[...] okay, I must admit I’ve been thinking about this for a very, very long time. Why isn’t there a real Q&A thread for EU/US people, apart from that thing Quasar posts, which is slow, clumsy and has wrong answers on occasion. [...]

lol at EU WG staff, powertripping idiots with double standarts and bum-mates, some even believe they are devs because modertor status is equal to setting up rules for the game aswell… “facewall” when a facepalm just isnt enough

There’s that one little difference, where this guy is sort of the “community leader” and stuff, and he’s supposed to know stuff like this – or at least be able to clarify it for himself. When a PR-kinda guy gets this stuff wrong – it just proves how full of shit the relations are. The only time i can remember when my community “heads” got their sruff wrong was when serb and storm said the exact opposite stuff regarding the SP and the armor nerf…

I don’t know what this guy’s real job is, but it’s obvious PR (answering player questions) is a part of it (he’s not doing it out of kindness of his heart, he gets paid for that). If he does his job wrong, he gets called on it, as simple as that. Pulling answers out of your ass = bad job.

Well i’m very tired of their shit. And im at the end of my tether… Really why they can’t hire people WHO ACTUALLY CARES about entire community. For an example i’ve been translating for a very long time “leaks” from your blog Silent Stalker into Polish. And nobody gives a single fuck about it. I know more about game mechanics, account protection and of course politeness than 90% of those “Polish Community Managers”. I bet 50% of them have boobs and another 50% are just nerds playing LoL.

I think you should not focus too much on “internal” information.
I’m working in international company (150k ++ employees) , and his answers can be completely true.

Different branches and divisions don’t ultimately need to share same information between each other.
Even if they do, responsible person doesn’t need to be part of email chain etc..

I don’t think they (WG) have some central knowledge base, where are all the info stored/published.
Therefore the misleading answers. (which can be true for specific part of WG team.)
Somebody can be actually working on a change, without anybody else is knowing about it, except direct manager for example :-)

Plus, lately I was checking your blogs and answers etc. and Many times there are different answers from same person on same question…
For me it seems like some kind of folklore of WG to give misleading answers, so the community can speak about upcoming changes :-)

Well they gave the job to the French folks, who largely share the general approach with Spanish folks – if it was to be done properly, it should have been given to the Germans, but SerB, following his idol Stalin, does not deal with Germans anymore :) Or to the British, who actually have some serious contributors, like The Challenger. BTW I’m none of those so this is more or less an unbiased opinion.

BTW not to be picky but the last special they posted:
http://worldoftanks.eu/en/news/44/random-draw-m41/

has the wrong dates:
from 27th May 07:10 CEST (GMT +2) until 3rd June 07:00 CEST,

and even though people mentioned it in the comments it didn’t change yet.
So either all of EU staff is on a massive vacation or they all got fired or they just don’t give a damn.
