Why do these people even play the game?

[maloukees]

I play always for winnning, and the tankers should face penalty, or for example they can not grow bigger than 130% level of their players, so the use of tanking many season and have team like 160% and higher is history..

More enjoyment for everyone

this sound fair

Just played a team who are 40% higher than everyone else in the league - so far P4 L4 minus 30 goal difference. Plays his entire team on the wings (typical tank formation). Plays me today (one of three P4 W4 teams) and suddenly it’s full formation. It’s a miracle I only lost 1-2. I don’t care if people want to tank but at least do it on a fair and consistent basis - don’t try to play God with the league 😡

that's ****, if you want to stink up the league stink up the whole league, but don't victimise some over others, that's wrong

the worst thing about this is the moderators like NIKO the greek, and KHRIS are the biggest tankers going in top 11, they like all tanker comments and literally encourage it !
WHAT HOPE DO WE HAVE !! along with all the other experts on here with 1000+ posts who live on here.
they are supposed to be moderators not encouragers to ruin the damn game !!!!

Is not my problem if you don't wanna understand that tanking is a real option of the game.
The game do the competitions in relation with the AvQ then, and you are saying it by yourself, +1000 posts, or how do you think that many of the old players still playing nowadays? because they -me included- dont wanna lose our team in quality terms and I imagine that time to time at least by my side since 2011 I had other things to do.
This freedom too is part of the reason why the game have the amount of players that actually have.

I remind you that by my side Ive suggested multiple stuffs including the option to close the training for 7*'s for those who don't promote.
I remind you too that the moderators of this forum are not part of the Nordeus company but if you wanna do a crowdfunding and make me president by buying me the Company I promise some cool changes.

the problem for me is when tankers pick and choose different league opponents to play properly against, you have your reasons for tanking and if the game allows it then that's your choice to make I guess, as long as you don't try to manipulate the league you're in if all you want to play in is the cups and associations, I can think of no good reason to suddenly play a league game properly to stop some stranger winning their league

Why do people tank?

People tank so they can have an advantage when it comes to winning trophies. Increased quality, extra rest packs farmed, massive quality so when playing normally, no need to spend greens to win trophies. It's all a mechanism to unlevel the playing field, to have an advantage over other managers. It's similar to buying tokens, but a tanker generally leeches off the game, while a token buyer invests in nordeus, but both are doing so to have an advantage. It's human nature to seek a means of gaining an advantage over the competition.

The sad thing is, It's a strategy that has been around for years, yet nordeus has done nothing to alleviate it's abuse.

And to be frank, many managers only have a problem with exploiting, if the exploiting causes them to lose. For example, how many complaining about association exploiters, win several triple crowns due to manipulating CL and cup draws to play down a level? In both examples, we have someone ruining the game for other managers. Many that are exploiting, may not even realize that they are exploiting, they might even have some stupid hogwash moral justification for their exploiting.
