Why do you feel 0.01ing (other than bots) is a problem? As long as you put in the right price, the 0.01ers go away, leaving you with most if not all of the trade to yourself.
I see them as a challenge to overcome. They act as a deterrent to incompetent traders that might otherwise compete with me. It's very satiafying to start trading an item and watching the roaches scatter before you.

Ok, lets look at the markets after this change.
The margin between buy and sell has disappeared.
Prices overall will have inflated until a balance has been achieved.
However, due to the auto bid mechanism, and the inability to block shill bidders, that balance can be distorted at will for almost no cost.
Prices can be crashed with a single item bid being repeatedly run.
Result a completely disfunctional market, that can be manipulated into oblivion automatically.
Benefits? None.
Edit, whilst this can be done currently (and to a degree is) the manual delays make it painfully boring to do, and trading bots attempting it woukd be quite visible to CCP (probably)
There is one EvE. Many people. Many lifestyles. WE are EvE

I love how people completely ignore the fact that I suggested anti manipulation mechanics. |

Taking a bad idea and then putting an idea within it to make it marginally less bad does not make it good.
Swimming in acid is bad. Just because I bring inflatable water wings so I don't drown does not make it a good idea.
It's not just the manipulation part people dislike, every single other post in here is negative or outright mocking of your entire initial idea.
If you want to play the market, pay attention to your orders, or play the long game. If you are .01 isking, there will be times when you cannot update your orders. This is a part of market PvP, and will not be going away. |
