well couldnt he just like involve a 3rd team where whatever he wants to trade between the 2 teams would go to that team then that person would trade those items to the team that wants that item.

for exaample
Jacksonville wants to trade their QB for Kansas City's QB ..
So the 3rd party would trade for the KC QB or Jacksonville QB for the first part of the trade with something of theirs that they dont want or a draft pick then they would turn around and trade to the team they didnt trade with so that QB goes to team that wants him then turns around and tries to get the other QB to the team they didnt first trade with.

Basically rinse and repeat until they got all the trade pieces traded .

Though might be better if there was like a 3 team trade option where you could involve 3 teams where you could speed up the process.

Or Unless like the ADMIN would have every trade that 2 teams that have same IP address go to him directly so to keep unfair trade from happening then that way trades could still happen between 2 teams that have same IP address and in the process keep it from being exploited .

TBH, this scenario tips the scale towards cheating in my opinion. The "spirit" of the rule was to eliminate 1 player from creating 2 accounts to self trade and create a superteam. I understand if both owners are different but using the same IP .. family, coworkers (what happened to me), etc. But it's a rule nonetheless.

Regarding messaging JDB, last message I got was a pop-up asking to limit messaging to him as the site is growing in popularity (I assumed everyone got the message too). I don't think bogging him down with trade approvals is a good idea.

Instead of using a dupe account just use a realteam in that league. The same premise would work as long cap permits .

I was thinking about suggesting a third party trade options. It is a good idea for dealing with that trade bonus. Nfl teams cheat the cap that way. Well if two teams cant make a trade due to cap reasons a third team is added to eat the bonus with some value in return, but the key is that team has the cap room so the might get a player or pick. Still, very minor benefit with our loose caps right now.
