Please bring number decals back

Good job komrad

Why what is that nummer?

I was especially unlucky, as i marked every kill on the planes using number decals - and they removed all without warning. How “funny”!

Yeah it’s quite a substantial chunk of the playerbase getting screwed by a bunch of undesirable people. Really annoying.

Honestly the current systems we’ve got to try and avoid that don’t really work. I’ve seen swastikas and other offensive symbology. If the customization system allows so much freedom (which War Thunder special too), there’s no real way to moderate those blokes.

The “2137” is one of the oldest and top polish meme.

Basically, say “2137” or “JP2GMD” to any pole in the internet and they will laugh it out.

It’s part of polish meme culture about polish pope

Oh. It’s not nice to make fun of a pope that died a few days ago. And as a Catholic I do not understand the pleasure of insulting the Pope. I thought 2137 was like a number for one of their armored divisions or something.

That’s the thing - 90% of all poles are catholic, and majority of them are very strict catholic (myself included). Yet, these memes are flowing non stop for 20 years.

To fully understand how polish people are super strict catholics and yet they meme their own pope you would really have to dive deep into the lore

Pope meme lore drop?

You’re a fellow Catholic? Nice to meet ya comrade.

So you’re actually defending putting fascist symbol number on planes. Implying reporting hate is bad, even. Not surprised given your terrible opinions on game mechanics in general (matchmaker change lmao).

If you think about it, who is actually immature? The edgy teenagers putting shitty and unhistorical decals on their vehicles, or the players reporting them? You trying to insult the latter is massive cope.

I myself disagree with the current situation; numbers should be given to all players (Personally I have no conflict of interest, as I already have them). What is necessary, however, is an efficient and effective system of moderation that allows players to report specific decal placements of hateful players. Particularly, decals which are both hateful and unrealistic should be punished, as they show exclusively hateful intentions. Why is that bad, in your eyes?

Opposing adding number decals because of players reporting hateful arrangements of them, is like opposing the existence of supermarkets because people call the police when they are stolen from (not because of the thieves stealing from them). Or opposing cars because people complain on social media about drunk drivers (not even opposing them because of drunk driving in the first place). It’s absolute stupidity, and the mental gymnastics required to have such a shallow opinion are ridiculous.

Just today i saw 2 tanks with Z on them, and 1488 on swedish tank.

I dont care at all, but given the freedom this will happen every match. The result will be 1000’s of cry babies spammimg reports. Gaijin doesnt want to deal with it.

Personally I wish the internet was like it was 15 years ago instead of a giant hugbox it is now. Reason why no one talks anymore, or we cant have voice chat.

As I said.

It is not about implying reporting is bad, it is never was. But people tend to associate smallest thing with their belief and report it , even if it is fine. But if you got a problem with it then:

Not talking about outright facist symbol and stuff , that gaijin do care about and actually punish people for larping too hard but for the smallest stuff ? Like “Z” symbol for example ? Yeah no bro

Im saying you have to deal with it 100x more than you are now.

Z is what caused us to get them removed, and the 30 sec chat cooldown that was removed recently. Ppl tking or ramming each other and yelling in chat if a ukie flag and Z met in spawn.

Yeah , instead of disabling other people decal , they commit tking and griefing just because the other vehicle have something that they don’t like. We can’t have nice stuff because of certain people

Same arguement for chat and refusing to mute people in most recent games, it will go nowhere, and devs always take the side of crybabies or just nuke the ability to communicate at all.

I’ve reported a fair share of these bozos, sparingly and only when extreme, continued hate is displayed. And yet I haven’t received any notifications of action being taken on my reports.

Matter of fact, I have only received 1 notification of action being taken on my reports, ever since this notification thing was implemented more than half a year ago in Sept 2024. Despite having reports in the double digits on hate speech in general since then (Yes, this is how prevalent it is). It’s unknown to me as to whether this is due to the notification system being broken, not notifying in case of minor punishment, or action simply not being taken. But the result is clear: hate and foul speech is prevalent in chat.
Top tier Air RB chat is probably the worst in terms of it.

I know that as a staff member, you (both necessarily and naturally) tend towards a positive view of the game. That contrasts heavily with what many players see, and many particularly think the strength of WT moderation is lacking.

The thing is that the “Z” symbol is banned in some countries, just like the Swastika. Thus, they’ve got the same treatment from Gaijin…

Pretty sure no , they don’t get the same treatment because X country ban A. Gaijin could not give half a fig about those. What matter is what people do when they see X in a battle. Not even talking about what the thing associate with , the fact that they went out of their way to teamkill and grief other people , leading to the situation escalate , gaijin would not want to do that. For swastika that is not even in the game and you will be damn sure that gaijin will punish people who make that symbol. The “Z” case in this situation does not hold the same weight as the latter.
