I think what you're missing here is that this isn't a "rule change", people who demoted before weren't required to destroy their own stadium or anything.

Please explain why we would be hunting down all these people and retroactively annihilating their stadium and bankbook? They didn't break any rules.

I worked long and hard building it, sacrificed my own players to help build sections, and now I have to tear it all down?

Reprehensible.

And you don't see how having a full stadium is an inherent and huge advantage over other teams that are starting from scratch?

Many teams dropped down because they were restarting, they didn't do it to maliciously abuse the cash system, and trying to track down every team that has ever demoted and razing their stadium to the ground would be a nightmare DUCY

Yep.

That is actually an idea for Bort to better the game.

Ideally, when would you want the change to take place? I've seen quite a few people in this thread say they've been planning to demote for 2, 3, 4 seasons. Should we accomadte them as well, so not make this take effect until season 19?

And can you not see how not retroactively degrading stadiums of teams that did this 20 days ago Originally posted by Catch22

i think the point is that...whether they did it before this...they cant anymore...so even if they are ahead of the curve in that area now...it will even out at some point to where it doesnt matter anymore....because they cant ever do it again.

But it wasn't a rule back then.

You can't retroactively punish teams for something that wasn't even against the rules.

The farm team exploit was one thing, because that was actually against the rules, and even then they said that they're only going to use the most severe examples. This never was against the rules, so it would be pretty messed up to punish teams over something that wasn't wrong at the time.

I do but I also know it's not as easy as you think it is to figure out which teams to reset and which ones to not reset. It's also not my call on that one as it's Bort who would have to do all the work.

Edit to add - also what Bukowski said. It wasn't against the rules then so it'd be hard to punish someone for doing something that wasn't disallowed.

Honestly, at the lower levels it won't make a damn bit of difference because gear costs don't get stupid until you're near 40. By then, ANY team should be able to have a stadium set up nicely.

Sure, cap the cash, but he stadium won't make enough difference to matter.

Honestly, if you just fixed gear costs so they weren't absolutely ridiculous, we could play in a grassy field with a lemonade stand.

Why not just apply this to all teams at the level cap that you are going to be at regardless of how you got there at the start of S15. Balance the entire thing, that way there is no advantage to anyone at all.

That's it in a nutshell.
