If that isn't griefiing, I don't know what is. I'd up and quit the game if that happened to me.

Zedicus has to come out and admit he did it on purpose for them to believe it's griefing

It's actually grief, not greif. Whether good or bad.

The reason most "good" coaches don't come after low D1aa recruits is because they know they can get far better. You are not a good coach obv.

Congrats! You found a way to beat me at this game. You couldn't beat me at the same level, so you jumped up a level just to take my recruits. So enjoy building a team full of good DII guys...I am sure you will be winning NC's like me in no time!!!

I have to admit, that I believe damauler12 is getting screwed over on this one.

Even if some D1AA school had to resort to backups, there is no logical way that six would come from one particular coach/school.  Its just not a believable story.

I believe WIS should have responded differently in this particular case.  This seems to be the very definition of what they stated is improper activity.

I don't know if it's griefing or not, but zed, if you're signing 6 DII recruits out of a 20 scholly DIAA class, you're a pretty crappy recruiter. DII to DIAA is about the biggest talent gap that exists, and even though by targeting damauler's recruits you're assured of getting good quality (for DII), even after a RS season, they'll still be in the shallow end of the DIAA gene pool. I suggest you review your recruiting techniques, so you don't get in this situation in the future. damauler put out a pretty good recruiting guide, but it's geared towards DIII. You might try site mailing vick12 for advice; I hear he's a pretty good recruiter, too.

Actually whiner,  I had 20 slots to fill and after DIAs took half my recruits I shopped my backups at the top of DII since those are DIAA guys and they are probably high potential or STL and useable.  They are a lot better than SIM picks. Ozzball lost a couple and so did another school.  When you snatched my recruits at the last minute everybody was cozy warm about it.   As for WIS's comment about being glad I  haven't signed for more,  that is real class.  F U NORBERT.  What a cheap shot by classless bastards.  Now I'm going to get another season and if I get my recruits taken by DIA schools (which I guess isn't griefing)  and find myself needing to fill a few scholies, I'm gonna look at the top teams in DII because that is where a little money can go a long way.  And WIS, RSing 3 of those picks and using the others as backups for a couple plays is a lot better than getting stuck with a bunch of your crappy SIM picks.  And since Damauler is the GOD of recruiting I'm surprised more DIAA schools don't poach some of his DIAA recruits that he sees.  So let me get this straight, as long as Damauler poaches others everybody is cool with it but heaven forbid someone does it to him.   BOO FREAKING HOO.

If you have not learned, there is a great deal of overlap between D1A and D1-AA.   There are much better ways and options ALWAYS available than taking DII recruits.  If you have not earned that, you will play 2nd fiddle to coaches who know how to recruit.  The overlap between DII and D1-AA is miniscule comparred to D1-A and D1-AA.

Hint:  You do not need to sign all your re3cruits on the 1st signing cycle.  You likely can find better alternatives than lesser level recruits by exercising some patience

I just looked at Zeds team and his "bad" recruiting last season had him playing for the CC in his first season with a long time SIM using those same "bad" recruits.  I think that is pretty good.  I see guys cherry pick teams and never play for a CC.  What a bunch of BS and cheaters around here.

Out of 20 recruits signed every one says DIAA or DIA talent.  NO DIIs!  18 of 20 are high potential.  2 Average potential.  I am doing just fine recruiting for this long time SIM.  This seasons recruits will end up better than last seasons as last season I didn't get all of the scholies filled as I put money into only part of the available ones so the guys I picked were pretty good.  The ones the SIM picked were awful.  This season I recruited some good recruits and then filled in myself instead of the SIM doing it.  Believe me, the DIAA guys I poached from the good DII teams are a LOT better than what the SIM got me last season.  Last season my "bad" recruiting netted me 2) 5 star and 3) 4 star recruits.  Of like 20 recruits I had  5 SIM picks and that will knock a class down.  But hey, those guys won't make it to the end anyways as I level out the classes.  But WIS isn't smart enough to see through that.  I am happy with MY picks last season and I like this seasons class.  I don't want nor need your advice and WIS can go screw themselves with their comments.  My record is pretty damn good and I haven't had them helping me out as they obviously are helping others.

I would like to know why I never got 10K added when people took my recruits.

That ****** me off.

I'm really glad I'm done putting money into this **** game.


Hope you go out of business WIS.
