lol ok buddy

I am going to ignore your attempt at a veiled ad hominem attack and my position on this issue inflation as based on a couple things.

Inflation benefits the owners at the top. In a competitive DI right now you probably need $15-20 million. The rich are only going to get richer. This promotes tanking as the only viable method of not only getting up to DI but competing and winning a title. As inflation increases the gap between a new user and veterans is only going to increase.

Inflation also negatively impacts the mid division and low level user. There are players under 100 TSP that are currently going for 2-3 million on the TL.

I am all for any measure that takes money out of the BB Economy. Increasing the length of FA auction would help do this. I would even say lets move FA auctions to 7 days. I would be for decreasing over time the DI TV contract and severely punishing attendance revenue on tanking teams.

If you play the market smart, your buying power will always go up. Buying at 25 and selling at 30 is not smart. If I buy a player low during the offseason and sell the player high before the playoffs next season, at the bare minimum I would be able to buy a similar player low in the next offseason to continue the cycle. More likely I turn a good profit since I bought low and sold high, which increases my buying power. Also, this does not consider the other sources of income I have generated over the course of the season.

So as player prices increase, it increases the time needed for new players to compete especially when other income besides player value are not increasing as well.

I pretty much disagree with everything you said and I am not going waste my time repeating myself. The USA has four divisions now and all you are saying is that those new users in bot filled DIV can afford players to compete with bots but as soon as you move up to DIII, the players are going for millions of dollars. That is not ok.

Training is definitely a moneymaker, but if you are some new team the learning curve to train properly is so high. It is going to take you a significant amount of time (real life years) to understand all the nuances of training, what players sell the best, and how to actually exploit the market from your position.
