Grand Arena

"there's zero chance of winning. "   This isn't true.  They're in low carbonite for a reason.  Either they're not very good and lose a lot.  Or (and more likely)  They're not playing at all or seldom playing.  You probably, have a better chance of winning if they hardly or never play.

"It's not even fun to play"   Well, this is true.  It shouldn't be happening.  CG, premier environment (for more than most) is Grand Arena and if your first experience is playing vs a multi-million GP account with bells and whistles....................... It's a really poor advertisement and experience.  It shouldn't be happening.

CG really need to think whether this should be an early gamer's experience of GAC; playing vs an account where win/loss is determined on whether the larger player turns up or not, it isn't right.

2 suggestions that I think need implementing is 

1. Tadpole league.  New players start in the tadpole pond and it's impossible to drop into this league.  Once the tadpoles promote out of the lily pads, they can never return.
2.  Dropping leagues.  If a player drops so many leagues or divisions that their GP is ***% over the average GP of the division, they are grouped together with only rosters that are also ***% over the average of the division.  (This only applies to rosters demoted below the average GP, and not rosters that are promoted above their average GP).

I think both of these suggests would really help GAC and wouldn't harm anyone.  It mostly would affect those that hardly or never play, so they'd hardly notice.
