With 70 hours where nothing happens it's not demanding on your time.

I thought we went over this already.... If a salary and draft point update along with NT and U21 NT games are nothing, then you would be correct, but they are something. Along with the fact that the Transfer List is still active during your 70 hours of nothingness. It doesn't just pause during sunday and monday. I suppose I am not forced to set a lineup for my upcoming U21 NT game, but I would prefer it if I am able to. Once again, an App makes this process easier.

So we did go over this.

1) I responded to someone else not you. You are not part of the discussion I have with someone else. I sent you a private email for a reason. Respect the respect I showed you.

2) CHOOSING to log on doesn't mean the game MAKES you log on. There is nothing to debate here. If you CHOOSE to have 9 teams and CHOOSE to play the TL all the time, that's your CHOICE. BB only asks you to log on to set your line ups, set your training or book a scrimmage. And yes, updates ARE nothing because it requires no action from you.
You CHOOSE how much time and energy you want to devote to BB over and above the minimum requirements.

Let's agree to move on from repeating ourselves.

It is within my right to respond to anyone on here whether they started a conversation with me in the thread or not. That is why the thread gives me the option to reply to anyone individually or everyone in the thread. You did not respect me in the bbmail you sent me, you simply yelled at me and told me to get off your back, and I decided to take the high road and apologize, so I would rather not encounter another bbmail with you. I hope you don't take offense to that.

As for your whole "CHOOSING" rant. BB does not even ask you to set lineups or training. It is completely within your right to do absolutely nothing on this game ever. BB does not make you do anything. The minimum requirements for BB is simply that you log on and as long as you don't go bankrupt, you will still have a team. My point is that if you want to play the game successfully there are certain things you would like to be able to log on for.

I really am trying to see things from your point of view and be polite, but you seem to be very set on not being open minded to other managers opinion. You have been rude to not only myself but Isaiah as well, and I personally do not care for it. Isaiah has been around since season 11, and I respect him greatly, you apparently do not. In your bbmail rant that you sent me you kept saying how I didn't know your life and who I am to assume things about you. I think it is a bit hypocritical to say that and then come on here and tell someone like Isaiah who is very preoccupied with his job and family, that

You don't need a laptop.

In my books, that is a little rude and you should be more careful what you say to people. Just because you are happy doing everything from an iphone does not mean that other managers enjoy that method of accessing BB. Isaiah has already stated numerous times that it is a pain in his opinion to do everything on BB just on his phone. You guys can agree to disagree, but there is no reason to be disrespectful to him. Please continue being an ass to me if you want though.

Well sure I mean you could argue that they don't need an app, but there's no debating that it would be much more user friendly and convenient as well as more users would join. Whether it costs money or is free or however long it would take it would certainly be worth it, even if you don't think there is always something to do.

I find it ridiculous that every single thing needs an app nowadays, and this whole idea is already having too many question marks. Who's going to make it? Who's going to pay for it? What about game viewer? What about security? So the first one is settled, it's community effort. Second one, you still need a developer account if you want to put it on the market. Unless random people will take care of it, which raises another question. What if that developer loses interest in this game and disappears? Then there's game viewer, I guess making it available on mobile means 'play by play' feature for everyone. Perhaps other supporter features too, depends from the api. And yeah, the security, people managed to abuse stupid bbapi to gain advantage over others. Wonder what one will be able to do with this one.

You already have an app. It's called your browser and you get it on your phone.

Yes, that's why I find many apps to be ridiculous. You don't need app to view text, edit options, write on forum. Your browser already does it. What you need is a flash-less website with modern and responsive design. This alone will make game mobile friendly, save money, maintain everything within one codebase and don't worry about security.
