PROFILE BUTTON ON TEAM PAGES
This is a very cool feature which allows you to identify the owner of a team by clicking on the "Profile" button on the team page. Clicking it will link you directly to that owners profile here at these forums. It's very easy to set up. Here's how:
1. Find your "Forum ID":
1a) Look to left of your posts, just below your location. You can see that my forum id# is 71.
OR
1b) Click the profile button under one of your posts. The number at the end of the URL address in your browser is your profile number. If you click mine right now you will see that mine is 71. When you click yours it will be whatever number is in the same place.
2. Open your smallball loader.
3. Click on "Settings".
4. Click on "Change Profile".
5. The bottom box is labeled "Forum ID". Enter that # in the box and click "Update". The Profile button will appear on your team page shortly. If it does not appear, then try opening and closing your trainer then looking again. Sometimes it takes the page some time to update, so be patient.

Kyle wrote: | That ST (Standard Trainer) training help and tips site is so way out of date. For the BEST throw/catch results in ST here is what you want to do:
Drag the CF off the field. When he starts to run back to position, you need to place the mouse on him and left click on him to make him stop where he's at. This may take some practice to get it down. After that, simply select your RF and turn on fielding (DO NOT select another player until you turn fielding off). Your 2B and 1B will now throw two balls back and forth to RF. At first, they will miss a lot of balls and may get some run gains from chasing the balls. Move 3 more players to those positions once they are done. When you come to the last 3, you'll have to put that CF that you took off the field and put him in one to the training positions....then move the current CF off the field just as you did before.
In the beginning they will get more catch gains than throw, but the throw gains will be greater after a few sessions of it. Good Luck! |
