yeah, right
anybody interested in giving me an answer can send me a BB-mail

i'm out of this dumpster of a thread

Look. Go to the country overview page. It's Between training and national team ( in long menu ), then push Users Online and challenge teams. Very easy I think, even better than threads.

yes, i like it. but it's a supporter feature

we don't want to give an unfair advantage to supporters, we do?

Having the teams without a SC highlighted in yellow is a Supporter feature, yes. It saves a click.

I have, however, found it more efficient to refresh the Manage My Team page several times -- I usually get enough teams to use all allowed SC invitations to -- and they're also all online at the time.

My 2 cents

I don't care about the thread "players for sale" closed or not my life will be the same but I speak about BBs, I think that an happy community can bring you more money and more satisfaction compare to another community. Probably the success of BB in Spain and Italy is due to the "good feeling" of our national forums. If a community somewhere is happy spamming porn sites I think you should let them free to enjoy, if this create a problem you've to take a decision. The new system to make advertising (players and scrimmages) is horrible, not easy to find for new users and useless but once again no problem about it, I can only remember you that the speed limit is not the same in all the world.

Last, I personally think that there are too many posts cancelled here in global (I'm not speaking about this thread), are you happy to keep alive threads like "the most sexy player in BB" or do you prefer to discuss about some aspect of this game even if this can create some "work" to mods or gms?

what about 2 auto-generating threads (maybe only in global), created with the ads collected with the new sistem?
they could auto-update 1-2 times every day, no more than one scrimmage ads user/week, no more than one ads user/3 days.
could you (also other BBs) give me your opinion about that?

By far the best suggestion.

I don't really like the new system but I understand why we have it. The new system is not good because you can't browse all the ads that have been made. Instead of reading all those you have to hope that you're lucky to see some ad that's interesting to you.

4 scrimmage ads and 2 transfer ads are just not enough to even think about writing an ad, imho. It's just pure chance that someone might see your ad...

4 scrimmage ads ... are just not enough

Those ads change at every refresh, and you have a maximum number of challenges you can issue (15, I think). Therefore, after 4 or 5 refreshes of the Manage My Team page you should be all set. Takes a couple of minutes.

One of the comments Ned made in his thread was:

The new system to make advertising (players and scrimmages) is horrible, not easy to find for new users

I honestly prefer the new system, I think it has helped me sell more players than any Transfer thread ever did. However I really agree with Ned's comment that the Ads are not easy to find. I think to make it easier for new players to place and utilize these ads is to add an option to put an ad on the player your selling right on his player page or in the drop down menu on his page. As for the Scrimmage ads perhaps having an option for it below or near where the main page suggests teams to scrimmage.

While this isn't a solution for Italy's woes it's progress and might help make the game easier for New Players
