Any WG staff kind enough to explain who are using these accounts, what are they doing and is divisioning two supertesting ships against NDA or something?

Flamu and Fara have put up videos on Youtube where they were clearly using such accounts. Don't think it is against NDA to division when supertesting ships though.

IIRC quite a while ago when Black was still being tested, three STs divisioned triple Black which led to a community outcry. After that WG seem to have implimented a new rule which forbid multiple ST ships in a division. Clearly divisioning ST ships with normal ships is okay, but multiple ST ships in a division? AFAIK that is against the rules, at least for supertesters Edited June 3, 2018 by HMS_Swiftsure_08 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1,408 AntifoulAwl ∞ Alpha Tester 2,289 posts 8,802 battles Report post #6 Posted June 3, 2018 Testing. That's the key word. How do you find out if a certain action is going to be game breaking without actually testing it? Better for the testers to find out now and then take steps, rather than release the ships to the public and have everyone divvying them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But can any WG staff answer me, is divisioning two Stalingrads against the rules set for these CCs? Edited June 3, 2018 by HMS_Swiftsure_08 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm?Did they violate the ST Code ? It's more a clarification around the rules for them, normally, ST'ers cannot division with more than one test ship - but in this instance there special accounts and may have special rules around them. So i'm simply clarifying with those in the know. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
