Can't stand 'Tankers' - its cheating and should be discouraged

[khris]

Nordeus should just really deal with "Relegation from league" option. "More you lose, more you gain" is sick system. Also losses should be connected with decreased amount of fans, less money from home matches, sponsors, tokens, etc. As it is in real life, if you still lose, you can't be awarded for that.

not agree. One tanks to be between the 8th and the 14th clasificated, so the 8th clasificated have to be relegated? ahhh and, you don't think in one "thing", a little BIG detail, and is that, if you are relegated, the last day of the season, you can buy "scouts" before to be relegated to a low league!!!

so, all the players that think that tank is cheating, and teams have to be relegated... what are you thinking???? what do you use to think??? ...-.-''''' you know nothing of the game, you talk to talk, without knoweldage, because be relegated been the 8th will be a better option than be in the same level during another season, for the reason I mentioned,,, will be more easy win leagues if you can buy scouts from a +1 level league...
and what will you do if relegation comes to the game like you suggest??? you will come here? to say, ohhh, I am level 8, and my league is full of relegated level 9 teams that are full of scouts of 7*....

think first, be water my friend.

I think they should relegate the bottom 2 or 3 of the league

How can it be cheatinging. All it is is a slower process of building a foundation to achieve a goal.
I'm not sure if it similar to the turtle and the hare story. Slow and steady. What's the rush..is Nordeus going somewhere?

No its not - Football teams do take time to build there foundations BUT if a team could build there entire foundations in a single season they would do it without a doubt. This game offers that, A team in real life would not delay training or delay building there foundation (as you put it) just so that they wouldn't be seeded against the top teams. Tanking is a tactic deployed by players that want unfair advantages over other player. I don't expect alot of backing here as most of you are/or have been tankers.

As for the relegation thing. That is also an obvious no go! as teams that do not get promoted have a hard enough time trying to get promoted without teams from a higher tear coming down with players of a much greater quality than them. So technically with your relegation theory a team on level 10 with players of an un-believable quality could get relegated all the way down to level 1 and use players of 80+ quality against teams with players of 20 quality? (Its not rocket science to understand how this would fail) but as a "Tanker" i wouldn't expect you to understand about people not wanting to have a unfair advantage against lower teams.

And how can you (Dizzee) agree with (JanCz) who says "More you lose, more you gain" is sick system." Because that is exactly what you are backing by supporting tanking. Because you are GAINING from LOSING.

I really do not ipunderstand Whats the point of tis thread.
I already tanked one of my teams, because in the first season it wasent strong enought to fight for top 4, and finished 5th in the season before, so no money of CL, so i decided to tank, and i can assume you that it His hard playing for loosing, this the engine have is one will.
Last season i was only second, was eliminated form the cup in first round by away goals, by a Little higher Q Team, did not have a easy draw in cup.
Was with low money since was my second season without CL.

Why do not make a thread about limiting the numbers of tokens you buy based on the Q of your league oponents, or limites the watching of videos to the same number in all countries or at least draw the leagues with the teams with the same oportunitys.
And i not complainig about that and Making real noise, this game does not offer the same opportunities to all the players. So everyone plays the way they like.

The worst of all is manipulating results with multiple accounts, thats cheating.

Exactly. I forgot to add that people here watch 6-7 videos a day for boosters whilst here is no offer for that. Now isn't THIS unfair????

It's a strategy and how can you compare this to FIFA in any way, it's a completely different concept. People have a bad team and can't compete with the rest of the league, what exactly would they be playing for? Oh right, yeah get promoted without any Champions League, that's a great idea!

What if you're going on holiday for 2 weeks and you'll miss half your season... Come back to find yourself 10 points off the top 3 and no chance of catching them up, what would you be playing for? A nice 4th place certificate? This is not real football and neither is this FIFA. There are other reasons for tanking other than cup manipulation (which is the first time I've heard of this reason). By the way, if you really wanted to manipulate the cup you'd just sell all your players, buy 3* players and when the season starts refresh your team with 5* and scouts. How is it different to me "cheating" and power training my players to get an advantage over other players?

I can see where you're coming from though. I can understand that it's not "natural" or "normal. But then again, what's natural about this game anyway?

[Saransh Vatsa]

And see even dv8r, a token buyer accepts that tanking is a way to be able to compete and if u can't compete this session, back off and come back stronger next season. Agree it will not make sense in real life but in this game, half ththings make no sense.

[Marc Symons]

My point does not stand for anyone that is going on holiday or that wants to make more money. My point only stands for people that want to tank so that they can be seeded and dominate lower opposition.

As for calling this a pointless thread (Damn2pt) - Isn't this the point of a forum? - To discuss issues within the game.

[spornybol]

i came across 5 token buyer`s in the league i got promoted to so all i`m doing is fighting for is 5th to 7th yes promotion but no champions which is what everyone really wants so i don`t see in any harm in tanking a season for the next season and top 4 finish

Hiya, Marc. Hope you had a great season and more than your fair share of injuries, yellows and losses.

Each manager plays the game they see fit. If it gives them satisfaction, so be it, who am I to judge them. Progress is an evolution and time concept. I see this game as 2-3 years, so there is no rush. The main thing is that I learn from my mistakes and attempt to make some contribution while doing so.
If you repeat a level more than once, it is no poor reflection on anyone other than yourself. Your elders, nor your young'uns are not involved. The choices you make are yours and yours alone, as long as there is satisfaction and enjoyment. Otherwise, what's the point.
Every now and then it's good to stand back and look at the big picture.

Have a great season.
