Guy obviously sucks. I dont know why there's not a one week trade ban for newbies like this guy so they can get used to the league a little at least. I think Aaron just hacked into Outlawz account. |

Also, I don't think its obvious he sucks, replying to Outlawz. I think this is a bad trade based purely on ratings. I think he made a bad decision an should've waited longer before his first deal but he isn't obviously crappy. He could turn out to be crappy, but I don't think this one deal should mean he's labeled as crappy.

I've told him he can't join. Sorry Spence Kinda weird. Why? Because he'd talk my ear off about BBS and ruin it for me Na he doesn't want basketball sim last he told me because he doesn't know enough about basketball. I told him I could get him into a lesser league to learn the ropes but he didn't want to |

For now its just a veto. For future reference, if I ever say "I dont know about this guy, lets give him a chance" this means, I dont know if this guy is a good GM or not but we should give him a chance. So if the guy makes a bad first deal, it may be vetoed. Doesnt mean Im gonna give up on the guy, just means his trades will be viewed critially by me and they may need to be worked on. Everyone in BBS has been pretty lucky that weve always had a good core of GMs with a solid wait list. Well, as the GM core become finicky and decides certain Gms cant be here, the Gm wait list gets thinner. As a group we need to develop some new GMs. |

In a perfect world there would be an unlimited supply of GMs. I gues when you hire guys and take chances with guys and they get absolutely no leeway from current GMs it become frustrating. Im gonna guess this is why Play was the only person to have the slightest amount of sympathy thus far. He had to try to hire people in NBN and PWW and realized THERE IS NO ONE OUT THERE. |

If someone like Reilly or Hernando or Dane or A2J was around and wanting to be in the league, theyd be here.

I understand that but i think some sort of 1 week ban for complete unknowns would help. I dont know why you are so opposed to that. But hey it's your league.

Because I don't need to say "1 week trade ban" to look at a trade an go "this isn't gonna work". Either a trade is good, or it isn't. This one isn't. Doesn't mean the guy is fired, or that he sucks. Just means the trade needs to be reworked. |

Yeah there is no one out there to hire but I think you need to train this guys a little bit. Make them asst gms while you run the team or at least do their dc, then you give them a two week trade ban where you review all their trades and hear what they are trying to do. Then you let them free. Could be a great way to get guys to join the league and stick around. Plus it would prevent a lot of bad trades that may occur early on in a gm hire.
