Removing this feature makes fantasy a pay-to-win, and removes the competitive side for this game.
Why is there a paywall to play your weekly fantasy team? What about the people who are not able to check in every day? As a commissioner, I work really hard to make our league fair and everybody gets a chance to win their matchups/the season. This is not it, I'm afraid this will scare people away from your platform. And specifically removing this feature right on the start of the season. What a scam!
