Require at least 2 protests to trigger a trade review from the League Office
The trade process is broken. 1 user can trigger a review to veto every trade in the league. In one league, nearly every single trade was getting vetoed. 1 user knew how to manipulate the system with specific key words in the comments to tank every trade. Objectively, by ranks and rostered %, the trades were even. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason for the vetoes.
The veto system should only be used for egregious trades or obvious collusion. We all paid the same amount of money and may value certain players and stats differently. It shouldn't…

Hire people who know fantasy
This is the second time that a trade I was involved in gone vetoed. Both trades were perfectly fine. It’s like if someone vetoes it your website accepts that veto. It has to be run by a computer. It’s a joke I paid money to be in your league and this is total ********. Get better yahoo cause I’m done with your pro leagues if you can’t take them serious.

STOP VETOING TRADES
I've played Yahoo for 20 years, this year your algorithm has gone insane, constantly vetoing reasonable trades, it's damaging the game. Tone down the algorithm!!! Roto leagues need to trade!!!

Don't push trades from 2 days to 3 days because one team member vetoed a fair trade that is going to be processed.
I recently made a trade that was accepted on a Saturday to be processed on Tuesday, either later on Saturday or on Sunday I noticed the trade processing time was moved to Wednesday. I was told that was due to at least one team member vetoing the trade (the trade being incredibly fair to both teams involved and I knew it would pass anyway) so this was annoying.
To make matter worse, one of the players that I was trading for was a Starting Pitcher (SP) who was scheduled to pitch on Tuesday, the SP ended up pitching a great…

Post the reason why trades get veto
I had a trade voided. It was a fair trade. I would like to know the comments that the other managers used to veto the trade. Maybe I am wrong but I thought that yahoo was to see if the comments have value. I hope yahoo just doesn’t just rubber stamp trade vetos.
Thank you

Don't allow trades after an injury occurs if deal was offered before the news hits.
I had a trade outstanding before an injury to Schwellenbach, The team didn't accept (and I forgot about the offer) the deal until AFTER the news of his injury came out. The "trade" should not have been allowed.

Why does it take 5 days for trades to process? Your rules state it is 2 days, but it always takes 5 days. This makes no sense.
Give trades 24 hours to be protested. If no protest, they are processed within 24 hours. If protested, they are processed within 48 hours. There is no viable reason for it to always take 5 days.
In public prize leagues, the "Time to protest pending trades" setting is set to 2 days. These days are measured in full days. For example, if a trade is accepted on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are the 2 full days and the trade will be set to process on Thursday. However, if a trade is protested by at least 1 manager, the trade is pushed back another day as it will be reviewed by the League Office.

Fantasy baseball trade protested?
Why can other league members protest my trade in a public league? Me and the trade partner both felt the trade was beneficial to both our teams. Why does the league even get a say? It’s not like I even have the option to contact the trading team to collude and make a cheating deal. We both simply agreed to a trade. It ruins the spirit of the game when the league can just veto your own opinion of your own team and make decisions for your lineup. Complete oversight for public leagues and discourages competition. Please write back and…

trade vetoing
A trade was vetoed because the pre-ranks of the players were so different yet their current ranks are very close. Trade vetoes should not be based on pre-ranks rather what their current value is. That is just common sense.
