No, I really coudn't care less. But it would be like doing a job you hate. Your not going to continue doing it. If I had to change the game every other year to keep peoples attention I would have quit along time ago. I started simming so I woudn't have to do that, like all the other leagues

I don't need to do any research at all. Your hall of fame status has made you think your opinion is godly and you have a superiority issue.

Nothing in any comment I have made here or elsewhere has implied I feel this way about myself. Again, if you read what was happening here, you would see this isn't even MY suggestion.

That's BS, I only made 1 comment on 1 other site. That was Spitty's league and I said something like "You guys seen the new Spitfire's Ice Legends 2.0?" It was never that bad, just an excuse to kick me out. I don't really care now since it was 3-4 years ago but I'm just addressing it because that's a blatant lie. Never said this league was awful, never went to multiple leagues...
As for the poll, I voted 'no' because the system actually works, believe it or not. My team sucked for 4 seasons but all the while I stockpiled on legends and then Yotes helped me out last season and that finally propelled me to the playoffs. Definitely takes a while if you start off with a team of 1 or 2 legends and the rest are all 85 or below OVA players. The draft is pretty much useless but auctions is where you can completely rebuild your team. And every time a team is trading depth for star players, you have to take advantage and trade the depth. It might take multiple seasons but Yotes sims so abominably fast that you will have playoff team within a calendar year or less.
The system's not perfect but restarting it wouldn't solve anything plus I think the biggest reason why people don't want to restart is because we all have greater responsibilities and less time than 3-4 years ago. It's like hitting the equilibrium bond distance, tremendous energy is lost at first in order to build a good team but later on, most GM's are content and the league becomes stable. There won't be as many trades but it doesn't really mean that people will be dissatisfied.

And this is an unfair situation for PR since he has to do this for other people who won't speak up. Makes him look like a jack*ss for randomly coming into the league and suggesting a complete re haul of the system. That is until he mentions that 4 people asked him to do it for them. Would have been better if one of them just posted the poll. Sure it would have been turned down but now those four can't come out since there'd be animosity towards them.

I think Justin took a lot of heat over posting a poll for people who told him they were pretty much scared of being banned for having an opinion, and then all of a sudden members here start attacking him for posting the poll and expressing that others have an opinion. It's fine that it was rejected, but it's not okay to blast him for expressing that others had an opinion they felt they couldn't share because members on this site would blast them.... so what do they do? They blast Justin... lmao irony.

I'd say it's a bit different when someone who hasn't been here in forever comes on and posts something, which started out fine, until people like JM said it wasn't changing and he started posting pictures of Hitler and shit.
Also LOL at the idea of us banning people for having an opinion. The only people we've ever banned were spammers, 123456333crosby because he was an idiot back in the day (and that ban has sinc ebeen lifted), and Kruze because he went batshit crazy during a draft and started spewing personal insults.

I think what it all comes down to is that I'm prettier than everyone so everyone is upset.

nobody blasted Justin. Justin came in here with the insults. We are just fine with the way the site is. If people don't like they don't have to be here. We aren't forcing anybody to stay. We enjoy what we have. I could build a playoff team every year from what is available in the draft.

There is a new league starting up right now with basicaly the same style if people want to try a restart. We would loose 4 or 5 long standings members to change now, as they are too busy with Univerisity. read your comment yotes. (We would loose 4 or 5 long standings members to change now, as they are too busy with Univerisity) doesnt that imply 4 - 5 people are just letting their teams sit and do their thing with no trades/auctions because they dont have time? dont get me wrong, with changes in my personal life it has been harder to be on all the time but i would still make sure to be active enough to make deals. i wasnt even going to comment on it but what yotes said works both ways. dont restart because people wont have time to actually be active. not really fair to the 23 - 24 other GM's who would be active enough to handle a reboot. In the end this is a never ending discussion. every year this comes up and every year it gets shot down because people dont want to see Pens leave.

wow i just read the other pages. lol. this is outta control. I dont know you Man PR but you shouldnt bash yotes. Hes the only reason this league survived as long as it did. I wont put up for anyone bashing him. he's beyond generous to the new people and looks out for them. hes never done anyone any wrong here. and as for the mess on Wynne's chin... i already licked it off.. lmao.

Noone then attacked him, people then said they disagree, and Justin got defensive and compared Yotes to Hitler and claimed Wynne is the admin's bitch. Once again, it is extremely hard to form an opinion for you two who have not been around here for 3 years.
