    @Spohtlight Here's 100 untradeable players, with 3 that will be over 88 and a few loan players you will never use.

    Only £30 pounds, what a deal this is!!!

    @sniperfox29 lmao also at a point in the game where there are 93 rated TOTS players selling for the minimum. the value you get for those packs is beyond negative

    I can see them adding limits to them just like game limits to stop people banning themselves while still stopping cheating.

    @RadioShaqs but in what way does adding this softban stop "cheating"? What part of doing too many SBCs too quickly is cheating? Like using third party tools? MAybe they should just make their squad builder better so that people don't have to use third party tools. It is crazy how there are no ways to constrain player overalls, or make SBC template, etc.

    @Spohtlight One thing I unaware of is how people cheat. I just stay away from even know how. It’s just like they added game limits and bid market searches for cheating why they did that I don’t know but they have said it was for cheating.

    @RadioShaqs Let's be fair, by "cheating" EA actually mean the following

    Players are getting players they want without giving US all their money because that is the ONLY reason EA care about which is why they treat every player like a criminal and ban them for daring to do such things as "playing too many games in a row" (and yes, they do indeed ban players for that)

    @sniperfox29 To be fair to ea they are trying and tried to say before just slow down and you can still do them 24/7. The other option is to limit everything which pushes people to the store more than just slowing down. Would have been nice if people could have slowed down limits on games is a bummer.

    @RadioShaqs Stop making excuses

    They are literally banning people for playing a game completely legally because "well you might be cheating and that will lead to you not giving us money"

    You can actually criticise them for once, you know? Or will they ban you for it?

    @sniperfox29 Of course you can’t see asking for this will just add limits making it worse than better. You really think they will just remove soft bans lol.

    @RadioShaqs It's funny

    EA trying to claim they are doing something to stop "cheaters" in a gamer when you can literally buy the greatest team ever simply by having (or be willing to spend) more money than anyone else is laughable

    It reminds me of how Codemasters tried to take Xplorer cheats to court for allowing players to cheat in the games (which were single player) because it meant players weren't buying those cheats off codemasters.

    There is no morality here, it is a greedy company being greedy

    And you probably support them for doing it, because you are certainly against the players

    @RadioShaqs ,

    Slow down on what exactly? If an SBC can be repeated without any restrictions, where's the cheating? If you want to slow things down, just limit the number of times an SBC can be completed.

    This is absolutely ridiculous.

    Oh, I get it now...the "cheating" is that we're not spending money on store packs, right?

    @RadioShaqs that is exactly what they should do. There is no logical reason why yo should be softbanned for completing too many SBCs too quickly. they are infinitely repeatable, so let me infinitely repeat them as quick and efficient as I possibly can?

    @Spohtlight 3rd party tools is definitely against ToS. But, you're right. They should implement a better squad builder.

    @Izzy_FUT_Dubs yes of course they are against ToS. But my point is the only reason that people use those third party tools (btw, the vast majority of menu grinders do) is because of how poor and inefficient the normal squad building tools are. I still don't find it to be "cheating" necessarily although against ToS, it is harmless in my eyes.

    @RadioShaqsAh the good old days when you still blindly defended EA for anything

    No, no, no, it's not their fault, they are stopping you cheaters from doing something even though there is ZERO warning you are doing something wrong and, in fact aren't doing anything wrong AT ALL
