I thought my ideas were so clear. I wanted to make an honest post. No lies whatsoever.

To be fair, PANSY was originally "ISLAM: Muslims for Marriage Equality."

But yeah, apparently an image of Our President and Glorious Caliph Barack HUSSEIN Obama is offensive, but racist Confederate flags and Nazi references are not. :iiam:

more of a PANSY question, but sometimes people ask about PANSY and I respond that it's a clan of 'people who are gay or gay for obama.' hope thats ok?

unfortunately, no one's ever taken the bait.

e: it's fun to derail games and sensitize people to homophobia by pretending to be gay. v :) v.

Eh pretty much at the start of every game I just say "im gay" so that combined with the pansy tag seems to get a lot of people riled up.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

Real answer: PANSY is the casual goon clan that is dedicated to trolling pubbies.

Public answer: PANSY is the Pan-Aryan National Socialist Youth clan, WoT's premiere LGBTQ clan, and is dedicated to the worship of Barack HUSSEIN Obama, our Glorious Muslim Leader, Saviour, and Caliph of the Islamic State In America (ISIA). :jihad:

If people aren't taking the bait, you're not trying hard enough. Remember, I pay out gold when you get pubbies to complain about you to me. :homebrew: Bonus: occasionally when platooning with me you'll see me piss off the shitters and then try to get them to "report me to my commander." That's me. :ssh:

(Regarding ISLAM, I believe it only existed for like a day before our Dear[ly departed] Leader, Wargames, got temp-banned and had to change it to PANSY. I joined a few weeks after that.)

Ha, we can't even get 8 people on at the same time for strongholds. Let alone 15 people in tier 10s for Clan Wars. A lot of us (myself included) seem to not even have tier 10s yet either.

Talking of PANSY I wish i had saved it but one game a number of people on both teams ended up taking the piss out of one pubbie.

He gets killed very early because he is a poo poo pubbie and calls out our team as gay.

I start out with "You say gay like its a bad thing"
He blows up and starts with the fag talk
Someone on his team then kicks in with "You should try sucking another mans cock, it's fun" and goes on from there. By the end of the game he was so mad he couldn't even spell.

Can't remember who was in platoon with me, but a sherman III asked about Pansy being a gay clan and we offered him an invite :sissies: He rammed killed me and I commented on how I liked it and for him to message me later....but he didn't. I never felt more alone :gay:

The best part about PANSY was getting messages from people thanking us for representing LGBT rights.

It's pretty damning for this game's player base that PANSY's minimal level of activism is a breath of fresh air for people.

No, 1600 x 900. Don't know why the screenshots come out like that.

And being a PANSY is awesome, pretending to be a promiscuous homosexual American who loves Justin Bieber is the best fun that can be had in gaming.

My standard response to questions about whether PANSY is a gay clan is "Why? Do you want to suck my cock?". It usually leads to a very active dialogue :angel:

Does this mean even shithead bad tankers like me can join PANSY? Half the fun I rediscovered last night was making remarks about Communism or Wrestlemania in the chat and watching people get into arguments.

For that matter, does this convoluted quest line to give you female tankers provide you with bonuses, other than the mission rewards and the warm glow of earning a tank wife?

Google is completely polluted with mods and forum threads on this topic, but there seems to be some suggestions that the female crew members will more rapidly gain top tier skills.

Ah here we go

Wargaming posted:


If you complete the sets in our first campaign of Personal Missions, you get access to a World of Tanks first: female Crew members!

Specifically, finishing the last mission in each set will give you one female Crew member. Therefore, completing the entire campaign can net you 20 Crew members.

Female Crew members are available to all vehicle nations and types (you're allowed to choose which), and every one that joins your ranks carries the following:

A bunk in the Barracks
100% training
Enough XP to take her first Perk to 100%
Automatic assignment of the "Sisterhood of Steel" Perk

"Sisterhood of Steel" has an identical effect as the "Brothers in Arms" Perk for male Crew: It further improves the qualifications and skills of the entire Crew. However, as it's automatically assigned, it won't be obviously displayed in the Perk list. This also means it requires no extra XP, is continuously active, and therefore can't be reset, either. Lastly, it can only be effective if the entire Crew is female (same with Brothers in Arms and male Crews) -- so the benefits of completing sets and assigning more female Crew ought to be clear!

Sisters of Steel (female BiA) doesn't count as a skill for the purposes of experience calculation, meaning that you will outpace the number of skills on your male crew easily. I believe a full four skill male crew will be overtaken by a female crew who would go from SoS and their free 100% first skill all the way to 100% in their fifth before that male crew could.
With crew exp events this becomes especially awesome. I put four women into my t-44, one triple crew experience weekend later and they're only about 20% of their third skill (fourth if you count SoS) behind my best heavy crew who have been active from KV-1 up to IS-7, moving from tank to tank with gold. They should overtake the heavy crew and complete that skill this weekend because of a 2x crew experience event.

The women crews are amazing.

gently caress MT15 in its ugly face.

First you have to wait 15 battles to even see 2 TDs 1 tier higher than you in the enemy team. Then you also have to do 2k damage (though this part isn't that annoying with a tank above tier 6), carry your team to victory (and they WILL try to lose), flank those loving TDs to kill them without getting insta-murdered, and on top of that, survive.

Otoh TD15 : do 6k damage, also kill 3 tanks. No need to survive, no need to win.

It's loving bullshit, and I loving hope they rework that mission in the incoming patch because otherwise holy poo poo.

Adrenaline lasted a few more games, then the shitshow overpowered me again and I stopped caring. I don't think I can solo this game anymore. I need platoons to make me hate it less. And also so I don't feel like I am drinking alone.

Don't play again. The playerbase is worse and they added a clone of the 183 at the top of a mostly poo poo line so even if you want to get all the tier tens, you either need to play a bunch of poor tanks or free XP to a tier ten that is just unplayably awful.

Though there are a lot of new goons who need T-127 M60 codes if you still have some and they still work.

The T-15 is good, it just gets regular tier 3 matchmaking, and you don't actually do anything to tier 5s. I mean it's a fantastic scout with great camo and good view range and good speed and good profile, but spotting tanks doesn't actually help your team win because pubbies never shoot spotted enemies.
