Greetings folks,
I want to share with those who want to know. We all know about .01 isk market grinding every 5 min time.
CCP could:
- CCP could change that to once a day at least. (to induce more client/trader relations, give more life to contracts)
- Maybe appying market pre and after hours with main hours.
- Define them in ET schedules and let it run.
- This will make market bots obsolete, to certain degree.
- Reduce number of people going for 1 ISK games and allow players do other stuff while not in main trading hours.
- Maybe applying main hours to different time zone sections. Lets say Caldari for Asia and Oceania, Amarr for Middle East, Gallente for Europe/Magreb and Minmatar for Americas.
- Certainly this wil shift traders dynamics as where to trade due to their time zones irl.
- That will also affect producers selling regions
- Maybe applying this only to citadels' markets?
I need constructive critics and ideas to improve that. .01 isk games are really a trade killer. More realism into it please.
CCP would?
There is nothing worthy in this world even if others think it is worth something...

They would simply break their orders out into more orders and continue undercutting you by 0.01 isk - and you couldn't even change your price to compete with them...
This is a horrible idea. |

Is that about correct? Just wanted to make sure I was correct in lumping you in with the "anti-gank HS miners" and "delayed local" folk.

why dont you just do that yourself instead playing the .01 isk game? you know, go do something else then adjust your order later? i see you want to remain at the top but it wont fix your problem because someone will just change the price after you then your stuck again all day rip no cigar, why do you want to force dedicated traders to be doing other activities?

Oh, boy...
Let's start at the top.
 There's nothing wrong with the .01 ISK game!
Tranquility Trade Wars is a viable and fun way to play EvE for quite a few players.
Constant updates and nursing investments is a feature not a flaw.
Now that that is out of my system, let's ask some questions:
First, how would any of this - in any way - obsolete bots?
Second, how would this affect the actual inter-empire trader? How long do they need to be online to actually buy and sell things in multiple areas?
Third...example time... I'm in the US, does that mean that I can only trade in Minmatar since I'll be at work during the other empires trade times. i'm not a big proponent of fire and forget orders...
Fourth.... Seriously... How is ANY of this a 'good thing'?

Wow. That was... original?
I honestly tried to think about the possible outcomes for this. They would be good for some, bad for others, but in any case I've got to disappoint you: if .01 ISK games are your problem, the suggested changes sure as hell aren't going to solve them for you.
Hypothetically, that would make market competition more strategic, requiring from traders to think ahead and study their competitirs' order patterns. At the same time, everyone would start placing items for sell in much smaller increments lest they have all their wares locked down for the day.
And it will favor those who can afford to spend more orders on a particular item. Oh, James, will it favor them. Right now, casual traders with one account and low trading skills can still have their 20 seconds of fame every 5 minutes even when bidding for a hot item. Even I am able to sell all my (significant enough) loot through sell orders in Jita (eventually) by updating the order 1-2 times a day. With your idea, casuals go straight out the window. It won't be any easier for the big traders either: they'll have to specialize more and waste lots of orders on one item.
To think of it, right now I'm even failing to find anyone who would be happy with this.
Verdict: if you don't want to play .01 ISK games, get out of Jita. Work hard or work smart, that's your choice. Either babysit your orders while station trading or do some legworkand bring your stuff to where people will buy it. |

Okay this one really got me LOLing in my chair. It is SO stupid I shall only say this as it sums up everything. And yes that is as "constructive" as I can post atm.
Have you heard anything I've said?

As noted above, people would just set up multiple orders so they can adjust the price more than once per day; 305 market orders per character, 3 characters per account... theoretically your "once a day" becomes once every 2 minutes, which is less than the "once every 5 minutes" that we currently have.
CCP could change the fee for modifying an order, so that changing the order for just 0.01 ISK costs a lot, making it unfeasible. But it still won't help any single person compete on the market.
Because it's not really "bots": you have 2,000 - 3,000 PEOPLE from all over the world competing, esp. on the popular items like PLEX and injectors, and even with a 24 hr. restriction you will still see orders being changed every minute or so. Because there are so many people. The server has anywhere between 20,000 and 30,000 accounts logged in at any moment during the day; it's not a stretch to imagine that 10% of them may be using a fundamental feature such as the market, without being bots. |

Now as triggering happened, we know them. As of course, they made instant assumptions regarding me.
Some said I play the .01 game like they know me. Reminds me of the guy in Jita who said I am racist because he assumed that Juanita was a latina maid. Now if I am also latino, then no racism, if me and JUanita are both white no either, and you can't find out either. Yelling spouts is much better, and that is why I liked triggered peope. They show the flaws you overlook yourself sometimes, which is very helpful.

You are individual that makes assumption regarding individual rather than constructively criticising the idea. So idea will live as long as people like you won't deal with the ideas. Your mindset is dangerous, including for yourself, and I am talking about real life as well.

Technically the amount of orders a player can have is truly limited to how many alts she is willing to use.

Well, just as told, put passive orders in regions out of your timezone and trade actively in the region of your timezone when it is your prime time. Seems like diverse game? Fourth.... Seriously... How is ANY of this a 'good thing'? minus all the 1's --Honestly Stunned Gadget
Setting passive orders in areas out of your region with forecasted prices for the trading cycle. When in your time zone trade in your own prime time in the active hour set. It can be distributed evenly. WIthin different hubs in same region different time sections applied. Bringing more activity to other trade hubs.

Yet again, I dont play it. Now, about newbies, more relaxed sequencing for them would mean easier life but it would also mean that other people would need more alts to have those restrictions, thus they will have to spend on subscriptions. Better for CCP. I feel like I need to describe this in full and send to CCP directly. But first, we got to discuss.

Then you should already know order limits are not limiting...
305 per character times as many characters as you want to use...
Your change will only hurt the casual traders and new players.
But since you clearly read all the posts and thought through your reply very carefully, I assume you already knew that. So your goal is to remove all small-time traders and give the market over entirely to the large-scale traders and bots? Good to know.

Alright, I see this is a hard case. Creating a more chalenging game for experienced traders by limiting them and their orders and less limits on new players and those with less SP. Thus old players will be making more alts for which they have to pay. Be it with PLEX or subscription. Not allowing some old traders to dominate whole market or niche. It will be Physically hard for old players to keep up and dominate everything. Giving more chance to the new players. Clear?

So does your limit of only 1 order update per day only apply to players over a certain character age or sp threshhold then? Otherwise I'm not seeing how limiting a new player who can only put up a few market orders to 1 order update per day is going to help him, when his competition can update their order 305 times per day or more to out-bid him by 0.01 isk...
Right now he has an equal chance - you are saying we should take that away from him. How is that good for him? |

One order update per order per day. More times for new players, less for olds. Also bots will be out because a bot without margins will go bankrupt. Bot with margins will be the only one to play .01 isk game and can be easily identifiable(in perfect scenario).
If you remove the least changable value and the most changable as unatractive the guy who uses bot will be facing changing constants of prices. He can make a clever guess but that will be quite hard.
Anyway, new players can update one order more time, older players can update 1 time for example. This way small traders can have same access or bigger access to goods. Which is more attractive for trader. What it means is the bigger you get the less orders and the more volume, unless you want to upkeep fleet of alts which is time consuming.

Or they could just create a new player alt and take advantage of not being limited to 1 bump per day...
Also as previously stated most 0.01 isk orders aren't even bots. These non-bots are the ones who will be hurt by having to maintain a bunch of alts. Bots will actually gain an additional advantage as they don't care how many alts they have to log into...
I really don't think you understand how this system works...
Also - since when is it a good idea to *punish* people for putting a lot of time and effort into becoming good at something like trading, and to reward people with minimal time/effort invested? This just seems backwards to me... |

Which is more attractive for trader. What it means is the bigger you get the less orders and the more volume, unless you want to upkeep fleet of alts which is time consuming. Or they could just create a new player alt and take advantage of not being limited to 1 bump per day... Also as previously stated most 0.01 isk orders aren't even bots. These non-bots are the ones who will be hurt by having to maintain a bunch of alts. Bots will actually gain an additional advantage as they don't care how many alts they have to log into... I really don't think you understand how this system works... Also - since when is it a good idea to *punish* people for putting a lot of time and effort into becoming good at something like trading, and to reward people with minimal time/effort invested? This just seems backwards to me...
Now i see your flaw. You are against equality of opportunity and for equality of outcome as you make such difference. The person with less changes to orders will not bankrupt, he will have to trade in bigger volumes. Besides such trading will greatly help producers. Specially those who lose from being ripped by intermediators that dont mind trading, they will be able to trade themselves and with better capabilities, and wont have to compete with hordes of players that do isk games. Younger players will have more possibilities and if you dont see logic behind it then I suggest you move on. Also bots are less of a burden and I do know how they work and I know that CCP does a good job catching them. Almost good.
There is nothing worthy in this world even if others think it is worth something...
