They just need to make the trainers and release them. L7s sell at starting salary of 100k still.


I agree. More trainers and with reasonably cheap, affordable salaries. Not only would that improve training and the overall game experience, it would have a positive impact on the economy. It's a perfect solution.

You should try not expecting other people to give you what you want and follow your rules all the time. changes your live 100% when you stop expecting everything to follow your rules.

Ironically, that's what I'm trying to convey to you. I don't like you sunbathing nude next door and I can't ignore it; I need to confront such issues. We may disagree, but that's okay, It adds constructive criticism to the discussion.

I think the BBs have to start releasing the above 60k FAs again. We can't have high skilled players costing so much. Trainerman always likes to say we should make the game tough for high division teams ("the old grandpas" as he calls them), but he neglects to consider that when prices for high skilled players rise so dramatically, the teams that already have these players on their rosters aren't actually hurt that much and may even benefit, since their players are now worth much more. The teams that get hurt are those up and coming teams and newly promoted ones that need to improve their rosters, but are unable to since they can't afford high skilled players.

Micronations are apart of the problem. lf we want TL prices to go down, BBs have to find a way to increase the supply of players on the market or to decrease the amount of money able to be spent. Merging micronations together would do this as it would decrease the number of Division 1 leagues, increase the number of micronation teams in DII to DIV and prevent micronation D1 teams from being able to field barebones teams to hoard money as their leagues would be more competitive. In the short run it might inflate prices as micronation teams would have to spend money to make their leagues more competitive but in the long run it would decrease the amount of money being earned by micronation teams. I don't really care what happens to micronation NTs. If you want to keep them, just have any player drafted by a team in a micronation league to be the nationality of that team, but in the end we should help destroy the BB economy for the sake of micronation users.

I don't know who disagrees with this.

I mean, obviously some of the official decision makers do, but what exactly is the logic behind leaving those FAs behind? Especially as they acknowledge there's too much money in the game seen with the tax on the highest bank balances. It's contradictory.

It would help if those high division teams / long term managers viewed the Div III and IV teams as anything more than farm teams to do their out-of-position training for them.

Right now the training system is such that those newer/lower division owners are stuck in yo-yo land bouncing back and forth between III and IV because:

1) They can't afford to upgrade their rosters through FA's, and
2) They can't build players fast enough to compete with those long established teams.

Not to mention the fact that a lot of this focus on removing money from the game seems a lot like some people saying "I got my bankroll now we're gonna change the rules so no one else can and I can rule forever."
