What a jerk, you may want to consider terminating this league, Gus, and starting over with an invite only method. That would leave only the two teams to replace if everyone re-ups.


Two teams will not ruin a league, and I think there are enough people who play this game who enjoy a good reclamation project. If it were 5 or more teams, I'd agree with you, but the league will survive two trolls should everyone else stay active.

Would agree if it wern't for a couple of considerations. 1. league just started, still in early draft, so its not as big a deal to re-start ito time invested. 2. It will take much longer to "repair" Dallas & Arizona as the FA pool will be picked clean to start the season, and will take more than 2 seasons to get some decent starters into it. With the level of experience in the league, both FA pickups and trades to improve those teams will be many times more difficult.

In a way I agree, but its 2 teams that will recover, either by CPU or someone picking them up who's into S&M ;)
If everyone here wants me to re-do this league, I will do as I think we're onto something good. I see a few old faces and new ones that are active and contributing, rivalries have already begun and it would be a shame to start over, but with support would do a makeover.

No lets keep going, the two teams will balance out eventually, especially with the waiver wire. It is just two teams who can be mostly ignored for a couple seasons, a full restart would be beyond annoying.

IMHO, its a quick fix and does not let the Ahole get away his BS. Thats all I will say, if the majority wants it like that, so be it. You could also ensure same teams to those who wanted those specifically as far as rivalries go. What do you do in poker when there's a mis-deal? lol

And may have been done on purpose, as a way of letting Gus & others know who it was and how he can mess it up for everyone else, and jdb cant or won't do anything about it. Same as several multi's that have been ID'd, probably controlled by the same AH who did it here, and submitted several times to jdb, but he is unable to verify without a doubt. All those accounts have been or are currently inactive in 20 leagues or more each, and have a negative effect on their leagues. The latest move by AH is to try to make them look more legit with activity in several of their leagues.
