They are still EASY replacements for the backups you have. For real, they are not that good compared to what you have, but for the other teams who probably have and allround inept player. Especially since the game is young.. we don't have many prominent players... that is why at this time it's free give aways for the rich people. They are in our eyes good players at this moment. Why not just let the game grow normally.

Curious that an undefeated team in Holland's top league knows so much about what bottom division teams can and can't afford. I'm gonna have to agree with jprochnow and brianjames here. The prices of these bot players are, for the most part, pretty dang cheap.

Oh, that reminds me. You have BB-mail. Do you really think I could've bought that center from a human team for only $34k?

At what price though.. that's the point. They'll sell the players at probably equal as they bought the good once since they can control the economy that way. That is how it's gonna work. Good teams buy the good players... sell their old ones... make a profit and the poor teams will get a player that's probably overpriced.
With this system.. The richer get richer... the poor just get to be poor with a few leftovers.

You fail to understand the meaning of 'let the game grow by itself'. I'm not saying you should NOT go to the TL or you should get good players only by training. You can easily let the players grow from training. One team trains focuses on inside the other on inside. That way players grow 'naturally'. The other team buys the other teams trained outside players. I don't even know why I'm explaining this. This is just a matter of common sense. Just put 2 and 2 together.

I don't have any objections about the transfers.. the only problem i have is that the release of botified players will eventually effect the community. I find it ironic that no one really thought this through before implementing. Now that's it's implemented.. people are trying to find excuses to keep it alive. You can't deny it does have an impact on the community. There is no major reason to let the botified players on the TL. NT players i understand, but the botified ones i don't. There is no way a team will make reasonable profit by selling a player in his team who's less skilled that the ones on the botified market.

And by the by.. when you quote... give a proper argument on that particular quote. Quoting me on "Normally these kinds of players wont see the day light in the TL." and answering with "And the money they rich teams didn't spend would what, disappear? They'd still have the money so that at some point, they would snatch up the smaller supply of good players." is not even remotely valid.

Read... They sell the old players for about the same amount as the ones they bought. Buy good players for 500k ... sell the old ones for 500k.

Let me again point out that these players are, by and large, really not that good.

I agree.
In fact, barely one season in, and I've yet to see a reason to go onto the transfer market and replace any of my players.
All I've done since join is sell and sack a few players.

I don't know whether I was particularly lucky with my starting roster, but if it weren't for the television games my club would fold (it appears to be quite difficult to sell out and cover expenses when you first start off, I have only just filled my arena the last game I had (unexpanded), and even then I'm not even close to covering fortnightly wages - once that 50k/week disappears, noobs are struggling).

So if they are not that good, then why have national teams that are showcasing this talent? If they are not that good, then why bring them back into play? If they are not that good, then what does that say about the players each team has.

I am pretty sure the retention rate of teams is very low right now and it just doesn't make sense to put the quality players back in play. Allow the players who are developing their players to develop the players. Just because we don't have any players above level 10 in a 20 level game is nothing to sneeze about. HT has that prime issue with Divine players. Whats going to happen when in Season 5 you run into the same problem?

Players will reach the next tier in time. As you tell us users, be patient.

Sure because you have better players - I would say the same thing to a person who was complaining about a bunch of mediocre and inepts.
