3. Promised to buy players back from other teams "to repay loans" after he enters his rebuild. This constitutes shifting BB money from one account to another.

I don't see where he did this. Are you inferring he did this in private with players?


Seriously? He didn't just offer to repay, he actually offered to re-acquire those specific players! So now he's offering to buy those very players back when they will be another year older, AND, have more ratings drops, lowering their value even more...so then he will be in violation of paying over fair market value as well.

His quote on the offsite forum is as follows before he edited it about 90 minutes ago:

"with next season being a rebuilding seasons i'd obviously have money to re-aquire these players and repay such loans"

Come on man. He said it explicitly in his post. I have zoomed in on this section since you have seemed to miss it:

I read that as "managers have contacted me, and I'd have the power to do this, but I'm posting this ad here to avoid that"

Now that I read it again I see your point. But he hasn't reacquired those players, so like I've said a bunch of times, best that we let the GM's deal with it.

But I'm out, this isn't my fight so I'll let the right people settle it.

Those specific players hold sentimental value to me. I am wanting to re-acquire them. Regarding the strength of my team (had I sold Isom), I've played with six players before and believe my team is strong enough to do it again. I would have played two players 48mins as I did when Simmons was injured and would still be a formidable opponent worthy the title.

Goodnight Folks, this is a bb-mail i received from someone... (to the person, no hard feelings at all sir, i believe we had our understanding and I removed your name)

Someone pm'd me, i won't say whom but this is basically my response above
Also, may I just add, those players I bought already had bids on them prior to mine, he was already set to bring in a large amount of cash.
Don't question A-Dub's integrity, I can assure you he did not ask myself to buy any of his players. I'm sure the GMs can see that there were no BB-mails, plus i havent been on the mibbit chat these past couple games (and i've only seen adub there once or twice before anyway). I'm sure frequent live game watchers can vouch for this.

I see players selling for ridiculous prices everyday anyway.

Anyway, goodnight all, take it easy on A-Dub, he hasn't done anything wrong. He couldn't force anyone to actually bid on his players and I don't think he's got much responsibility.

I guess that's up to the GMs to judge though

Great job buddy! You get your junior G man vagina detective merit badge.

I would love to hear your thoughts on Hilary's email and the beef between Kim K and Taylor Swift.

This is total bullcrap. I was never told he would pay me back or reaquire any player I purchased. A Dub and I have never contacted each other via BB Mail, via Offsite Forms or any other fashion. I don't care if someone doesn't like a purchase or whatever, but at least get the facts straight.

Secondly Jason, you are coming across pretty lame in all of this considering you and I discussed this via BB mail. You left me with the feeling you understood and were moving on. This clearly was not the case.

Third, everybody that's made it this far has made more money off a player than they should have at some point. Everyone of us have manipulated the market to help acquire wealth. It's a major reason most of us were able to build our teams up, we were smart enough to exploit the game at some point. I had an owner purchase one of my capped out trainees for 2.7 million once. I put up for and was hoping to receive 750k for him, it completely changed my financial situation. I am sure you all have similar stories. Now to point out and complain about another owner being fortunate a make a couple hundred k is weak and a bit douche baggy. Because you didnt benefit from it? So that one time the newbie bought your player for 600k when he was probably worth 250k you reported it to the GMs? Bullshit you did. Just stop all of you.

1. I never said in any my forum posts that this was directed at you or any specific person. I never indicated that he had a BB exchange with anyone. I am not sure why you think I said that, go back and read what I said. In the USA Offsite forum, he very clearly made this offer to ANYONE who purchased his players. It's not bull crap in any way. My facts were 100% straight...The only thing I that I have said, that can be argued (that I have caught in review), is that technically it's not illegal to list players for more than their fair market value....but that said, when you list them over their market value, and then attempt to get people to buy them at that price or more, that is clearly going beyond what's okay.

2. My BB Mail exchange was with you, as an individual. Like I said in the bb mail, I am not mad at you, and we left it with each other that we were cool....That said, all of my comments came after Hassan's lengthy Post which ignited other responses, and I jumped in. Even though we left things good with each other in the BB mail, I never communicated to you that I was cool with how A-Dub handled this.

I am not sure where you are finding my lameness or crooked facts...but you might want to go back and review.
