In patch 1.6 the developers secretly added two-digit numbers to customization. However, the feature itself is hidden and is also missing in the full patch note description. There are 2 fonts to choose from:
• Two-digit number “Two-digit black”
• Two-digit number “Two-digit handwritten”
There are also blocked (as was the case with three-digit numbers) combinations of numbers: 00 14 18 28 64 88 0
wow, I guess this is more important than trying to improve game play, balance , or MM. The MM will be the death of WOT I think.

what is the point of blocking numbers? if i call you 14 or 88 it means something ? thats just ridiculous. 426 is blocked for 3 digit, and its a famous engine size.

Maybe you are unaware of this but certain combinations are tight to historical events/persons. In some countries it can be a punishable offence to show them.

I could be Polish and a Robert Kubica Fan (I am neither) and want to put the 88 on my tank for that reason.

Reference:
00 – Not a (valid) Number
14 – Fourteen words
18 – Letters “A” and “H” (Adolf Hitler) as per their position in the alphabet
28 – Letters “B” and “B” (Blood and Honour/Neo-Nazi circles) as per their position in the alphabet
64 – Tiananmen Square Protests
88 – Letter “H” two times (Hitler salute)
0 – Not a (valid) Number
Some of them are still illegal and/or controversial. To avoid that sort of damage, WG chose to ban them.
