Now go away.


Why? Because I read the entire thread and know they've said they're working on a financial fix that will:
"1) A way to avoid going through the pointless and annoying exercise that Bort calls the "financial system."

and

2) A way to pay for everyone's equipment so you don't have a guy who spent $60+ on his player somehow being less than he should be simply because equipment is so ludicrously expensive."

Or is it that you want me to go away because I disagree with you?

I think I'll stay tho, thanks.

Thanks for missing the point. What tsherr described would simply be a means of seamlessly transitioning from the current Beta state to the "finished product." Of course, most of us are already wise to the fact that there will never be a "finished product," just whatever point Bort decides to give up and focus on baseball.


i didnt miss the point.

what about what he said didnt answer that point?

The part where he thought tsherr was suggesting hosting different versions of the game indefinitely on different servers.


And please, please get over whatever obsession you have with me. It is beyond old. Obviously I hurt your feelings badly, but I strongly suggest that you do whatever is necessary to get beyond it, because this constant bitterness and following me around in threads to make snarky comments isn't really helping anyone. Get a life, and stop being obsessed with mine.

it's easier to act like he's the majority when other opinions aren't present in the thread.

So, so dumb. It amazes me how the people in charge can simultaneously pressure people to drop down to an appropriate level while also penalizing them for doing so. It's nonsense. Everyone who plays this game hates the idiotic stadium system, but Bort & Catch somehow think it's a good idea to force people to go through it over and over again.


Amen.

The new rule of thumb will be to keep a roster that barely meets the requirements rather than requesting a drop to an appropriate league, hence more gut jobs at the top. But we'll have beautifull parity at the bottom end! This is fixing a messed up financial system with another messed up band aid applied.

Have a set team cash cost to dropping down. Have stadium section black outs for some known period of time. I don't know what the answer is, I'm paying you for this game. Just think things through please before making grand sweeping changes that just expose or create other obvious problems.

If that "financial fix" is actually coming then there's absolutely no need for this rule change at all.

No, it's because you fail to meet the minimum intelligence level for this thread. Honestly, there should really be a sign or something to provide a disclaimer about that. You repeat points that have long, long since been addressed. It makes you look bad, not only to people who disagree with you, but also the people on your side.

The difference is that I don't obsess about people and follow them around. If you say something insightful, I'll praise it. If you say something dumb, I'll bash it. What I absolutely won't do is look for your posts just to make a bitter comment because I'm holding some grudge.

sorry


It wouldn't really be a split of versions. The same software would run on both machines (I know there may be more than one server now, but let's keep it simple) but on the new "reset" server, everyone who joined would join at the same time and create players at the same time, thus giving the feeling of a "fresh" version without irritating anyone. But thinking about it, you'd pretty much have to lock that server so that no newer players could join to keep the competition level equal - so it'd have to be enough players to make the extra server worth it. Not sure how that would work.
