Training is easy and profitable these days.

Here's why it is profitable for day traders:

...people really don't understand training speed, age and potential.

...so they are easy to scam.

And THAT is because they are looking for something logical from training, and finding BB/Hattrick instead.

While you guys stroke one another, Rome is burning.

I am not scamming people on the list

I didn't say you were. I was talking about newbie managers being easy to scam, no more no less. I have never even looked at your transfers. No need to get all offended when no one accused you of anything.

you can easily find guys that are already half trained in secondaries and/or out of position by height and just buy them and train the primaries appropriate to height

Yeah, I think that is pretty true. The trouble is, they are too expensive for their qualities and getting more expensive all the time now that Marin is trying to push up prices to make training more profitable than ever.

I don't like absolutions from you and lemon about what is and is not possible. What HAPPENS I can agree with. People aren't able to profit from training. People aren't able to understand how to acquire talent, train talent, build their roster/finances etc. These are ideas you can put forward that I can support.

I'm more against changing the rules so that you force prices to rise rather than addressing the real, underlying, problems.

I think the game needs to cater more to how people actually play than how the BBs think they should or know they can.

Well I don't disagree at all with this. I'm simply arguing that there is always a back option for everyone. If you force people into a way of playing, they may not understand it or they may not like it. Forcing higher prices through actively affecting the economy is not popular in any way as we've seen. Now, there are some (a minority) who are happy with prices rising because they think they can make even more money. I personally think it is not a good thing because it's unpopular and some people will quit or be extremely unhappy when pushed too far.

I'm saying: rather than fiddle with the economy, do address the alleged problems behind those changes directly. I don't understand why you would push people into a situation they don't like, not because that's what you want, but to serve a secondary purpose (make training more appealing...). Make your trainees play better for you than they would for other teams, for example. Change the training system, I don't know. There are many way you can influence directly the areas of the game you want to affect.
