This guy isn't Boltz, so you can stop that now. He's a good guy, signed on my casual team, he is just interested in the game.

Guchman, just ignore the multi comments. I got called the same and was even mailed by a person or two accusing me of being a multi when I first started a year and a half ago. As with anything social, the game can only be as enjoyable as the people you surround yourself with so how enjoyable it will be is completely up to you. The game is actually pretty fun and well put together. Sims of this nature can be a coding nightmare and the game actually plays much better than it did 10 seasons ago.
Also, welcome to GLB.

The sim and strategy part of the game are great.
The rest of the game seems completely unfinished. Most everytime I make a suggestion it gets deemed that someone will have to do some work to make it happen so it is not going to happen. Also it seems only popular players get anywhere in the suggestion section. For instance for four or five straight off seasons I suggested perpetual peewee players. They would get like 7-10 +1s then disappear to the second page by the next day. Two days after my last time suggesting it dubJ suggested the exact same thing and it's instantly Epic and up for a vote what a great idea it suddenly was.
Half the time I go there I just get rude users that insult me or just act extreamly childish and attention starved. Mods and others seem to fight every suggestion like they are protecting Bort or something. Great ideas get shut down immidiatly because they don't affect the chosen few. Every peewee thread for years was just full of the lolpeewee crap by players that knew nothing about peewee. Now look at it. Catch and Bort thankfully are not as biased as much of the other staff so there is still hope.

just because you whine all the time and complain about how no one listens to you doesnt mean we're the ones being childish.
your ideas suck
peewee sucks
you suck.

This is the kind of things I'm talking about. Attention starved users that put down any thing I ever suggest. I don't know them nor have I ever done anything to them. PK probably can't come up with a single suggestion I have ever made but he seems to stalk me. Sure I suck whatever, pretty sure he has never beat me so I really don't know where his hostility comes from.

Well except every thread we close down either has already been deemed NGTH or is something we have brought to Catch22's attention and he shuts it down. There is no chosen few. No idea what you are talking about with dub j. Unless you are talking about the recent peewee suggestion in which he pm'd Catch22 himself about it to take a look at.

No it was the perpetual peewee suggestion. No one did anything wrong. It just shows if you are a no one on the forums like me and you make a suggestion you get called names, told you suck, and other ridiculous stuff. But if you are popular and make the exact same suggestion everyone thinks it is a great idea.

And this myth about Mod's shutting great ideas down with locking all their threads is just pretty lol.
Let's just look at all the great suggestions on the first page that are now locked.
- Suggest JcWildcat changes avatar (joke thread)
- When you get your first win in WL (joke thread)
- Pee Wee (locked by Catch22 to push discussion into one thread)
- Get rid of PW-Copper... (locked by Catch22 to push discussion into one thread)
- Ways to Get Flex Points (shut down by admins after checked by JC/Ellis even elaborated further on why)
- Add the additional Defensive plays to the formation tab (fixed)
- restart (NGTH)
- I suggest... (joke thread)
- I stopped spending money because you castrated defensive players (not a suggestion)
- Check down on screen plays (NGTH)

Welcome to the game, and thank you for your feedback. I can see why it would be frustrating to post a suggestion and get a bunch of "NGTH" responses from users right off the bat without much else said about it. I am not a huge fan of the phrase "never going to happen" because you usually can't say never and we have had ideas in the past that we didn't think would come to fruition but they did. I have added to your suggestion thread as some additional feedback. Please don't let the "NGTH" comments prevent you from posting ideas, we discuss suggestions quite frequently. Thanks!

Some probably go too long imo. Seems by page 2 or 3 it's often the usual users name calling and crap.
My last suggestion to get locked the Mod I don't think read the suggestion and decided it was similar to something on the ngth list. They were courteous enough to unlock it and move it for further discussion.

you made one about peewee tiers. know how i know? cuz all you do is cry about peewee. its dead. get over it. i cant ever play you, i dont play peewee seriously.
its not attention seeking, its just letting you know that what you think is good for the game, truly isnt.

Ya if things start getting out of hand we generally try and either force it back on track or have to shut it down because of trolling. Though like you said, often times if it is worth the discussion we will try and keep the discussion civil and just deal with the trolls themselves.
