I can almost guarantee that giving these types of benefits to supporter users would have a greatly negative effect on the number of non-supporters that are actively playing the game.

Sure some of them would buy supporter for these benefits but I would almost guarantee you that a far greater number would quit playing altogether because of the competitive disadvantage that would exist. And this game needs more active participants, not less.

It's completely ridiculous. Either the game is free or it is not. In this case it is free, and you get some nice "extra" stuff if you buy supporter. Some of it is just for decoration, some is quite useful (like bookmarking players and saving TL searches). If you're going to give a competitive advantage just for those who pay, then next week instead of 50000 managers you will have 500

It happened. I used to play a soccer game, sundayleague, in which you could compete without the need of buying. When the game became so money-dependant, became uninteresting. Don't know if it still exists...

Would be good if you got something special if you purchased Buzzerbeater. ie would be good if you could benefit with one of these ideas.
1.once purchased receive cash for team improvements eg-1million dollars
2.added bonuses on training
3.increase of season ticket holders
4.more merch income.
5.extra scouting points for draft
6.upgrade on coachng staff
7. discounts on staff salaries

well these are a few ideas

my point is I would be happy to purchase BB again if it would improve my team it doesnt do that at the moment. Adding more incentives would get more people buying it.



I am actually thinking that this is a joke

And maybe I would leave the game entirely as a result.



I would. I've played games where paying gave an advantage and even when I payed I was annoyed by it.
I became a supporter here because I love the game and the fact that competitively you get no boost from paying is one of the reasons I love it.

You get the greatest basketball online manager, if you decide to buy BuzzerBeater and they accept your offer. If that is not special enough, ask them to include Edju's shorts in the deal. :-)

Although, I don't think that "I own buzzerbeater.com" could be a great pick up line... =-)

That's a major fail for Charles right there. Trying that in Japan, a nation with more than 120 million people and 37 active users.

I hate playing games where you get extra stuff when you pay something. You either have to make it a pay game or a free game. Paying for an advantage will cause 95% of the people to leave and we need more players to make this gme even better, not less.

I have only been playing for a little more than a season now and I mainly subscribed as a way to support the staff. I also like the extra statistics and such that I have access to although I am a little uncertain about the validity of some of the player rankings that you get from being a subscriber.
