Why is auto snipping / disabling assets / gold botting allowed?

Some people have the game modified so much that they load faster than GGG on their local server, sell ~2000 items and post a few hundreds every day.

Some items are sold before they appear on the live search, how?

And how would you get so much gold and time do it manually? You wouldn't.

First screenshot shows what happens if you missprice something, other screenshots show how many items some of these accounts sell - 2000-3000+ items, last one is from the website that provide such tools as a prove what is possible and happening, there is much more going on.

Would love to know what GGG thinks about it.

Let GGG make sure everyone is swimming in loot and doesn't have to depend on resellers

Who exactly says disabling assets and botting is allowed?

It's a free to play game, u can make as many accounts as u want. So bot away, change ur game files, cheat however u want, but don't be surprised to get banned.
That's what those bot farms do, they don't care if they get banned, they'll have hundreds more set up and will just create a new account for the banned ones.

U won't ofc, because u care for ur account and the characters on it, so u'll always be at a disatvantage.

Before Async trade, even if hordes of bots insta whispered, usually the seller would have to invite someone at random, and although hard, a quick normal player still had a chance to be invited, specially if he whispered like 2-3 seconds later than the bots, he would be one of the last ones showing on the seller screen.

Right now its just bot fiesta. Even if you are half a second late, they will buy it first. Flippers are now fully automated. Profit is guaranteed. They are the only ones allowed to buy below average price items. This make strats like running valdos or inscribed ultimatums impossible to profit from, since whenever one of these items with a decent margin hits the market, its instantly bought and flipped by bots.

Email GGG they aren't gonna come into a General Discussion post and start chatting it up with you, It'll be a endless thread of people coming in and asking what questions they have as well.


Even if you posted this in Help & Information they would tell you to email them about this matter.

So, you're complaining about someone just being faster at sniping items?
This has always been an issue.
The API has always been abused, and there's only so much GGG can do about it.

On a side note, merchant tabs cost real money.
So an account banned is real money lost.
Let's wait and see where that elads...

After Async trade there are no more price fixers! That is important.
I don't care if bots or players buy from me.

Ah the drawbacks of automated offline trade :)

Well at least we now uave a very high price efficiency thanks to the automated scalpers.
