Commissioners can turn vetos off so this message just spreads confusion. Players in my league may not veto trades, both because the rules prohibit it and because the website prohibits it! So this message really is problematic.
Not only that, the problem with that is the "feel" part. No owner in their right mind is going to want other owners to make a trade that is going to improve their chances of winning. Any smart owner would veto every trade unless they were so bad that it actually made both teams worse. All vetoes should be left to the commissioner, who should be a person of some intellect and sound integrity that will only veto if it looks like a person is blatantly cheating to stack their team. But if a person trades Josh Brown (kicker) for Tom Brady (MVP QB :P), then that shouldn't be veoted. Dumb trade? Absolutely! Cheating? Not necessarliy. Commish's duty is to uphold the integrity of league, not micro-manage and police stupidity.
I agree 100%. If other leagues want to veto, that's fine. But FleaFlicker should not put this awful idea in people's heads, *especially* given that vetoes are an optional setting!
