Promotion bonus should be paid when you've won promotion, not when the new leagues are formed.

Transfer history page should have two drop down menus with either dates or season numbers so you see profit/loss between the dates of your choosing.

Hey just a small suggestion that makes life a lot easier.

Have a symbol on the team roster page to indicate players on the transfer list. Thus if you are on a team's roster page its evident which players are on the TL.

Has anyone voiced the possibility of adding luxury taxes for managers with loads of money in bank account?

In short-term, it would add to inflation on TL, but in the long run there it would make BB much more competitive.

Not enough, lower the bar to 10 million. :-)

Why? Short-term, long-term? Do you agree with me that the current staff and players market values are some 2-3 (200-300%) higher than 15 seasons ago? And that there is trend of increasing?

With such prices, there are several clear categories of teams:
1. extremely rich - those who have been on BB for more than 30 seasons and have been in First/Second Division of their countries for a long time
2. rich - teams like mine who had been on BB for more than 15 seasons and have been in First/Second Division of their countries for quite sometime
3. average - teams that have been around there for some 5-10 seasons, those are usually new managers who like the game, but are frustrated that it will take them more than 2-3 real life years to ever be prominent, among top 50 players (in countries with more than 200 users)
4. poor - fresh new teams who will have some chances of competing with the best in 4-5 real life years.

Do you really think that new managers stay for so long? In just few years, if no months, global number of users will drop below 10,000. And slow progress (due to system) is one of the key reasons for it IMO.

Still, the inflation on transfer market is too high.

And, just because you and some 2,000 managers would feel angered if someone actually reduce in the long run a tremendous economic power (that was given to you by the system), doesn't mean that we should continue to discourage new managers.

I assume that in your thinking it is better to be in top 100 managers of the world even though there's gonna be less than 10,000 managers very soon, than to have a community of at least 50,000 managers, who would be more equal than they are today. I don't get that thinking: "I agree that new teams dont have it easy in this game." And what do new managers have of that statement? Nothing. I'm afraid that not many people are agreeing with me, and that they lack any ambition to help BB grow in terms of expanding our community, because they are not willing to get out of their comfort zones.

There's too much talk on game improvements, but also very little talk about the key problems. Among others, the lack of managers which in the long run will dramatically reduce the competitiveness, and for consequence even those 10,000 that remained, will soon get bored and stop logging in.

P.S.: Giving loans/grants/subsidies to new managers will push inflation even more. Message to the community and BB stuff - drain the swamp, gradually reduce the market bubble.
