Since when are we allowed to enter more than one team in an OL?
I just joined an OL and noticed this guy had 3 teams in that league.
Has WISNBA fallen that low or this is some kind of mistake?
Talk about conflict of interest, let's say the guy wants to help one of his team by tanking versus certain teams or playing his starters full 48 against other teams, the possibilities are endless to screwing up the leagues balance...

It is no more unethical than people who steal other peoples ideas to create their team ideas (not saying this is you).  The OL's are screwed up and no fun.  People often have two teams in theme leagues.  It isn't that big of a deal.  The best team will win accept when the sim goes haywire.

Ive been around here forever and it's always been this way and I've never heard anyone complain about it nor seen that kind of behavior (and owners with two teams in the same open league are pretty damn rare anyhow)

I myself have frequently played two teams in the same theme league in order to help get the league filled and there are many others who have done the same
 
and its damn hyperbolic to be crying about 'unethical' behavior in a game

finally you act as if any of that kind of manipulation stands a chance of influencing game outcomes in the face of the mountain of randomness that is the sim - for example what does having your team go 'all out' even mean? play your starters 48 minutes? bfd

this is a good point but i think in general people just make multiple teams and like to see them play each other.

in the end if someone wants to get that sort of edge there is nothing WIS can do to stop them. i personally have like 6 or 7 accounts. i made multiple accounts many years ago to play exhibition leagues between all teams that i've made (to test things out)

that was a simple question...
now I am being called a hyperbolic crier... whatever that's supposed to mean...

just using the credits I won with the championship i got from the free team they gave out for 2010 players, otherwise i wouldn't waste my time or money with this game...

In SLB we can't enter two teams in an OL, for very obvious reasons... Of course I shouldn't expect WISNBA to follow the same logic... Not following any logics is what got them where they are in the first place... Why change now while they can't sink to a lower level...
At the moment, in SLB you can enter more than one team in a champs league (which is just a "super OL").
