more deserving developers. WG does not care about your match outcomes, as long as the fools are easily parted with their money they will continue business as usual.: http://steamcommunity.com/app/1407200/discussions/0/3763355849153212990/?ctp=3#c4336483289191621288

Most rigged game in gaming history? I have 4 tier 10 SPGs and need 12,000,000 credits to get 2 more I have unlocked - but it is impossible to accumulate those credits. Using basic ammo if our team loses I lose anywhere from 20-40K Credits a game, if our team wins I may gain 1-20K tops - sometimes even negative on a win - regardless of how much damage I do or regardless of how many kills I have, this occurred even when I had free premium and free reserves (I quit for a few years because it was so rigged and came back to see if it still was - It was). Its not a skill thing, its a rigged game thing. So any new players out there. This is a pay to play game that is rigged in every way a game can be rigged. If you think its going to get better when you hit tier 10 because they can no longer put you 2 tiers under in a match you're wrong, they will screw you in other ways. Their game is to let you win at first to sucker you in then slam you to get you to pay money. Think about World of Tanks as a Casino where the House openly cheats in your face and there is nothing you can do about it. The best thing you can do is NOT enter the door. You may think you can beat the house but you can't unless they decide to let you.: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1407200/discussions/0/6400272865046894915/

Here is a screen shot from today. Also my troll ware has gone into hyperdrive since I have ben complaining more about the "rigged" game.:


10 loses in a row!

Updated February 2nd 2024

This game obviously glorifies nazis. This game played us all as fools.

I reposted my IHWOT page because my virus was acting up way more than normal; constant. Isn't it weird that I have troubles with WOT every Saturday night? That made me assume it was WOT that was doing it. I have always suspected my troll ware virus was related to WOT. It is still doing it now; so maybe it was not WOT. Sorry if it was not. Remember I really do love playing WOT very much and I really do not want to go out of business. Then I think maybe the nazi lovers should fail very badly; the only thing is I have so much time invested and my crew and tanks are so highly trained, it took years. This page is designed to make them learn their lesson and change. If they do not change their dishonest ways they must go. I will be getting a premium account as soon as I a done doing art. My art is taking up all my free time now and will be for a while.

I have a program that I pay for that is like a way less expensive compared to a upgrade to a regular paid security program. This program finds when the troll ware is activated. I am able to deactivate it and it does not come back, at all, after a while of deactivating it. I have studied it over the years and it usually activates when I copy and paste something from the internet or when I edit or use Microsoft photo program or any video game program. The thing that bothers me with WOT is that it activates when I open it, then when get to the ready point or garage, then shortly after my first battle and sometimes after a few battles. This takes place every time I use WOT. Every time. Also over the years; I figured out that losing battles and the troll ware were directly related; every single time. The main reason I noticed the newly more bothersome troll ware had become hyperactive is because I monitor it so much when I play WOT. That has always made me feel that this troll ware could be coming from WOT; especially since they had the most trolls I have ever seen on their forum and chat channels, that they actually had to delete they were so bad. I used to try to stop the trolls like a good guy and this of course this just made them worse. I learned about trolls from the South Park episodes on that subject. They love when people protest them because that upsets more people and so, and so on: it is a severe mental illness to enjoy when people suffer. It is a sick and twisted methodology that people should really take medication to prevent; it is that bad.

Updated January 28th 2025 

I made a new petition to try to help WOT.: https://chng.it/5YdPjyr6FL

Imagine us all fighting the bad guys together. It would make the game so much more worth while and inspire us all to remember history correctly; in order to not repeat it. 

You do away with all the Nazi tanks. To be more historically accurate you make the red team all Nazi bots. You could offer it; as a alternative to random battles at first. Call it Random Battles 2 or something like that. No Nazi tanks aloud by humans except if they volunteer to be on the Nazi bot team,  this would make other players want to defeat them all the more. 15 humans' verse 15 Nazi bots and volunteer players. The bots could make up the difference; because I am sure not many people would like to be on the Nazi bot team. See? Or up the number of players; since it might be easier to program with bots. That is a great idea! 

I think having Nazi tanks fighting along side of other country's; creates a atmosphere of hate and is the reason so many players of World of Tanks are so negative.  

Sign my petition that I made; here.: https://chng.it/5YdPjyr6FL

I sent the large paragraph from Updated January 27th 2025, below and the following was the response to this ticket submitted to Wargaming; below this paragraph under the Updated January 27th 2025 post.:

Thank you for contacting Wargaming Support!

There are no "blacklists" or personal settings for "oppressing" the account or tanks of individual players. Also, the game does not have any settings for wins/losses or "influences" on the work of the matchmaker. Game mechanisms are the same for all players.

There are many game mechanics in the game, but they all work the same for all players.

Therefore, it does not matter who plays. The game mechanisms will work the same way.

Victory is not guaranteed in the game. The result of the battle depends only on the players who take part in it. From their coherence and ability to realize an advantage, to use a more appropriate strategy, based on the type of tanks in a team. The number of wins (defeats) during the game session is not limited either. It is quite possible as a series of victories, and a series of defeats. To increase the chances of winning, we recommend that you organize more often with other players in the group. The administration of the project creates the same conditions for all players to achieve the result. Another thing is that each player uses them their own way, according to their skills and abilities.

We regret that you cannot win as often as you wish; however, we are powerless to help you.

I suspect the above response from WOT is either a lie or copy and pasted by someone who does not know what they are responding to. I am telling the truth; I seriously believe they can control wins and maybe able to program the game to be used against people. Why do I only have troubles like this when I play past 2PM? It is so weird too; the defeats are not normal defeats the other team wipes out my team in about 2 minutes. It is embarrassing to me, to WOT and especially my 14 teammates.

Updated January 27th 2025 

I have every right to repost this page. First thing I want to say is this started at about 4pm Saturday. I took this page down for a whole week. I sat down to play the game and lost eight battles in a row. First I want to mention that my wife is my confidante. I tell her absolutely everything. I mean everything about me always; even the most miniscule thing. She even knows all about this unending nonsense. How do you lose eight battles in a row? That is extremely rare. It is obvious WOT is doing this to me on purpose and with great malus. It could be, because I have a few lines I added on my home page; trying to be nice about all this. The weekends are the worst; that and at night; coincidently the times I rarely play because of my schedule. Weekends and nights are when they most misuse the game against me. Yesterday I tried to play and it was the worst, even though I barely played 4 battles; that's how bad it was, I could barely cope with playing one battle, it was that unbearable. They are able to use the game against me. I do not know how they do it. They actually have a way to manipulate the game against me in a most embarrassing and belittling way to me. It seems like when I repost this page; it gets way worse. It is as if all the players are bots or turn to bots and they make me lose the battle freakishly fast. If that is not true; they are using the thirty people playing the game against me; the whole battle, just to prove some kind of sick revenge on me as a player of a video game, and that seems too low and unthinkable even for these notoriously unfair people they have proven themselves to be all these years. Either way it is a agonizing few minutes for me in everyway. I hate to admit it but this has a lasting effect on me; as trivial as it seems to most sensible people. I just have to keep telling myself; it is just a game to provide some kind of solace in all this madness of a abusive videogame corporation. It is almost frightening to have to endure all this. This back and forth is ridiculous; I am just one little old man trying to defend myself from a huge corporation. Of course I am always the one that gives up; just like I will, over and over. Still it is not right to use the power they have in the way they do. At least I have weekday mornings and early afternoons when it seems the staff there are much more cognitive and fare.

You want some real Holocaust WOT? Here is some real life WOT! This is some real life talk. This is not that guy in the WOT General Chat room that said he wished all LGBT people would be sent to the ovens to die; like the Holocaust! Just because you aloud that in a WOT main chat room: you should go bankrupt!

Updated January 26th 2025 

This game tries to say they are not anti-American; by offering flags and having events like Rambo; but they are. Everyone knows this game favors Russia; that is a known fact. Obviously it is because this game is made and managed in Russia. I have lost too many battles with my patriotic camo and flags to know this game has a leaning toward anti-Americanism. I have seen other players in those battles with patriotic camo losing too. Do not get me wrong I always see the few good Americans that there are in this game; inspired by patriotism, may the Lord bless them. 

This is new but watch out for the cuss words.:

I would recommend you to stop playing wot and find a new game without spg. People who talk trash about a tank class that needs skill to aim and hit properly. After watching your video dont you ever cross my way. I feel insulted from your anti spg behavior and players like you should be banned from this game for good. Its the same like calling spg players “clicker sh@tter” or “sky cancer” the real clickers are people who play so called seal-clubbing tanks like the matilda, the kv1 or the pz kpfw II or similar ones where you need no brain just right click and fire non stop.: https://pkmods.com/why-world-of-tanks-sucks-part-2-sucks-for-good-players-by-chems/#google_vignette

OBVIOUS BOT users in WoT – THE BULLSHIT Fair Play Policy By WG – Yes, World Of Tanks is infested with BOT’s…

2 weeks ago 

I got ONE question for WG:

HOW CAN THESE SCUMABGS STILL PLAY AND NOT BE BANNED FOR OBVIOUS BOT USAGE ?!?

(and just to be clear, all these I personally saw in random battles. I did not search for them, they did not get sent to me via emails etc., these have ALL been with me on the battlefield)

I will update this post every F day I play and see them. This is F too much even for me…: https://pkmods.com/obvious-bot-users-in-wot/

I think the above article is from a Russian dude. This could be encouraging because we need WG defectors to tell us the truth about what is going on with WOT. I suspect bots are used without people knowing and have suspected that for years. 

This is another good one (below). Again look out for the cuss words. Notice the Tanks are high tier tanks that are using the cheats. This means that World Of Tanks allows this person that cheats, to use the game long enough to get to high tier tanks; possibly years.

If You Ever Wondered What Weakspot Aimbot (Illigal mod) Looks Like in The Winter Mode: https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldofTanks/comments/1i9zvnd/if_you_ever_wondered_what_weakspot_aimbot_illigal/

I never could understand how anyone could drive a nazi tank. Considering how negative most of the players are makes sense because I suspect many of them are actual nazis. Some players decorate their tanks with a excess of nazi symbolism and take it from me; it does no good to complain about it. 

Wot has to worry about legality in some European countries, in some countries a nazi symbol is illegal....just like some countries can't have loot boxes due to gambling laws.: https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldofTanks/comments/1d4ijsd/is_this_actually_allowed/?rdt=46265

This is probably for the best. Playing World of Tanks, I am too frequently reminded of the worst aspect of modern gaming’s obsession with the Second World War: Games that include Nazis tend to attract gamers who want to role-play Nazis. They’re fortunately a small minority, and the developers are pretty good at punishing players for crossing the line and posting truly abhorrent materials. (Speaking about how great Hitler was is a good way to lose your account.) However, the developers have inexplicably decided that naming your account after Nazi generals is acceptable, provided that the Nazi in question isn’t a convicted war criminal.: https://www.quartertothree.com/fp/2012/11/02/world-of-tanks-the-dark-side-of-realism/

I have witnessed the most disgusting chat behavior in my life in the general chat aria of World of Tanks. I began taking screenshots of it. I posted them on the forums pages until I got accused of shaming people. One of the worst that I can remember offhand was chat about killing all LGBT people. It said they were going to burn them all in the ovens like the holocaust. Both the chat channel; general chat and the forums have since been deleted. 

Updated January 22nd 2025 

I got a email from WOT today and it said you should check out these deals. I followed the link and it said discus on Discord. What is up with that? Don't they know how controversial Discord is? Why would I want anything to do with those type of people? Why would any normal person want anything to do with Discord? 

Updated January 16th 2025 

What prompted me to republish this page this time; was I sat down all psyched up to play WOT and I lost about 9 battles and won only one. I assume this is because it was just after a update. After a update I have always suspected the programmers play with maxed out tanks that are just given to them without them having to spend years upgrading it like normal people. My mistake was to be so psyched up. Still they misuse the game this way and that is what made me full of righteous anger.

I almost forgot to ad this to this page and it is probably why I was so quick to republish it again.:

I recently divulged some of the problems I have had online with viruses and such. I mention the troll ware virus I have. I just want to say nothing activates the troll ware virus I have like WOT. 

This is such a love hate thing with me. When I get angry with this game I publish this page. Then I get a good nights sleep and feel bad about it and take it down. After all these years of trying to make my tanks better it is such a investment I can not turn my back on that; yet I do after one bad day playing this frustrating game. You know someday this game will go out of business. I will probably be sad then; about complaining so much about it when. 

Great. What this means to me is I will not be able to get help if I need it.:

World of Tanks Developer Wargaming Hit With Layoffs Published January 15, 2025 Wargaming, the company behind popular titles like World of Tanks, has laid off an unspecified number of employees. According to multiple former staff members, the news was delivered internally today, January 15, 2025. Reports indicate the QA department was hit the hardest, but the layoffs also extended to Art and potentially other teams. As of now, the exact percentage of employees affected hasn’t been confirmed. One source tells The Game Post that those laid off received two weeks of severance pay.: https://thegamepost.com/world-of-tanks-developer-wargaming-hit-with-layoffs/

Why does this game suck so hard and why can’t I stop playing it?

Discussion

I picked it up last week after taking a break since 2015. Nothing has changed. It’s still awful. I hate every match I play whether I win or lose. The menus suck. The tanks are historically incorrect. The nations are wildly biased. The power creep is absurd. Everything is too expensive and grindy.: https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldofTanks/comments/10gl0eb/why_does_this_game_suck_so_hard_and_why_cant_i/?rdt=62829

Updated December 10th, 2024

Well I just lost 20 battles in WOT today. It seems like every time I have patriotic camo on like the screen shot below (next image you see scrolling down this page)  I get discriminated by WOT.

I want to point out the embarrassing fact about this game; that is the most disgraceful thing about WOT; is the fact that there is so, so much to purchase from this game. You can spend your hard earned money on this rip off of a game to no end. The fact that there is so much to buy in this game is a obvious give away that they are out to get your money any way they can. I feel bad for veterans who I think they target to take advantage of; especially retired veterans. They have this one thing they sell sometimes for 1,000 dollars. It is almost every premium tank in the game; still this is so wrong. Hundreds of things to sell in this game for money; makes it a obvious way to steal from people. They also have many click bate ads for in game items that can be confusing enough to actually buy them without paying attention to what you are doing. They need to do research to see how many venerable people have been takin advantage of by this game; especially retired veterans. The click bate sales tactics seem to be getting worse and worse from about 3 years now. I find it embarrassing to me to just read them sometimes.

I agree with Hot-Cartographer; this game should be banned in America like TikTok their affiliate.:

Be under no illusions - this is a money grab!

Be under no illusions, this is simply an unashamed money grab. Every game is rigged, the game is primed around extorting the maximum amount of cash from as many players as possible, everything else is secondary. The principal tactic appears to be to elicit frustration in the hope people will "pay to win", while all the time denying this is a p2w platform. Yet the company will still spin their web of lies around this being some sort of "competitive" game, when in reality this is all part of the delusion they create to prey on those not insightful enough to see it for what it is - avoid and certainly don't fall into the trap of spending any cash nor too much of your time on this deceitful nonsense!

I want to point out how many times I have seen WOT affiliated with very controversial social media groups.:

Highly sensitive classified information repeatedly appearing on online gaming forums has intelligence experts exasperated. “The idea of paying a source to dead-drop this stuff when it’s popping up unsolicited on Minecraft and world of tanks seems quaint,” says Gavin Wilde, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and a 10-year veteran of the National Security Agency. :

When I think of money I give WOT (and all those retired veterans give wot) going towards stupid side games like babylon whatever; it sickens me. I never play those stupid games. I played one, one time that was a soccer game. So what! make wot better; not stupid dumb side games.

Why does Wargaming never reuse their event modes Like road to Berlin or those weird sphere shaped tanks on the moon (I think).  While we surely had some really awful events there were many great ones and they would be even better if you wouldn't be FORCED to play said mode until you puke, just so you can finish it and get all the rewards.. The only thinks that come again and again are ranked and steel hunter, but those you always have to push through aswell.  Why can't they just keep cycling through these events for, you know, for FUN. But never mind who even plays WoT for fun anymore. Deep down we are all addicts or spent to much money on it to quit or are lost in Clan related stuff.

Wow this is getting ridiculous (rng penetration)

After about 100 battles in Tier 8, I can clearly see what people say about WG rigging penetration and ♥♥♥♥. Dozens of examples where the penetration goes brrrrr and logic is ♥♥♥♥, and the only explanation is "♥♥♥♥ happens".

So Tier 8 TS5, premium shell, penetration 300... vs ... Tier 10 Centurion Action X, side hull armor 50, hit in the middle on the side, under turret, clear shot mark on green spot! It says "Armor not penetrated"

What a ♥♥♥♥♥ joke... 300 penetration vs 50 penetration at 90' angle (perpendicular) and it doesnt penetrate.: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1407200/discussions/0/5144805327249274070/

Updated October 16th 2024.:

Here are my latest screenshots from this anti-American game. Here is a copy of the replay. Click here.:





Updated October 14th 2024.:

I guess I played over 30 battles today and only won about 8 battles. Most all of the battles I lost were with my most patriotic veterans' only camo. That as always leads me to believe World of Tanks is anti-American. Yet Arnold Schwarzenegger sponsors them? Wake up Arnold and all my friends that know him should warn him.  I will republish this page that I work on in secret. I will take it down latter because WOT is intimidating to protest against.

I took the page down again. I will work on it some more and next time my time is hijacked by this form of cyberbullying; I will post it again for a limited time. I do love the game. If I did not care I would not complain about it. This paragraph was updated on October 14th 2024.

It is hard to find articles against WOT because I suspect they scrub the internet of it. In time I hope to find some good ones for this page. New articles will be descending on this page.

I am adding a new page today (again) despite all I can do to play this game that is so obviously against me; personally. https://radmanart2ndhome.blogspot.com/p/i-hate-world-of-tanks.html  I would love nothing more than to see them go out of buisness. I am calling on all my friends on the internet that I have been apart of since 1994 to make WOT play fair or go bankrupt. 

‎Friday, ‎September ‎20, ‎2024, ‏‎8:12:29 AM:

I recently freaked out against WOT because since the last update I played about 200 battles in about 1 and 1/2 weeks and won about 20. It was the worst time I ever had playing WOT to date. I think I was kind of justified by complaining about it in chat. I am loyal to WOT and always have been more than most people are capable to. I have dedicated WOT to the Lord and use it to pray more in as about the past 4 years. You should know that; it means things beyond explanation to most people's understanding. I also know someone who kind of knows Arnold and would not hesitate to complain like that; if this ever happens again. Such is life. WOT is life to me. About 4 months out of the year I do artwork almost constantly for my blog:  radmanart2ndhome.blogspot.com the rest of the year is WOT time. It is like my reward for completing such a large amount of work (again; that most people are incapable of accomplishing). If I did not love this game so much I would not complain so constructively; in ways most people are not capable of.

I dedicate this page to hating the PC version of World of tanks and all the articles I can find that can prove this game is underhanded and completely unfair. I have tried to complaining to WOT and it has done nothing and gets worse all the time. The more time passes the more WOT has proven they do not care about their most loyal players.

I will start by adding this petition I found recently against World Of Tanks. It says it all.:

Click here.

This is worded so well I must copy and paste it here.:

My personal journey in the World of Tanks game has spanned over a decade - a testament to my dedication. Having observed recent changes over the last 5 years, myself and many fellow players are disappointed and feel neglected. Wargaming has triggered increased dissatisfaction amongst the player community with its series of updates, namely the significant price hikes for in-game items, the matchmaking process falling short of expectations, and the prevention of cheating mods that hinder fair gaming. The consequences? A drastic decrease in the game's player base - a clear signal that the game is no longer deemed fair or enjoyable by many. Predominantly, it's the company's disregard for player feedback that truly highlights their flawed business model. I wish to request Wargaming conduct a comprehensive rollback of these detrimental changes in the interest of game's longevity and the welfare of its loyal players. Moreover, Wargaming must also focus on blocking all cheat mods, maintaining the matchmaking to no more than one tier higher. Together, we can restore the original charm and fairness of World of Tanks that first attracted us. Your voice can make a difference - support this petition to echo our collective desire for reformation. I will be presenting this petition to Wargaming. I propose that if our voices are not heard that we all stop paying to play and do not support the game financially starting with weekly bans on purchases to be advised on dates.

I disagree a little with this. It sounds like this person wants the general chat channel to come back and I totally disagree with that. It was in the words of WOT "a cesspool".

I am not interested in any of the games on the list. I am glad they mention WOT in this important article.:

I am convinced if WOT does not like you; they put me on the losing team, who I am not sure are human.:

Since we now know that matchmaking puts players with higher number of matches played with newer players. Is it possible that is why you see so many 9 + to zero games now . Finding my team to have no clue and fold early. I'm losing more games than I'm winning lately (Maybe I'll just play co-op) at least the bots are smarter.

Criticism of Wargaming.net, particularly regarding World of Tanks, often stems from a combination of gameplay mechanics, business practices, and community interactions. Here are some common reasons why some players express dissatisfaction:

1. Monetization and Microtransactions

Pay-to-Win Perception: Many players feel that the game’s monetization strategy favors those who spend money, allowing them to acquire powerful tanks or premium features that give them an advantage.

Premium Tanks: The existence of premium tanks that can be purchased rather than earned through gameplay can lead to frustration among players who feel that skill should be the primary factor in success.

2. Gameplay Balance

Balancing Issues: Some players argue that certain tanks are overpowered or underpowered, which can lead to frustrating experiences in battles.

Matchmaking Problems: The matchmaking system can place players in matches where they are significantly outmatched, leading to unbalanced games.

3. Game Updates and Support

Frequent Changes: Regular updates can alter gameplay dynamics, leading to dissatisfaction among players who prefer a stable experience.

Customer Support: Players have reported issues with customer support responsiveness and effectiveness, leading to further frustration.

4. Community Management

Toxicity: The community can be perceived as toxic, with negative interactions among players, which can deter new players from enjoying the game.

Developer Communication: Some players feel that Wargaming.net does not communicate effectively with the community regarding changes and future plans.

5. Comparison to Other Games

War Thunder: Players often compare World of Tanks to War Thunder, which features a more realistic approach to tank combat and allows for combined arms battles with aircraft. Some players prefer War Thunder’s mechanics, graphics, and realism.

Armored Warfare: Although it has had its own issues, Armored Warfare aimed for a more modern and tactical gameplay experience, which some players found more engaging compared to World of Tanks’ arcade-style mechanics.

Conclusion

While World of Tanks has a dedicated player base and is successful in many respects, the combination of monetization practices, balancing issues, community interactions, and comparisons to other titles contributes to the criticism it receives. Each game has its strengths and weaknesses, and player preferences vary widely based on what they seek in a gaming experience.

I tried War Thunder and do not like it either. Armored Warfare sounds even worse. Read more of the above article here.: https://www.quora.com/Why-do-people-hate-on-Wargaming-net-World-of-Tanks-What-makes-it-bad-compared-to-other-games-like-War-Thunder-Armored-Warfare-etc

World of Tanks matchmaker isn’t simply rigged. It’s perverted to the point where playing good is penalized and a simple “run up and autoaim red” bot is rewarded the most. Leveling a tank is a frustrating and annoying grind instead of playing a game. Don’t touch this abomination with a stick!

I will work more on this. It is going to take some work. 

Updated October 4th 2024:

I have more than 30k battles and i can say its a pay to win game with a horrible matchmaking. You can be the best World Of Tanks player in the world and if you have a bad team you will lose 100% of the time. So it does not matter if you are a good player if you lose you will be punished for it because your team was full of noobs and bots. Do not recommend playing this game and tell your friends also.: https://www.metacritic.com/game/world-of-tanks/user-reviews/

Before you think of installing World of Tanks, please note that the game is rather bland and the personalities you will find online are even more boring.

Read over their terms of service, register your account, play some games, and discover how incredibly bland the game is.

For a war game, the people playing the game are offended at nearly anything you can do or write. "Reported" is the most common word you will find in the in-game chat, and people routinely troll others into an emotional reaction so their comments can be reported and that user banned from using their gaming account.

Thankfully, I did not invest a single nickel in this game in money but I spent too much time that is now just wasted...until I created this blog.

Do not waste money on this game. You will regret it. If your goal is to troll people out of their minds, you will find yourself a true utopia. The amount of hurt feelings over simple comments runs long and their community moderators are ban crazy. You can use this to your advantage to inflict harm on their users.: https://wargamingnet.blogspot.com/2013/06/world-of-tanks-sucks.html

This is a good one. Some of our internet geniuses spend time investigating this game. this game needs to be investigated by seasoned players who can describe what is going on. This is a very intelligent observation or could actually be a former WOT employee for all we know.:

Wargaming and the rigged matchmaker and system behind microtransactions

An in depth explanation of why World of Tanks as a franchise is becoming a traditional pay to win game and how the developers are manipulating their players to commit to using premium services to get an advantage in the matchmaker.

A similar investigation and exposing has been made on several titles utilizing a similar microtransaction model. Most long-term players can't deny the obvious drastic change in matchmaking when queueing with a newly purchased premium vehicle that was on a major holiday sale. For example, the Chrysler K GF where many reviewers got censored by Wargaming for exposing the truth about their corrupt system.

In a nutshell Wargaming implemented a system that arrange matches to influence game-related purchases. For instance, the system may match premium players against a team of mediocre players to encourage the mediocre players to make game-related purchases of items possessed/used by the premium players. The mediocre players may wish to emulate the premium players by obtaining premium vehicles or other items used by the premium players.

In one implementation, the matchmaker may target particular players to make game-related purchases based on their interests. For example, the matchmaker may identify a mediocre player to match with a team of premium players based on a player profile of the mediocre player.

In a particular example, the mediocre player may wish to become a good tank destroyer in the game. The matchmaker may match the mediocre player with a team that have highly skilled tank destroyers in the game. In this manner, the mediocre player may be encouraged to make game-related purchases such as a premium tank destroyer or other items used by the premium players.

When a player makes a game-related purchase, the matchmaker may encourage future purchases by matching the player in a match that will utilize the game-related purchase. Doing so may enhance a level of enjoyment by the player for the game-related purchase, which may encourage future purchases.

For example, if the player purchased a particular premium vehicle, the matchmaker may match the player in which the particular vehicle is highly effective, giving the player an impression that the particular vehicle was a good purchase. This may encourage the player to make future purchases to achieve similar results.

If a player has been performing poorly, e.g. getting killed at a rate higher than the player's historical rate, the matchmaker may dynamically adjust one or more coefficients to match the player in a game that will improve the player's performance. For example, the player may be matched with easier opponents, matched with better teammates, and/or placed in a match that is more tailored to the player's preferences.

When you hear or see the term rigged matchmaking when playing Wargaming titles this is the most believable theory of how Wargaming is manipulating their players to commit to using premium services. This is also how their games, World of Tanks in particular, is becoming a traditional pay to win game utilizing microtransactions that have a direct effect on the matchmaker and the players' performance.: https://steamcommunity.com/app/444200/discussions/3/1484359403777141730/

There are allot of good points on this page. Like this one.: 

The game is rigged and built upon greed. I would advise that you spend your money on more deserving developers. WG does not care about your match outcomes, as long as the fools are easily parted with their money they will continue business as usual. 

And this one.:

Buy premium tanks, fire gold and you will be put into a segregated player pool on the winners side. If you're playing on a standard account and not spending any money, you will be placed in the team with bots and low end players, they make the game enjoyable for paying customers not for the freeloaders.

So if you're a paying customer, WG will respect your time by placing you with other competent team mates to increase your pleasure of playing and keep you spending.

I used to pay a lot, buying premium tanks and spending, once you stop you get placed into the "free to play" player pool.

Also don't be fooled by streamer accounts who have tanks magically driving in front of them, those accounts are shills to keep people looking upwards, thinking they too can be that god like if they continue playing. 

You really have to wonder if some of this stuff like the above comment is written by former WOT employees. I know they have defectors I have read about them. I suspect WOT of scrubbing them from the internet; first and foremost. I have read the best articles against WOT then I go to find them again and they are no where to be found.
