There was a bot slaughter, but from what I heard it affected mostly 0.0 ratting bots. Would be pretty nice if they finally swept up some of the Jita market bots that are on 24/7.

There were at least three people 1isking one of my often quiet goods in Jita today. Maybe they just moved on? |

Something must be up, usually I'm pushing **** uphill just to make a bit of isk and today Its just fallen in my lap with bugger all effort. Have had some 0.1 isking but not that every obvious 5 minutes bull **** that I'm now used to.
Maybe just lucked out, or someone knows something i don't. I'll see how things are tomorrow when I'm
Probably broke lol

I noticed similar, normally a couple hours after I logoff for the night my orders grid to a halt but it was noticeable last night that I had a slow but pretty constant stream of both buy and sells.
If they really have banhammered a few market bots I'll be a happy little trader. |

Hey fellow traders
I've noticed the same, orders not sniped for hours, across all types of items.
Where they have been sniped I'm seeing less frequent updates, more consistent with someone
checking their orders every half hour or so. I am not seeing whole stacks of orders moving
every 5 minutes they way I'm used to.
But there isn't enough data to go on yet to determine if this is a fluke or something else.
If it's true that CCP has finally taken action against market bots after all this time, then we're seeing just
how staggering their impact on us human traders has been.
I hope that CCP realize how big a problem bots are - and if this is actually what Jita is like without them -
then I hope that people will never allow it to go back.

I can't see any change in Rens so far. Maybe they aren't actually bots there or something.
But I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed on this one for sure.

Don't get too excited, bots will be back and if ppl catch wind of Jita being more trader friendly again, human competition will pick up considerably. I've already stepped up my trading activities there since I found out. Many more will follow, nullifying a large portion of the banned bots. |

That is entirely acceptable.

To echo KrakizBad, that is indeed entirely acceptible and I have absolutely no problem with playing the market
against other players. People make mistakes when .01 isking, bots don't :-)

That is good news, nice job CCP  1k -2k bots is a prettty large number when you think even a single market botter with a decent sized xxbn+ wallet can cause havok on many, many items for regular players.

Don't forget the other trade hubs. I see trade pickup in the limited markets I'm involved in. Also nice prices on minerals and ice these days. Might have to light up some roids in celebration.

CCP confirmed in the devblog thread that they did look for market bots in the latest sweep, but no hard number on how many. I hope they follow up; it's been a good day for us human traders everywhere.

It's good to see some of the bot's gone and the .01 that goes with it but in truth there is no entrepreneurial mechanic in EVE. There is room for competition but we can't make a product better than it is. We can't create a market for a manufactured or even farmed module or ship if the stats say it's fail. We saw how quick the capitalism aspect of the Tier 3 battlecruiser came and went because it was a base T1 mineral product.
The last true venture market for EVE was T3 and that was years ago. Where people had to procure from scratch and try and command the markets. If CCP end up wiping out all the bots it may only serve to expose just how controlled the markets really are. |

What does that have to do with fighting a computer over .01 isk every 3 min?

.01 ISK isnt about profit and capitalism in EVE markets. it's about control of them. While removing the control mechanics is fine, the core problem still remains. Bots every 3 minutes gone will allow people to compete but there is no lack of that now, even without bots. The issue is in the markets truly available.

I think you missed the point of this thread. We're happy that one major problem has been visibly dealt with, even just a bit. We're not looking to solve every problem that the eve economy has by banning bots. If you want to whine about the problems therein, go start a thread about it. The rest of us will enjoy this mini-victory in the mean time.

Original thread is about filling orders. Sorry if I derailed your hi-jacking Goon Jr. It was a broader discussion on a similar aspect of EVE, not a whine. Sorry again to complicate your linear thought process. I wasn't aware CCP gave you a forum badge. |
