So I'm just wondering, is it allowed to have farm teams? Like a team in IV.4 Italy where the manager doesn't give a crap about his team and just trains this one player so that he becomes a NT player.

Are those teams allowed to exist?

i dont think it is a problem as long as the users are different, the ip adresses are different and they continue to log in at least once every 6 weeks.

do you really think that the managers of those teams have never played BB before?

come on, of course they are just second teams of already registered managers

First of all, yes they are allowed to exist just like any other team. I don't know who you're talking about tho, since there's no team in that league with less than 10 players. A farm team normally owns 2 or 3 guys.

Besides, we have a pair of farm teams in Italy. They're owned by guys who didn't wanna play anymore, and were talked into being a farm team (log in once a week to train/maintain this pair of players) in order to find a location for these two monsters with 230k $ of weekly wage. So they used the millions they got from selling their players just to maintain those two players.
They're constantly controlled by the GMs of course, they've got no other account, and were among the most respectable users on BB. You may wanna know one of'em won the first BuzzerBeater Best competition.
So I wouldn't say "it's obvious they are on a double account".

well, i think it is not fair that kind of teams exists but they are not against the rules and it would be pretty hard to judge.

which is my first team?

As a ex NT coach and currently farming Manager i could say that could make fun like playing the conservative way.

And i always trains NT players the last season, and i have fun to watch their games like my own one and tried to give those player the option training to receive the succes in the NT, even if it hurts my club.
