Believe it or not, but that was the original thought behind the idea i posted above.

I just thought it would be more simple for Pete to just add an experience penalty to the already existing hit on morale and TC.


I very valid thought, but there should really be a lot of discussion before it's being voted on.

Using Johnny P's example and expanding it a bit:
(For example, my current QB was drafted as a QB, spent several seasons as backup QB, before I switched him to CB to fill a hole. )

Should a player lose 3/4s of their experience because they moved to a different position for a few games? Sounds like Special Trait: Amnesia


Would it be more reasonable if exp was split in half?
Up to 2.5 stars of "base exp" - showing up for practice, watching film, etc. - gained every training update
Up to 2.5 stars of "positional exp" - training at position X - gained based on a combination of training updates at that position (for the YA) and/or snaps at that position (for the senior team)

I'd be perfectly happy if teams could not play any players out of position at all.


That's just ... ( I have nothing nice to say )
DEs can't play OLB, RBs can't play FB, CBs can't play SF ...

Since this came out of an YA discussion, what is your plan exactly?
If more then 50% of YA-Players have the same position, reduce Ticket income by 30%?


if this penalty gets triggered by the YA too, than I'm totally against it. i also dont get the idea if it was only concerning the actual depth chart - we not just increase OOP?

I could see a portion of non-YA causing a penalty. That said, where I know my team won't be competitive, I'd likely just move enough players to be EXACTLY at that %.

I actually like the suggestion about doing some sort of overhaul to coaching setup better - than penalizing people who were simply trying to maximize the current one.

I wholeheartedly agree on this point.

To those who have done this at some point in their history (I am a prime and very recent example) - then my very humble and respectful opinion is that the sporting and gentlemanly vote should be a 'No' or 'leave it to Pete'

So how exactly is this going to be implimented? It kind of read like: As soon there is a player OOP on the roster, there will be less spectators.

If it is really implimeted like that without a threshold, it would go way out of line. Like for example, a few weeks ago, I had two injured OL, so I put a FB at OL on the Depth Chart, what would result in less income only because RNG hated me?
