STEP ONE.
Don't be an idiot, when your team is losing, insulting them and calling them shìtty will just make them preform WORSE, believe it or not.

Encouraging your team to victory, will most likely lead to a victory. Wars are won not by telling your troops that they're a bunch of failures, but by telling them that they are strong and loyal, and can win the battle and the war as an extension.

Basically speaking, don't be an ässhole.
STEP TWO.
Speaking of not being ässholes, let's talk about the kinds of ässhole that exist here on War Thunder.

The spawncamper.
AKA Those ässholes that either fly or drive directly into your spawn, wait for you to spawn, then one-hit your äss before you can even fight back, these guys aren't just ässholes, they're püssies.

The killstealer.
It's all fine and dandy if you and someone else begin engaging someone at roughly the same time and you end up getting credit for the kill, but if you see someone actively engaging someone and they've been doing so for a while, working hard to earn their kill, it's a pretty ässhole move to swoop in and steal the credit for the kill that they would've gotten if the kill system wasn't so broken if they'd killed it themselves.

The tryhard
Blames his team for everything, while not even once thinking that he's the reason victory is so far for his team. Basically speaking; Lacks self analysis.

The Max-Tier
You know the kind of ässhole that joins in a custom battle with jets and max tier heavy tanks (Like the maus) and completely ruins the fun of the battle? That's this guy.

i also moved over to realistic as i dont have problems. Example: arcade battle: how did that guy kill me i saw him before he did. Realistic battle: ok i died, where did he hide, where did he hit and what tank does he have. But i do have one problem. If anyone can answer it i would be thankful. In realistic when my guns jam how do i unjam them?

Well obviously, them camping in the spawn, if anything, just says they're a traitor.. Or an idiot.

I can call a team a noob if they are camping at spawn right?

secret 5th 'Guy', The kind of person who has somehow progressed so far in the game and has tier 3 tanks/planes, but doesn't know how to use them.
