I think its a worthy title considering your past run-ins with everyone else :-) Jk...
I get what the OP is saying though - But he's kinda lumping serveral pet peeves in one. Why black charred remains? Good point, it would be nice to have blown out tanks as they are, mangled, on fire, parts blown open or off, but NOT black - Some tanks have this a bit better than others, others.. MOST don't.
Can they stay longer - Will be nice, even Lobo agrees on that fact - WIll it, probably not, sadly - Too much lag-possibility, like Mudra said.
Can tanks be hit, move a while and then just stop and die quitely - DOn't think the engine will allow moving a while unless you apply a complex health system as per my suggestions on advancd health in some long-since dead thread. Will the devs do this, probably not - Why? Because they've said they wont before - Again, why Mudra is answering so
Can tanks NOT blow up in their fancy way. Personally, I'd say... Why would you want to do that?! FH2 IS a balance between realism and fun so since that explosion IS realistic in some instances, it stands in to represent all explosions since, A, you cannot have variants in explosion - BF2 engine doesn't permit random - And B, because replacing this with a tank simply smoking will be depressing and not satisfactory to any tanker or AT gunner who manages to blow a tank up (Think of an 88 hitting a PZII, how depressing is that!) and C, it will be exploited by those with.. nefarious intentions, to deceive others that they've been killed when they start smoking, only to start moving thier turret onces more for a surprise shot.
Mudra was actually pretty polite with his responses - Cold, brief (There's a better word I can't find here), but polite althrough... What stings is not having your requests met the way you would want. I would have said, use the search, but I smile when veterans say this, since it would have made sense on the FF forums, but many of these suggestions ARE infact brand new on Warumdarum.de. Like Mudra, we vets have seen almost all the questions that can be asked so oiur responses tend to be conclusive. Sorry. We just know what the devs will say and don't need a thread to be 5-pages of discussion already-answered stuff before the devs come in and say the predictable answer.
Sure some of us have a more sympathetic way of going about our answers, and a wistful wish that it would be possible, but we've heard it all before. If a fresh suggestion was to surface, trust us, we'd be the first to say 'hey, what a lovely idea'... but till then, these answers should suffice
