I have never fired one of my players. I have released them, mutual agreement, shake hands and good luck in your new life, be it in a new team or retirement. Because I have respect for my players and I treat them with gratitude ^^

I don't know why the suggestion is needed. There is already a good system handling retirements.
The game doesn't retain players, managers do. If the player is deemed useful for someone, he'll be bought and stays in the game, if not he is retired.

There are heavily trained players who have hit their 30s now. They will lose skills but can still be very useful for some teams. It should remain the manager's choice if he wants older players or not. A bit of experience is sometimes unvaluable.
Good old players who are starting to lose skills is an important new component of the gameplay. It opens new ways of managing the team and it is creating a balance in the players "database"... and on the court too...

It shouldn't change, absolutely not.

those superstar players that exist now (300k+ salaries), will probably play on a very high level until their mid 50s or so, I dont think that would be such a great view...

There are very few of them compared to the number of 30 years-old and + players and they are a different problem.

Do you really believe this will happen or are you looking for an argument ? :)

No kidding :DDDD

You are selling for twice the price a 34 yo C you bought a few days ago and a 34 yo SF for triple the price !
You are not helping those players to go in retirement, you know ?
Why don't you put in accordance what you do and what you want for the game ?

The problem is not the older players but what you are doing, scoping the TL to buy back the cheapest high salary ones and take advantage of newbies and careless users.

If there is a change, it should be something to stop your wheeling and dealing.

So your point of view is "let me do something I know is bad then ask for a rule to punish me and have a go at those who think it's unnecessary".

It is not important whether those users are newbies or experienced but not really good at dealing...

The prices of players should not vary to much between selling and buying.
With (of course) the exception on whether they had been trained.

When I'm writing "should not be varied", I mean that the variation should be small (10-20% top, and should not be a way of making big money).
This game is about BB-managing, and not about BB-agent, or BB-eBay.

And thanks to you and Manouche, we have a proof for WallyOop, who claimed that there aren't cases like that...
