I know they wont be effected by this 1 rule, but they have to read this one and all those others and eventually they will 'bother' them once in the future.. It just feels like 'to much to handle'..

Its sucking out the fun for the most of it..

Ps im a newbie now, but i have played the game since S4 for 20+ seasons.

Building my team years ago seemed more fun. Getting dictaded way to much now how BB thinks how i should run my team instead of me running it the way whats best ànd most fun for me.

The amount of managers total still declining right? I dont know why its declining, but i can understand for a real newbie all those rules are just way much to grasp when reading the game manual..

The last home game had 73% attendance (which is very low)
With the boycott you would have got 60% of the 73% so approximately 43% of the maximum capacity.

You have not been affected by the fan boycott.
And he will never be affected as he faces non-human teams in both conferences. Amen.

This is a minor detail that had been brought up multiple times when discussing about tanking in the past and that Mr "We Read And Consider All Posts", aka W.R.A.C.A.P., Foto decided to ignore completely when it was mentioned in this very thread.

Now before I get accused of making things up, I will quote myself when I addressed w.r.a.c.a.p. Foto directly:
All of this while not punishing ANY tanking team in divisions where there is at least 1 bot per conference (and they are the majority in BB). Congratulations...you should have listened to Perpete.

Perpete, feel free to amend if you think the sarcasm is excessive

Newbies won't be affected by the boycott. They won't have the funds to make a difference by it. Unless they get really lucky and draft and sell a 5+ million dollar time.


Attendance penalties start at $500,00 or more per the Game Manuel. A new team that conserves cash could easily save more than that and potentially face the penalty.

I have to admit that I've lied to you, it was in this post (282669.113)
Time to make it true from now on.

The thing is though that many users complain over different things in the game and if nothing is done there is more complaints. But as a change comes to address something a storm of complaints come because of changes being made.
I'm not sure how they should do to keep everyone happy. Do you even think it's possible?

This is the second time in a few days you've dismissed very reasonable posts as complaints. You really need to understand the difference between a complaint and criticism.

If nothing is done there are complaints. Yes, and that's perfectly alright as the game isn't perfect and can be improved.

But as a change comes to address something a storm of complaints come because of changes being made. Again, this is perfectly alright, especially if, as several clearly intelligent people have done, this comes with an explanation of why the changes are not a good idea.

I'm not sure how they should do to keep everyone happy. Of course this is impossible but no one expects it, and its silly to even say it. Lets puts a stop to constant staff complaints about legitimate criticism from users and instead perhaps see some of those criticisms (especially those with very reasonable questions) addressed.
