No Trade Clause - Tired of lopsided trades?!? Topic

I believe that is correct on the mwr. I think the openings happen because people try it for a year or two and decide the no trade thing just doesn't appeal to them. You can see by the previous seasons standings how balanced the teams are and there has never been any drama (no trading will do that, prevent drama). We just need owners who enjoy the concept and have some patience.

Yes, that's correct.  That rule modification got added in to provide folks with 2 full off-seasons of free agent acquisitions to improve their team, rather than just the one initial off-season from the start.  What's different (and one of the things I love) about this world is that you don't have to have a bunch of superstars to go deep into the playoffs.  There really isn't that large of a gap between the 70 win teams and the 95 win teams.

As foulballz mentions, the openings come from the polarizing rules.  It's either someone's favorite world (if they love the concept) or least favorite world (if they can't live without trading).  So most of the openings are from folks who said, "I'm glad I tried it, but it just isn't for me."  So it takes a little patience (both in filling at rollover, and with building your team), but the folks who are here love it!

Yes, love it. The lack of trading means much less chat board drama. It's a great concept for experienced owners who want to see if they can build a winning franchise through minor league development, and for new owners who want to learn the HBD game without worrying about being taken advantage of by trade sharks.
