(S7) - Special PT - Changes

Added
I would like to see better rewards implemented for podcasts or video media to encourage users to create that sort of content. Podcasts that do show up are almost universally loved, and I think it is that sort of media that gives the league a legitimate feel to it. If there were rewards that encouraged people to make more of this sort of content without sacrificing quality just to churn them out, I think the league as a whole would benefit. I would love to be able to listen to a podcast about the league, a specific team, or even an individual player every week without fail.

I’ve already touched on this in the suggestion box, but I really don’t agree with unrealistic position changes. I understand that the purpose of the league is to have fun, and if a player isn’t enjoying themselves it’s natural to want to switch, but the Boss Tweed move left a bad taste in my mouth. He’s a S1 player who was in conversations for the HOF as a running back and was the face of the Colorado Yeti franchise, then gets traded and is suddenly a linebacker? It spits in the face of the history of the league. I want people to have fun and stick around, but for the immersive users like myself (and I’m sure there are others), it just makes me wonder what the point is of becoming elite in your position if, hypothetically, a defensive end can suddenly become the league’s top receiver because he’s been around long enough?

Kept
Live sims. I don’t really think this was in question, but it really is the lifeblood of the league. Without the live sims, we’re just sort of talking about nothing. I don’t think people would necessarily cheat (beyond the normal cheating the league seems to attract), but without people being able to view their dots and their teams’ dots doing the things that the box score said they did, I think they would start to get frustrated and point fingers and make accusations. It’s surprising how attached I’ve gotten to my little circular #86 running around on the virtual field, and I’m sure other people feel the same way about their sim players.
