Babalis1019 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 There is an annoying guy in the league that I commish that didn't make the playoffs and he is now threatening to drop all his players... He says he will find it funny to see how everyone will jump on his players. Is there any way I can lock his team? I've been going through the LM settings on ESPN and can't seem to find anything.

Boy Named Suh Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 I believe that the way to do it is to change the email address associated with his team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Or just tell him to eff off and have the rest of the league not pick up his players. If they're reasonable people they'll see through it and let them be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Most hosting services have a way to lock teams if they are pullung stuff like that. Not sure how ESPN handles it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Have you tried contacting ESPN? Their site they might know how it works. I know on CBS you can do this, but CBS sucks and costs to much so nobody uses it. (We lock our owners who are not in the playoffs out of making roster moves since they have no reason to do so.)

MothAudio Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Not familiar with ESPN but for Yahoo go into commish tools and select "lock teams" and it gives you control over a host of options to lock out any owner.

HowboutthemCowboys Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 If you're commish and can't lock it just reverse all his transactions. Then drive over to his house and pop him in the grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA Baracus Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 You cannot lock rosters on ESPN. One of their many shortcomings when it comes to league hosting. I do like that change the email account idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongHornCat Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I had an owner drop most of his team mid-season when the lopsided trades w/ his girlfriend were vetoed. I set the Season Acquisition Limit to none, then added a second owner (an email not used for my team) to his, then deleted his email. Finally I added his dropped players back to the team. Took about 30 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkraft896 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 You could also just remove the owner from the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphin_Akie Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Yeah I think you can remove the owner from the league as long as you have someone with an account to replace him. Just setup another account of your own and find a replacement in the off-season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
