    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

    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 😡

    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 !!!!

    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.

    Thats true. Every change against any exploit has given a negative response. Not helped the changes are accompanied by bugs of course.

    Also nordeus match making an issue. For me game needs a mega clean up. Remove inactive teams. Merge servers. Merge some levels if need be to help higher levels. Then stop the +1 unfair draws. Eliminate tanking. And draws based on best eleven. Game is not called Top Fourteen lol

    At least Niko and Khris have post a hundred posts each about how to improve the game, suggestions, unfair issues. Your posts have only irony, moaning and drinking bs.

    Agree, that’s what I m talking about. Starting from top100. The game didn't have those problems before associations.
