    Do you know how silly you all sound. If Nordeus used 'bots' and we're caught doing so, the Office of fair trading could/would take them to the cleaners and it wouldn't be worth Nordeus's while for the sake of virtual currency. I know Nordeus are far from perfect but I can't help but think it is simply peoples way of venting when they miss out on a player after spending a lot of tokens trying to win that player. I had a theory about Nordeus's staff bidding with free tokens but it was a theory and I was simply putting it out there as if to say "could they even be done for this?" Bots on the other hand is a different kettle of fish. Nordeus would have to actually program a Bot to bid against people and as I say I believe they wouldn't do that when there already the biggest online football simulation game in the world. It makes no sense.

    Can you tell us how they would be caught? Office of fair trading? Seriously? Is that what it is called in Serbia? Pull the other one.

    It doesnt have to be bidding bots, but like the other poster said, just an employee or someone hired to create bidding wars to waste tokens. They give out hundreds or thousands of free tokens every week, why cant they give them to friends and get them to bid on players?

    I think you'll find that's what i said, and i am right. If i genuinely thought Nordeus were using bots to steal my tokens/money I would report them the the office of fair trading and they would investigate. So i think you'll find im spot on!!

    Some MOD please lock this stupid thread as its getting boring now.

    MOD dont lock this thread on the advice of someone with no authority as this thread is just getting warmed up.
    MArc Sympons, you have no idea what this office of fair trading is and if its not a Serbian office, then it would have no authority to do anything. Even the BBB in North america is toothless, and you think some small online game company is going to get slapped for scamming people out of tokens by some mythological fair trading police? THAT makes me laugh. Thank you for my laugh of the day. looking forward for your next attempt at humor.

    and for the record, we are talking about bots AND employees/paid acquanitances that woudl be bumping up the bidding, not just bots, because as mdkii said, there are no bots, and that might be true.

    I love how you say you are right without any proof of anything. the people have thoughts and theories but you have proof that your are right = priceless.

    can you please give me the phone number for this office of fair trade and let me know where their authority starts and ends so I can check on this too? or should i look in the area 51 books, next to the unicorn and leprechaun books?

    So your theory is that Nordeus pay people to bid against users spending tokens. Which is supposed to achieve what, exactly?

    I think you will find that i said i was right about the Office of fair trading thing. As for them being in Serbia you may be right there i never gave that a thought. As for your other comment about Nordeus being a small company? they may not be as big as EA but they bet EA in the online gaming market and 'Top Eleven is currently the biggest online football simulation game in the world. So im sure IF the office of fair trading had jurisdiction they would investigate. My comment about bots being codswollop is simply my opinion, I never once said it was fact.

    Lol people come to this forum for free discussion, and it's not a stupid topic. If you are too smart for this thread, just go somewhere else. Don't try to be an ass here.

    I understand a forum is to debate issues/subjects BUT when you read the same thing over and over and over again it gets a little tedious. Same as the fixture timing thing. I am not being an "ass" the post you quoted was in response to a earlier comment by someone else.
