I would buy more flex for sure. Was thinking about it until corn dog went on a rant about how he doesn't even care
About GLB anymore and will never take a few minutes to implement an easy suggestion that keeps a great game alive because they want to waste server space on CPU dots and games instead of human ones.

Yep cornogs comments = nail in the coffin for me.

lol at the pussies who left the game because of Mods btw.

I buy flex every month or so regardless of the price. If you want to play, you got to pay.
Would I be down for a reduction in the cost? Yes
Would I buy more flex and make more dots? Yes
but I am just a bored old man at work who GLB's to pass time until I go home.

Only a crazy person running a business would reduce costs by 1/4 like some of you brainnerds are suggesting.

The one thing that Would bring people back is making some changes to the sim. Be it with some new plays/formations, a few tweaks here and there to things like INT's.
The one thing that would bring new people in is to actually market the game in some fashion. Granted I do not really play many other online games, but I have never seen GLB advertised anywhere. I found out about the game from my brother in law who saw a post about it on another online games forum.

Football is the #1 sport in the US. People love anything to do with football for the most part and will get involved with it nearly any chance they get.
GLB imo is a really good product still. Even though it is in need of some spring cleaning to refreshen it, I still enjoy it and will more than likely be here until the bitter end

You were going to buy flex regardless. I am talking about the people who really haven't bought much flex. The guys with 2-10 dots. It is more likely that those guys are just going to save their money and keep 2-10 dots than it is they go ahead and spend more on flex to create 20+ dots.

Really I would love to see a study on how many people there are here (non multi's of course) that are just using their 1-2 free dots to play. Do you think there are at least 100 users doing that? I don't. Which tells me that the problem isn't the cost structure of the game. Far from it.

everyone knows the issue isn't the cost structure anymore. I t may have been 3 or 4 years ago, but not now.
The main issue is the abandonment of the game itself by WGG and it's staff.
The userbase has been begging for some change here and there and it has been ignored. That is why the overwhelming majority left the game.
Has little to do with price. And again, lol at you pussies who left because of moderation

the game is reliant on the user base creating its own inter-action. Since there is not as many people around to stir up conversation, stir up competition/excitement the game has plummeted.

i was until i saw him post. was going to build mostly my own team with a few of the current guys on it. but i see your point. maybe those guys wouldnt buy too much flex but theyd be buying more than theyre buying now i bet.

Let's be realistic here. Corndogs comments haven't changed the outlook of glb unless you have been living under a rock and were completely oblivious to the last 3 years.

well its more about the fact they wont change anything, even when given multiple different ways of doing things. hes pretty much implying, not even in just this thread, that they only care about new games. obviously game died years ago but its about time to just let us have our way and have some fun on glb instead of making terrible, terrible new games.

which is fine but it would take a few minutes to cut dot prices in half and let the 50 of us who are still here play eachother over and over for all i care. cut the cpu leagues out, ditch peewee, make all the leagues condensed. that save server space for running cpu games. they cant really lose money if we are spending more flex on boosting and CEQ instead of not spending anything, right?

oh well who cares. it just saves me money to waste on something else. best thing about glb is i can spend a grand and play for years and still enjoy it where as i can spend $80 a time on xbox games and be done in a week or two with it.

and we all know you couldnt careless about glb anymore, bhall. some of us wouldnt mind getting to keep playing this game, mainly because of the forums but the dots are what keep most of us here even if we really just log in for the forums.

Finding a new admin job, coming soon to you. Some money is better than zero. Do you even business bro?

I guess the better question is... how many times do you slam your own dick in the car door before you learn a lesson? Honestly, if you don't think the issue is at least partially the cost of the game, you have some damn fine meth. Why in the holy hell would someone that just started playing drop $100 to make dots when nobody gives 2 shits about the game. At least if the investment was smaller, people may take a chance playing this game. I've seen people come and go almost daily due to pricing alone.

You obviously don't understand the dynamics of what happened. It wasn't "boo hoo i got banned so I'm leaving". People left in droves because the more entertaining posters were either perma banned or banned from the forums for lengthy periods of time. It got to the point there was literally nothing of interest going on in the forums. As I stated before, the forums are bigger than the actual game. When you remove the entertainment people aren't going to stick around.
