Think about it, if a person is going to tank you know they will take 5 or so seasons to stock up players and another 5 for them to develop and finally win. That's 10 seasons. That's $250 for WIS and 10 seasons of owner stability for the world. Think about it.

Yep good idea get 4-5 season from 1 or 2 owners while driving 20 or more of the other owners away from the world OR just ticking them off so much the world chat turns into a really nasty mess. Yea please 1-2 customers while ticking off 20+... good for business NOT BLOODY LIKELY

Tanking is cheating. It ruins the integrity of the world. These people can also selectively tank against teams they like or step it up against teams they dont and effect pennant races. No excuse for it. Field the best fully developed team you can with players playing where they belong and no one will say a word.

I've seen a tanking team win in 4 seasons. Don't forget, stockpiling talent means you've got lots of ammo to trade for stud ML talent.
