I say please explain...I'm confused...it blows my mind, and I'm the one raging? There was no outrage by me, not even when Newt swore at me. Apparently one needs to have a boring, generic, bland post to not get people up in arms. Or maybe I should try ending all posts with smiley faces or similar emoticons. Better yet, I'll no longer use periods☺ All punctuation will henceforth be replaced with happy symbols😘 Happy Valentine's Day😍

There isn't really anything anyone can do for you if you don't even understand that you are socially awkward. But yes, if you attempted to make your posts "bland" it would probably go a long way towards helping.

Have you noticed that the majority of your (that's plural) comments are attacks against me instead of having any relevance to the suggestion? Strange. You know why? Because you hate to admit I'm right. Did you forget what this thread is about? The test leagues should have a league level that diffentiates them from the rest of the teams. It would also be helpful if there was some mention of them in the manual. Updated Sunday, February 14 2016 @ 12:52:06 pm PST

Secondly what specifically bugged me was the first sentence, "players in the PAC-12 should not show up as League Level 1!" That is an exclamation point, and sounds very much like a demand rather than a suggestion which usually ends in my experience with a period. Additionally, "They need to get assigned as 7 or C(ollege) or * or P or anything but 1. What the heck!" The word "need" implies something must be done, and the further exclamation at the end though devoid of curse words was something I'd expect more after a pennant run collapses rather than after a player doesn't seem to be panning out after a few starts and was not from the league that someone thought they were from. I will admit, the "Edit" section is much more polite, and to your credit you never went back to ninja edit things even after I confronted you, but the first few sentences did not read as polite to me. Fortunately, you only have to convince Steve, as my opinion really doesn't matter. I don't know how to make all those smilies, though I will add one I do know at the end here Edited to expand on the apology. Updated Sunday, February 14 2016 @ 10:40:32 pm PST

Otherwise bumping it down to a lower level would work, though I think that could get confusing for different reasons, which are unimportant and irrelevant.

I was attempting to explain why I thought 1 wasn't a good league level for the test leagues, but apparently some of my comments were off the mark and hit unintended targets. My bad. I don't have any ill will toward anyone here. Regarding my exclamation points and such, it was meant to show my surprise that I had played for a year and a half and had never seen or heard anything about the testies. 😶😶 (Sorry, I couldn't pass up the juvenile humor.) Peace, bros.

What a big disappointment he turned out to be Showing TEST or even PAC12/CAN12 will be very beneficial for everyone, especially new owners
