seems the last update a fair few teams became inactive.... i guess the Transfer market prices will fall heavily as a result....

we cant be far off the new changes that were promised on the 2nd....... i wonder if they are able to keep the retention rates higher?

do BBs have a goal for the amount of active users they wish to see lets say 3-6-12months from now?

i think its hard at the moment for the bb`s, i also was a little surprised how many managers left this great game.
i came here over the hattrick-ad, maybe that did bring a lot of user but those probably were soccerfanatics and realized that basketball is not their thing at all.

i wonder why is that, i mean as you see bb reacts very quick on user problems/suggestions as you see at the stamina/transferextensiontime and so on, so this is really good, i mean that shows users have kind of influence to the game.

we have to find the problems, maybe its to hard for newbies, for me it was ok, but sure i had to read a lot in the forum and ask questions a lot, in germany we have a good help-site now, i think more stuff like that would be cool, also the rules maybe need a few additions. also big up to bbs and assist people some may say i dont need to have extra programs, but at least for the beginning something like that is nice to give the managers more information about their players.

anyway bb is still very young so i think many things will improve and make the game better and better over the time.

i dont know whats about the transfermarket, there been a few discussions about that, but sure many new free agents will be there... (8077.1) (10265.1)

if you got ideas how to get more people -> (14316.1)

i can say much gone away cause the dificult to manage economy under low leagues...


it's imposible to handle a team with 18 players without knowing nothing to the game and maintain the economy. the low division needs to have worst players than the they are receiving.

if you recieve 3 players with 3 respetable each you will buy some more to get a decent team. but if yu recive 10 players with 3 regular you may buy 1 respectable to make him star fo your team...

Howl to the Moon, you won't regret it.

that would explain why so many users I see in V or IV try to get away by selling their players to teams in the same country for inflated prices.... i guess if people get away with it they will continue and if they dont they will just quit...

The taxation is still too weak I would have stronger taxation to reduce once again day traders. I believe that this game is growing very well and until now the BB have taken good decisions following the suggestions of the users. I think the only reason why some people left the game is because is not so "immediate" to understand and because you can see the results of your strategy only on a medium/long term basis.
There are still something to do but at the moment this is one of best browser game I've played.

Day trading has been seriously reduced.

It will never go away entirely, and it really shouldn't be.

If someone can pull if off successfully in this restrictive climate, more power to them.

bb doesnt necessarily need more users but they need more supporters. more useres only make the game more difficult to manage for the BBs.
Apparently getting more users is oney way of getting more supporters, the other way is increasing the percentage of supporters.
