I was out for some months as well (November 2013), returned just to test the HB in 9.0.

As the “Historical” battles are a joke (the only historical relation is the title), I also tried a few random games. In fact, even though I follow FTR and read most of the news, the game itself did not feel any different to state when i left. Ofc. I had too few battles to go into detail, but saying the WoT is a different beast now seems to be an exaggeration.

What WG thinks of a balanced battle is when player skills determines the winner. I must say i have no problem with it. If you’re angry about “why should i play so hard when those noobs in my team will make me lose anyway”. You can’t blame them for being noobs. You might not realized but you might be a noob before.

Did you translate the article using a translation tool or is Russian your first language? Mine happens to be and I disagree with you. The word fell out of use for decades before being reinvented again with a different meaning. The way I’ve heard it being used in conversations did not imply the connotations you mentioned.

I tend to notice people like telling other people to “go die” very frequently for some really fucking petty reasons.

“You play something I dislike in a video game so you deserve to die” sounds like just as solid of logic as “You believe in a different god/set of gods/ a god in the first place so you deserve to die” or “you are from a different country so you deserve to go die”

You can hate artillery players all you wish but reserve “go die” for people who actually deserve it, like people who actually try to enforce the prior lines of logic.

FV 304 DOMINATES on Himmelsdorf, especially if you get a crowd on the hill and your team can hold them. You can drop shells on the idiots all day from 4 squares away and they can’t do a damn thing about it. Hilarious.

Not according to the Russian Wikipedia. The word was originally a derogatory term for Greeks years ago.

The word itself has no special meaning in itself, but I assure you that nobody associates Americans with “small”.
