It doesn't make any sense for us to have to use Grease Monkey to use/view some of the simplest items of GLB.

Examples:
1)Numbers in scouting bars
2)Team Forum link on team page(s)
3)AI exporting
4)Player positions on leaders pages
5)Team management links on homepage box for teams owned and GM'd
6)Larger depth chart boxes - so you can see everyone on special teams for instance
7)Player hi-lite in play-by-play pages
8)Expanded text boxes for AI and forums
9)Agent names to rosters

There are others I use, but just for personal gain. I think this list would be useful to just about everybody.

Others I missed?

User notes on player pages. It's nice just to jot down build goals, tactics changes, or leave notes for myself.

This also. If he decides to go ahead and do this I want a section of the "My Account" devoted to having an on/off switch for all these things.

But the script that highlights your major/minor skills when using your SPs. This would really help new people. I know that we should let them learn by experience but it can be extremely frustrating if they do not realize what is major/minor in GLB.

Game Scout script. For popular demand.

I personally like the team rankings and the send pm feature while in forums.

However I disagree with this idea. I'd rather Bort be fixing the sim/pathing/etc before he touches these things.

A good chunk of these could be done in the offseason and added into the system in a very short time period.

I respect your opinion, however, isn't most of the work already done? It might be in another code format, but I'd be willing to bet those people who created the GM scripts wouldn't mind some credit and maybe a little flex point bonus to their account for their dedication to the game.

I am not one who made any scripts, so I am not begging, just grateful to those who made this site better for no particular reason other than they can.

And they can all be done without wasting ANY of Bort's precious time by just downloading Greasemonkey.

Not against the idea, but I say wait.

If bort can't handle some of the simplest stuff perhaps he should hire someone that can/will?

Ahhh... finally it arises. The underlying issue.

Fix THIS and then EVERYTHING goes smoother

You know that no matter how many scripts Bort adds there will always be more you think you "need" to play??

Although yes when bort gets the chance there are a couple he will probably add (he's done it before).

Plus alot of this stuff is the forum and how it looks....tbh there is a graphic design guy working somewhere and he will probably be getting some (maybe not i'm just guessing) of this stuff in the game.

Yeah, the "I can't find anyone I can trust" thing is wearing thin.

To be fair Bort has spent a ton of time/money on this so he isn't going to hire just ANYONE.

But this process should be put on HIGH priority.

I know, and I appreciate him putting a great product on the table. But you're right, it should be high priority. All great entrepreneurs had to go out at some point and take the risk of hiring people to help them. This game is getting to big to be a one man (or two man) show. There's a lot that needs to be done, and it just seems like progress is taken in baby steps. TBH, I don't know if that's because of a lack of staff or if that's just the way Bort wants it.
