- Training exemption.

It only serves to help you not to be extra taxed, or punished, as you like. Helps a little, but not even close enough.

- Merchandising are already higher for trained draftees and local.

They are, but not even close enough, more like some petty cash...had my own draftee for 14 seasons, was a strong backup player in 6 trophy runs, maybe 5-10k weekly altogether.

- GS hit and there is a limit up until when you can buy a player to play in PO. That is not daytrading, that's renting by the way.

Yes i know, thanks to point that out to me. This was a good move, and with game shape.
With little changes it could help to fight daytrading.

- Bought players can't be sold within the first week. If you fire someone, how is that daytrading ?

If you fire 1 player it happens, but if you fire 100 players it also hurts the economy in a big way, and because of your witch-hunt against daytrading fireing became sometning that happens on day to day basis.

You are firing in all directions, not everything linked with daytrading, contrary to the taxes who aim towards teams who sell a lot or want to resell immediately.

Taxes aim towards all teams and users, and with time those taxes destroyed transfer market and free flow of the players. The prices are so owerblown that this is becoming ridiculous.
And i am not applying to last tax change, it is just making bad thigs worse, it's taxes alltogether.

I didn't expect that you will understad, and my english isnt so strong as it was 10 years ago.

But since you DO have a noble cause to attend i will stop here for now in respect for that.

To tell you the truth even my poll's question isn't quite right, i really dont care about daytrading, but i honestly do believe that the way you are fighting it is hurting the game in the long process.

Even if you dont intend to remove or lower the taxes, i would politly like to ask you to try to consider some extra (extra + those existing at the moment) rewarding system for those that have long term team players. So that owners who keep their players on the long term could really benefit from that.

Or maybe make that tax percentage of the money from the daytraders profit to go to the previous owner team, now that could be a nice positive change, so that the money doesnt go to waist, naturally if it is possible to implement that into the game.

Abusing newcomers is bad. It is.

As we have an auction system set the starting price for all player sales to $1 - Problem fixed. Most of the players will either not be listed than (no more "fake" auctions) and sold for the true market price.

But as BB has a tendency to find the most complicated solution to every Problem, I can understand why you want to keep the tax system.

Bring back daytrading.

NO! Don't!

The recently introduced taxes are a good first step toward eliminating or curtailing daytrading.

Buy/sell system should stay the same...i agree...

Now, in real life taxes go to some purpose, hypotetically, but here taxes just serve to draw money from the game and they dont offer nothing in return.

Ok, now you have repressing system in form of taxes for daytrading, but on the opposite side game doesn't offer much to users who keep players for longer periods, and i'm not just talking about your own draftees, i would also include bought players that are part of the team for over few seasons.

I don't do daytrading, but i like to sell and buy players from time to time because it's interesting part of the game.

Arround 5-10% users do daytrading...and for that all of us are hevilly taxed and get nothing (or very little) in return...am i really the only one who sees problem in that?

Yeah I get really spend-happy when I get loads of money. Usually that ends up in me either getting a garbage player or buying a guy I can't afford at the beginning of each week.

There is a couple guys I wan't to sell, but since I have to wait to sell them, I will probably go negative money next week.
