if this is one of the rule,i have to say this game will go bankrupt sooner or later.

The server downtime is not planned and you need to take the risk by yourself. if it is a game in china, it will not last for a month.

can we write to G.M?

Putting a low starting price can be a good strategy; it attracts a lot of buyers and leads to bid wars. This is the reason why Free Agents often sell for tons of money. Anyways, BBs correct sales when the price is too high so why can't they do it when the price is too low, due to server issues. Otherwise they're unfairly rewarding some teams, while hurting others.

It's clear that BB has been encountering a lot of problems lately. Twice this season already, servers have gone down. Prior to this season this used to never happen. Also, people have been complaining about attendance being calculated incorrectly for a few weeks now.

Marin seems to view these issues as random bugs that just come up, but the question is why are all these bugs now happening so frequently. I don't think it's so random and it definitely points to deeper issues.

Well consider this message which is displayed before you sell your player:

If you feel you have received an unreasonable sale price for this player (or just want to be on the safe side), it is your responsibility to make a formal report as soon as possible.

The player in question was sold for an unreasonably low price, which unfairly hurts the seller, while rewarding the buyer. Anyways, the reason the rules only explicitly mention overbidding is because underbids are prevented by the market: if a player's price is too low, other users will raise the price. The reason it didn't happen in this case is because of server issues.

How can you disagree? A manager is playing this game for ages and knows how stable it is. And now he's complaining about something even written in rules? These affairs occur during almost every shutdown and after 10 years of playing you should be aware of that. It's always risky to sell your player for 1 $. This game is in the same condition from the beginning. There is no reason to think it's gonna get better miraculously.

That message tells the manager to report an unreasonable price for the GMs to investigate the cause of the bid and avoid cheating. But in this case we know the cause of the unreseanable price, so the reporting is unnecesary.

You don't know why the site crashed. Maybe it was that user trying to get players dirt cheap, but maybe you know for a fact that wasn't the case because you or someone you know crashed the site. Which is it?
