  1. If recreation is an issue, maybe give a stronger incentive on recreating. If the number of people in the draft is an issue or the rate at which we see new faces enter new careers is an issue, maybe think about advertising for the league much stronger and with different methods in hopes we attract stronger new members. It's great that this community is small, tight and fr the most part drama free. It's well ran and has extremely strong commissioners and admins. Due to that fact, I think they'd be able to handle a larger community efficiently. I now prefer the VHL over the SHL but I think adding way more members would be largely beneficial to the league. Make an advertisement that runs on sites. I mean, we get a significant amount of donations, do we not? Some I'd imagine pays for the sight and maybe simming, but is there nothing left over? Put it to good use if so and look for alternative methods for advertising the VHL. We're only as strong as our own members and I think with more, it would improve the VHL (more activity - stronger LR's, more activity among the boards, more players - stronger teams, better drafts, maybe more teams - possible expansion for the VHLM and VHL and maybe more donations as well).
  2. Fuck the records. Such a stupid idea just to limit our playing seasons because the old gen's don't want to lose some records. If you were that great then, become that great now. Don't limit it because you want to be remembered as the best. I've been a huge advocate on this. I think its absolutely silly for us to limit our playing seasons. Work so hard for 500-800 tpe just to have our career be forced into retirement. Some people don't even get enough time to become good and yes, it creates diversity, but how fun is that? People stay because it's active, interesting and enjoyable. Working you ass off with the limited amount of time you may have to only be able to enjoy your player and be really good for 3-4 seasons is a little ridiculous. I don't have the issue as I reach 600 tpe I believe with Campbell and will hopefully fly by that with Wolf, but I would like to have the option of going longer than 8 seasons. It may affect the draft, yes, but then how about switch it up and make the duration of our career last a little longer? Say 10-12 seasons and change regression to whatever it needs to be to adapt with the changes made. So I would either say get rid of it all together or raise it to 10-12 seasons, although I'm much more in favor of just getting rid of it all together.
  3. Would you just look at the European Conference
  4. PODAROK.
  5. WOLF's 1st goal of da year and my 1st on the VHLM ever. Yesssss
  6. Holy shit, lol.
  7. Bruno Mars?
  8. Don't bring me into this, Kendy.
  9. Very "anti" VHL - especially for a revolutionist as yourself. We want all our members to stay active, therefor, should care about all our members.
  10. @Draper So does this mean I get my carry over like I asked?
  11. Good luck in the final year!
  12. I agree. One of the better ones I've seen on SHL/VHL.
  13. ON that not though @Da Trifecta You think it's penalizing people by allowing us to donate twice.. yet your idea is to... donate... twice.. Mine is simply with one player, yours being two.. So if they can't afford two with one player.. how will they afford 2 with individual donations to one player..? PENALIZING.
  14. Well, some don't have enough to donate once.. so are they penalized as well? Essentially, based off what you say, that is penalizing them due to them not being able to afford it and be equal when it comes to earning TPE. Simply and utmost discrimination. That's like saying we need to take away TPE because you don't have time to do em. Not my problem. But I see your point. Mine was simply a joke
  15. I'd def, likely donate for both. MAYBE Or let us donate twice for one SIMPLY in our first season
  16. You have to plan for worst and best scenario, Draper. WHAT IF a lot of those who recreate are able to maintain 2 players? Wouldn't you of wished the cap was higher. Always better to plan with more available and adjust accordingly after a season or two. Either way, me having a 300 tpe player and a 700 tpe player is 4.5 and 2 M.. for 6.5 M total. Having Victor's "Every 3 year" thing will help with this slightly as you wont have both players at 600 TPE raping you at 4.5 M a piece.. But you have to plan for worst and best - worst being a lot flop or cant maintain well enough - best being a lot can. Regarding the amount we can do turn earn TPE, I'd say it's fairly manageable for those who to choose 2 players to maintain and build up both. Thus, we'd need a more significant bump up that 1-2 M. 10 added players is essentially an extra player or 2 on every team depending on drafts and then Free agency. 1-2 M will no be enough for a team to successful hold players and would cause a lot of unstable rosters etc.
  17. Fear The Walking Dead - Season 2, episode 1 (I'm behind). The only reason I'm behind is because either I enjoy The Walking Dead and Rick Grimes/Darryl Dixon too much or the show is really fucking terrible and I honestly think it's the 2nd choice. I really not enjoy this show at all and considering my enjoyment over TWD, I thought I would. Last Man Standing - Tim "the toolman" Taylor, AKA Tim Allen is rocking back in another show and it's kinda, sorta like the good ole home improvement days. I honestly love the show and think it's pretty funny so if you got a chance, try a few episodes. Prison Break - For those who have watched it, you know why it's so good. Almost into Season 2 and I think I'm hooked. Love it ! The Ranch - I told one of my buddies to watch it and his girlfriend disliked it. I also dislike her though so I'm not too sure what to think. It took me an episode or so to get into it but once I committed myself to the show I really, really enjoyed it and I thought the humor was pretty damn good. Once I ran out of episode (half 1st season released on Netflix) I was pretty displeased. Got Ashton Kutcher and that curly headed fuck from That 70's show on it. IMO, it's fucking hilarious - just the way the humor rolls off.
  18. That's just accounting for rookie contracts.. what happens when they're Prime players at $4 500 000? Is EVERY contending team going to have to trade their rookie players to shitty teams because they can no longer afford them simply because we raised the player amount more than the salary cap? We're simply taking into affect the "rookie player", not later on down the road". It's great that everyne wants to make every single team in the league have a chance and contend, but that's not realistic. You have your shit teams, average ones and all in/contending teams. This should give teams the power to have lots of youth and very bright future, a but of both and coming along or a really good line up for contending that extends passed one full fucking set of Dmen and forwards because that's all the salary cap allows us to afford. I'm maxed out for contending right now cap wise and I have a limited amount of 600+ tpe players. If I wish to acquire more 600+ tpe players, I need to rid of my youth at essentially a 2 to 1 ratio. The cap imo is already problematic or not 100% efficient. This would only cause issues and would need more than a 2 M raise to have things run how I'm sure we'd want it too.
  19. I say the salary cap should be hire once implemented.. With the amount of people having a second player.. we're only going to raise the cap by 1 Million. Makes much sense to double or ALMOST double the league in player amount, but raise the salary cap by 6%. If this is being done, we'll have to raise the cap significantly while taking into consideration of a new bracket. OR, keep the same bracket but raise the cap to the 40-50M range. Again, we won't need it for all teams to be higher.. but for teams competing, we're already against the cap and we barely have a line of players.. which is bullshit.. We're not doing this move to be like the VHLM and "Level things out". IF we're doing this to make ALL teams more equal, fuck that. This should be simply to have more players in the league. It's the job of the GM to make their teams EQUAL or not - not something like this. So if Victor wants 11 active people a team, that leaves us with 3.3 M for each player based off a 33 M salary cap. That's 11 400-600 TPE players. Not bad I suppose, but doesn't allow you to fully rage out and compete. Thus, raise the cap. I also say abolish the "3 year" wait period thing. I also state that you allow us to do it whenever, because I can assure you I want a 2nd player and won't be happy missing cut off and that it's going to result in a super draft anyway so you might as well enjoy a super draft every 8 seasons. Plus, it's no guarantee it'll be a super draft. How many people actually have the time to run 2 players and create 2 elite stars off them? Some players may flop or only reach 300-400 tpe etc. Either way, adding 15 players to a draft that may likely already have 5-6 old gen recreates and new members is already boosting the draft caliber. Just my 2 cents.
  20. No, no. Had to start off rolling
  21. HAMILTON. Atta boy @JardyB10
  22. Lines sent.
  23. He's got the best ass in the LR. I mean is the best Ass*
  24. Wasn't any attitude. I just don't like hints at tampering or any other sort of false accusation. In your initial post, you could have mentioned the wording rather than you simply "wondering". I think it was worded fairly simplistic. During free agency, we spoke. That's when you talk to FA's. Everyone knows that. The only other attitude I've given off is towards Victor - and it's rather more joking towards my friendly Forum Police Officer
