Subject: [IDEA] NT players from bot teams/banned users

TL;DR - My idea is to enable NT/U21 coaches to put on transfer list players from bot teams/banned users' teams, for a few reasons.

Hi,
I already wrote about this on the Polish version of this forum.

Introduction
I was inspired by the Portugal U21 coach Acrutz, when he, asked by me to tell me who is the best U21 midfielder in Portugal (I'm doing mid databases on forum Bazy Zawodników and wanted to get a few new players there) told me that the owner of many great young players, Nightskull, is banned and thus he doesn't know the skills of his trainees. So I thought about this solution, and this is just an example of a situation it could work in ;)

Idea description
Basically I just want to enable the NT coaches (U21 or senior teams) to be able to put on the transfer list players from teams who are bots or whose owners for some reason have recently got blocked. This could be particularly helpful for smaller countries - now, with the blocking of Nightskull (team Sokker Revolution) both the Portuguese U21 team has a problem (because a few of their players will suffer from not playing matches or having training not specified for their needs), and also the main Portugal NT, who is now losing the material for potential stars in the future - and also there are a few players on this team that already play for senior NT team and who will probably not develop as well as they possibly could if their training was specifically dedicated every week/season, for what they should be improved in.
Another example, team MOSP Białystok in Polish Ekstraklasa, the owner Tytus has also recently got blocked and we have now a bot in our top league. There are a couple of NT players on this team - if they were sold, they wouldn't be wasted, they could still win trophies for some dedicated users, who will have lots of joy being able to use them. Just let the NT coach take control of the player, by which I mean he would just click the 'sell' command, just as if it was his own player. In place of that sold 'star', the MOSP Białystok team would receive a stock player, like the one the starting users get at the beginning of their sokker struggles. This would allow this bot to get relegated from the league quicker, letting an active user play in Ekstraklasa. Right now, it will probably take a few years (real years, not a few seasons) for MOSP Białystok to fall all the way down to the VI League, when it can be replaced by a new team and a new user. And those current players on this team who possibly still have a bright future ahead of them, their career is going to be wasted now on.

Why should this be introduced?
I'm not an IT expert and I don't know if this idea is easy to be put in the game or even if it's possible (well I guess it is but you know better), and this is not a game-changer. This will not attract new users to the game, will not change the gameplay or the general look. This is a small change that could maybe make it a bit more fluent. Enrich the market, help little countries whose national teams are based on the achievements of a small group of users. In Poland, if we lose a potential prospect in a situation like this, that's not a big deal - we still have plenty of other players. But when it comes to countries even like Portugal, it gets a bit more serious and it does affect their NTs.
And besides that, I'm doing those databases. One may say it's nothing important - because it isn't. But for me, it's sad to see some potential top players of age categories, who are completely wasted because of situations like the one mentioned before. And now, with little number of new users = little number of new players, we should be pursuing the goal to have as many good players in the game as possible - and this would maybe help just a bit, as well as enabling a bigger rotation of users and bots - at a low cost, I hope :)

Cheers everyone, I hope someone reads this ;) let me know what you think, even if it's nonsense for you :P

The suggestion has been there before, also with a lot less reading... :D Problem is nobody develops on the game, for now....

Yes I did make some story around it :P I'll shorten in it then, I know it's pretty long...

+1 Any ideas if we can transfer this to devs and how all sokker users can wake them up??
2017-01-30 13:37:16
glad you like it
I think everyone would like to know that ;)
But maybe they would react, I'm starting to thing that this idea doesn't require lots of work and while they aren't keen on big changes (time consuming and no profit?), this is a little one so maybe it would attract some attention

They don't do even tiny changes like label change, they just don't do changes at all.

Maybe if that person they are looking for is hired there would be some bugfixes and even improvements, but the owners themselves probably won't add/change anything.

XD now this looks completely stupid, this is a couple clicks and problem solved.

well I really expected that something is being done in terms of improving the game, but it seems...there is not at all :D

This is not new, it has been proposed before. Nevetheless, good luck with your attemt (maybe Greg might feel moved by your speech, and... -lol-).
2017-02-02 22:24:48
Yes I saw this coincidence! :) well, that would be awesome if it was implemented at some point...
I didn't look for similar threads, I confess :D but this forum is dead anyway, so two threads of a similar topic don't cause much mess

I agree with this idea
