I have discussed with Chris and asked to make a post discussion protection when it comes to what we spend our reward points on. For instance...I improved SP Fornieless Duration this past season and it dropped back down. I didnt care so much cause it was the free christmas one but it brings up a good point
Some sort of system should be in place. I'm not saying reverse it back unless that is what people want or that they should be full refunded cause older guys will rate down.
My idea would be that if you improve someone and the rating drop back down you get a percentage refund on the reward points back ...not all of them and this would only apply for a certain period of time and to a certain age as well.
Any ideas?

I'm for anything that provides less aggravation. We're here to have fun, not watch our players bite the dust to our dismay.

I'm not opposed to some "protection" ... could be as simple as a season-long or real-life 3-month long time period where said increase cannot be dropped, or if it is, it is free to reverse it back.

My only thought with this is that right now the point system is allowing us to make a whole lot of superstars. By not having this, it slows down the pace a little bit. I had a number of reversals this last season that sucked up a bunch of points that I had planned on using to make 2-3 players much better. Now I'm going to have to decide which ONE I want to make better. It's kind of a natural brake imo.

Regular reverals would still work the same.....this would only come into affect on any player that you have paid for an upgrade with points and only for a certain period as well.

I'd be okay with maybe a one season (or one season and partial season if the upgrade is done during a season) protection. I'd probably also age cap that at 34 or so, so that old timers aren't being kept alive artificially.

I'd put age cap at 32 just cause that the well known age where the homer rating most often drops...Heck maybe even younger
and I'd be more for the partial refund on point over protecting the ratings outright.

I think one of the downfalls of Rewards is that the file gets over inflated. Im ok with a limited amount of points back but I dont want reversals.
A PD down of a recently upgraded (within a year?) player will get you 1/3 of the points back?

Agreed Spencer, that's partially why I am not liberal with the ratings in ammy drafts.

I think I'll start with a season-long protection, but only applicable to increases, not PD reversals.
