But how does this solve any problems we have in this game?

BB has the potential to be much more. It's a shame to see that go to waste just because nobody cares.

That's your opinion.

I think that lot of people have never heard about BB.
One example, Egypt has no users atm, they have 80+ million people, you think no one of them like manager games and basketball? I can't imagine that, can you?

Egypt had a solid number of users and I think the NT was pretty high in the world ranks too - but with all the political turmoil going on in this Country (same for Pakistan and many other countries), I would not plan on a sudden surge any time soon.

BB should focus on the key areas, there is a lot of potential for new users in America, Europe and Asia.

I've always been of the opinion that user retention should be the priority. And I always think that as long as the difference between leagues and the time required to catch up is too long, user retention is not going to improve. Say you make an app and you bring in 50k guys. The difference between having 5k staying long term and 10k is massive. Especially for league where the number of human managers is low.

Unfortunately there are hardcore people who want the game harder, people who want to safeguard their advantageous position and naysayers who are satisfied with the current state of affairs.

Well I have been saying nay to those naysayers for years... Unfortunately it's becoming harder every day to express an opinion.

Well it's your choice to indicate that 10 users who are arguing on the forums are idiots, but there are quite a few indicators why the game is on a decline and I'd rather be open and up front about it, so newbies know what to expect - no need to sugarcoat the truth.

Instead of telling us that we are (and probably should stop) trashing the game, you and some others should finally understand that this frustration has been nurtured by many flaws and shortcomings on the developer and owner side.

Maybe we have to agree to disagree, but in my opinion the issues have been exposed over and over again - it's not the users fault that the critizism is growing. Just because nobody else is vocal about it, does not mean its just 10 maniacs that go rampant. 30k users gone are a strong voice too!

You'd rather hide your head in the sand or treat people like they don't have the right to even talk to you like someone else does? We are all expressing legitimate (in our opinion) concerns. Those concerns actually show that we think about the game as a whole rather than our own little backyard and we're not pushing for changes so that we can get an advantage...and yet what we get are incorrect/misleading official statements and dismissive attitude.

Look, none of us think we have a crystal ball or we're smarter than you or the BBs. We voice our concerns. We discuss with whoever is willing to listen and/or make a rational case about things.

Besides, how many people who were asking for changes before I even started playing the game still play? You should consider yourself lucky that there are still people who care about making this game better or more accessible to new managers. After all, it does stand to reason that without seeing enough improvements this kind of people should be among the some 30k users who already left the game.

And if you think that most of the people who used to debate improvements and state of the game are not among those who already left then you should really ask yourself why very few people now participate in forums. The participation is much less than half than it used to be with twice as many users....you just need to pick up old threads to see that.
