I just think it'd be dumb to be penalized for having higher agility in that situation just cuz it's not the "optimal" ratio

He put a ceiling on weight/height, not on speed. In which case, it will have no effect on equipment.
At least, that's the way I read it.

Does that mean that these will still be variable, within this range, from the numbers listed on the players' profiles or that they will be static and player will go into each game with an expected height and weight from the profile page?
When the sim reads the data, it does a sanity check and makes sure it is not out of line of expected values.

I do too.
You need to have "enough" of a supporting skill. You don't have to be perfectly on some golden ratio. Although, once you have enough, it might be worthwhile to focus on other skills.

Some mods do more to hold this game back than anybody else in the community. Some mods are great and realize that they don't know everything

So, the potential weight error occurred at creation (and thus, affects player his entire career) or occurs at the start of every sim?
Because if it's the latter, what explains an individual's consistently amazing play?

I'm still getting a handle on Databases and their relationships. I have to deal with SQL and Informix.
R/S and VoIP are my specialties so I can talk packets.

I'll have a lot of players get buffed since i have some of the best builds out there on a handful of players that just don't perform, this is great.
I'm worried about my team. I've put a shit ton of time and energy into recruiting players. I've had to cut great agents with players that had incredible builds and bring in guys that had lesser builds but played better. I felt horrible doing this but I've promised the agents on the team that I would always do my best to field a competitive team. Now my team is getting borted in the middle of the season the night before we play the one team in front of us in the division tomorrow. Plus the team is reaching it's peak and a lot of the guys that have got us this far wont be able to compete in WL if we don't get there this season.
We are talking about guys like this.

That is our top 3 leading receivers, our 2nd leading rusher and a guy that has won a DMVP the last two seasons and is in the running this season from the NT spot.
All about to get nerfed. It is too late in the season to bring in other players because of chemistry. So basically my team is fucked because the evidence has been ignored for more than a month.
So you're saying that the only reason they've been producing is due to some irregularity in the sim(We'll say it's plausible it could be some X-factor, or that it could be a mis-calculation of weight)? I'm sure they're built fine, and they all have p low weights, so you shouldn't have anything to worry about...

But Bort, you've given two conflicting answers here.

More and more tangible, pretty irrefutable proof kept being presented, and it's met with laughter over relying on some dumb speed script, and other pretty ignorant takes.
And now, after all this time and right smack dab in the middle of the season, Bort finally acknowledges that there was a problem and without announcement just nerfs the hell out of this even though he's not exactly 100% sure that he's fixing it, he just knows there's an obvious problem he can't ignore any longer and he's going to do what he can to eliminate that.
So after PT re-opens up his wideout Slow Aschit's build, a guy who would have easily been one of the best players in GLB for the next few seasons, spends months of time diagnosing the problem, scouring game logs and through speed script data collecting evidence and presenting it in here and to the mods and getting nothing but a cold shoulder in return, after pretty much changing how he recruits and altering the makeup of his team by looking for these "x factor" type players that Bort and the mods claimed were just eating at Taco Bell and there was nothing to this problem, and getting his team which he's owned since GLB started well over a year ago back into Pro and in a position to possibly win a USA Pro title...
After ALL of this, probably getting his top wideout and a lot of the players on one of the best teams in the entire game effectively stripped down and nerfed in all likelihood, after months of screaming about this problem to no avail to the heads of this game who publicly just tossed aside all the hard work he was doing presenting evidence, people are STILL giving him shit? Really?
Unbelievable. I'm at a loss for words.
