Every single time you get a report your karma will show you. I think the issue is, the after battle notifications, when it is auto-filling signals and camo and showing you the end game results, I think the notification get's lost in the shuffle. This is something I have brought up before I started here at Weegee and something I am trying to advocate for. We are, I will say, constantly looking at the port UI and attempting to improve it however.

Folks, something to keep in mind. ANYONE can improve their game play. ANYONE can ask for help. And EVERYONE if they're trying to learn should be allowed to. 200 battles or 20,000 battles... it doesn't matter.

no worries, that's what I am here for, sorry it took me a bit to see the post :)

Aloha,

Thanks for @DEWEY_96_ for tagging me. So our Karma system is basically a virtual pat on the back or slap to the wrist. A report=-1 in your karma. Not sure where two reports equals a drop, but that is not true. But the breakdown is below if you're curious. I use Compliments VERY often especially if I see someone actually helping in chat or someone that did especially well. Hopefully this clarifies the system for you a bit, if you have any other questions let me know.

"Once a you've achieved a certain Karma level, your daily limit will also increase:

7 reports and 7 compliments

Well though I totally understand. Where people are coming from in the respect of world wide employee commenting. I feel like that doesn't apply here. Since here on the NA forums there are a few of us that I was talking about. I will NOT dispute that people that work for WeeGee in other regions may use different language or inflection that isn't exactly taken the way they intend. I will say, that those of us at WGA pretty much will give you a straight answer and or answer questions to the fullest we can without breaking NDA. I CAN make the promise to you that all of us that work on the NA community will always work our hardest to ensure a positive experience even when getting blasted on the regular and if any community member see's one of us violating that, they can feel free to PM me with a linky or screen shots and I will take care of it!

As for forum moderation, I know for a fact I have hidden some replies and not messaged the member, not because THEY broke forum ...

Aloha,

If you run the WGcheck and submit a customer support ticket we can better help you. Let me know if you need help doing either.

Well appreciate your feedback, I have been around since second week of alpha testing, not necessarily posting much in the forums but I have definitely been around since then. And have been active in the community that entire time. I think you mistaken what I talk about posts i reply to, if you look through the posts that I HAVE replied to in the past you'll see some are negative, some are positive. It's not that I ignore posts, that is far from it, those of us on the Community Team literally read every post that goes up, why our volunteers are so important, because of the sheer volume of posts.

I would have to do some digging to find staff members that have ever told a player to "p-off" I think. I don't recall ever seeing that before. if I am in error I am sorry.

As for violations of a policy, is that violations that you see are violations? Because every single report that the community places on someone gets reviewed for violations. And that would i...

For me, it all depends on what class of ship I am in. As you know me, you know "Hapa's #1 Rule" I always say, "If you're team lemmings, don't be the one commander attempting to hold back the tide"

Now that being said, this changes depending on the class of ship I am in.

1: If in a DD (and depending on what DD) you can stall the empty flank that is pushing you. But you have to be VERY mindful and have mini-map awareness (radar, other DD's, aircraft, etc etc). But run away, dropping torps at targets coming at you.

2: If a cruiser, turn, run and gun!

3: If BB, TURN AND JOIN the lemming train. I have seen many a BB player say something like, "I'm going the other way to hold the flank" only to see them burn and die in a blaze of not so glory.... If I am in a BB though and I join the lemming train, I will be the one pushing... to at least attempt to encourage the train to push with me....

Aloha,

GG!!!!

Aloha,

Sorry it took me so long to reply to this, 'twas a long weekend! I agree with you, to an extent. I will say I do my best to reply to any questions or players that have comments about mechanics and have you. Assuming that they are written in a fashion that is respectful and fairly articulate.

That being said, I don't mean like a big long message with big words. I mean if someone posts "The game is broken fix it weegee" I will typically move along.

I don't know that I have seen anyone that is a CC, Privateer or WG staff member ever tell anyone on these forums to p-off and sorry if I missed a message or so. And I just want to say that it is not our policy to ever talk to someone in our amazing community in this fashion. It should be understood however that typically someone that has a very negative opinion cannot have that opinion swayed by simple conversation in the forums. Even posting straight up data or giving ones opinion (as...

Aloha,

Could you please put a support ticket in, with the replay and screen shots and a write up of the issue you saw?

Mahalo,

-Hapa

I'll do some digging and get back to you. Understand though, I may not be able to get the answer to you quick, as these updates and adjustments are still in development.

-Hapa

Aloha,

Just my 2 credits, I would prefer Spee, she's pretty swift for her tier, good hydro, the guns actually can chunk quite a bit of damage. You DO have to be careful because it can get blapped pretty easily but I just find her more fun than the PEF.

Aloha,

As stated above, the mods are just awaiting updates is all. And since we at weegee don't own the mods, we have to wait for the modders to update them. Patience shipmate, patience.

Well in O7's case, I nerf y'alls accounts. Jst sayin

Somehow you guys still wreck everything tho.......

-Hapa

100% not arguing that, but a good DD capt will wait till they see your smoke, count out seconds for your hydro or torp so that time is near, or drop so that you have to run and reveal yourself. Not saying it always works, I'm just saying that if someone knows how to counter something, they will.

-Hapa

Aloha,

Though it looks like you had some amazing games there (GG), ever seen what someone that is a good DD main do to Smol's on the other team? The first 2 weeks they were out I had 2 battles where I got 2 Double strikes because of Smol div's that weren't the best. As a DD main I get giddy when I see a Smol on the other team.

TBH, almost any ship can be an "OP" ship if driven by the right people.

Now all that being said, Smol's performance is being watched just like every other ship to see trends for balancing. Case in point Henry IV as someone mentioned above.

As @turbo07 has stated earlier, "I'll tell you once again, benefit of using any kind of hidden mechanics never justifies the risk. So we simply don't use them. "

Furthermore, below is the wiki detailing how our MM actually functions. I have had whole weekends where my W/R has been like 40% and then the next day it is 85%.... it is just how online gaming functions. Sometimes you get potato'd and sometimes you fry the potatoes.....

There isn't some great conspiracy involved folks...
