    	    <description><![CDATA[Okay, this thread has gone on for long enough. Everybody has had their say so I'm going to close it.
One thing that I will mention before leaving here is regarding this.
<i>Quoted from TaylorSwiftFan100</i>
		<blockquote>pls never make any retarded rules like "limited to medic if played X div" or "can't play X div if you played Y div".</blockquote>

Class restrictions will never be a thing. And what we're looking at is making a rule slightly more specific for skill level.
As example. We allow an open team with 5 inexperienced players and 1 prem player.
Then mid-season they start using 2 additional prem players bringing it up to 3/6.
Seeing that they only swapped 2/6 player(33%).The hijacking rule wouldn't be applicable yet but this would still be unfair in most cases.
Which is why we'll try getting something working like limiting the amount of higher skilled players that can join during the season. This would always be reviewable with admins and we would try to keep as much into account as possible.

TL;DR Closing thread because everything is getting repeated, we're working on something and it won't limit you from playing in lower divisions while trying to make the tiers as fair as possible.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[There's only one guy who even stood near prem level, and he's not even playing his main role. Honestly if you cant handle one guy then maybe its your fault for being stuck at the bottom of the board. 
Maybe if admins investigated more and spent more time doing research on teams during the div placement there wouldn't be such a problem. I once had a team full of Invite level players in my division, did I cry? No, we beat them and later on they dropped from the league. As for now theres nothing you can do about it, contact an admin and give your opinion on how to make the divisions a better place for newbies. 
Let this thread die.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[<i>Quoted from Kemor</i>
		<blockquote>You don't have to win the division to play at higher level in the future. Div 5-6 has always been packed with pedobears, why the fuck do you suddenly care about them? SUAVY are not as scary as you'd think, all you need is a functional brain and decent teamwork. It's not like they're 14-0 or something.</blockquote>Again, thats not my point...
My point is that its unfair that your avarage open player has to face a prem one in the lowest div and get "eliminated" because of it. After all, he signed up to OPEN.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[<i>Quoted from Sprayer</i>


<blockquote>I joined this team as a sub and played an official as a soldier, because nobody wanted me in high! :(


At the start, even before I joined, I merced for them, and I can say they weren’t impressive, just a decent open team, but recently yes, they improved and became much better, even than some mid teams.


In swiss system, if you play well you’ll play THE best teams in the current division, in old division system, you had a chance avoid them. It kinda destroys the feeling of some achievement, since only one team wins the div, but you have better games in swiss system and reaching playoffs is already an achievement, which I can understand why you are a bit sad Stereo.


</blockquote>
I really don’t want to win honestly, our goal this sesaon was getting to playoffs really ;c. But I mean like, I still find it illogical, where’s the fairness?&#160;


As I stated before, my friend told me that he did just the same in mid as he did in open with the same roster really, I didnt even come to complain<i>Quoted from Permzilla</i>


<blockquote>smh


</blockquote>
You didnt play open in ages what to do you know plz


When a good solly actually bombs itd be more efficent as open meds cant surf like you prem meds


<i>Quoted from Edgeward</i>


<blockquote>btw “WHY IS OPEN 6S PLAYOFFS MID 6S?” Because Open Playoffs teams can get placed in Mid automatically next season unless they have significant changes in their roster. :)

</blockquote>
At least there arent prem players in mid playoffs usually ^^

<i>Quoted from Hajdzik</i>
		<blockquote>Because the team itself is very knew they switched half of their roster. For my personal opionion, admins should promote to start from the bottom even if players have bigger experience. I don't like personally jumping tiers with new teams. Like teams created and signing in right away for top tiers. I don't see what's the fuss about. And you're making it really silly. I've played some scrims against SUAVY as I played with them in some mixes together and I can say for sure I am open level in 6s and they were tought to play against but nothing extraordinary and definetely beatable. Lapio team proved it and draw with them. Maybe if you would put your effort in practicing instead of writing on forums you could get a chance. And what is that fight about you're in top 16 teams in open anyway and you lost against another two open teams. Even if you get into final with Suavy in playoffs is it bad to be second? It's open tier, you don't get money for winning it. You only got pixel medal on your team profile.</blockquote>


I didn't write this to complain again, I don't care myself, my team's goal was getting to playoffs then going mid.




I do care when teams play to make the game annoying and chance-less for another team, I mean I believe open players deserve to play against... uh... Open players?




Even make the changes later, just please do something against it. As someone stated, one high/prem player is fine, as he isn't playing to sandbag, more of to play with friends/help a team.




But a team full of even mid players, or even 2+ high/prem ones is really just a no-no in my opinon.




Look at open_squad for example, was a MASSIVE sandbag team, still got taken down though. So I'm saying It can be possible but more of a thing that shouldn't even happen.]]></description>
