We get lots of hate mail for a variety of normal play.  It is hilarious.  We love getting the hate mail.  Almost all of it is because the other player is a moron.  When I do something stupid, I will acknowledge if called Noob and the such.  A good one the other night, on South Coast, my buddy in his polish tier 9 heavy goes Beach to corner with another medium (not where pond is, I was middle spotting) and rounds corner and shoots Arty, while battling several tanks.  Arty messaged him and called him a "hiding coward".

There always seems to be an element of hypocrisy in hate mail.

As I've said before, my Obj 268 has a major troll gun. Some games it's fine, others I can not pen even an VIII broadside for the entire game. Recently I've received 2 different hate mails from team mates for I did no damage in either game.

I responded to them to check how many shells I fired, and how many penned. Several fired - 0 pens. I try to explain that this is the most trolly tank I have when it comes to being able to damage anything.

One guy understood, for he's played them.

The other was the first guy dead on our team in a T57, and has never once tried playing a turretless Russian TD. So he has no clue nor understanding of how difficult these tanks can be. Doing no damage, I still almost did as much as he did.

I got hate mail from one of my so called team members (you know who you are) for ruining the game for the other 29 players because I did well in the game, 7 kills in my Absolution in a tier 6 match. I'm not supposed to kill as may enemy players as I can, when did the rules change? I sent one back and told him stop being a cry baby.

 

you monster 7 kills how are we supposed to lose when you do that

Most teams will find a way.

An FV304 thought it would be a good idea to immediately rush the center on Cliff. I absolutely ripped him up in my Leopard, not even 15 seconds into the match. He messaged me, called me a “MUNT”....

The best hate mail comes from salty unicorns.  They hate it when scrubs like me outplay them .

Jagtig 88 player sent me fan mail saying it was my fault we almost lost.

It was because I ran away to go fight elsewhere on the map rather than helping him fight a obj257 and a T95e2. I was in a T-VI-100 (the Russian Tiger) and had no chance vs a obj257 on that terrain.

Nevermind the fact I came top of the board, later killed that obj257 in a more favourable encounter and we won.

I don't know the situation obviously, but that response is not always valid. Certain players are useless to the team and make a lot of damage anyway.

Almost all of the time I get stuff such as "Cheater, reported" or "Reported to Microsoft, enjoy your ban", the usual stuff. However, there was one a while ago where I proceeded to take on an AT7 in my Centurion I, we were the last alive on each team. I managed to get around him and stick myself to his side and destroyed him. He sent me a message saying "I hope you die in a F*****g hole you P***k". I didn't bother replying, I got the entertainment I needed for the day.

I already explained the situation, I was in a tier 7 heavy and ran from a tier 9 heavy and tier 8 medium. My team mate in his tier 8 TD didn't retreat and died. Then messaged me saying it was my fault.

 

There was zero chance of us killing the two. I recognized that and retreated. We went on to win, I even killed the tier 9 heavy I ran from later in the match in a different part of the map. 

 

Team mate in tier 8 TD was salty I left him to his fate.

I wasn't commenting on the situation, just the response.

[Pit Friend]

I managed got frame my friend to get hate mail. We were both driving the same Light tanks. He went to the far side of the map while I went to the center where I found a red Light driving towards our base and artillery. I started chasing it but I could not hit the thing despite being right behind it because reasons. It killed our arty and I finally hit the thing, stopping it cold and then killing it. A few seconds later my friend got a message from the arty player:

 

”you suck”

 

My friend was very confused.

Best hate mail i got was from a player on my own team. I got 7 kills with the Grille (arty) and all were spotted by one player. Sent him a message after the game - great spotting. Got a message back in Russian. I wrote it down and found a translation website. He put, We Russians dont need any help, we are the best. Go drown in a river.

Today I got a fun one from a guy in a Charioteer that I killed:

 No way u can get to tier 10 in 20 days of playing hacker

 

I have clearly been playing for more than 20 days. It probably just seems like 20 days due to my lack of skill, lol. Oh well, fun times.

 

Also funny was that I was in a tier 9 tank at the time.

[NorrisHeadThing]

I got told to 'uninstall Wot please' from a player with 10k games 66%W/R and over 3 K/D the other day

Admittedly I did terrible in the game at Lake ville in my T110E3 South Spawn heading to the village, got lit up b4 reaching the mounds by 2 marauding lights and then decimated by a FV4005 with a follow up shot from a T110E4
I did reply as they were obviously a massive bell end

I got called a wallet warrior one time while in my T34 after destroying someone posted up out in the open. Checked his stats, his most played tank was the T34…

 

I put the wallet warrior flag on my minuteman after being called one , and sent a message back calling him a hypocrite, as he had one and a few other op premiums.

I think those tanks (along with Deathstars) should have a 5% chance of a shell accidentally detonating in the breach and setting off the ammo rack, and the resulting explosion splash-damaging any nearby teammates. Maybe that would stop everybody and their brother from grinding that line.
