BuzzerBeater Forums

I've had no such troubles...

Me neither. Makes me wonder where I've gone wrong with my poor trainee.

i don't mind getting mails. if i did, i shouldn't be a GM, we get a ton of them, often with good questions or managers seeking some advise concerning unclear parts of the rules. So the red figure doesn't botter me at all.

However, what i do mind is a guy from IV saying he's interested in acquiring Kaiser and offered 1.5M for him. not only do i find it a pretty tasteless joke ( since i went out of my way to recrute him for 2M) but i've always worked training him turning him into the future core of my team. i'm building a team around him and 2 other players, so i find it disrespectfull to go behind the back of the U21 or NT manager to recrute a player without there knowledge (or them informing the manager that there is genuine interest for there player). The fact that that manager was smart enough to try to recrute a player from a GM shows that he's either got guts or no brains at all. (altho i prefer to look at him having guts instead of being braindead).

Should anyone encounter a simular problem where someone who isn't a NT staff member is asking them about information there player, feel free to push the report spam button. it will be dealt with swiftly.

(as for the poor chap with guts, let's just say that i doubt he's going to pull off that stunt again any time soon after the warning i gave him)

guys, you still do not know that some people in this game, are over emotional? it is the same as in the real world, some people speak the truth and some people (even ones that have or believe they have) with power talk a lot off crap.

it is a shame that there is no ignore option for certain peoples posts on the forums, because with certain people, every time when i read their bull crap posts, i have to cringe...

i am not naming anyone at all, and not pointing my finger to anyone specific, lets wait and see whether I get punished once again by someone believing they have WORLD POWER

I understand that you probably can't simply ignore incoming mail because you're a GM, but you seem to be sore because one guy from another country (not England, as we have no D.IV) has been disrespectful to you.

I obviously don't have the information, however since this guy is most definitely not from England, I find it hard to believe that he definitely found the information regarding NT prospects on the English forums. Even if he did, how is your situation different compared to any manager with NT caliber players? How did that list you were complaining about make your life worse? Anyone can just check U21 games from the past to identify who the starters were for each and every season.

Hopefully the guy will not follow up with a new email and we can all carry on happily enjoying the game.

Funny, that made me cringe.

i am not naming anyone at all, and not pointing my finger to anyone specific,

Also funny, because I could see where your finger was pointing.

the mirror?

(I love you really Astra!)

i know you do... i knew you shout from the rooftops every time i loose.

i am dutch and we always speak up our mind, cant help it

and i like you too, this game would be a lot less cool with you on board...

Fwiw, I agree with you and Marwood, the belgian lad is being a bit precious here, and threatening players with a spam report because they've low balled you with an offer is a bit unnecessary.

Also, hope things are improving for you IRL.

being GM or not has little to do about how i'd feel about that list. However, the moment it got put on the forum, i was expecting someone to attempt to recrute a player.

this is the difference between you and me. I don't write stuff down on the forum, without first checking the facts. There are a couple of players (i'd say close to 30% of the 21y old haven't been on the U21 team, or have featured in scrims. U don't go looking for those players. u always go after the guy's who played regular games, since those were considered to be the best of their generation.

Had that list not been shown, several players wouldn't have even been known. Sure, the lad could have gone through the U21 history. but that is way to time consuming. easier is to read a forum, stumble upon a list and just ask. IT's how skilltheft was accomplished in the past. Altho, considering what a young BB manager u are, u probably weren't around when that was a big issue.

Either way, i've dealt with my little problem. all i'm asking for is to see the name of Kaiser removed from that list, untill he is no longer part of my team (which isn't likely going to happen any time soon). Those close to the U21 and NT know his name, so i'm not really worried that they'd forget about him. I'd just like to see his name removed, and should any other managers feel the same way, i'd suggest they'd make it known through the forum or a mail to LA-Vecx
