It's not the duty of that "new feature" to care about what the manager does with it. It's about giving us the tools, the responsibilty what you do with it is still up to the manager.

I don't expect the new feature to care, however the developers need to. I think encouraging financial irresponsibility would be a bad idea. Why do new users get extra money for several weeks, instead of one big lump sum. Because they'd spend it badly.

In your idea, you're talking about front loading most of your team's income before the start of the season. If my first point isn't enough, I'll add that prices on the transfer list will go up in those weeks, and be lower markedly through the rest of the season. A bad idea all round.

I never said anything about your idea meaning more money in the game. I assumed you meant you'd just get the money at the beginning of the season, and that would be instead of, not in addition to, your gate money.

In reality, season tickets generally are cheaper than tickets for individual games. So really your idea should include a discount for season tickets. I don't really like that idea either.

In your idea, you're talking about front loading most of your team's income before the start of the season.
In my little example calculation I'm talking about 360.000 $ ( at least in my specific case) - so I'm not sure what you're talking about.
By the way, the prices for players aren't stable throughout a whole season and never have been.

In reality season tickets serve the purpose, to be able to calculate for the upcoming season and invest in advance. As i said, but again for people, that don't want to read carefully the first time, we're talking about a little amount of money (something around the earnings of 1 home game) which will be compensated by reducing the future attendance numbers a little bit.

Last thing, you only can spend the money that you have. If you invest into too expensive players, you'll have to sell them. If you go broke on such simple circumstances, you're propably not capable of playing an online manager game. So "protecting the new managers" isn't an argument in my eyes. (the money from season ticket holders in league 4 would be something around 100k, not the big money, if you aks me)

Bye

No and i think that i made that point clear with one my hundreds of posts, trying to explain it in different ways, so that even the last "talk against, just to talk against" guy understands,

It's about equal chances. Do i have to write it a g a i n? Just for you? Once again for you?
