*** Official *** FBG's Goal Line Blitz Discussion Thread (3 Viewers)

What's the details on Lazer Noble? Is he really the Players Association guy? If he is, he is not behaving the way it was intended and I'd be happy to raise a stink about it (I've been active enough in the forums, that I have some "board cred"), if you give me more details.

 
He wanted a trade 2 times first time was he wanted to start and be involved in the passing game (TE) and I did that.and now harassed by this Lazer guys who only heard my players side. who said if he is not starting he will get involved. (im staring him before just cause he give us the best chance to win). but what if both of my TE said that so now one of them would magically be off my team because of this lazer guy.
I really think that unless they implement some sort of performance bonus system, there will be more and more of this. nobody wants to create a player only to watch him be buried on the depth chart...but yet, there are only so many starting positions to go around.
 
first GL to all the FBG teams in the playoffs.man I have a TO/Moss attitude problem with player on my team.He wanted a trade 2 times first time was he wanted to start and be involved in the passing game (TE) and I did that. now 3 days later he wanted to go to his friends team, so i tried to work out a deal but his friend was low balling, i juts wanted equal value on any position except QB, K, and P.now he contacted Bort and Lazer Noble, "GLBPA" i guess. but I don't like the fact that im a real nice owner to all my players and listen to there request and try to do what i can to help them if they want out. I redo all the deals so they always have enough to train.and now harassed by this Lazer guys who only heard my players side. who said if he is not starting he will get involved. (im staring him before just cause he give us the best chance to win). but what if both of my TE said that so now one of them would magically be off my team because of this lazer guy. I cant wait to get this guy out of the team. sorry just wanted to vent.anybody want a LVL8 TE and a LVL 5 DT? just joking I dont want any of you to have to deal with this.
lolI'd contact Bort about the GLBPA guy harrassing you and not even hearing your side of the story... I don't know, but I'm pretty sure that's not what they are there for...
 
Reading around the forums the GLBPA doesn't really exist yet, so this guy is just causing trouble. Feel free to report him to DD or Bort as posing as a GLBPA representative

that's what I thought when I read that... no way is someone in any official capacity suppose to act like that...

he first sent this and that was fine,
I was contacted by ######### regarding his desire to leave your team to be able to enjoy the game with some friends.

I had told him a couple days ago to try his best to settle this between parties without our involvement. We thought some messages explaining why he would like to be with friends would be enough for you. We all want the most enjoyment

Tower wants to be able to talk at work about their team with friends .You will be able to fill that position in FA I have seen comparable players already posting availability.

Allow this player to go and I will promise to get your Signing Bonus money repaid. Bort will only require a PM from you saying you agree and one from TowerofPower.

What my original thought for resolution was guaranteeing you one more season and then part ways. He said it was proposed already. Really see no reason why we can't be amicable and let him leave now, but if you really need him now at least allow him the chance to get out next year.

Please Respond

Thank you.
now I never heard of him, so I just replied with"who are you?"

and then he said this.

I am from the GLBPA

This isn't anything to worry about

We got a complaint about your player. I laid it all out for you in the first email.

There is no threat of action or anything of the like

Just had a complaint and I said I'll go to you and ask to let him go. Why keep someone who has no desire to be on that team? But its up to you. Unless the player gets benched for this, but you don't seem like that type.

We have a Thread in the INTRODUCTIONS forum if you want to take a look

Once again I am a rep that was asked to help.
I replied with thisI have an open door policy if anybody is low on money they will always have enough to train and I will and have restructured the deal.

this player had a gripe with his past owner, and asked to get traded 2 times in the span of 3-4 games, first reason was playing time and he got more after that. now he wants to be on his friends team.

I have been real accommodating with all my players. this is the only owner that something like this happened to.

We just finished our 5-0 season and won our first playoff game. I don't want to move anybody on the current roster until this playoff run is over. Before you were contacted I tried to trade him 2 times due to his request. and all I was looking was equal LVL value for just about any position except QB, P, and K. and I was willing to deal with me having another problem with a different owner. some I got here based on telling them that they would start and now I would resolve that issue. while still filling out his void.

I will use my current time while here to scout our next team and get ready for the next game. when the playoffs are finished I will focus more this.

and he also currently knows if he can get equal LVL value(ie. LVL8 TE for LVL8 RB) on any position he will get traded. with the last trade I offer him LVL8 TE(towerofpower) for his LVL8 LB, but the other owner rejected the offer.

Once again I did not want to get involved. He just came back and said he was being ignored.

I never doubted your management skills in the least. I also asked what he expected you to do while in the Playoffs.

You do what's best for your team. If you will attempt to find a replacement that is great.

Once again we are not pressing this issue, He's a starter and we won't "usually" interfere. He just wanted to make sure his voice was heard.

I'll let him know to be patient and maintain his player accordingly for a Playoff run.

thanks for your responses and Good luck
now next year I was going use my backup LVL4 TE until he can get close to LVL 8, and then i was going to drop the problem player.but I dont like being a good owner and having my arm twisted because of 1 bad apple.

Its not that big of a deal. im just trying to trade him away now to any team, but the next owner will have problems with him.

 
fwiw guys, I am part of the GLBPA. we have our own forum, etc. and are in constant discussion with Bort (not me, but others are) and we're looking to implement a minimum wage salary, a lot of new features (request release button in which case a request would be sent to the GLBPA to analyze, etc.).

and fwiw, we normally aren't supposed to involve Bort unless something very wrong is going on (lvl 3 starting over lvl 8 or a player not on depth chart, etc.).

you realize there already is a minimum salary, right?you just have to be smart enough to not sign a super long-term deal...

So far it just sounds like GLBPA wants to make trouble.

minimum salary is ridiculous...many players aren't getting half of what is needed for normal training.

not the case.
 
instead of a GLBPA I would not mind to have some kind of questioner at the end of the season for the players to answer about the GM. and then the site would know real well how each owner is doing. and each owner would make sure not to get to crazy.

I would love to have a rating system for GMs where players who have been on the team for 1 season would vote. and owners would get the same right. I know I would on the top like most FBGs would. and it would be even easier to recruit good talent.

players would have some protection that way. I don't need some 16 year sending me long emails on me how to run a team, and then saving a bunch of email from 1 angry owner to go to internet court.

I understand the need for some kind of protection to the player because there are bad owners.

now all this would do is just identify bad owners, i don't want to get into what should the punishment be.

no, actually, normal training is ridiculous...You realize that to train normal you are paying $190/level for like .04 points of an attribute point??? And that's assuming you are training one that is really low... If you are training an attribute you already ahve a lot of, its WAY less than .04 extra...The fact you actually think players should be able to train on "normal" every day shows just how absurd something like the GLBPA is...All normal training is is a way for idiot players to blow thier money and then demand money from idiot owners, thus creating good teams (those without the idiot players) and bad teams (those with the idiot players)...Anyone with an ounce of intelligence could tell that training anything but "relaxed" is a gigantic waste of time (especially when you are actually playing games)

I mean, seriously, what is the GLBPA going to do when they introduce posses and bling and random, useless, "fun" stuff that players can buy???

Are you gonna deman massive salary increases, or are you going to stop blowing your money on stupid crap that doesn't make you any better?

 
Alright, I want to get on one of these FBG leagues before next season. I realize I can't sign now, but I don't want to wait until it is too late to boost a guy during the first season. So, one of you uber-FBG owners, tell me what you need and I will make a guy, boost him, then sign at the beginning of season 2.

Then show me an agenda worthwhile. We already have a minimum salary. The "request release" button = the pm function. You haven't listed anything else.

I know you don't need to train on normal but you need to have enough money to train on normal or else when you get to level 8 you can't boost your items. before judging and insulting you might want to get your facts straight and think a little bit.

minimum salary is ridiculousrequest release button /= PM function. it would send a message to the databse to notify the GLBPA and the owner, then we'd be able to interact and work something out. most times a player actually tries to get a release but the owner is too stubborn or dumb to do anything.

Create one, but don't boost him right away. You get more points for training at Level 1 than at the higher levels. Although if you're not going to buy points, I suppose it won't really matter too much...

No, minimum salary is fine. In fact, it's a bit high.Why do you need a special button to send a message to someone, when you can just pm them? I really wish people wouldn't lobby for the time of the admins, when they have so many useful things to do with such little time.

many players don't even have enough money to boost items on lvl 8, don't tell me everything is just fine.People don't know who to PM (most users don't use the forum), the button would help out a lot of players.

Ahhh... your problem isn't with poor rules in place, it's with stupid people. Please don't blame the system on idiots that misuse the system. Seriously - who can't save that kind of money? Even a #### contract gives you a few hundred daily. How much does it cost to train? 50 bucks? 80 bucks at the most? And people don't know who to talk to about a problem? Does the message board ring a bell? GTFO. :goodposting:
 
Who cares. If the PA does great things or does nothing, it is not hurting anything and it gives the players a chance to get more involved in the game so that is a good thing.

well you don't want them to be sending PMs to owners and tell them if they bench this particular player they will get involved.

It's a pseudo-important organization that represents many voices. Due to the population of that organization, those voices with inane ideas such as those proposed above are more likely to be heard by the admins than a single person with one good idea. There are two admins and they are very far behind. We don't need to waste their time on other junk. :shrug:

Boosting items cost 2500$ per item (10,000$), add to that the training and the basic equipment and some people didn't have enough money to buy that.

It seems to me if there are intelligent people involved they can be used to filter out the crap so it isn't going thru to Bort and wasting his time.

It's not like I just created that opinion before I saw Champ's post. After I saw the top two issues they had - you can bet your ### good ideas get squashed pretty quickly.

My DT made $500/day from day one and he had MORE than enough to get his upgrade in equiptment when he hit level 8...My SS is on level 10 now, just got there 2 days ago, he was making $1000/day and he almost has $10,000 saved up already, and he didn't get any kind of bonuses or anything...

If you are training an attribute you already ahve a lot of, its WAY less than .04 extra...The fact you actually think players should be able to train on "normal" every day shows just how absurd something like the GLBPA is...All normal training is is a way for idiot players to blow thier money and then demand money from idiot owners, thus creating good teams (those without the idiot players) and bad teams (those with the idiot players)...Anyone with an ounce of intelligence could tell that training anything but "relaxed" is a gigantic waste of time (especially when you are actually playing games)
I know you don't need to train on normal but you need to have enough money to train on normal or else when you get to level 8 you can't boost your items. before judging and insulting you might want to get your facts straight and think a little bit.
You realize I own a team and have 8 players, right?I know what I"m talking about. My DT made $500/day from day one and he had MORE than enough to get his upgrade in equiptment when he hit level 8...My SS is on level 10 now, just got there 2 days ago, he was making $1000/day and he almost has $10,000 saved up already, and he didn't get any kind of bonuses or anything...
hmm...yeah 100/day, we have guys making around 300.
 
fwiw guys, I am part of the GLBPA. we have our own forum, etc. and are in constant discussion with Bort (not me, but others are) and we're looking to implement a minimum wage salary, a lot of new features (request release button in which case a request would be sent to the GLBPA to analyze, etc.).and fwiw, we normally aren't supposed to involve Bort unless something very wrong is going on (lvl 3 starting over lvl 8 or a player not on depth chart, etc.).
So far it just sounds like GLBPA wants to make trouble.
not the case.
Then show me an agenda worthwhile. We already have a minimum salary. The "request release" button = the pm function. You haven't listed anything else.
minimum salary is ridiculousrequest release button /= PM function. it would send a message to the databse to notify the GLBPA and the owner, then we'd be able to interact and work something out. most times a player actually tries to get a release but the owner is too stubborn or dumb to do anything.
Are you aware of what the minimum salary is???It is:(total exp * .001) + 200That is your minimum salary.it is NOT ridiculous. What is ridiculous is that you actually think players deserve to make $175 * level each day plus still make more when other perks are added to the game.It isn't eveyrone else's fault that people sign stupid super long contracts with jerks who won't give them new deals...
 
many players don't even have enough money to boost items on lvl 8, don't tell me everything is just fine.People don't know who to PM (most users don't use the forum), the button would help out a lot of players.
Because they're idiots.One of my players had his $10 K and he only made $500/day from day one (and immediately boosted to level 4)...another on of my guys is almost at $10 K again and he's only on level 10...Just because you were dumb with your money doesn't mean you need to demand more. Stop being an idiot and you'll be just fine.

No, minimum salary is fine. In fact, it's a bit high.Why do you need a special button to send a message to someone, when you can just pm them? I really wish people wouldn't lobby for the time of the admins, when they have so many useful things to do with such little time.

Ahhh... your problem isn't with poor rules in place, it's with stupid people. Please don't blame the system on idiots that misuse the system. Seriously - who can't save that kind of money? Even a #### contract gives you a few hundred daily. How much does it cost to train? 50 bucks? 80 bucks at the most? And people don't know who to talk to about a problem? Does the message board ring a bell? GTFO. :lmao:
Boosting items cost 2500$ per item (10,000$), add to that the training and the basic equipment and some people didn't have enough money to buy that.
Yes, but it wasn't becuase they didn't make enough money, it was because they're stupid.

you realize there already is a minimum salary, right?you just have to be smart enough to not sign a super long-term deal...
minimum salary is ridiculous...many players aren't getting half of what is needed for normal training.

hmm...yeah 100/day, we have guys making around 300.
Then you shoudl complain about the idiots who sign contracts dumbly...$300 is the minimum for a player on level one who has never played a snap and hasn't aged a day.If someone boosts immediately, his minimum is then $600.Don't sign a stupid contract, and you'll be fine with money. Sign a stupid contract and you won't be.Stop wining because people are stupid.
 
Oh and Tim Harper is a ########. What an #######.
CB - moving on from our disagreements regarding the GLBPA, what's the reason for you saying this? I don't read the main message board very often, so I'm not up on current events. Fill me in dude :hophead:
He took players from his Canadian Pro team and moved them to his US pro team to the point where the Canadian team had CBs starting on the offensive line...Oh, and this was IN THE PLAYOFFS where they were starting CBs on the offensive line...

Whatever this coverage play is, it makes no sense at all. In two games today my team lost in the final minutes because of this messed up coverage.

The SS is up on the line of scrimmage. The FS is shading over to the side where 4 defenders are already covering 2 guys, and the AI leaves two guys on one side alone in man coverage.

It makes no sense at all, particularly with a lead very late in the game.

Thanks guys. That's ridiculous.

We definitely need a disconnect between officials of the game and players.

I also think we need to limit ownership of a team to ONE team per account.

I'm on a team playing DD. While he is doing nothing like what Tim Harper did, can you honestly say this is a fair matchup? DD knows the code of the game, all of the secret tricks everyone else is trying to figure out. The playing field there is clearly uneven.
