The World of Tanks forum had more than its fair share of players who'd scream cheat at the slightest thing. It didn't seem to matter how many times it was pointed out that the pretty much all the calculations were done server side. Was there a mod. that removed foliage, yes there was but all the spotting calculations were done by the server so it doesn't really help.

The bigger one though was the game was rigged against them because they had such uber tenk skillz.

If they have such "uber tenk skillz" then why were they getting their asses kicked?  :P

The normal excuse was that their team (it's a 15 vs. 15 format no respawns) was deliberately made 'bad' compared to the enemy team. The fact that if global stats are rigged then how do you tell a bad player from a good one and the implication is that the other twenty nine players are just there to target one individual was lost on them.
 Even when someone analysed thousand of replays looking at team composition showing that it was what you'd expect if skill wasn't taken into account didn't matter for 'reasons'.
 Other excuses, the RNG was rigged against them, everyone else was using cheat mod's, it's impossible to lose ten games in a row and good players were only good as they spent money.

Why would you trust World of Tanks? That's such a low caliber game on the scale of return for money. It's like a casting call out to all the suckers to come compost in the Dark Carnival. I wouldn't trust them for a minute. The whole enterprise is extremely shady and most likely a front of the darkweb.
