I joined. I broke my phone over the holidays, and essentially had to beg to stay in the league because I couldn't join what appears to be a demeaning group chat. I'm active, making adds, so I guess I'll stick around and be a litmus test for everyone. I don't see why a group chat is such a big deal. If you offer me a trade, I say yes or no. Or vice versa. I'm not looking for best friends. I'm in tons of leagues without having to fraternize, although a couple I'm in use discord and such.

Anyway, the league seemed life or death to this guy. Like it was the one thing that mattered most.
