Somehow you always find an excuse why something cannot be done. Just start with putting new teams in the lowest Div. This is overdue to the point that its sickening. First suggested like 2012...



Will you applaud if it happens or switch to something else ?


Okay, so you wont do it because I'll talk about other things that need to be fixed, right?

All the suggestions I made and that were installed were useful and sometimes even huge success stories - so just dont try to brandmark me as an idiot. Thanks a lot.

Utlimately it shoudd be a $$$ decision for the BBs about what is the best for their business and making money.


BINGO!!!

Now why not let them make their decision and live with it.



Don't be offended please, but that's not very intelligent. It's like saying why not let your parents decide what you eat every day, even though you have your own apartment, kitchen, etc. You want to eat what you love not what someone feeds you. That being said, I agree with Trainerman 100%. BB needs improvements. Users are dropping, and like this it's only a matter of time before it all blows up. BBs are hoping probably that it's temporary and user number will climb on its own. However, truth be told, when we will get under a certain number, everything will collapse.

Seeing that, for example, tons of managers love to be U21/NT coaches for micro-nations, i bet they would love to train themselves with a team in that particular micronation. I would gladly pay for that, i would pay double the supporter for that. I stopped paying for supporter after Utopia was "invented"
Utopia was an interesting idea, but all in all it's not what people wanted, it's not what we voted for when there was a poll. It was an "easy way out" for the devs in which they just hoped for the best.

Oh yeah, and BB App? I mean come on. How hard is it. You want to get rid of cheaters signing up like crazy? limit signing up in a way, make a perk of some sort, figure it out. It can't be that hard to make it more secure. BB App is a must, and it must be free.

That's quite the extrapolation you are doing there.

I just asked a simple and honest question. It is always more pleasant to do things when people appreciate it. I think you can relate to that ?


If you need the love of your customers to make things happen, you are bound to go out of business. Plain truth.

In addition to that you should be clever enough to see whats in your own interest, but well, we can talk about me all day long if it makes you happy...

Wow Perpete, you're doing extra time: question time is not until next week ;)!!! But seriously, thanks for the patience and for being particularly active in this thread with your opinions as a user rather than EGM.

Not the right thread, but I fail to see the link between App and Sign-Up. Are you arguing for people to prove they exist, some kind of sign-up through Facebook ? Or limit BB to people having smartphone ? In both case, that would not be a good idea. People do like their privacy and there is many people without a smartphone. Not that the App is wished because of fringe cheating.



I figured the reason BBs don't want the app (at least one of the reasons) was that it would lead to uncontrollable cheating. I am not saying facebook. For instance, Yahoo at some point did not let you create an account via mobile, you were obligated to go through PC, yet afterwards you can login and use your mail however you wish.

But perhaps wrong thread. On-topic

Pakistan may just be the first of many. I will give you an example that is close and known to me. Moldova currently has 11 users currently. Out of those, one has not logged in for a month so they will be looking at 10 soon. Me? I see my own community dropping 20 users each season and it pains me. If I was part of a hopeless community with 10 users, that would suck and I would leave. With 10 users you have no NTs, no one trains, no one candidates, except for some 4th/5th league foreigners.
Moldova and Romania are basically the same people let's say, we speak the same language, we understand each other. If I had the opportunity, I would gladly sign up for Moldavian basketball with a second team. And I am 100% sure, others are in the same situation(other countries), and would do the same. What would you say is the greatest obstacle for this? I really don't think they would mind, I don't think we would either. I don't think it would lead to imbalance, and if it would, BBs could build some constraints.

Common Sense of the BBs says this: We will just make minor improvements to the game, not address the constant drop of users because BB is well above a self-sustainable user number, and hope we never reach that limit, while eventually user numbers will climb by themselves or at least remain constant.

I am not against this at all. But what if they are wrong, what if we are closer to that limit than we all can realize ?

Correct me if I'm wrong, maybe I don't understand it properly.
