I'm pretty sure Alonso used a wrong term for this whole matter - we're not dealing with "cheaters", we're dealing with a simple case of "abuse".

And we've already had plenty of such cases, like full scale tanking and the old case of day-trading. Were they considered cheating? Nope. Were they considered an abuse and an unhealthy feature of the game? Yep. So it got changed just like that.

You don't have to be a genius in economics, to understand that scalping should not exist. In the real world, you will get fined if you buy 30 tickets to Ariana Grande or whatever for 10 bucks and then sell them 10 days later for 300 bucks each. I bet such people also "understand how economics work" . The arguments given about this being ok are just borderline ridiculous.

Both of that players were meant to stay at my roster un order to rebuild my team. I have a group of friends here on BB that can tell you that its true.

Salvador sahuquillo was a player that just to stat i bought at 2 am le something like that and were supossed to be sold around 200k and 400 k. He was an spanish HOF 18 year old 218 cm with 11 IS and 7 un each ID, Reb and BS . In the time at muy club he Jump rebound Up to 10, ID 8 and plus 1 in passing. Did i make a bit of a profit ? Yes, butni was buildong my new guys and then move to some spanish trainies once i draft a good player. I have the training historial un other to back what I dais here.


Krusha spent another month in my squad before i decided to move from this trainies. 18 y HOF 201 cms, you know that they are not cheap and that the players that are in the concepto of the problema of the day trading are mostly older and always waaaaaay cheaper. Not 400 k that I pay.
His stats ?
7-5
7-5
5-2
5-4
7-5

As you can see thats not a rubbish player with high potencial. Thats a well rounded 18 y old that can grow. Hi Jump 9 in rebounb and 6 in BS.

So, No i'm not hipocrite. Your are doing populism trying to make me look that I did foul someone, and by the way Salvador sahuquillo was sold to an user active since season 6 and krusha to an user active for more than 6 seasons, two year of real life.

So dont even try to call me hipocrite in a desperate way to defend that waht you do os cheating. And of course if the BBs think that what I did was incorrent that I took advantage in aniway, i'm more than pleased to be penalised.

No. It was about training them in new teams.

Guys, read posts carefully without emotions and respect time and another's opinions, please.

That's fair, guess I misunderstood your point. But the fact that some player may be worth 3M after 7-8 seasons if trained properly, doesn't mean that he is worth 300k today.

I don't agree. Support you thesis and try to buy perspective youngster with potential hof currently (suited to your training plans). Of course, you can hit occasion, but generally it's not easy now.

I'm not sure what I have to prove. If you bought those players for 10-100k, why I couldn't have done the same for training purposes? I guess it's quite easy if you have 9 already. And let's not get even started about the fact that most of the managers don't buy trainees during mid-season.

But okay, there is currently 30 players that are 18-19 yo with 50+ TSP and HoF+ potential who are currently less than 200k and 17 of those players are less than 100k. And if we take the MVP's to this exercise, there's 77 players that are 18-19 yo with 50+ TSP and MVP+ potential who are currently less than 200k and 52 of those players are less than 100k. I think I could find someone that would suit my training and if not, then I would wait one week and check again.

No, I'm not.

The issue dicuss here is mainly buying players with high potencial for 10-50 k , and then selling them por 200k- 300 k. And you know exactly thats IS the true. The difference between that and what I did is huge, and as i explain i did pretend to maintain the players at first place. And i repeat i did something wrong, even if i didnt mean It, please fine my team.

So dont calle me hypocrite, cause i'm not. Or maybe you just dont understand what hypocrite means. Since season 19 here, and with most of my transfers i lost money. Should i look in you transfers list and ser how many moved moved you did ? 🤔🤔

Did you know that I have, not one, but 2 degrees in economy and business administration? Did you know that i'm studying to pasa the exams to get a Job in The spanish ministry of tax, wealth and treasure ? I think that you didnt know that. Am I and expert on the stock market? Not at all. Do I know the basics? Yes i do.

You are not taking advantage of the market of suply and demand.

In Spain after the finnacial crisis, banks and many investors where fine by the law for selling rubbish investments to old people, no knowledge of the market or no studies.

You are doing the same with new users thats has no idea of how the market works, the value of players etc...

Thats why this kind of moves should be fine and penalised in BB.

This topic its abour reselling rubbish youngsters, closer to 20 years that from 18, but anyway players with NO value for tons of money. This is not about selling players that actually are good, improved and are real projects and making a bit of a profit. This is about taking advantage of new players and as i said in my first post, my players were sold to a player with over 50 seasons and the second one to a player with over 2 real years of playing this Game.

So, as a final time I did NOT that.
