I haven't read all 127 pages of this, but high salary does not equal high morale (and the in-game benefits that come from having high morale). If anything, a guys performance will decline after getting a big contract. It's the lower-paid guys who are playing for their first big contract who often perform at their highest level.


That's true. The whole concept behind a player in any sport being in a "contract year" is that they will be motivated to play hard beacuse they don't have a guaranteed big paycheque the next year.

There's lots of stuff I've held back on in the past due to certain users' outcries, though we are now trying our best to just push forward and get them done ASAP so we can push all the stuff live and have a stable product.


what does it matter if you have a a 'stable product' if you lose a large number of your formerly loyal, big money customers. Think about this... I am one agent and I have the following:

one team I have owned since season 5 (100 FP for the first two seasons, another 4000FP for extensions)
one casual team I have owned since season 10 (bought toward the end of the season, so 2900 FP including current extensions)
one Pee Wee team for two seasons (800 FP)
30 active players ranging in levels from 7 to 68 (crap load of FP)
92 retired players ranging in levels from 2 to 64 (Monster sized crap load of FP

now I am just One Guy that has been playing since season 4 that is ready to quit over this crap. Do the freaking math and see the money you are losing if I quit, then look at the other people ready to hang it up over this.

Help me out people, tell Bort here how long you have been around and how much you spend. I am guessing he stands to lose money in the thousands of dollars or more.

I know I have spent around 500 bucks over the years, and he will lose roughly another 1000 or so over the next couple of years in my money alone.

Bort, are you really ready to lose that kind of money? If other people quit, over the next few years you will lose enough money to buy a new car.


I read Borts comment there, this is stuff I wanted in my game and part of vision, so screw you, this needs to be in the game. I it is my game and this is what I wanted all long. If you do not like it don't let the door hit you on the way out. At least I have what I want an envision for a product.

It would be better to just announce that it is on hold and spend some time figuring out what the customer-base really wants, but...

I get that a lot. In other words.

BORT: I like RBGs and I want this to be an RPG, it's my game. I will do what I want, who cares, if you do not like it leave. Quit whining cause I think I have you all hooked anyways.

A "revision" means that there's still belief that all of this nonsense just needs a few tweaks here and there--thus effectively ignoring the fact there are 128 pages (and counting) to this thread.

I've spent $618 since March of 2008. More than on any other game I play online (xbox or web). I spend more on GLB than Netflix. The changes suggested in the financial updates should be dropped in favor of a K.I.S.S. game. I'd rather not need to buy Quickbooks in order to run a team.

If a new team is only 3 months old, well yeah, they aren't going to have money. I've had a team for close to 2 years now and I am a season 1 vet. It's not my fault those guys don't have cash, I took an entire season of not buying any equipment for any of my guys, doing a lot of losing, trying to stay afloat so the next season I'd have capital to invest in players that I needed to win.

What's fair? Fair is the fact that I've worked hard to put my team where it is, now you want to take the profits from my team and spread them out, you want to salary cap me, you want to change the dynamics of the game dramatically.

What's in it for me and the rest of the owners.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO CHANGE THEIR SIGNATURE TODAY UNTIL THE VOICES OF THE AGENTS ARE HEARD!
