Not really.

He was already 30+ (i think) when I started.

I've got some kind of issue with Google Chrome and you can notice a red square where a red downward arrow should be. He also got a drop in FT. Some other guys told me it was possible and showed it to me, but up until recently I haven't seen drops in FT at all.

I've updated the image here:

I thought you couldn't drop in free throws?

My player Simon has had some FT-skilldrops. But if I remember correctly most of these occured in weeks I trained free throws. Sadly I get a timeout if I want to see his training history page. So I only have some samples:

training:
17th April 2015: FT-training and skilldrop TF from 3 -> 2
1st May 2015: FT-training and skilldrop TF from 2 -> 1

By the way: his TSP is 9, blocking is 0. And he is 57 years old. I guess it will still take a while till his TSP=0.

Yeah the drop in FT was the reason I asked if he had received any training at all. FT training for example.
I have had a belief that training reduces and that it at a point goes to a negative figure when receiving training.
Marin has said that is not the case but I still have my beliefs set on that.



Someone showed me 2 or 3 weeks ago another FT drop, and yes it was in a week with FT training. I am 100% sure. There may be somekind of bug. I'm not sure it's a bug that needs fixing(as in it probably affects 50+ guys), but I am absolutely certain I saw a drop in FT during FT training.


EDIT:

Ok, so I must be getting tired. The guy who trained FT and had a player who dropped in FT was me. My humble apologies. However:

Sorry again, but it gets tiring as an U21 Coach

Might it have been shikago that reported it?

I have had a belief that training reduces and that it at a point goes to a negative figure when receiving training.
Marin has said that is not the case but I still have my beliefs set on that.

I've had players with 0 skills for a long time. (skills sometimes increase back to 1 BTW)

But yeah, i reported about negative training maybe like 13 seasons ago or so. First noticed it happening consistently with stamina, starting at around age 46 or 47. After a while I'd have half my team drop in stamina while training stamina!

Negative training really accelerates with age. I rarely train FT, but finally did last week. Had a few triple drops. like this guy:
Beda Utesch ↓dropped↓ in Free Throw from inept to atrocious


ETA- I see one of my 46 year olds just dropped in FT, so that's probably the age it first starts happening. It's still pretty rare for someone that age though. Guessing he must've dropped from like 14.0 to 13.9 or something.

Oddly crosstraining didn't seem to be impacted by age. (Remember when they added crosstraining?) My first ever pop from it was an old guy in Jump Shot. (between age 45&50)

I'm not sure if that's possible. It'll be interesting to see what happens to players as they get near 70 years old though. As of now skills seem to creep back to 1. You won't see those pops on your team training page. In your player's case, blocking might just turn bold again one week.

Stamina will be interesting too. I've had a couple players at pure 0, only to pop back to 1 without training.
