Great post as always.
It seems users like you are fighting for the game more than the BB staff.

I am right in the middle of quitting - just selling my players off and will leave for good. This game was one of the best I played, unfortunately it has become a huge waste of time and nerves.

I seriously doubt I will be playing this game past next season. It will be summer, I will have training, racing, sunshine, better things to do. At least if they had an APP, I could just check in while sitting on the crapper.
In 2009-2012 was this games golden era, now it is like the walking dead. Just pockets of users scattered across the world.

Understandable but sad news all the same mate.

Your points have nothing to do with two users

I just enjoy the game more than you even if it is difficult for you to accept that.

Of course they have. Being eliminated from the cup in the first round falls in the "no chance to win for 1 straight season"-category and no pops on a 18yo fall in the "training is too slow"-category.

I have no problem with anybody who still enjoys and loves this game. I wish I was you, but I have had enough of lame excuses and being bullshitted by staff and ownership.

Example: new team get a franchise player, 18yo All-Star. Sounds AWESOME, I LOVE IT.

Started a new Utopia team and got a guy with low skills, worth around 1k on the transfer market. Garbage player, I hate it. Frustration kicks in.

There are dozens of examples, that are frustrating to the new and long tenured user, many suggestions have been made and we get to read the same old mantras "no money", "no time", "no staff"... It get's boring. Why is it that frustrating? Because there is no alternative game - if there was, I would have left years ago.

Comparing the game to hattrick is a bit odd, as the football manager game market is crowded like hell - so all those "manager games are not attractive anymore"-stuff is bs too. Plus: such games are appealing to older audiences. People that make their own money and can spend more on stuff they enjoy.

Smaller target audience with more money, hm...

Then what I don't understand is why you don't develop your own basketball management game, maybe with other displeased users like YellowCake Gullyfoyle and Lemonshine and others (since they are very active about this)

Just a small point. You seem to think I don't enjoy buzzerbeater. I don't blame you, I think that's my fault. Its certainly not the case. I am certainly displeased, as you say, about some things, and some members of staff. The thing is though, if I didn't like buzzerbeater, I wouldn't comment at all.

Why I'm especially active recently, and possibly so negative, is because I believe that some changes coming are not going to improve the game; but instead, not just make it worse, but threaten its viability.

Cry me a river Teemo. :`-(

Hey when you have calmed down, I might decide to explain a few things you clearly didn't consider or decided to ignore. I have no interest getting banned because you lost it this time though.

With just you, it's not worth it and in the meantime we're going to enjoy the extraordinary irony of all the negativity and complaining coming from those getting upset by negativity and complaining, lmfao :D

I think he may be unwittingly implying that:
a) the current owners/devs/top staff are not "passionate enough about this" and things are not going well
b) Everything is awesome Everything is cool when you're part of a team
Everything is awesome, when we're living our dream
c) the current owners/devs/top staff are actually passionate, but not capable enough and things are not going well

I see no other logical explanation for 1/ above, do you?

1/ You seem very passionate about this, and this is the first and more important prerequisite
