My thoughts on shutting down 22 servers before 24

I have just recently fallen in love with OOTP. I bought the game when it came out.... havent played it since.

Recently have been playing OOTP22. Very few if any of my missions or challenges have been completed. Think it is a great game, but very disappointed with your organization.
How can you shut down a sports game server from 1 season prior?
This is nothing short of a MONEY GRAB.
I am not going to update to 23 for playoffs.... then have to buy 24 because you are shutting down 23...
Your effort to accommodate the casual fan is terrible
I can fire up The Show from last year and Diamond Dynasty is still accessible.
Your business model is crap and is now souring me on the game itself,

Before you p*** on the company, you should know that if you'd read the many threads on this from the beginning of the season, it's not an internal decision. Their back-end provider bugged out on them and the work to change it to the incoming one was prohibitive.

It usually helps if you know history before judging. Been playing this game for 18 versions, and their level of involvement with us end users is unmatched. Plain and simple, they got ****ed and had no options.
