PT isnt even 2 years old, so we're all learning as we go.

As always, if you have ideas you'd like to share, my PM's are open
Hey Kris,

Sorry if my posts made you think engaging in this thread was a mistake--not at all my intent. I've been involved with other games before where players are allowed to openly flaunt TOS to gain a distinct advantage for either themselves or others, and I have learned to see that in whatever game I'm in.

I brought up the NC Dinos example because that has been pretty well proven to be a tanking team. Much better cards in reserve on off years, being played only against clearly inferior competition. Fact is, none of us knows what is being done behind the scenes: Maybe they've been warned, maybe you've locked in their current team for all time, we just don't know. And I think that's where the frustration comes (at least from me): There's a team that's been shown to be tanking without any doubt, and we can't tell what, if anything, has happened. Have they been warned? How long do they have post-warning to get their %h!t straight? What actually happens if they refuse to "play nice" once that grace period goes by?

Hell, I'm a new player here and loving the game (in all of its forms). I'm not especially upset about the tanking per se, if only because I've put in relatively little $$$ compared to some. (Took enough to get two teams through the Live Missions before the prices went through the roof.) In all honesty, the selfish part of me wants a tanker in my division, but my better angels want the game fair for all. (Why should I pick up 3x the PP as a team that only has a tanker in its conference, but not division?) I guess what I'm trying to say is that overall, I admire the job that's been done here. Just a little more explanation as to what actually happens, and what the timeframe for that "what" is.

Thanks!
