With regard and respect to those of us that have fun playing tanx, I have to say that the privates are becomming an issue with me, and from what I've read, with others. I do understand the concept of playing anonymously, and improving your skill, but for the most part, about 99% of the time, the privates ruin the game- they disrupt your chase and kills, and seem to give me a bad attitude. It would be a great thing if flyordie would enable everyone to start a no-privates op, and that means everyone. If one is given an option to participate as a private, one should also be able to at least, at the outside limits, be able to deny a private play at any time. Just my opinion. I would have no problem joining or subscribing, but there is also an issue with severe lag- I work hard for my money and don't want to be aggravated by spending it so that my computer lags and I get blown to [CONTENT REMOVED] as a result.
