1) So give your own fix...
1. If I had any I would have wrote it. Me not liking your suggestion doesn't mean I have a better one/different one.
I think this is an issue but not as impotent as you say it is.

A market failure is something that is worth fixing. Surely more than another page of statistics...

2) The fix for that is adjusting the already defined adjustments due to the players salary not being payed.
3) And in case we returning to the fact that it "does not fill like it is being adjust, and it seems that 5th place is better than the 4th", than try to join BB and fix it. They claim it does. [In this case I believe them].

you lost me in 2 3 and 4th.

Any manager that knows that will plan to make benefit of it.
Hence, it will be taken into consideration, and on any case once in about a season is a right time to replace your staff.
Hence, all of those who knows about this, and are in off-season during this time of the "year", will fire their staff and then buy new ones after a week.
Hence - a storm will happen.

All I get from that is that you like to say "Hence". that's the only fact I can take from this... "Hence - a storm will happen" might have been Nostradamus catch phrase :)

Again the repetition of the sentence

This is not real life, this is a game

.
And once again I will need to repeat that then let's stop the three pointers, the fouls and the money issue. This is "just a game".

Great. The teams in the NBBA will be there for life. Everyone else will create players and then when they turn 21, if they're any good, they'll leave and you'll get nothing. Sign me up!

How does that answers anything?
There is no reason in Staff payment on current market definition.

If you are going to resort to extreme counterexamples when people bring up the legitimate issue that this is, in fact, a game rather than real life, you certainly should not be surprised to see the same extreme examples of the "make it like real life" argument brought up as a counterbalance.

I'd like to invite you to the happy medium, where we realize that realism is a good thing in some scenarios, but as this is primarily a game, one must put the issues of game balance at the top of the hierarchy. When game balance issues do not interfere, of course, more realism is great! Heck, this suggestion by itself isn't even a problem - I don't see any reason it's necessary to not pay staff but I don't see any reason the change is really necessary either. I don't see it as being a problem with balance either way. I just find that if you're using realism as the primary arguing point for a game design change, it's not a winning argument.

Assuming you did not understood here it once again.
The BBs said that for the unfairness of 5th place VS 4th place (due to PLAYERS salary payment) is handled by the affect of that place on the Fan-Survey of next season.
Hence, the same increase of unfairness you claimed will happen, will be handled by the same means - increasing the affect of the place at which a team finishes at on the Fan-Survey.

I don't feel that issuing such a change should be dealt by increasing the effect in fan survey of next season.

I see I will need to repeat what I wrote just above...
If the documents state that the world is flat, but it does not fit into the way the market/world works... then it IS a BUG. [Galileo Galiei]
The fact that this is what is written does not make it the right thing or the sole true.

I don't know what you think you are proving, but surely it does not contradicts the sentence above that you quoted.

Let's define it the right way (as implied on your previous posts);
You don't like the BBs current solution regarding the player salary difference between 4th and 5th place, using the Fan-Survey.
Hence, the above is not a reason for why not implying the suggested addition, but a statement that you don't like the BBs solution regarding the unfairness of player salary payment by 4th place teams in comparison to the 5th place that do not pay it.
Hence (because you like this word), this is irrelevant to this suggestion.

If the documents say the world is round, and the world is round, but a certain user thinks the round should instead be a dodecahedron, is it a bug?

Staff currently receive a salary in the offseason. Neither of us have access to any internal design documents from BB. We do have access to the manual, which I have linked to and quoted, and it does not in any way say that staff will not receive salaries when there are no competitive games. The manual says staff salaries increase weekly, in practice staff salaries receive weekly, and "Pini does not like this" does not make it a bug.

Hence again?
No it's just me saying that I don't think that another addition to the game that helps team that doesn't have a competition game and then make the effect of fan survey bigger to counter it is wrong...
