What we cannot allow is manager who like training better than competing get affected.

I have read forcing players to sell or limiting NT players to top divisions.

(10687966) is arguably one of the best small forwards of the game, the manager bought it when he was 19 years old and has trained him since, he comes in chats, has fun seing his player grow. And we are going to deny that?

I have a sustainable 281k roster in III league. If I choose to compete with a 250k player and 5 more 10k players for rotation, am I a farm team? In my league last season the winner had a 420k roster, he could have easily sustained a NT player.

I agree completely. What we need to do is abolish the nt.

If you don't like NTs, why do you care about farm teams? Do you compete with them?

There are lots of players out there who care for their NT and wish to train a player for the NT. So why do you want to take away their fun? There are some cheaters out there. If you want to do something against them: go, hunt them.

I trained some U21/NT-players from scratch and it's a lot of fun. Never been a farm team, though.

This game is not like Hattrick, where you just can't afford to keep an NT-player and definitely need farm teams. Just look around some BB-I. leagues and you will see dozens of NT-players. That's because they can afford these players and get some financial (merchandise) benefits.

1. More qualified players than spots available = popularity contest = ripe for corruption
2. Farm teams = high incidence of multi-team cheating, according to Wolph
3. Player GS sabotage = bogus

It seems to me that a large part of the cheating in this game surrounds the NT. I love the NT competition I was Thailand's coach for 14 seasons and am now the u21 coach. I think eliminating NTs would go a long way to wiping out farm teams, which is what this thread is supposed to be about. Why would anyone run a farm team if there were no reason to harvest?

We can't just remove NTs that is one of the best aspects of BB.
which is what this thread is supposed to be about. Why would anyone run a farm team if there were no reason to harvest?

Everyone knows the obvious answer, we're here to discuss a way we can remove farming with keeping the NT obviously.

Cheating already is forbidden. Farming isn't. Not all of the farms are cheaters. According to Wolph there is a problem everywhere.

Of course: as long as there are human players there will be some players cheating. So I'd just increase the punishment for organized cheating, e.g. ban this countries NT for the next Continental and World Championship and publicly announce this!

Why can't teams just buy 1 HOF NT trainee and 1 P.Allstar trainee to train with him. I always go to get two trainees. No more. No less. WhenI'm done training bigs in about 3-4 seasons, I'll move to Guards. And I intend to get an MVP+ guy and a P. Allstar+ guy. Why the farming of like, 6+ trainees that will take a long time to train and try to get cash/have the pride to say that they have an NT guy that's drawing em bankrupt. I just don't get it......
