This is very important, yes. I failed to mention it and I stand corrected, thanks. As for the rest...

First off, I didn't suggest bumping or beefing up player's ratings. I said that they could be edited based on their real life stats, which is a completely different thing altogether. In fact, in some cases, player ratings go way down from they were before. Not all go up.
Secondly, I said I usually leave potential ratings alone, not that they must be left alone. That said, I've never had any player revert after recalc only because I left his potential ratings untouched and I've been playing this game for a few years now.
