What's the point of showing player position ratings when I can't change the player position type? I can no longer place a player in the depth chart at a position type other than what it is. All the flexibility and creativity in forming a roster is now gone.

If you are in a private league your commish can change those settings with the position change matrix. If you aren't in a league with a commish, you can join a league that does.
but why? It's easy to tell people to do this and do that but there's no *why* in the reply. If it's about getting the right admin, the right league, etc, then just say so.
I still don't know why anyone would pay for full customization only to have a league admin limit *any* possible customizations.
As a casual player, it would be helpful and should be required that league admins post clear rules, about everything they've selected in the league options, and about everything they are trying to enforce beyond basic MFN rules (position specifics, weight requirements, how players can be used, etc).
At some point JDB is going to have to clarify that paying for customization is dependent upon the league admin dictations. That paying for full customization does not mean one gets full team and roster customization.
Not sure which paying customer holds the priority, but MFN better figure out the hierarchy very soon.
I will not pay for the ability to do something that someone can also pay to stop me from doing. Paying for "full team customization" is a lie. It's false advertising as long as someone else can pay to stop me from the experience i've paid for.
There is a serious problem with the pay for play tier as they currently stand in MFN. The problem is people can pay to prevent me from getting what i've paid for.

Might be that my following comment brings a little light to that:
You have Standard leagues and Custom leagues. As I do understand it, in a Standard league the Player might get the right of FULL customization and in a Custom league the Admin (owner of that league) has the right to limit customization according to his rules.
Thank you for the unnecessary reminder. A+ on the misdirection and the effort to make it look as though a 8 year player who also has administered multiple leagues in the past that you actually played in would not know such simple, basic, information that any person in a well run league would know.
You absolutely ignored the topics i put in boldface. The information you provided is irrelevant to the topics presented.
I’m firmly against any situation where players who’ve paid for a feature are restricted by league admins - especially when that single league customization tier costs so much.
If I’ve paid for full customization for one league, I should be able to use it, regardless of the league’s settings.
Preventing customers from accessing what they’ve paid for in the current MFN environment is a bad move. There are too few leagues, too few players, and the customization options are both overpriced and limited.
Players who’ve paid for customization will simply avoid leagues that block it. Over time, leagues that don’t allow customization will lose players. There are already not enough leagues and players, and too many customers aren’t getting what they paid for.
If someone pays for customization, no random admin should be able to deny them that. MFN should either make it automatic or give admins the option to enable customization for paying customers. If an admin refuses, and MFN continues to block customers from getting what they’ve paid for, customers will just go to a league that allows it.
The leagues that refuse customization will eventually fade out.
MFN is long past the point where trimming the herd is a good strategy.
Customers should get what they’ve paid for, no matter what the league prohibits. Alternatively, Admins could have the option to enable paid customers to access the product they’ve purchased. If I were to be refused, I would definitely leave that league. I'm not alone in the idea of getting what I paid for.
It’s like going to Walmart, buying a TV, and then being told, "Sorry, you only paid to use this TV in one place, and as an employee of Walmart, I’m saying you can’t use it at your home." Absolutely not. That’s exactly what happens when admins control a paying customer’s access to the product.
No random admin from where ever the heck ever should ever have the power to stop MFN from delivering what it's customers paid for. The legal liabilities are likely tremendous.

Simple answer: You do not find the point.
There are leagues where a approvement by the admin is required, and they run. There are leagues, where the admin gives limiting rules, and they run. And there are leagues, where YOU can do what you want, and they run.
