This thread was interesting, but I think it should be close now.

Well i agree but i'll leave it open if any further discussions about the actual topic still is there to be said beyond the latest amusement and rant. So to all involved including me, enough is enough. Lets leave it were it's at.


I disagree. I started this thread so people could voice their opinions on the state of this great game. While I disagree with a lot of what Mr Glass has to say he is entitled to voice his opinions...shy of personal attacks of course. However, he's not alone in the personal attacks.

A lot of what he has discussed is still on topic. I would hope this thread remains open and civil.

Is BB dying a slow death? (the title question to the thread)
Answer: yes

So is their a thread to show how this will be fixed then if not here?

I believe Mr. Glass was inferring to the point of literally hundreds of posts and literally thousands of GMs have quit while this thread exists. I personally thought that the dip petered out around 28k and hung around for along time. Now 23k looms closer.

With GMs like Mr. Glass i see passion which shows deep caring for this game and i share many of his views and yes I'm just as frustrated.

I have been here since season 3 and still striving to break into the "hegemony"of the upper leauges (I'm a winner but not a champion).

We need solutions applied ,not affirmation of "if" at this point.
Close the thread. ... it is as pointless as an American Congressional hearing.

May you never be forum blockaded.

You can cuss people out and they still respond to you. May out always be that way for you.

And again to everyone else. ....I was not speaking rhetorically. ..I want. .. like others want to know can this be fixed?

If so. .. when?

The powers that be know their is a problem. ... how about some transparentcy on this matter that supersedes all others.

You're playing since season 3, and still haven't finished your arena?

And what about training? You had enough time to train a beastly franchise player, and build your team around him..

On the one hand, that could be a valid point. On the other, despite being out of III.5 for four seasons now, I still have trepidation if I see the last name Khan on an opponent because BarryS' franchise player was such a challenging player for the six seasons I got to face him.

So in very polite terms if we don't like what is going on with the direction of the game to leave?

Easy to say. ... harder to do.
You see being emotionally invested into this game since 2008 that is simply not going to happen.
With Moderator answers like that. .....
This game will die.
It is truly unfortunate that the forum guardians have no answers to this very serious issue. .. it shows that people care, and for you to respond that is you don't like the game to leave? ?

I love this game that is why I'm still here and will probably be here when this game gives is last heartbeat.
Your response was well thought of yet vague by design. Your response was not comforting at all.

Answers that bring hope. .. not very polite brush offs are needed.

@Someone mention about my arena. .... it's fine. .. it has handled a perennial contender since season 12. And contending yet again right now.

I'm also not sure why discussing the history and current being of a team has a big importance in that thread. We kinda succeeded in stopping to do that about Glass' team, no need to start with another user team.

BBs see like everyone else that the user numbers are slowly decreasing, they don't put their head in the ground. It doesn't mean it's easy to solve things whatever people could think. Many IRL problems also are currently searching for an answer, but even with money and people ressources, it's difficult.

There has been a lot of discussions here and we can see that even amongst users there is no agreement on many topics and solution. BBs agree that an app would be a really good thing and are searching for a way to have one which doesn't mean it will happen soon and still we also had some users saying it wasn't necessary to make one.

BB is now 7 years old. When someone is starting, we tell him that it's not a sprint, but a marathon. I think that any old timer here knows that this is also how BB evolves, slowly but in the right direction. If it's too slow for some here, the solution is quite simple. I and the BBs (and most of you) don't want to see more people leave, but if the way Buzzerbeater is working behind the scenes is not the way you wished, it is unlikely to change.
