In the spirit of this community, please do not attack another member with accusatory language or threaten to ban them from your leagues. It's one thing to point out trades that you feel are imbalanced or harmful to a league, but more often than not those cases that seem obvious to an experienced user may not be so obvious for a newer user, even one who has passed the trading threshold timeline. So let's keep the discussions to why the trades are or are not good for the team and leagues in question without stirring up ill-will towards another owner.

As I stated, unless this owner has consistently and deliberately broke the Code of Conduct rules after being warned and informed, then he is free to join any free or user created league in which he chooses to play in. He is free to come up with any unorthodox style or practice in which he wants to, no matter how much it may upset other coaches. The benefits of a UCL is that the Commissioner of the league has to approve the applicants credentials before allowing him to join.

No, ruining leagues and teams is in poor taste. Well done OP. You're personal vendetta against him should not keep key info away from EVERYONE. OP's infractions are alarming as well...but are irrelevant in this thread.

i dont have a personal vendetta against him.

i would i say it is that i care enough to post the INFO and really if that is wrong then i am sorry for caring and going up and beyond call of duty by getting all the information i can before i post something regardless if i am correct or wrong about something.

FYI . The Atlanta team I abandoned was a huge mistake on my part. After stockpiling 1st rd picks I never set up my draft board because my 3 year old daughter was running a 104 temp and I rushed her to the ER. Needless to say I was not actively involved during that time during the draft. After her fever came down and we went home I finallybgot the chamce to check the draft and the AI drafted a bunch of future 70 players with all my picks and in a fit of frustration, irritation and the fact I hadnt slept I said F this and Abandoned the team. I take full responsibility for my actions but it ticked me off that my 6 1st rounders had an average value of 400.
I am not ruining any leagues, besides the Atlanta team which I explained above, I am fielding a competitetive team in all my leagues. The idea of dead cap ruining leagues is redidulous. If anything it it my teams problem to deal with. I see teams with no deadcap yet they have 30 to 40 million in salary dedicated to players with sub 60 values that wouldnt sniff my roster. Yes I manage my teams differently but believe it or not, I have a plan for the direction of each of my teams. It may not be what another owner would do but it is my choice. As long as I put a competitive team on the field week in and week out then it shouldnt matter to any other owner what my cap situation is. I Play and manage my team within the same guidelines and rules established by the league and will continue to do so. If you chose to listen to this plea not to trade with my teams, then you as an owner are potentially hurting your own ability to improve your teams while others that do trade with me will find trades that benefit both sides.
I truly love this game and Im not trying to ruin anybodies experience here. A simple PM to me stating you no longer wish to recieve trade offers from me will be honored. The amazing thing is until someone actually did PM me, I had no idea this thread was created. No one real complaint is that PUNISHER OR someone else didnt PM me sooner. I am not the enemy here, I am not a clown and I am not an idiot. If you disagree with how I manage my team I can respect that but resorting to insults, threats and petitions to ban or boycot me as an owner are over the top and harsh. I enjoy managing my team and I hope others as well are here for that same enjoyment. The beauty of this game isnt all about this weeks game but establishing and building your francise for the next 2, 4 to 6 years.

If JDB should read this, one small code change that would be very easy and at least ameliorate some of the difficulty.

Owner abandons team = Dead Cap reset to Zero.

Setting dead cap to zero sounds nice and all, to me it also sounds like another way to manipulate the system for those looking to do so.
