PRIVATE RULES FOR STARGELL @ MONUMENT PARK
1) WIN PCT REQUIREMENT: Any team that accrues 108 losses (54-108 or worse) in one season will be reviewed for tanking or neglect Minimum win requirements for two consecutive seasons is 110 (110-214 record). Three seasons is 182 (182-304 record).
2) ROSTER/MINORS: All owners are required by ML game 9 of the regular season to have a minimum of 25 active players at each minor league level. Owners will be given up to 9 HBD cycles to address any minor league team falling below this requirement at any point during the season. This means 25 active players playing within their positional merits: position players not pitching, pitchers not playing the field, catchers not playing shortstop, and so on.
3. ABSENTEEISM: Owners should not go without logging in for over 5 days without prior warning. Owners are encouraged to find another owner (not one currently in the world) to watch over the team if an extended absence is required/expected. Absent and non-communicative owners after 14 days will be replaced.
4. CITIES: A team may change home cities no more than 2 times in any 5 season period. This does not apply to ownership changes.
5. CHAT BEHAVIOR: Zero tolerance for "bullying", name calling, personal attacks, and otherwise immature, disrespectful behavior either in the forums or the trade chats. An owner who is guilty of this more than once will be reviewed on a case by case basis with the end result possibly being not being invited back for the following season, or, if the violation is against the T.O.S. of WhatIfSports, IMMEDIATE dismissal. This world is too good for that stuff.
