This is how you will get free flex from now on. The free flex won't be refundable upon retirement.

Are there any other ways to get reward points?

Feel free if there is a link to all this.

EDIT: too lazy to look plus i need to get off now

They are thinking of giving "Frequent Flex Buyer" Rewards with RP.

How does this impact old free flex points granted over the last couple years? Is that still considered as refundable or will it automatically disappear whenever I retire my players? If its the latter then this will be sad as I'll watch my stable of non-boosters shrink down until I can only afford 1 glamour player.

I have to object to the idea that Bort is losing money because people recycle flex points, because of 2 points-

1) It assumes we were going to create a new player regardless of whether we had free flex or not, but in reality thats probably no the case. i lived off of free flex for a long time, and i recycled a lot of flex and tried out a lot of positions...but if i hadnt gotten points for recycling positions i just would not have created a player. i would not have purchased flex so i could make more players.

2) The free/recycled flex serves an important purpose- it increases the number of players an agent has, which keeps them emotionally invested in the game. the more emotionally invested a person is in GLB, the more likely they are to stick around long term and invest financially. example- me. i recently bought flex points, tried out ownership, bought CEQ...none of that would have happened if i had not gotten a great taste of the game through recycling free flex points.


Its a fallacy to say that just because 1000 players were created with recycled free flex points, 1000 players would have been created with paid flex points instead...the reality is that most of those players just would not have been created.

If I made a player in say season 10 with free flex and I retire him after next year will it be refunded?

As long as the points aren't rewards points, yes.
