Any nostalgic managers still playing OFM?

Well, maybe and unfortunately the developers have their own goals geared towards mobile user numbers and do not care about the core original user base. You do see this across many platforms and tech. It is a risk as that loyalty that you will not necessarily get with app (2/3rds of apps on phones remain regularly unused) users cannot be re-earned if the users have already left. Longevity is clouded by short-term gain or losing keeping your eye on the centre, look at Kodak for example.

I saw this with FM too, whereby they have lost many loyal fans (myself included) by becoming overcomplex or not catering to establised user needs.

@ruby2003 I have some. Damn I still remember those leagues and stuff like it was yesterday and for some it passed like 5 years or something

[Majstor Matt]

Oh man, I managed to find some Aces crew leagues.. damn we had so much fun here..

[ruby2003]

@majstor-matt thanks so much!! Not gonna lie, I do miss them days so much!!

[ruby2003]

@tommy-timbers I think it is harder to cheat now, app doesn’t have logout button to harder to multi account on the app! But I’d say there’s still a few knocking about!

I think I recognise you, I think we may have been in same crew at one point, not sure what crew but your name rings bells!

@tommy-timbers Why a new account and not 'revive' the old one?

And I didn't forced you to take the CM position... I invited you and you agreed on trying, you could always step down to the cheat hunter task

Nice to see you back.

Sophie @SUPERNOVA-8 is still around but way less active latelly, but once in a while she pops up to delight us with her posts.

About old OFM images.... how many of you remember names on this squad:

[ruby2003]

@tommy-timbers Yea

[SUPERNOVA 8]

@tommy-timbers Woohoo! Look who's back in Osm town! Welcome aboard to the new forums old chap. Feels soooo good to see you here. This one goes for you and your new nick name.

[SUPERNOVA 8]

@specialone Oh Charlie! You're the best and you know it ! Thanks for your post and feedback dear.

content, so

Of course that's a reason but are we all gonna pretend it wasn't for the fact the game changed both the Manager Points/Ranking System and changed the tactics engine? That's what actually pushed many legends to leave and therefore the forums being in this dire state.

Anyway, since we're sharing, you might recognise some of these names (I'm also kinda bragging)

And a crew battle sheet of us getting absolutely trashed by the one and only RO MANIA. Wonder if any of the big crews are still around?

@deif-13

Oh yeah, I stopped playing competitive for years so I totally forgot about the MP Ranking system change. That one for sure pushed away too many legends of the game. Years and years of hardwork pushed away in a moment. I cant believe that they havent considered putting some sort of "Legendary Ranking", at least in records page, which wuould honor most loyal customers and showed them respect by showing them how much MP's they earned in their whole career...

Worst decision this game ever made. I do support most of the aspect of nowadays ranking system, but there should be some sort of system that would benefit those most loyal as well.

[Cutters Choice_NL]

@specialone Tijhouse left us... Did you hear that?

[SpecialOne]

@furrax_nl Yes I did...

Sad loss for Gamebasics and for OSM...

For those interested on knowing a bit more about it, you can read it in here - Dutch only

[ruby2003]

Hi @dhrubo! I remember you! This will sound really weird but I’m pretty sure I used to love your old avatar! Hahaha

[Octi]

@tommy-timbers Welcome back, mate!

[Octi]

Not OSM staff league

This was a team from 2009 OSM world championship. Team build up with active and ex staff members and also with Gamebasics accounts.... Almost a decade passed already!

[Vinçentó Beçker_NL]

The phrasing “nostalgic manager” sounds very kind. Haha. What makes one nostalgic tho?

[Cutters Choice_NL]

I'm nostalgic on the Dutch version.
