If this game hopes to have any integrity at all, these owners will not be allowed to continue in MFN.

There is no logical reason to allow them to remain a part of this.



For me I'm cool with a guy like that staying in.....I think as long as he comes clean and own up....He should lose all his top picks for all his teams...


How can you be cool with allowing a cheat to continue. I never understand this "its ok if he owns up" mentality. If he has cheated he won't have owned up by admitting it now, he'll have been caught by other players. If someone cheats once they will do it again, its in their nature.



I know its terrible but he is playing the game each and everyday.....dudes in like 10+ leagues....If you created this game you want people playing it....He cheated and got caught he should be punished....If you guys kicked out every cheater you'd be surprised how few people would be left

I would expect anyone who creates a game wants honest players not cheats.

If cheats aren't kicked out I'd be very surprised if anyone honest kept playing and if you are saying the majority of people cheat you have a very low opinion of those of us playing this game.

I play only in MFN-7. I noticed that some players on DarkRogue's team were assigned to positions that make no sense, e.g., DBs to OL; OL to DB; K to RB and so on. As you might imagine, his team was beaten like a drum on a regular basis. I thought he might have been engaging in some misdirection in terms of making it more difficult to scout his team. Of course, he might have been angling for the top pick in the ensuing draft - which he got. I'm unsure as to how to deal with this situation other than to report it to JDB. Such behavior severely impairs the integrity of the game and makes it unlikely that I will continue playing. Anyone can play to lose without going to these lengths.

In MFN-16 i noticed some very strange Player Transactions.


Great catch, Hans! I share a league with "both" owners in L10, and looking through the transaction logs, "they" pulled the same stunt there as well with OL Ronnie Rouse, swapping him to QB, releasing him, then signing the player with his Bellevue team to a minimum deal and returning him to his natural position.

It's gutting to see a new and enthusiastic player exposed to be a scummy cheat. Time to bring down the ban hammer for him and every one of his alts.

Checked his team in my league mfn 27 and his starting O-line all have cur of 90s, 2 90 WRs starting d-line in the 80s, Possible stud rookie QB that has fut in 90s 3 safties in the 80s LBs are in the 80s besides WLB who has fut of mid 80s. overall he has a pretty stacked team that looks suspect. he has 7 players with current in 90s or higher that are all 6 years pro or younger, and a total of 17 players with current of 80s or higher that are all 6 years pro or younger as well.

I'm also in MFN27 and I will say that league had a ton of above average free agents this year and they were fairly cheap. Id asterisk that one .. Lol

I had questioned this on one of those league's trades back then. I had noticed it myself in a couple leagues, nobody seemed to care so i didnt say another word about it

I really don't understand your logic.

I'd rather compete against a handful of honest players than a whole bunch of cheaters.
Your right, he should be punished. With a lifetime ban.

This developer has a great product started. Im sure he has so many long hours put into it he's lost track. And you want him to jeopardize his products reputation by catering to cheaters?
You might rethink your stance. Cause it makes no sense.

I don't understand your logic! How is he catering to cheaters?(side note: this guy has been reported numerous times so maybe your right) Seriously, how can you lifetime ban someone? Think about that, cause right now you don't make sense! My stance is simple punish the guy! Take away top draft picks in all his leagues. All this ban for life stuff won't work because this guy will simply work around it. I'd rather we know who the cheater is than him creating a new account and figuring out new ways to cheat. It sucks that it's taking this long for punishment to come down if anything...

That makes no sense. By your logic it would be ok to have a league with half the teams owned by cheaters because the rest of the owners would know they are cheats.

If cheaters aren't banned that will encourage more cheaters to play this game.
