1) Why?
2) What are you talking about anyways?

What do you mean by "Inquiring"? There´s no such thing as an "Inquiry" button you can push. Either you call him up, or you don´t. Either you sack him, or you don´t. Where is your two different actions?

It´s like passing through a door. If you go through a door, the pure information "passing the door" is triggered, no matter if you´re going to the grocery, if you´re up for a date or if you simply forgot your keys and you´re about to pass the door again soon in the other direction (in case you realize before shutting it, if you don´t, then again you might not pass it anytime soon).
As I wrote, and as I haven't been a NT coach, this action can be upon two options:
1) Inquiring and adding.
or
2) Adding and removing.
So, it is performed upon the second option. OK... So?
Send a message upon Adding, and a message upon Removing.
It will make the message mean what actually happened.

Adding the message get kicked out of the team, would make it in my eyes worse.
Why? This is a message that defines what have happened.

That makes it even worse. You get roughly two times the (pointless) messages necessary. Great improvement.

How about instead giving out messages once a player actually PLAYS in the NT?

1) Currently when a player is actually added to a NT you get two messages.

2) The idea of the news board is to get actual real news.
A player that is being added or removed to the NT is news.

3) Regarding getting the message only when the player is actually playing in the NT.
I think I would like to know that my player is being considered for the NT, so I would like current message that actually informs that.
In addition, I agree that "player played in NT" is something that will be nice to add to this board as well.

1) No you don´t. You get ONE if your players is appointed. At least during the season.

Key problem is, that during the first weeks of a season, players are not kept in the NT, but "scouted" by appointing them, then firing. So you might get called up numerous times until you finally "stay".

I know...
This is what this thread is all about.
Did you read the description of the thread (AKA the first message)?

The solution is to have one message for scouting (not a must), one for appointing (already part of the news box) and one for removing (a must) a player from a NT.
I would also would suggest that the action of a NT manager will actually be called scouting and not joining and then removing.

There is no Scouting. It´s the same event. How about simply "disabling" the promotion notes until the elections are over and the tournament begins instead?

No, you get two messages if a player is called twice.

Anyway, this is another thread that has degraded into pointless repetition. The suggestion is out there, this can be closed.
