I don't know if you guys know, but Pauly was banned for buying a Swedish 9 ball striker for 1.5 million...a very good one at that. What's the problem, you ask? Well since he is 27, some random Swedish user claimed that Pauly was cheating because the guy was so old and because the retirement policy has now been introduced...someone listened to the guy and now Pauly is banned from his football account.

I bought a 27 year old and a 32 year old for a combined total of 500k. Does that make me a cheater??? This really pisses me off...he was already considering leaving the game but now he has been booted off dishonourably.

thats terrible, really terrible. unfair. as there as many many legit cheaters in the game that dont get caught.

Yeah it really is not doing the game well...I also have a distinct feeling that it was one of the newer assistants trying to impress.

i dont think it had anything to do with the swedish user complaining. it was probably just some GA from another country, which is the same reason why some swedes havent laid down the 100 million SEK transfer

Why dont they ban the people that buy players for +€7 million :|

Transfers are assessed on a number of critieria. In this case, it would have been the fee paid in relation to the player value.

If deemed to be too high, which lends itself to a suspicious transfer, then the transfer should have been cancelled.

He should have been suspended only if there was seen to be supporting evidence of underlying heating; ie persistent overly high transfer fees, links to other clubs etc.

In addition, it's out of order to demonise assistants for making honest mistakes. If shown to be suspended incorrectly, then the account would be restored. Simple as that.

People do make mistakes, and it's very easy to criticise, not so easy to actually do the job and put the time in - dealing with support, cheats, and looking at suggestions/improvements ( since other assistants avoided it like the plague ) meant, on top of doing a working day ( involving travel ) of 12 hours, was also putting in around 4-5 hours an evening, plus I'd estimate around 12 -14 hours on a weekend.
