Re: Petition: Lower technical foul values to make this game better

Regardless of point value or when they are entered into the system, call the fouls consistently. When something is a foul one match and the exact same something isn't called the next, it's incredibly aggravating, and no amount of "they are just overworked volunteers", "it's the FMS", etc. is going to make teams quiet down. Teams should voice their concerns even LOUDER until the GDC acts and the game is restored to some semblance of consistency.

Most MLB teams can live with an umpire who sucks at calling balls and strikes equally for both teams. But if you get inconsistent calls that favor one team over the others, watch the sparks fly.
