I consider posting in a thread around a specific purpose that was well thought out something like "lol you're joking" to be trolling. But yeah, you be you. It's pretty obvious this actually does matter to you since you apparently just have to get the last word in at all costs, in a thread that wasn't about you and that I specifically requested you avoid posting in after your first derailment attempt.

Like that? I've also uninstalled quite some times. But until recently, I always had this lingering hope that WG would fix the underlying issues. But you can only see them double down on them so many times before even that hope disappears. Continuing the LotR theme:

Not particularly, no, especially given you trolled even in this very thread.

You are one of the largest forum trolls here. Please kindly exit this thread and never return, thanks.

I'm glad I showed you the light on ops though ;) Apparently the thread from some years ago about the awesomeness of Narai + flags + 200% is gone. Alas, I still have our PM where you were excited as a result Honestly, I have something like 8 months more premium time and 16k or so doubloons still. But I've spent so long with sunk cost fallacy already.

Imagine picking a name which is trollish and then getting reported for it. I can't believe it would happen!

It always amuses me when people post screenshots nowadays after a line release and there are 3 or 4 of the new ship on each team as it's special. World of Derpitz was where it was at. When each high tier game had 7-8 Tirpitzes on them.. you know it my friend!

Honestly, I think the biggest casualty in all the mess of the last few years is operations. There were so many ops I loved playing and some of the most fun I had in WoWS was from playing ops. I'm sad that we only ever started to try 3-man Narai right before they reeworked it yet again too. They were consistently some of the most fun I had in the game, all coming to an abrupt end at the CV rework. It's important to realize it's not just me. I am an active forum contributor. I post a lot here, I'm recognizable. Folks here love to hate me. Or something. People love my opinions on CVs, let me tell ya. Anyways, it's really important to realize for every recognizable 60% player such as myself who happens to post on the forums regularly about leaving, there are many, many more who have left silently. Frankly, I'm just one dude, the game won't miss me much at all (though, I like to think the forums will ). Players come and go. But as more and more good players quit, eventually there won't be any left. Discussing when the game will die entirely is a regularly occurring conversation amongst folks at this point.

Yup. Had the art department not been so killer I never would have stuck around. Honestly, most of the top players that leave do so silently. I happen to be a far too active poster here for my own good which is why I'm bothering to say anything. Many top clans have already been decimated by the last few year of changes. There's a natural progression in all games, but in my circles it certainly seems like more people are leaving the game rather than becoming excited about new content. The nice part about playing with a similar group of people for years is you end up building community and just catching up. A lot of the guys I've played with, we don't even play boats anymore and would just chat about life and other hobbies. @TheGreatBlasto that duet is one of the most amazing pieces of music ever :)

I got my enjoyment out of the game, that much is for sure.

Honestly, of all the things I find annoying about the game, this is a minor nuisance and one I recognize as a necessary evil for WG to be a profitable company. There are far more insidious problems than clueless whales. Those represent a fairly small percentage of the overall population of the game.

If you do your homework, why do you consistently disagree with people who actually did and do choose ship compositions for the typhoon/hurricane meta about why they did so?

Thank you for your positive and thoughtful contribution.

I think in this analogy, we are the frogs.

I am a little confused why you are speaking so authoritatively on behalf of why the top league meta ended up the way it did, given you self admittedly weren't in them.
