I've seen this tank problem from all sides, in a tanker alt, pro forgegunner,in a jihad jeep, and the guy getting stomped in ambush or dom. From these points of view I can say this, jihad jeeps are way easier to kill tanks than anything ever was in the entirety of my time playing and requires no skill with little to no isk.

I've killed hundreds of tanks with my assualt forge and I still believe they are in a good place, on a tanker alt that I use often it is very hard to kill jihad jeeps and even harder to see them coming. The only slighty effective counter against jihad jeeps is for a rail tank to destroy all supply depots in the match (if its even possible on that map) this discourages this type of behavior but does not prevent it and is hard to counter.

As a guy getting wrecked on ambush or dom I feel the communities pain but it sucks that this community is alienating tankers. This thread has shown me that all anyone wants to do is burn another play style, these comments are mostly without logic, lacking any ideas for improvement and consist of nothing more than childish taunting.

If you really believe jihad jeeps are fair bring out an easy mode invincible tank, after you lose the first two with very little fighting chance you'll go back to your pro scout, your pro logi or your pro assualt and laught it off say he got me (he's good) just remember a lot of tankers only have 1 role.

3 man vehicle, so your calling drop ships, assualt dropships 3 man vehicles? No one like to be the little blaster and I don't know about you but I can't force 2 guys to jumps in my tank. Even if I could if a large blaster won't do the trick why would a small turret fair any better.
