Tutors?

No. Maybe in the largest countries.... but thats not actually where they are needed.

tutors are more or less a thing of the past afaik

how databased name to the list.

1. basic database
2. LA added manually

3. is there any automated system that add name based on popular name in each country?

If it were up to me, I would certainly focus on different changes than are currently taking place. But well, I can only help with the work that has been ordered by the owners.
I have recently reported more than 20 bugs/problems/corrections to the newly introduced views.
And the tutorial, is my grassroots initiative, not at all related to a function on the staff. I wrote it as an ordinary player.

And yes, I fully understand the scepticism and criticism, I'm not happy with a lot of things myself either.

Thank you very much for your detailed and clear answer, which was written in a concise and succinct manner.
For the future, I wish you all the best, lots of enthusiasm, joy, and valuable inspiration so that you can continue to optimize the SOKKER game in line with our vision.

Should I keep expanding my stadium or should I just play with the ticket prices?

Depends on season stage. I prefer re-build stadium in between season time and play with ticket prices during mid-season period.

He been in game 15 months and have 22k all roof, all seats... more then enough for now... I would advice all new teams to be patient about anything in direktion of competitive play first two years, all form of higher results costs more then they give in return due to having to train players after their peak in price (after 20-22 yo in most cases) and then only maintain price on them till they 26-27 and price start drop while you could have used their training spot on profit training, or having old players you dont train at all.

Im not saying you never should go for results and "farm" forever, but as a new team you need to focuse catching up in player prices and money in bank first. Sokker is unfortunately slow on this point, but at least it is hard to stay competitive, which means new clubs can have their time.

Both opinions are very valuable. I agree with adaca in the point that it is not very convenient to become competitive too early. The reward is not that good as to having good trainees and selling them for good money. Thank you both for your words

It is difficult to judge seating in different leagues/countries...there are many variables involved. A quick glance at your league leads me to think you don't need more seats right now. There's little point in adding seats if the end result is similar or less money.

If you reliably sell out your 22k at 14-16 bucks a seat for a while then maybe look at it.

How much would you say should you be aiming for in the first two years? I've come back to the game in January after about 10 years away, I want to get my stadium to at least be filled in with full stands (probably just of benches for now) and up to maybe ~10k all benches by the end of this year. In Wales we've only got 6 teams who have fans in the top league though, the others are bot teams or users who immediately became bots.

I want to try and maximise ticket revenue because sponsorship and prize money are fairly low, but realistically there's not much point in a massive stadium upgrade soon but once I've sold a few trainees I'll have a little bit of money in the bank, and I can't get close to competing at the top of the league for a few years yet so there's not much point in investing it into my first team and if I spend it all on top class coaches their salaries are too much for me to afford. Being patient is the key I know but I don't want to play too conservatively and not make any money either! Thanks.

Well the point is you shouldnt focus as much stadium and results at first in most cases. But since you can be in league with someone actually coming to your stadium even you train u20 and dont have older players, you could try find where you fill out nearly, but not max with approach 3-4 of the top teams, even you have 15,- eu tickets

But its important you dont do it before you have 10 decent u20 trainees

it is imporent too build sets ,not only benches.
there is fans who will only come if there is seats

i have a question because i used to play the game some years ago... and i have noticed (maybe i am wrong) that players are significantly worst than before, i am right or it is just a bad thought? the market is shit (maybe teams dont sell) but i think that the only good thing this game have is the training system and now is shit also xDD

big changes are coming

Seasons are shorter, and although they improved general trainings, yes players are worse since introducing

Plop!
