Wargaming EU has basically absolutely no policy regarding illegal mods. They claim to care about it, by stating that each individual player has to judge whether or not a specific mod gives them an advantage towards other players. And if a mod does that, then it can be considered illegal. The thing is though, everyone judges differently. For some people, every mod gives you some sort of advantage. And for others, no mod seems to give them any advantages. Thus, making this "policy" completely void in the overall picture. That being said, the reload mods use really basic assumptions about the reload times. They don't account for things that can influence a reload, such as crew-status, equipment and/or consumables. Therefore, the mod is really only an estimation of the very basic reload and not 100% accurate at all (it may even put you at a disadvantage, if the actual reload is significantly lower than what the mod predicts). And lastly, as Quaksen already stated, the mods you use are only visible to your person (unless you're making a recording of it and publish it or you're streaming it in the first place). When someone watches the same replay file on a different computer, they will see the vanilla version or anything modified by their own mods on their computer.

The first part of your complaint is answered by Quaksen and the second part I'll try to cover. If by "SPF" you mean "FPS" or Frames Per Second, then it's either your PC that's causing it (it could be that your PC can't handle Wargaming's adjustment to the game) or some mod(s) may have changed and demands more resources since 9.14. That are the "ideal" cases anyway and assumes that there is nothing faulty on your system and you're not using completely outdated hardware/software. When you're normally playing, you could try to monitor your hardware and see if anything is working at their limits (CPU/GPU/RAM specifically). If something is operating at 90-100% load or is getting way too hot (depends on the particular hardware), then that's likely the issue. You can also try to see what your FPS is using no mods at all. You could run WoT through Steam and have the FPS displayed (substituting mods that let you know your FPS in-game), in order to see if much has changed. If you don't use Steam and/or have multiple displays, then you can use other tools for that as well (like CAM, from NZXT). Another thing you can take a look at are the WoT in-game settings, specifically the graphics settings. When I had worse hardware, I really only used 3 settings there, that I maxed out, and put the rest on low/off. I also didn't use the Advanced graphics. Maybe you can (re-)adjust some things there and bring back your FPS. Essentially, check if your system and settings are fine, along with how the game runs in vanilla and your usual mod-selection.

Yes Aslain, Thank you for your selfless devotion to our gaming pleasure! It's got to be frustrating for you when you have so many of us griping at you about mods you aren't even responsible for, not to mention Wargaming release updates on a fast basis... Thanks again and don't give up the ship!
