Expand Question you can use: Who came on in S49 to retire his player because they were "taking up dead space" only to go inactive in the same day?

I've seen this countless times and would rather point to retention than whine about the unfortunate transaction. As a GM it's your responsibly to insight a positive attitude (even in this situation) in hopes that maybe the member comes back and stays active. If he came back he wouldn't be on your team (with a new player possibly) but you have to set a good example. If you disagree (which you are allowed) maybe the GM job isn't the best area to be. Because as a league it's not like 5 recruits are coming in every day, which means retention is half the battle guys like myself have to battle.
