    say no to racism

    Since nearly every civilised country in the world changed their laws to include Nationality and prejudice against Nationality as racism.

    That's a bit much. If your any nationality other then UK then why would you speak English? Lots of people do but they shouldn't have to to play this game. As much as Ectar and me bump heads the guy has been working by himself for a period of time. If the situation persists after new staff are trained up, then you'll have a point. The guy apologised and said the situation will get better, wait and see if it does.

    Whoa there horsey.................... I think you might have misunderstood me totally. I have no problem at all with anything NA get, don't get, might get. I don't care, I'm fully on board with there being separate teams for separate servers and each server having different marketing and promotional needs and requirements. I was commenting on you saying that there might be a comp in the future and my point of view on WG comps is that they benefit only a small elite section of the overall playerbase. I used clan wars and Type 59's as an example of this. The vast majority of us will never see a clan wars reward tank or a Type in our garage because they get won by only the very best players or by very, very lucky people who watch streams. This had nothing to do with comparing EU and NA. You probably don't agree with me most of the time but you have let your dislike of me get the better of you there, please re read my posts in this subject, I am in no way moaning about NA getting stuff we are not. Edit: I've re read the whole thread and I think we have misunderstood each other and that's my fault, I didn't make myself clear enough. It is not that I didn't think you offering the possibility of a comp wasn't enough, I was commenting that I don't like comps.

    say no to racism

    Wrong. That may have been true 20 years ago but the law and definitions have chnaged: Definitions 1. For the purposes of this Recommendation, the following definitions shall apply : a) “racism” shall mean the belief that a ground such as race 1 , colour, language, religion, nationality or national or ethnic origin justifies contempt for a person or a group of persons, or the notion of superiority of a person or a group of persons. b) “direct racial discrimination” shall mean any differential treatment based on a ground such as race, colour, language, religion, nationality or national or ethnic origin, which has no objective and reasonable justification. Differential treatment has no objective and reasonable justification if it does not pursue a legitimate aim or if there is not a reasonable relationship of proportionality between the means employed and the aim sought to be realised. c) “indirect racial discrimination” shall mean cases where an apparently neutral factor such as a provision, criterion or practice cannot be as easily complied with by, or disadvantages, persons belonging to a group designated by a ground such as race, colour, language, religion, nationality or national or ethnic origin, unless this factor has an objective and reasonable justification. This latter would be the case if it pursues a legitimate aim and if there is a reasonable relationship of proportionality between the means employed and the aim sought to be realised. Taken from the European Court of Human Rights.

    Mmmm contests................ Where only the top 5% of the playerbase have any chance at all of winning and everybody else can whistle. Sorry Ectar but it's hard to get excited about that.

    Thank you all Gents for restoring my faith in the playerbase

    say no to racism

    That has to be one of the stupidest things anybody has said to me......ever, period, hands down. And I can't even be bothered to converse with you as to why you are so wrong, anybody that can't agree anti Semitism is wrong isn't worth talking to.

    Didn't say I agreed with it, but it's a fact and there is nothing I, you or anybody else can do about it.

    say no to racism

    When I first started playing these games (and still today) I was shocked by the amount of Anti - Jewish abuse, I just didn't expect to see it in this day and age. I myself am not Jewish but still find it extremely offensive. I came across a guy in CBT who had an extremely offensive anti-Jewish name and I did try to report him, support were however not very helpful.

    That is not true. The Marblehead is available on all servers accept the China server through purchases of certain goods from ROG Asus. http://www.asus.com/Microsite/rog/world-of-warships/ But the special mentioned above is for PAX NA, not for us, we had Gamescom.

    The Mighty Jingles

    This is a no brainer for WG, Free advertising aimed right where they need it. The only downside is that they cannot control what the big Youtubers say about the product.

    British Premium Content

    Being that we wont get the Royal Navy for at least a year and a half minimum it would be quite nice if a couple of premiums were put in between now and then for us RN fans. With that in mind what do we think would make a good RN premium? I'd like maybe HMS Exeter but I suspect many would like to see Hood, what do you want? Lets see if we can give em some ideas and encouragement But lets not just dwell on T8 super monsters, lets think low tier too

    Agreed. I'm sure many people here, including me, are not having a go at you personally, I'm sure many of us understand that you must work within the company policy, it's that sometimes WG's way of doing things can be infuriating.

    0.4.1 Public test 3

    I understand what your saying and up to a point it makes sense, specials, patches and unreleased ships can encounter problems and the date may slip, we can all imagine the rage. But we are talking about a finished product here that has been released already, WG have given this product to ordinary players, not supertesters, there is no reason why the date should slip. I wasn't suggesting that you announce that here but rather WG could announce, in the normal way, the date in advance. As far as many here can see, this is about hype and as I stated, it's entirely counter-productive if over used.

    0.4.1 Public test 3

    I know this is above your paygrade and such decisions are not yours and also that you can only say what they tell you can and cannot say on this subject but, and its a huge BUT, can you pass on the frustration this marketing strategy causes amongst us? WG have been doing this for a long time now and many here are completely fed up with it, I am aware that you don't like to give firm dates as the disappointment if those dates slip will be huge but this is a finished and tested ship and you must be well aware of what the release date is by now and I can't see a reason why this close to it's release why that date should slip and why you can't tell the players that information. People are holding on to money maybe, putting off purchasing other things, planning their monthly expenditure and are not thanking WG for the uncertainty. The fact that you already gave it out to people (and not for testing purposes) isn't helping. Hype can be a powerful marketing tool but WG take it too far, the danger being you'll make customers angry and put them off buying when you over-hype something.
