This has been happening more an more lately.  The round has essentially ended and a team member shoots you before the match has officially ended due to the delay in the counter.  An example, I was playing my "warm up" tank, the T-127, and played it like the little killer that it is ending the game with seven kills, several damaged and several spotted.  After helping to kill the last guy remaining on the opposing team and thinking this was a pretty good and fun game, I was killed by a team mate with one shot (I was pretty beat up by the end of the game, naturally).  

So, In the end, I carry most of the "team" for most of the match only to be killed by some guy who did nothing the whole game, except take one shot one me before the match officially ended.  Here were the results:


I don't care about the compensation, it is more about poor "winners" who choose to shoot or kill a team mate at the end of the match knowing they won't/can't be reported.  I propose that there is an instant one-day suspension for those who choose to take the shot on a team mate at the end of the game.  There is no excuse.  It has happened to me in a few games now, although it is infrequent, this example is just my latest.

Edit:  I was in the front of the attack, so it wasn't like I was "kill stealing", which I don't believe in.

He is auto reported for team damage by the game itself, no need to report him
Just FYI

Duly noted on how to troll people.

I had 15 HP left when he took the shot and I wasn't close to either flag, so I doubt he got nailed for more than an "accidental" team kill.  The system won't do anything to him as it stands now, which is the basis of my proposal.

I also think that the 95 compensation is like a huge slap in the face. Sad really sad.

The compensation isn't really my issue, it's the fact that the guy can still hit Battle again today (or even in the future) for such a blatant act.  Unfortunately, I don't have replays turned on so I have no idea who it was.  I was too shocked to see the in-game message on who killed me when it happened, so it was my fault for missing it.

When you go ruts and rampage at the start of a round, you turn blue really easy - get reported by your whole team, and receive an instant day off tanks.
Getting one shot into one friendly after nailing a few reds tanks is not going to result in anything...

To bad they don't or should say can't have a referee. With a account suspension for jokers like this.

That system is broken.

"Working as intended" means, "$$ is more important than customer satisfaction"

Meh, idiots are everywhere, what're ye gonna do.

I wasn't blue nor was the guy who shot me, and as far as I know no one was reported.  Unfortunately it was in the final seconds of the game or he would have been reported.

Unfortunately, I get to eat it for being TK'd for no reason, I suppose.  There is a system in place, it just isn't able to get these guys due to lack of programming experience I guess.

You can still send the replay and a griefing report in to support. Make sure you emphasize that the offender was trying to get around the automated system by griefing you at the very END of the game.
