How about installing a "buy it now" price?

To avoid cheating (specifically transferring a good player for too low price to your friend/mom/multi), this "right now price" should be visible only in the last 12 hours and if the normal bid goes higher in the first 60 (or more) hours it shouldn't affect the bid at all.

Instead of autobid you can buy the chosen player immediately for that price (within the last 12 hours) and you don't have to worry about your sleeping/working/school time. I guess nobody spends continuously 12 hours with sleeping/working/learning (at least you have a 5 minute break).

I hope I could word clearly what I thought about.

The level of outrage and entitlement you show persistently makes it about you an ironically your reply is mainly about you?

I just think a bit of perspective on your part might go a long way in making these kind of discussions productive. More people, including those in charge of BB, might listen to your suggestions then.

Daytrading is not a bad thing.

We want players to be active. Daytraders are active. I don't see how this increases the activity of the community or how it brings more people in.

It will use a lot more resources. Where will the funds come from to cover that? (server, programming and scripting, etc.)

I hate the buy it now feature unless some type of formula of an individual players value was determined or if all Buy it now prices where all the same value and some rather high value (2.25 million for example). This would also place a cap on the cash a daytrader could make.

Just ideas.

I started a new topic for buy-it-now price as it is connected to autobid topic but I think it's a different question.

dude, sometimes your analysis is quite interesting. however your solutions and your arguments are usually not as compelling.

it is true there are times when you get more money for your player and I don't want to argue your suggestion.

but: your transferhistory shouldn't be a valid argument in this discussion.

I checked the 20-30 players you sold and the team you sold them to. of those teams, few meet these two criteria:

a) not in the lowest league of there nation (usually IV) or in case they are from utopia (quite a lot) have an non-Utopia which does meet the criteria mentioned

b)and have been playing BB longer than 2 seasons

in fact I counted 4!.

I conclude that you sell your players mostly to noobs. maybe the time is a factor, maybe not. but the main factor is your knowledge of the market and their newbeeness.
