It's called a Ducky-tank for a reason.

Ah, now I see it. Ducks aren't normally blue though. Maybe if they go in freezing cold water then they might.

What you are? Pro, common known on the forums. And a daredevil for playing the ARL.
Praise you mate (Y)

Why do you think you can say that about your own person? It is only your experience.. Did u ask pp if they think you are more mature? That question alone is the opposite..  Teenagers think often they know how this world is working.

Bad players a plenty. Most of them are lemmings who cannot think for themselves and have no clue about such high level intellectual exercises such as teamplay and support.

Sorry you had a lousy experience but look on the bright side, you know you did a good job and played well, the reason you lost was that the rest didnt.

Funny how you mentioned lemmings and their inability to do "teamplay"

Actually that is quite wrong. They have TOO MUCH ability to do teamplay, sticking with their mates and supporting them, but they are just not doing it right. In this game the team needs to be evenly spread, and if they detect any major offensive on one of the flanks, the team shoul relocate and respond to the attack, but lemmings don't thing, they just go to their teammates and it dosent matter where their teammates go.

I'd rather think of the good players as greedy bastards who, upon seeing their whole team rushing all on one flank, think to themselves: Hey, that flank is all open, perhaps i should go there, kill a bunch a noobs and get all the glory! THEN, if I die, I can safely blame my team, and i will be right! Why not?

Congrats saml6131.

Another well played game by player who knows how to use skills. I wouldn't care about lemmings. I died 5 times today after taking in average 4-5 frags in every game. Scenario similar. No insults though. I was lucky. In one of these games with IS6 I killed Tiger2, TigerP, T20 and Loewe. So it was quite obvious that at the end of this lost of course game one of my partners called me golden looser. Which I probably am because not only i have premium IS6 but also I managed to kill 4 opponents which as everybody know you can do in premium tank only by shooting with gold. At least my lucky guess is that that was the way of thinking of this guy.
I decided not to explain that I am not using gold. It is not necessary for me.

Anyway

One more time congrats and +1 from me for very GG

I'd come to the forum and write a long ass post about it which I could be certain that none of those players will ever read.





Oh, hang on, no I wouldn't.  I'd have ignored them, made as much as I could out of the rest of the battle then moved on to the next.

I had a battle like this before in my T20- so I assume we are similar?

It was an encounter battle on Steppes, anyway once my computer finally loads the game I get there and find all the lemmings rushing off to the cap. I proceed to watch our other flank whilst calling for help. I get it- but only from a stock Panzer 4 (this was a tier 8 battle) and initially an AMX 13 75 (who later ran away).

So we fight off the attackers there, but the Panzer died. But this point in time the lemmings trying to cap are failing badly, so I quicken my pace and take out another tank or two and rush into their spawn point.

I find their arty, but by this time I am the only guy left (apart from a sleeping Grille) against an IS-3 and a VK3601H, who are capped. This was when the insults started. Despite the fact I had 5 kills, names were flying everywhere- camper noob, camper, noob, noob camper and the like. I went to reset the cap and nearly killed the IS-3 (he had 17hp...) before I got killed. And then insults flew some more. The artillery continued his nap, and let them cap.

You did the best you could do, and that's all should be expected of you.  You can walk from that battle with your head held high knowing you did what you could and stopped the enemy push. The fact your team mates were pushing without support or visibility is out of your control. If they rage then let them rage. Just ignore them and go into your next battle as you'll likely never game with them again.

Reading his post and "assuming" it is true, I would say that it wasn't a skilled enemy but unskilled team that resulted in the situation described.

As for the OP, mate there are simply hopeless players out there who literally have no idea of how to play...so in order to compensate for that, they throw insults around. Just keep doing what you are doping, there are some of us out there that can read a mini-map and help...just that we are a rare breed.
