Hey, what about having a farm league. we can have a regular team and a farm team per account. That way, it takes a little steam out of the people who have muti-accounts(because they have more teams to worry about.). I always been a fan of having a farm team, It just gives me the feeling of being more interactive in the game. I would give them 2 games a week in scrimmage mode only.

I know, I just don't use the term "farm team" as a negative. But it is pretty much the same type of term. It is pretty much doing the same thing, but structured.

but in this thread it is about training high salary "star" Players, not your second row for your team.

Then should it say "star players" instead of farm team. The topic started of talking about farm teams and I think they are still talking about farm teams.

Farm teams in this and other similar games refer to teams that are exist not to be competitive, but to maintain one star player and his huge salary.

The thread discusses exactly the same thing from start to finish.

i fully support you.

It's a cheap way to get good NT players. If it doesn't get banned, it's just a matter of time till more will make these kind of teams and simply build up mosters!!

Other suggestion:

The NT should pay 25% of the salary of a NT player, that way the good team could afford having one in their rows.

otherwise soon NT players will be just a garbage needed just by NTs... That is totally unrealistic that best players wont get job course they are just to good for any team in BB world course those can`t afford to pay their wage

I've been reading this thread for a while, and I still don't understand the problem.

Low level teams are screwing themselves out of wins in order to train NT beasts? More wins for me, and if I don't need one of their hugely expensive players to move up divisions, so much the better. I'll grow some good ones of my own along the way.

High-level teams can't afford to pay for the best players? Not my problem, since I'm not there yet, but obviously it hasn't kept those teams from achieving.

The only real gameplay issue seems to be national teams being populated by players that don't play in the better leagues in their countries. I agree that this is unrealistic and is a good reason, standing alone, to regulate farming. Perhaps the solution, rather than institute a salary cap to control the providers, is to go after the facilitators. Prohibit national teams from acquiring players whose salaries are more than X times the average salary of their team, and make X some number calculated to eliminate the possibility of a team with one guy at $100K and 6 or 7 guys at $5-6K placing their superstar on the national team.

This will actually open up NT participation to more people in lower divisions, not fewer, and will only shaft the people who farm.

I would better agree that NT player should play at least in div 3 team, not lower...

Or for example make something like div 4 max players wage not more then 20k, div3-35k, div2 50k, div1- no limit...

this would create at least something that would control the situation...
