intesting posts here. but When I saved up cash in D4 for 2 seasons I'll boost my roster big time!

I know this is a way back in the thread, but I feel a need to mention this. Tough, I'm going to try to be polite as possible, but posts like this are why some people consider your posts somewhat annoying. I know you care about your team, just as I care about mine, but the difference is you don't see me bringing my team up in threads all over the forums. It's because other people don't really care about my team, they care about their own. Same with your team. While I think it's great how enthusiastic you are about your team, we don't really need to read about them all the time. That's what your newspaper is for, and this kind of stuff is probably better suited there. :)

totally agree back then training was really important now i think it is more for fun than to really help u win

a team training having to run young guys 48+ having to strictly follow depth chart & in the end having a player worth peanuts vs a team that can just run its best oster every game & have all in great gs each week by training gs

which is more of a challenge & more fun = the 1st

which will win more = the 2nd

the game is encouraging a more simplistic model of success that sucks the fun out of the game

I agree with you on this, but I think there are some users, probably a large amount, that would think the 2nd would be "more fun". It depends on your POV. I would like something that makes training a more feasible pursuit, though.

ah I see now, thanks for the advice.............

y but think of the numbers

if 0 d1 teams train that is 16 teams not training

but if 1/2 d3 teams can still train cause it is easy for them & they can make a profit that is 16 x 8 = 128 a lot more significant than the top div teams

& also what is happening with the pathetic out of control flood of free agent is weaker trainees like allstars dont get trained anymore but 18yo MVP+ guys still sell for far more than they will be worth once they r trained god knows why & they still get great training

perrenial allstars are still a good investment, but yeah, all-star- is getting undervalued. Let's see in my draft I drafted a 2k C 6'9'' James Boyle, who was really really bad but I decided to train him with Coleman to see what happens and then he gets injured, when he got injured I sacked him and got a steal in Delong. Only all stars+ with 3k+ salary get trained also trainees on new teams get trained too anyone above allstar potential is good start for a new team. but now since your right FAs are flooding the TL the number of all stars getting trained is decreasing, number of ss+ is increasing, soon in BB allstars will get SACKED and then there'll be brawls for those SS+ people. Especially if they're HOF potential then they'd be going for 3+Mil then trainees will be valuable then when the FA flow stops or runs out (like the USA Proposed year ending 20?? when Social Sercurity Retirment will run out) then there will be a major depression and allstars and stars and starters will get trained again, and it'll take about 5-6 seasons for the TL to recover. At the rate we're going we will may run out at S27-S35. That's when the next depression in BB will start if we don't keep training those still worth while all stars and stars, while P. Allstars+ will be worth like 1 MIL 5 MIL for ATG's 4MIL and you know the rest, so we need to keep training or a major depression will begin, I heard that back in Seasons 11-15 there was a major depression I think? Is that true?

What? I'm not even sure what you're trying to say here...

basically all I'm saying (in a short paragraph now) is that all star rooks are undervalued and that FAs are going to run out soon, if FA's run out there's a depression (running out and spike in prices) and then there'd have to be training of all stars now. get it? a depression=financial meltdown=hard ties for new teams who can only buy all stars and cna only improve in training, cause everyone that's worthful is rare and they go for 6 figures and maybe 7 figures.... now you get it adc?

You don' need to say so much to say so little!

The BB economy is simple: prices drop, prices rise. Unless they're rising, people complain about deflation, and say that whatever feature irritates them (in this case, free agents) is the cause of this and global warming and nipple cancer in rhesus monkeys. The masses of Herpistan and Derponia assemble to herp and derp through the issue, everyone follows along, and the prices keep on derpi... er, dropping.

The economy, such as many things here, attempts to follow rules of economics but the true master is psychology.

I've seen FA's retire. Yes I would have bought atleast 3 of them if I would have had the funds.

I've seen people list their players, still prolly thinking it's xmas. Start adapting to teams current funds and capabilitys.

I've seen people buying trainees way over their value. These guys are either increadibly dumb or are willing to overspend to build a NT player, who will eventually bankrupt their team:)

There is profit in training, but the profit is in training for your own team.

It makes some more sense now, but I don't know. BB is just like any other economy system. It will flucuate and there will be points of inflation and deflation, but it'll take a lot to totally skew the economy like that. What basis do you have for predicting this will happen? FA's are really only a fairly small portion of the market. I can see prices fluctuating if there are less of them, but I don't see it causing an extreme change like you are saying.
