help with a cheater 

Post#1 » by bobobolas1 » Tue Oct 13, 2009 10:41 pm

Hey people. im playing a H2H in yahoo and a guy made 4teams in the league.he is the commish and he is the only who can veto the trades.

he is making two superstar teams and two losers with trades like wade-marion-butler-lewis for TJ-foye-maggete and delonte west.

the other trade is bryant, pierce, jamison and garnett for jason thompson, hughes, jianlian and haywood.

what can i do? id like to have that spot to make another team? where i can complain? do you think yahoo mods will lock the league or something?

thanks in advance

if i were you i would just leave. no point in playing in a league where there isn't any real competition, just some guy with no life that is screwing around by beating himself in fantasy basketball

One guy dropped Kobe Bryant in my league. He was of course picked up by somebody else.

Note this is a public competitive winner league.

I've emailed Yahoo! twice. They claim the appropriate action was done twice, which has been nothing tangible. I sent back a response to ask what they had done and they claim they cannot reveal that information to me of what interaction they have with team managers. It's bull and I'm public.

In your case you've been hoodwinked since it's a private league and they do not intervene. You already drafted too so you can't get out. Good luck.

if i were you, i would go to that ahole home, and kill him. but since i'm not you, i would advise you to be more careful about joining fantasy leagues, and also leave that league, cuz there is absolutely nothing you can do.

ok thanks people. it is a pity because in that yahoo account i had many trophies and this is going to stain my profile.

I will try to trade with another player all my starts tho maybe he is vetoing the trade, lol. hope yahoo ban him for life.

my team was:

PG: D-williams, monta ellis, Iverson
SG: Kevin martin, eric gordon, Nocioni
F: Salmons, David West, Beasly.
PF: Bosh, Boozer, Landry
C: Okafor, Love, Jermaine O'neal.

Pretty good for a H2H

You missed the part where I said that the league is a public competitive winner's league. There is no commissioner but Yahoo! itself, and they do diddly but autoreply with generic excuses.

Organize a sit-in with all the other owners. Just have them put all their players on the bench (not start anyone) so it becomes the cheaters own little masturbation league and he looks like a douche. Then create a new league and invite all of them to join and find some non-douches to fill it out.

First, you take a hanger and put it on the radiator for like 20, 30 minutes.
