Yeah, I tried that. It worked about as well as not responding, and wasted exponentially more time.


Here's an example: http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/forum/thread/5239402

Is it a bug? Intended? I don't know. If a bug, will it ever get fixed? Who knows.

I think getting caught up in arguments with players like us is a waste of time in many cases, as you noted. But one post that is 2 - 4 sentences long for some of the repeated queries (the DE ghosting mentioned above, the chem changes, etc.) helps a lot.

Can we get your opinion on the current state of chemistry? Many people are on board with not penalizing offseason moves or at least lessening the penalty.

I'm pretty content with chemistry.

It emphasizes having staggered roster resets, as well as rotating starters and backups throughout their time spent on your team, and discourages "farm teams" that just replace everyone as well as seasonal ringers.

I wish you actually played the game. I think there is a major disconnect here.

Of course there is a major disconnect. The game isn't intended to have one or two people make all the players on the team, and it isn't intended for those people to easily sit happy at the top of the ladder every season without bumps and bruises. Resetting your entire roster should create a rocky season.

Here's DD's team: http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/team/26
He will never have chemistry issues because he is a one agent team. So chemistry makes the game better for one agent teams whether you intended it or not. So if you are counting on DD to report back to you, then of course he won't see chemistry as an issue.

several thousand?? LOL what are you counting all of GE's multis?? or accounts created since the game came out? (cuz news flash, 75% of those people are gone and not coming back)

i have to agree with FF, what you have here on the forums is your ENTIRE active community aside from a few accounts with free players only or a bunch of multis, so when the community bands together to ask for specific changes, those changes should be implemented or should be addressed in a manor that at least shows you are looking into the communities concerns.

When his players run out of career, he's going to reset as far as I know.

Replacing a couple players here and there when they drop out throughout the climb isn't going to make or break any team. Replacing the entire roster should temporarily break your team so it can grow into and adjust for it's new players, whether it's from people bailing on a sinking ship or a veteran team sitting at the top of the ladder season after season.

By the way it doesn't just hurt teams but it hurts players too. There are plenty of vet free agents that found teams this season and they get to watch their player that they paid money for play at a disadvantage for the majority of the season.

They also get to watch their player's performance improve over the season, as well as having a discernible scapegoat for any poor performance that will inevitably get better over time.

I've seen in many team and private forums about teams having a decent showing, and being excited about how "dominant" they will be when they get their chemistry built up. They usually aren't, but it still gives something to look forward to after replacing some key positions.

We obviously don't see eye to eye, but at least I can now stop getting my hopes up for a change that will never come.

i'm calling shenanagans, lets see some proof. how about a screen shot of how many active accounts login per day. even with the multis and all the BS free accounts i am going to assume it is at or below 250 accounts, let alone 500, let alone "several thousands"

you prove me wrong and ill mail you a $100 hot dog on a stick gift card. but you won't post, because the game is dying more and more every season, and will be completely dead soon enough if you keep up that sarcastic attitude with your community and continue to not address changes they are requesting
