This will be my last season in HD Allen and I have quite a bit of money to spend. I thought it would be fun to "poach" the recruits of a coach who has a history of doing so to others. Please make nominations here, and I'll sitemail you to narrow the field.

If you don't believe there is such a thing as "poaching," you may nominate a particularly disagreeable coach whose forum and coach's corner posts do not contribute to a happy gaming experience.

Forgive me if this sounds preachy or if I am peeing on the parade, but I'm not a fan of this philosophy. Many people here seem to have occasional disagreements with others, but I don't think that those people should perhaps become a target of this type of action, possibly negatively impacting their experience here for up to 4 or 5 seasons...

Also, you are coaching a D I big 6 school, and I feel it would be much more honorable to recruit with your same level of vigor and intensity to leave the next coach with as fine an incoming class as possible.

Just my $.02

With 4 openings and a C prestige, maybe you would have better luck "poaching" from DII teams.

Are you serious? "Im quitting HD so if you want me to RUIN someone's recruiting then sitemail me". Seriously get out of here. I hope someone reports this.

what is there to report? poaching is not against the rules. granted don't like it but it is all legal.

Yeah but posting on the forums "whose recruiting do you want me to ruin" is.... its against the fair play guidelines.

who cares.. its a pretend game with pretend players. lighten up a little. everything has to be fair eh... if your so worried you turn him in...

I HATE when people say this.

We pay REAL money for HD.

So I will take it as a serious thing.

Some guy because he is about to quit the game wants to go out like a douchebag is searching for someones recruiting to ruin just cause. Thats just wrong, and technically its collusion.

Poaching and what he is talking about are different.

You "poach" someone when they didnt protect their players, or have themselves too far spread out, and obviously too make your team better.

Not just cause you are going out.

This from a guy who got so upset about joking and trash talk on a CC that he reported it to CS and got users suspended.

Maybe that experience turned sabres to the dark side. ;)

This is the guy who reported me to Customer Service right? The pretend customer service of this fake game that we pay real dollars for?

My pretend words sure seemed to upset him back then, if indeed this is the man in question.

I would poach him but he fled the Big East upon my arrival.
