the injuries slider maybe just even one rung but the PIM slider needs to be altered drastically ASAP

I voted yes but only to reduce injuries a little bit and penalties more.

I adjusted the sliders before last night's sim. For some reason, the penalty slider was near the top, so I bumped it down two notches and bumped the injury slider down one.

I will be honest, I really don't like the changing of the sliders, especially during the season.
Had I known penalties were going to be lowered, I probably would have kept Parise as that was my only real issue with him.
Besides it being a much easier pill to swallow in the offseason (and from a different position that "bitter about a trade"), I don't see why/how you would change the rules of the game in the middle of the game.
Between finances, waivers and this stuff, there's clearly things worth talking about this off season. A random 24 hour post with only 16 responses (barely half the league) shouldn't cut it.

i dont see the big deal in changing the sliders mid-season. it doesnt change the rules at all, it just changes game-to-game statistics. it effects all our teams equally - no team is put at a disadvantage because of the changes, so to me it's not a big deal.

I agree with you in a sense but I think this problem was just way overdue. The stats the Blues GM was giving about injuries and penalties were starting to become rediculous. Every other rule change can wait until the offseason but something like this which has been majorly affecting how team's are preforming in the sim needed to be address as soon as possible, or else we might as well have just awarded the cup to the most disciplined team in the league and called it a day.

Injuries I'm cool with. You can't do anything to prevent injuries and no one wants to see them. Zero problem with a change to that because that's clearly for the better.
But if you don't like penalties then get more disciplined players.
I have 4 guys below 70 in discipline for a reason, and 3 of them are scratches and 1 is on my 3rd d-pair.

I have 4 guys below 70 in discipline for a reason, and 3 of them are scratches and 1 is on my 3rd d-pair. that's the problem - disciplined players like stephen weiss and alex semin are on pace for over 100 pim seasons. that's ridiculous and just flat out stupid, and silly. it makes the sims unrealistic and just not enjoyable. i could complain about the finances being fixed...i traded for $$ thinking i was going into the red soon....and then suddenly we all get $50,000,000. but i didnt complain because ive run a sim league before and i know it's not easy to please everyone. the majority of the league agrees that the penalties are ridiculous and needed to be reduced...so thats what happened and i agree with the move.
