I love this game. Nothing more to say

I would love to get around 10k euros each year in exchange for fake promises and incompetence.
Well, in fact I would not accept the money because I would feel very bad myself if being such an incompetent.
But that doesn't seem to matter to BB-Marin.

what it earns mostly goes towards maintaining it.

False. There are games like this that are completely free.

deal with accusations, insults, and anger

No, he doesn't deal with anything of that. In fact, he doesn't even read this forum. He only reads the threads in bug forum with a title like "I want to buy supporter but I can't". Those are the only threads that he reads and addresses.

just to insult marin daily

I' was banned out of the forums for two weeks, decided to take a break from the game and now I have a new team.
For me this is a sociological experiment. I am surprised of people being fooled again and again by the same corrupt politicians and keep voting them. The same way, people keep supporting BB-Marin. There has to be something in human psychology that is very wrong, and I want to understand what it is.

Well, maybe if we see the bill of the server it is not free at the end of the month.
I have no idea how much money goes to hosting expenses, but I think it is not exactly free.

Servers go very badly in this game. I already have lost two players because the players database chokes at seemingly random times. And of course the scheduled simulation events often go painfully slow.

There can be two reasons for this:
a) the servers are very cheap servers, maybe even free servers.
b) BB-Marin is unable to maintain a database properly.

I think that the answer is both of them.

I am giving a try to hardwood college basketball

Its game engine is similar to BB's. And it is in active development.

It has recruitment and experience instead of training or trading. Much more realistic.

But I don't know if the idea of "college basketball" will engage many European users.

Buenas tardes caballero.
No suelo escribir en estos foros, y en este caso lo hago en español (I apologize for not writing the post in English).
Creo que es tan "similar", que yo creo que está inspirado en BB... tanto que en las normas te habla de que escribas BB-Mails... a ver si va a estar Marin detrás también del otro juego y le estás dando publicidad (por cierto, creo que acción prohibida, pero ¡qué más da!, ¿no?. Por eso lo escribo en español... entre otras cosas)

So you are addressing me, asking me questions and, before I answer you, you ignore me. OK, your respectable choice.

Well go to your other game then that's completely free.

= "go to Cuba/China if you don't like capitalism" Can't you see the parallelism?
This is my game/country/town and I would like it to be better, not going other place.
And I would expect other managers to want the same and fight for that, instead of fooling themselves into believing that they live in a good system.

compare him to corrupt politicians. Did he enslave your parents after taking over their family business, and implemented unfair taxes on your town?

Corrupt politicians take the job, making fake promises, to get easy money in spite of making their area of influence a worse place. Fair comparison.

Hardwood is inspired by BB, BB is inspired by HT ... you don't want to invent the wheel twice!

I would risk my life for HW's admin not being BB-Marin.
