Thanks, gillispie. The thing is, I do auto-renew always, but don't always have the funds. St. Mary's only hit first round exit last season, I assumed I had enough funds left over, and then lost the team for a moment. And someone applied for that squad VERY fast - I'm pretty sure I tried to get that team back at 5 or 6 AM and someone was already on it. The loophole only works of course when there's competition and you have to wait a day for the spot.
I will say this, too. It's pretty hard to prove you're NOT doing something, other than your word. If someone wants to donate a 5 or 10 pack lol, I'd be happy to never have these issues again - but HPU is my only consistent "money maker" - my other squads don't always net enough funds for a renew, and i'm not swimming in cash IRL. Sometimes I forget. Sorry. Lets fix the loophole so nobody cares if I forget. That would be best.
