annoyance!!!

damientheomen3 · 11-02-2009, 09:03 PM

I'm a fast simmer and I like moving quickly. In my main league, I have a weakness at catcher, so a team decided they should trade me a catcher who's worse then my starting catcher, and is signed for about $11 million more. I say no, thinking that thats just a little interuption in my simming. So then they try to give me this guy like 3 more times, and i think thats ok, thats how it usually is in this game. Then in the offseason, this team gives me an offer on this guy every 2 friggin days, severely slowing down my simming. I got so mad that I turned on commisioner mode and changed that guy to untouchable on their block so they wouldnt trade him. Talk about annoying...

Yeah. This game needs a "Refuse Player" option. It does get irritating when some AI team decides they want me to take their poor fielding (and not much better hitting) shortstop. So they offer me this player OVER and OVER and OVER. We NEED a "Refuse Player" tag.

Agreed.

I pretty much ignore any AI offers

I probably refuse 19 out of every 20 AI offers out of hand. The 20th one will be semi-interesting. The problem is that the AI wants to offer players I...

A. Don't want, because they're bad players or just overpriced.

B. Don't need. In my current league, I'm about 6 or 8 players deep in my outfield. I have so many major league calibur outfielders I'm looking to unload one or two in trades. Yet, the AI will keep offering to trade me outfielders.

This has been asked for before, with no response.

Sounds like it's time to post it in the OOTP XI features thread. I think it's a great idea.

I remember that from past versions of the game. Since I've had X, I've never even had the AI offer me a trade, which I think is odd. Especially since I always have guys on the trade block.

if your team has no holes, teams won't give you trades

It's been like this for how many versions now?

Thanks Markus, stopping annoying AI behavior is always a plus.

That's the thing... I should be getting some trade offers at least. I play as the O's, there's holes to fill.
