The Cleveland situation

The Cleveland Thunderbolts are in ridiculous shape and the owner hasn't logged on in nearly 2 weeks. As I did with the previous LA owner, I'll let nature run it's course until he gets booted by MFN for not logging in.

San Antonio's 161 points is probably a record but I don't feel like looking that up right now. Ten blocked punts went for TDs, and I bet a few more were blocked that weren't TDs. Totally ridiculous and I would boot him if the MFN user base was more robust.

This is the second owner who has been brand new or returning after a long absence that immediately disappeared, leaving behind a punt block train. I'm starting to think someone may be trolling or something.

Unfortunately their actions will cloud my judgement of the next newbie to come along. I hate having open teams but I also hate having situations like this where they are trying to become the worst team ever in all of MFN history.

If I even allow a newbie to take a team will depend on my mood on the day I see an ownership request, and if I do allow it, the leash will be short like I used to do it before subscriptions. I will allow mistakes at first but I better see a response to my PM about it, either a PM back or just taking corrective action.

AI screws open teams up but nowhere near as bad as this Thunderbolt trainwreck. I'm sorry.

I have the same owner situation in the XFL with a new owner joining and he hasn't logged in since his join date.

Sad times in MFN for filling leagues!!!

I hate that this punt block train happens weekly but once some teams benefit, I feel I need to let it go as fairness to other teams coming up on the schedule. Every day I have to resist the urge to hit the red remove owner button on him.

These type of things kill my motivation to do write ups though, as some may have noticed.
