When team purchases opened up in S1 you could buy as many teams as you wanted as long as they weren't taken up from the first wait-list wave. I think someone else had like 4 teams but they allowed Bort to take them back and give them out to teams on the waitlist.

I think they were supposed to do that to every agent who owned multiple teams but I guess a few fell through the cracks.

Most likely he bought an inactive team at the end of season one like me. I noticed when I did that my buy team page still said i was waiting for a team. I though "well that wouldn't be fair" so i unlisted myself and stuck with one team.

There are really two problems there:

1. Shoud not be allowed to own two teams
2. Teams should not be allowed to be named "Boobs". It's terrible. Juvenile, imbecille and certainly not funny.



I suspect this guy doesn't get Doinitin Djibouti's name.

It's obviously as juvenile but not nearly as misogynistic.

Explain how.


There are certain rules for names (a team named "Naggers with attitude" and with player all named after famous African Americans got changed to "That's Racist, Guys" by administration), and I can see arguments for making those rules stricter, I can also see arguments for allowing more, but I don't see how a team clearly named after sex in the butt is worse than just calling a team Boobs.

I'm not sure if that last part was meant for me or if you forgot a "not" but I do not think references to sexual acts are worse than names that are demeaning to women and I really shouldnt have to explain why calling a team boobs and having a logo that consists of rotating pictures of said body part is misogynistic.

That said naming teams after sexual acts should probably be avoided also.

Your team's logo appears to be some sort of mentally retarded dinosaur. I'm horribly offended on behalf of the disabled AND dinosaurs. Please change it ASAP.

Guys guys guys they're playing FOOTBALL in DJIBOUTI. What did you think it was, sheesh.

Meh, my high school was littered with signs rooting for the various sports teams that used some form of "Girls Soccer does it better in the grass!" etc etc. Yeah, it's juvenile, but hey, it was a school, everyone was a juvenile. But the administration was fine with them and let it be - and this was Texas, y'all.

yeah, naming a team Boobs is probably pushing the line, but DD's name I'm comfortable with. And if you start taking admin action against a name like "Boobs" then you're going to have to deal with a bunch of people trying to push the line for a while, and I'm not sure that name is worth taking a stand on. There's a reason kids games online force you to pick names from a list rather than type your own, if you REALLY have to be super-family-friendly you can't be stuck policing that.

That was me, I gave up 2 teams so other people could get them, and I got shit for it, of course I got shit for having 3 teams aswell.

Hopefully they do allow you to purchase at least one more team sometime in the near future. It doesn't make much sense to have inactive teams filling up leagues when there are tons of people who would like to have two teams.
