Unless the voting takes a major turn, poaching will stay but something that might help is to extend the free agency period by a sim or 2. I got my DC from the unemployment line but anyone who got poached this sim only has 1 chance left to replace them. This might at least alleviate some stress for the poached.

We actually did vote on this back in August, 2017:

The vote was 59 percent for 3 days, 24 percent for 4 days, 17 percent for 5 days.

I remember the vote, I'm just trying to find a solution to get the complaining to stop.

I hear you. The upside of a short free agency period is that it's short. The downside is that it's unforgiving. You need to make your best moves early or there are no chairs left when the music stops.
