My point is that if you had not offered to help, this customer would have been ignored by your customer support or tech support staff.

Thank you for helping him, that is really wonderful and you didn't have to do that at all.

To the last part, and this is not me being smart, just a real question here; What if you start it up and selecet a team and all that, and decide after that you dislike the feature? Are you stuck with it? Can we turn it off?

I don't have the game yet and this isn't a feature I see me liking, but I was willing to try it out. Especially if I had to cover it for OS with an article or something. If I know the situation is not reversable I will do my best to avoid it like the plague.

Obviously you can't turn it off or else the guy would have. You're stuck with it once you do it.

If you don't want stupid pop-ups that give you points for tackling a guy or punting, then don't sign up for it.

I thought maybe you could turn it off but just not change teams any longer or something, hence my asking.

Also a round about way of getting to the point of how not smart it became to have this thing in general let alone have set up the way it is. I, however, didn't really wish to come at it that way. I am old enough to realize that just because something is not for me or my tastes doesn't mean it shouldn't exist, because someone may like it. It also doesn't mean it has to work half assed.

I understand the logic behind not wanting people to swap teams on a whim, but throughout all the discussions not ONCE did "Hey, maybe somebody legitimately wants to switch teams for non-scam, non-exploiting reasons; what do they do?" come up?

Thanks Adam I sent you a pm.
