An Update on Friendly Match Changes

[Celtic]

As promised, here is a more detailed post of our current plans.

At the moment, we know that one of the most requested ideas here on the forum is the ability to accept or decline friendlies before they are played. We'll refrain from saying that this is impossible, but we want it as an absolutely last resort.

We know, you have millions of clients and 95% of them, as you know too well, want to be able to accept or decline friendlies.

As promised, here is a more detailed post of our current plans.
The main reason is that we want managers to be able to log into the game and be able to play a friendly right away with someone.

What's the purpose? No one has the right to do anything right away with anyone without the other's consent and awareness. No one.

You know the broad audience of this game, how many kids play this and the implications of such incorrect concepts you are in a way teaching to them.

As promised, here is a more detailed post of our current plans. Imagine a scenario where you challenge someone to a friendly, they want to play, but not at the time specified.

Then you try to figure out a new time that works for both, but you might have some other important matches by then, so a friendly isn't something that you want anymore.

In your logic, there's no problem if someone is unwilling to be abused no matter what damage it may cause, but it's a problem if, in your own words, the abuser has "other important matches by then" and abusing isn't convenient anymore.

We're afraid that something like this might discourage our players from playing friendlies at all.

We know.
