I agree it can be a problem of some users who expect fast results.

It affects everybody at start in the same way.

But that is they way the BB is built.

You need time to achieve your goals the same way you need in other online games.

I guess it's normal.

Who said i like playing alone?

Who said its fun to play with bots?

Who said i like tanking?

I've been "out" for almost a year, due to lack of time.
And trying to return now.
It is obvious i had to sell the players. Why should i keep them, if i was just logging not to loose the team...
(Looking to the past, if I had kept them probably i would sell them now for much more money because the BB market has very high prices now.)
But not relevant. I "stopped" for +- a year, and I am now trying to regain interest playing BB because i also have a little more time to do it.
Let's see how it goes (I have made some good friends here).

Just respect other opinions.
Something it seems you can't do (just read you words).

Tanking is not always about the money. Sometimes you just get tired of tactics and strategies and just want to take a break of all this. Going bottom offers it to you plus the opportunity to start something new - my way to restore the motivation and passion about Buzzer.

Then it should be ok if you don't make money from tanking since that's not the reason why you're tanking! (y)

About that:
"

Do not forget that the money comes from "lots of work" and lots of time spent playing the game (for some, a few years already).

So, a tax with the intention of "grabbing" that money (that, in fact, is the result of time spent and dedication to the game) is extremely unfair.

It is the same, as saying: "sorry, i know you spent lots of time in the game but you can't have the money you made while playing it for such a long time respecting its rules".

"

I can't agree with that.
The tax can be easily made so if you were a great team that want to rest- the tax will not reduce your money- it will cut the profit so the day you come back- you stay with the same amount of money.

This is why I believe should be made- by using the fans...

I stopped for 16 months myself... Real life hits you hard sometimes...

But, I didn't sign in periodically to keep my team afloat hoarding up piles of sum. I let my team go bot. I built it up once from scratch and I could do it again. I didn't need it to hoard up millions of dollars basically making me a new user but with larger arena and way larger starting bankroll.

For me personally I didn't need to take the easy path like that. I didn't need what I personally consider an unfair advantage over other "new" users.

I don't need a winning lottery ticket to make my start vs others. I can see why a lot of people do choose this path or would do it. We are a microwave society where we want instant gratification. People don't like putting in hard work or earning things the right way particularly when there is an easy button path that, while not illegal and not breaking the rules, is a loophole of sorts in programming.

Any time there's a competitive advantage from loopholes there will always be people who deflate balls or whatever other cheating they can get away with. And there will always be people that don't see the need to cheat.

Luxury taxes in real life were designed so that teams in larger market cities of whom had more rich of an owner wouldn't be able to just buy a championship every year vs every other team. It was made so that (in theory) every team had an equal fighting chance.

Whether that's an expansion team just recently created or a team that had been around for 100+ years.

NOBODY CARES WHEN YOU STARTED. People just want the SAME FAIR CHANCE TO WIN AS YOU

I think we all agree that the problem is not cutting people money,
it's just reduce the profit from tanking, as much as possible.
I offered doing that by using the fans- make them upset and stay at home during games- what do you have more guys?
Practically.

And I agree with you on that still

That's the way to go in my opinion.
