I agree completely

Um, I'm gonna guess you don't play GLB2 so please don't take this wrong but what you're asking for is exactly what I posted about (probably confusing as hell but I tried). Anyways, like a Free Dot, you get a special 'pickup dot' that you can build extremely fast. I think a bit of changes would still have to happen for it to work here... #1, we don't have 'pickup games' to play so we'd have to do that differently.... probably simply choosing a specific 'age' you want for the dot, then getting the TP's for the amount of time that would normally pass in such an instance as well as all boosts up to the selected age. This would STILL let you 'create' the dot (meaning you would have to both pay for all the boosts as well as manage the build as you create it). I don't think the 'copy and paste' method would work here, however the METHOD to quickly build a dot exists already (which is why I posted about the pickup players) and it's that METHOD you could transfer here... with changes as I said.
I simply think we have the ability already available so it should be easy to make it work here along with certain changes. The reason I mentioned the pickup players from GLB2 is that it's an already working code. Transfer would/should be simple... but to fix it so it works here would call for SOME things to worked in. Things that would/should be easy enough. And easy is why I mentioned it because I really don't think WG is going to put much (if any) effort into something such as this. But, perhaps, if they looked at something very much like what everyone is asking for... which already exists in GLB2... then maybe, just maybe, they might make something like that work here. It wouldn't be 100% like what everyone is talking about but the end result would be the same... players you could create very quickly and use right away.

I don't play glb2 Theo (I did give it a shot but the interest wasn't there for me), I got what you are refering about the pick up player on glb2 what I meant by my response was you said that an agent only gets 1 pick up player, I would like to be making more than just one as I like to see my dots get to plateau faster than what they do now. That's what I meant

The problem with insta dots is they would crush the lower levels as 50%+ of the dots would retire & chaos ensues.

Last time this was brought up, I suggested starting players as one season old dots, giving them an appropriate expert builders set of SPs to spend. Then the next season, all new players start as two-season old dots with the appropriate SPs. Repeat until it doesn't make sense to start any higher, maybe 42 or 52? Sadly prob wont happen but IMO would not be that hard...

The first season when the leagues open up to level 79 could be the level to make the dots insta-79-er's.

Ah. Gotcha. Yeah... I don't think GLB would go that route. The biggest issue is that the owner of a TEAM must grow the team itself (stadium upgrades and all re-newing every season), which costs flex separate from the cost(s) of dot building as well as takes time also.

Can finishing building the stadium be linked with:

...but since there's no (and not going to be) new dot builders around, You'd be still playing vs. me & "my borther" solely.

it'll actually be glb3D, but i've said too much

Here's the thing though. Say I can build instant 79 level dots. Great. However, I cannot build an instant level 79 TEAM since I have to do all the stadium upgrades, pay for renewals each season, and anything else that takes time and costs flex. I could sign with teams that already are set for my level but then GLB would lose out on teams 'renewing' themselves along with the flex from such things and that's why I suspect it won't happen. I see no incentive for WG to take a cut in it's income just to make some of us happy.

So your talking about a team moving up to the higher levels. That would imply that there is space there for your team or that you have a team there that needs a whole new bunch of dots (hello chemistry hit and demotion). With Plateau being 5 seasons, you're going to want to space it out and then you can have dots put up at certain levels. It'll definitely skew leagues but to what degree? Hard to say. I think Pro and WL would become something else!
