BuzzerBeater Forums

And yet another italian thread was closed by a foreign Gm... if you look better you can still find two or three more that might not be totally within the rules.
But ok, rules are rules as I hear many saying.

What I really don't get is why forum rules do not apply to federations? There you can find early-bid requests, players request, players evaluations, players ads, etc.
Considering that federations are only open to supporters, I find this really unfair against non-supporters.

has anyone noticed that everyone except the italians have lost interest in this thread? lol

maybe because you can still post TPE request, advertise players and request early bids in a place where those rules aren't enforced and even GMs (in the last few days GM-worthy42, GM-chewbrian, GM-Labude, GM-JohnnyB and GM-somdetsfinest) KEEP DOING IT instead of closing the threads

lol

Sorry Mark, but I haven't made one of the posts in the last few days.

I have never suggested people stay away from the forums. I think that anybody who wants to create a federation to increase their enjoyment while on the site should do so. Whether it is an "I love the Golden State Warriors" thread or an "Italians are the only people that matter or know anything" thread is inconsequential to me. Using the forums and being part of a federation are not mutually exclusive.

If you have ANY question about the game, please feel free to send me a bbmail and ask. I am more than willing to help out as much as I can, you or anybody else.

I have, in fact, read every single word of this thread, your posts included, and you have offered not one solution or idea that I can see. Your first few posts were demanding a return of the old system. Then you groused a bit, then you asked if a solution had been found, and then you said that you thought one of the ideas tabled was a good one.

I am not trying to be argumentative, adversarial, or anything like that. I do not, contrary to what you or anyone else thinks, feel on a power trip because I help process sign-ups and cheating allegations for this site. I have no problem personally with anyone on these forums. I don't think that traffic in the Italian forums has fallen off like some have claimed (and others have refuted with sarcastic posts) and I don't think that Italians are any worse off than any other supremely disadvantaged enormous country with a thriving community, highest level of competition, and thousands of players on the TL at any point in time.

The point of this thread should be to find a solution that works for everyone. People have mostly used it as a hate fest, or a puff-out-your-chest-we-can-do-it-ourselves platform, both of which are lame and completely useless. Others have made suggestions, some of which I think are pretty good. I am going to respectfully bow out of any more posting because I feel like the argument has become circular and unproductive, and I don't want to be a part of that kind of exchange.

I played bb since third season and I think this is a great online game! today for the first time I thougt to leave it! I think that I'm not the only one! if someone who like this game like me though to leave it I think you can lose a lot of users next weeks!
I hope that my english isn't so bad! sorry I'm so tired and I wrote this message quickly bye

Leave it-nobody's forcing you to stay...
If you honestly think such posts will make any diffirence i suggest stop posting here..
Anyway why this thread hasn't been closed yet,there is no good suggestions just pure complaining..

this is not the suggestion forum buddy, but the global discussion forum. so i believe that user can post here to DISCUSS even if they don't have suggestions. if you wanna read those, this is the place you are looking for (22297.1)
while i agree that a lot of posts here are not very smart, there are also people who are expressing their opinion in a rational way and debating about how the BB-forums should/could be handled. don't miss them!

sort of ironic, this look like a complain to me :)
