Reported for playing poorly?

Hi all.

 

Don't know if this has been discussed somewhere else, and really don't care. It will never be too much.

 

I loved this game from the 1st battle I made. And just half an hour ago I bought 30 days premium.

 

But then, while reporting a team player who didn't moved an inch during the whole battle, I noticed you can report some one for "playing poorly".

 

I can't accept this. Who get's to decide who plays poorly or not? The enraged kid who just had his ship destroyed? Given my experience with other players in WoT, no thanks!

 

So, with 30 full days of premium account, I'm uninstalling. I really feel disappointed here, just wanted to voice it.

 

And please don't bother flame or even reply to this. I won't be back to read it.

 

Be well, everyone.

Looks at OP's WoT stats, realises why he objects to poor play being reportable. (Even though the report is badly named and is meant to be for disruptive/afk players).

I think that has been translated badly to be honest. I think the context of "playing poorly" is supposed to be stuff like teamkilling, intentionally blocking teammates, that sort of thing. I doubt any game developer would be so utterly stupid to take action against people merely for not being good at their game, that would cost them a lot of players (and revenue).

LoL, who buys 30 days of premium, sees a report button they don't like (in a game they say they adore), and leaves forever?

Might be interesting if our compatriots with other language clients compared their version with the English version. Trouble is at the moment it takes a small amount of thinking about context to understand what the button is meant for.

No, don't look into this, I like the current wording. People who think they might accumulate to many reports for being poor players are scared and might play better or quit. Nothing is lost, all is good.

Dont be like that, that "plays poorly" report has no meaning whatsoever. It's just placebo for ones that are pissed off, since that report ends its life in trash can. Some noobs think that it has effect, but in reality it does nothing, only boosts their ego.

Yea, it's basically - "I need to vent so i will report him".

While the report might be named bad it shouldn't be a reason to uninstall the game. Especially not if you just bought 1 month of premium time.

Well, this is my own toughts but you shouldnt have access to the ``plays poorley´´ command until you have reached higer tiers and are more experienced with the game, its an good idea from WG but executed a bit wrong-ish.

How about you would have to earn 'plays well' compliments before being allowed to give 'plays poorly' reports :popcorn:

WG EU not bothering to pay people to do proper translations? Never seen that before :teethhappy:, but well put.

Lol, an unexpected side effect of a WG mistake? They will have to fix that quick.

Game really worthy of release?

So you were happy enough to report someone else being AFK, but can't accept that someone might report you.......... smacks of double standards

Don't try to bring reason into this. The play's poorly function will lead to stats and over time poor players will have a higher aggregate number of reports. Simple signal to noise. OP doesn't understand this - or apparently make rational decisions so...

Liar what? Mountaineers don't climb the Mount Everest first day of their expedition either. So when someone gets to the top after many weeks, you call him liar. LOL...your logic is so poor.

You said most were uber baddies compared to you but you're just above average? What's poor logic in that :unsure:
