    Whatever mate. Going through the past seasons threads, I can see many players won trophies while tanking. Your thoughts that it is pathetic is obviously not in line with many players. So its just your opinion.

    You're the kind of player who ruins associations. I doubt it is considered a lesser evil. When I manipulate at level 6, I play mostly bots and abandoned teams and maybe 3 to 5 players in CL or Cup who log in a few times a week. I hurt less players with what I do. You on the other hand affect active players who make it to platinum depriving them of a spot. To me, its debatable who is a bigger dick.

    My opinion is nothing of what we are doing is wrong as long as the system allows it and we go by the rules. To prevent what I am doing, Nordeus could easily just promote all teams who win any other tournament despite not finishing in top 8. Same goes for your association manipulation. Only let teams who have been promoted in the previous season join an association. All who tanked will just automatically get booted out and cannot join till next season.

    Frankly speaking who likes losing to much weaker abandoned teams or bots. These exploits are like a free pass for active players. And they all require extra work. Upselling is tough, multiple accounts and watching lots of videos and tons of training. Can be done without multiple accounts but higher greys are useless and do not help with manipulating draws. Manipulation is hours at auction and tons of training as well asap. Tanking is the easiest but still requires a log in and a switch of players if participating in CL and Cup.

    But it is a fact that players like you who operate 20 accounts and watch videos are assets to the game. You make more money for them. Much more than I do with my 2 accounts, 1 of which doesn't even watch videos. I assume you watch videos and upsell since you have so many 19 year old 9 star players.

    Take away any one of the exploits Tanking, Manipulating and Upselling and there will be a sudden drop in daily active accounts. Changes have to be made slowly and progressively. Especially so if players who use exploits are core contributors to the company revenue stream.

    If I were to suggest, what is most important in order to not lose players is to fix top of the server issues. Do something to improve it so players don't play each other month after month fight for the same few trophies.
