Why did I get protection for killing an ally?

Huh?

As I understood it, I hit him with a shell that ricocheted off the ground, but it flew past him

This one took me a while to understand, I wont lie lmao I still have no idea what happened tho hahaha

View from your own POV and you’ll see one of your rounds hit him.
I’ve had this happen to me. .50 cal bounced off a Puma and hit a friendly at random.

Like 700 years ago when the game released and KV-2 was new to the game I shot at Tiger H at an angle, the shot bounced and killed the tank that was passing next to him at that moment, I was laughing for like 3 days straight

The video shows that the shell flew past him.

The server hamster said otherwise. Server hamsters are always right, even when they are wrong.

Is that server replay or client replay?
Client replay can be a bit odd with things like that at times so it’s almost always better to view the server replay.

Same happend to this guy
