After a few months it's somethings I should warn you about.......should you find this forum in time lol. There are a few owners and one in particular comes to mind "blackflys". You will be insulted, bullied and even plain out harassed by him and a few other owners. They WILL attempt to take advantage of you trade wise, will criticize your every move if a transaction doesn't fit their satisfaction as I know because someone actually counted my teams for me and scoped my depth chart. Hey I've even got my very own thread on what a horrible new owner I am lol. DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT make the mistake I made by acknowledging or retaliating to such behavior. Learn at your own pace with as many teams as you like this owners have been playing for MONTHS and not just a few it doesn't have to work for them to make sense and it is hard to RUIN a league unless you have a duplicate account which in turn YOU WILL BE CAUGHT AND TERMINATED however that is not a call by any team owner they can and trust me will have you checked but again ENJOY the game at your own pace in the time that you have to actually play

I am afraid the bully and insult tactics of a few point to immaturity. I don't know why some people have to make personal insults and slanderous accusations without any facts to back up their claims. Oh well, hopefully they will either change, leave, or grow up.

Perhaps point it out in this thread in the future with references and maybe we can put a stop to the classless name calling and ugly comments made by a select few that mar an otherwise fun game.

Hang in there Nyses and have fun as there is a lot to enjoy with this game :-)

I not sure if there is a limit of how many people you can block from messaging you.


But couldnt or wouldnt it be better just to block everyone in the league or leagues you are then really you wouldnt have people harassing you because i would think that no one in the right mind is going to post the words they are harassing others with in a PM in the open where everyone can see it or take a picture of it and make sure the right person sees it.


basically problem solved i would think if people do what i suggested though sorry for that RUN on sentence.

The problem is not private but PUBLIC garbage messages, claims, and accusations

then in that case i got NOTHING.

unless JDB makes it where we block someone we cant see their messages that are in the public.

yeah all it took was for me to make a trade someone didn't like and it was open season people forget when you're new how complex this game is I still am learning however I was blasted and accused of cheating because I forgot to activate a player

****, I didn't activate a player that I got from the FA market (because I did not know he accepted my offer) and got harassed by the owner I was suppose to play.

JDB has said he will investigate these issues. But he doesn't monitor the trade comments in every league.

My point is you have to make him aware of these instances ...

When the typical MNF thread is....

Blah blah blah yada yada yada blah blah blah cheater
Yada yada yada blah blah blah yada yada yada unfair trade
Blah blah blah yada yada yada blah blah blah is a multi.

Why bother?

Also keep in mind a few things about JBD

1. To my knowledge he is the only person working on this site and administrating it. He has a life outside of this game and I'm not sure he makes much off of this game.

2. To look into every accusation of cheating would be considerably time consuming, not to mention it may not always be easy to prove and I'm sure he would rather be sure before taking action against users.

3. There is always going to be a knowledge gap between experienced and newer owners. If trading is going to exist there will always be the possibility that one team comes out far ahead.
There is no way to completely protect players from themselves, although there could be tweaks made.

4. This is a completely free game outside of customization, pretty darn good compared to most game models these days price wise. Also the way I see it is this game is still very much in a beta version, and even well established and high budget games with full teams of developers struggle with balancing games and keeping a competitive balance between users. Those that put in the most time will almost always have a leg up.

5. JBD does some nice work with this game, but he is just one man and this isn't his full time job.
