You are correct, sir. I gave it a try to see if it would just process or if it would 'make an account'. It simply did the process... so no harm there. I've got my VIP, I've got my awesome Gym, and I've made much ado about nothing.

That's just the thing. We were having a Forum Discussion on Bankruptcy, and some guy comes in with the classic Noob Mistake... put the whole 50K into Research on his Nutrition (which is the specific example given when it says Business is a Risk... so LOL there!). But what he was told is there is "tons of information on Businesses"... so I went to find this tons of info. Well... there isn't tons. And what there is information on is very basic stuff. For instance, I still don't see how I stock the Vending Machines at my Gym... which seems like something that would be rather simple. Do I get a Mark Up on that inventory if they 'vend' while at my Gym? Is it a profitable thing, or a break even that is merely an 'attraction' for Fighters who now don't have to wait for Delivery Times on Nutrition? It's also a very clunky way of doing it... I SHOULD be able to order directly from the machine, like I sit at the computer in the Office and purchase from there for it to be filled. But that's not how it's done. Now, I think there is a way to enter an Agreement with a Nutrition Company for Gyms, I tried the Helsinki Gym (since I'm based in Helsinki), but they are already at the 'cap' and can't take on more Gyms. So I assume I have to find a Nutrition Company outside of Helsinki now and get an agreement with them. It's just that usually in games like this, such information is in the forms of Player Made Guides which earn a Sticky or Pin at the top of either New Player or (Related Topic) sections in the Forums... for Businesses that would be New Players and/or Other Businesses. Because when I ask... I keep getting vaguely directed to that 'tons of information on here'. Not a link to the information, or if a link then to the Wiki Pages which are very parse and that I've already been over. I've seen some OUTSTANDING work on Builds... so I know the type of people that enjoy putting that stuff together are in this Community... which is why I was shocked I couldn't find the same for Businesses.

My Gym just went Private by pure luck of a great Benefactor. His 15 Fighters and my 10 now get Access to 12 Top of the Line Trainers, and we are working schedules to make sure no Sessions are diluted. Of course, the 1K for 25 Fighters doesn't cover the 52K Cost of the Trainers, but he's also giving 30K a Week directly. So at the end of the day, my Loan is already paid off, I cover Trainer Costs Weekly and I Profit about 3-4K a Week... which is fine by me... along with my 10 Fighters getting Top Training. But then, as I said... I got completely lucky and some one approached me (I assume from seeing Posts about my Gym). So the best Advice that I can offer being as new as I am... is to talk to people. Get the word ou that you have a Gym... and maybe some one gives you a deal like the one I got. Sure, I won't get rich... but rich wasn't the idea. Profit while training my own fighters... a tad over Break Even plus Gains... that was the idea. Which I now have. Remember, this is also a Social Game (almost all are these days) and the easiest way to move forward is with the help of others. No one can help you if they don't know what you can offer or need.

I would love to know WHERE to read up on coaches. I've been in Noob and in Businesses, and I can't find any actual Guides. I did get the Wiki Page, and it says Coaches get better over time (which makes the idea of going 150/150 bad, since he can't move up in that category), but it doesn't talk about anything in depth. That's what I'm having an issue with... I would think such Guides would be Sticky to either the Noob or the Business (or really, both) Forums. With something more in depth than the paper thing information the Wiki links have given.

I have. Sadly there isn't really anything there for Businesses either.

Doesn't have Guides for each Business in a Sticky Post at the top. I mean... this IS the Business Forum. Seems the most logical place to get Information, Guides and Stratigies for each of the Businesses. Yet I look at the top, and where the first 5 Posts should be a Sticky for "Forum Rules", "Gym Guide", "Nutrition Guide", "Clothing Guide" and "Organization Guide", that's not what I see. So if not here, where are those great and glorious Business Guides?

I have a Gym in Helsinki, open to all. I realize the Training will become diluted, but new players need some where to start. Some Training is better than no Training. I put a 150/150 BJJ and a Balanced 75/150 Everything Coach in there. I'm going to need about 25 Fighters in this Gym to cover the Trainer Costs, and then work on more for the Loan Repayments.

I was going to request Noon Funds... then realized it's Midnight here. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.

10 Fighters based in Helsinki needing Helsinki Contracts. Not looking to relocate. (301397) Aaron Anderson (301403) Brenden Bannerman (301404) Charlie Cavanaugh (301405) Dennis Davidson (301441) Elijah Elwood (301443) Frederik Fillmore (301444) Gheorge Gannon (301448) Henry Hollister (301449) Imon Islonodal (301450) Janoris Janikowski Again, all are in Helsinki and looking to join one of the Helsinki Organizations.

I don't have nor want PayPal. Especially if the only thing I have it for is to put money into this game. I don't need an 'extra' thing. Would simply be nice to use my Card without need of PayPal.

I was going to VIP for 3 Months... but since the only way I can do that is Pay Pal, I guess I'm not. Would be really awesome if we could just input our Debit Card information and be done with it.
