Online CFM needs to offer more abilities for commissioners

[Mr. Face]

I help run a Madden league on reddit. We just had to remove a player for toxicity and repeated rules violations. We did not know he was controlling two other teams on separate accounts. When we removed him from one team he immediately cut all of his most expensive players on the other two teams. Unfortunately there is no easy way to fix this problem. We have to use alternate accounts to join as those teams, clear the cap penalties with the main accounts, sign the players back with the alt accounts, and then adjust the contracts manually with the terrible contract editor in the player edits screen (editing one contract can take an hour or more). This stuff kills leagues. It needs to be fixed.

That stinks and I hate to hear things like that. But what solutions in regards to abilities do you think will keep something like this from happening?

Either the option to completely revert roster moves (probably more difficult to implement) or changing the contract editing system to the same as the contract screen for re-signing players or signing players in the off-season. The contract editing right now is incredibly time consuming. When 20+ players get cut and all of them have huge contracts we could be looking at a full day of contract editing. Just that, just editing the contract $10000 at a time.

That contract editing interface is a massive fail.

It is extremely/painfully slow

I think another thing comishes need to have available to them is the ability to strip draft picks from teams, without them going to another user...

I remember back when NHL had the online franchise that if there was a trade offer the commissioner had to approve it before it went through. Something like that would be useful. Then if the commissioner wanted to trade they can have a handful of people from the league vote to approve or disapprove.

Stripping draft picks would be huge, also suspending players without having to nerf their abilities and stripping players of their funds would be great.

But the biggest thing that could help us would be if we could throw scores and statistics from a single game out before advancing.
