BuzzerBeater Forums

Well, I am spanish and maybe I am going to say and exageration but I don´t see why all countries need to have the same rules at 100% relating to threads.
BB-Charles said that has been proved that scrimmages-ads threads don´t give any competiive advantage nor in game results-tactics nor in TL selling prices.
So if Italians have these threads and spaniards don´t we have them is a problem? not for me. Is only a functional advantage.
Its very curious for me to see people for other nationatilitys out of their minds thinking that Italians can have something they don´t. It´s really so important for you? I don´t understand.
If italians are interested in manteinig them and Italian GM are interested in support them I don´t see the problem.
I think that BB-Charles himself said a contradiction when he spoke about this subject because 1º he said that those threads don´t make a difference in the game. But later he said that he can´t let them open in some countries and shut them in others because in would be some kind of discrimination. But hey, you have said that those threads are not important parts of the forums, so where is the discrimination?

after all, why should a nepalese user care about what goes on in the italian boards?

I don't care at all... but posting this in global forum kinda made it a global problem

Dude, You're talking about a place to organize scrimmage. Call it a competitive advantage seems to be a great exaggeration!

I am talking about transfer ads. While it was not the subject of the thread, the original poster seemed to be talking about ads in general, at least that's how I read it. Many others in this thread also talked about transfer ads.

If you just want to talk about scrimmage ads, I do not really care too much about those and would be willing to "live and let live" there. But I personally prefer the new system, especially the part for supporters which allows you to find a team whose flag you do not have.

You talk about a feature that is useful only for those who pay. My point of view and make the game easy for the first season to all.

In the same view, I positively evaluate the comparison transfers allowing users to not generate false sense tenders without the "compare transfers".

Personally, since it was turned off in Italy i receive at least 3-4 BBmail each day for doubts that have like sender users of V or IV.

If the way is this, the BB should urgently put his hand on the tool making it less generic and distorting the market. It is too simplistic and often misleading as evaluation. According to me the better way was leaving the post and turn it off when the tool will be more "intelligent" and useful.

You talk about a feature that is useful only for those who pay.

If you think this feature should be opened up to everyone, I would support such a move if you think it would resolve the issue. On the other hand, I think most supporters want some bang for their buck. If you do not like supporters getting extra features, I think there was another thread on that at some point.

In the same view, I positively evaluate the comparison transfers allowing users to not generate false sense tenders without the "compare transfers".

Now, forgive me if I understood this wrong, but this sounds like a complaint about the transfer price estimate (TPE). I also do not like it, and if you want to start another thread about how the TPE has flaws, I will also agree with you. I do not get what it has to do with the issue at hand, though.

my point of view in general is linked to the possibility of removing the post only if there are services that are truly effective and simple to use.

At the moment, it was said that the posts are closed to prevent overloading of GM and Mod. But if the services that the game is not effective then the effects are 2:
- Increase in BBmail users who are more active on the forum help (and I believe that the predicted benefit is zero)
- An early abandonment of the game of the users who do not understand how to move in the game

BB is a nice game but a the beginning is not easy to understand. At first I thank people like Mark Lenders who answered my questions so often and made my life here easier.
This shows that the heart for the success of the game is communication because it is the only instrument capable of covering the flaws of a game young and still imperfect.

According to me, who said that new tool are good don't have the newbe's point of view. The game IS NOT easy to understand and some tool ARE NOT useful or easy to find!

This is my opinion.

Sorry, but I am trying to figure out how transfer ads help people to learn the game. I think there is something that I am missing here.

Agreed,plus i doubt many people are rushing to post a transfer ad when they start...Alot of people even dont use forums when they first enter the game...

I speak of the forum for evaluations and for scrimmage.

I understand the forum on the transfers it is unfair for the market but at the same time I now ask everyone:

the ad transfer post to facilitate exist even in federations (which are only accessible to supporters => a minority). Take away too? Otherwise you make a double injustice!

Now i expect that BB will turn them off in the name of the justice for all!!

I'm locking this thread for now.

We clearly see there's a problem here, but this thread didn't go nowhere in the last 50-100 posts or something. If you got any good suggestions, other than in this thread, or if you think we missed some good points, please contact me directly via BB-Mail so that we are sure to not miss any important words.

We will be looking for a good solution for this problem asap. Thanks for your input.
