Account Restrictions
-
@greven840_PSN they banned me for flipping, 5 days I havent had access in the app.
-
@VOReason1976_XBL you can, it was poor action by SDS that bans actual users. There are blatant indicators that they aren't using. You unfortunately aren't the only one. But trying to remove the market entirely because theres a mistake is also missing the mark.
-
@VOReason1976_XBL and thats the marketplaces fault? No its the company with a flagged account that may be inaccurate. That's not a justifiable reason to eliminate it entirely, it should provide dialogue, development and advancement in metrics
-
@greven840_PSN then their algorithm needs improving and swift action taken in terms of humans getting banned.
They cant fix the app and clearly differentiate bots from humans
-
@greven840_PSN its not when they quite obviously cant differentiate between a bot and human.
-
@JDHalfrack_PSN they already have safeguards in place but they take awhile to confirm because they don't want to ban users flipping. A great example is several sites indicate a list of "flip cards" that have large margins, are moving quickly but also appear as mules, knowing that info the algorithm can pinpoint accounts abusing those time and again with significant success and those will absolutely display as bots and remove those. They're capable especially with all the data being run on their own servers. If you think a company run marketplace with no input from users will make the game more viable then more power to you, but that ruins the experience for many
This is actually a really bad way to discover bots. Large margins with large activity is the perfect place to buy/sell. In fact, I hate that SDS (if they do) or any site lists or uses them as potential bot activity. Those should be the cards people are actively looking for for making profit.
-
@VOReason1976_XBL that's what I just said lets read to understand not read to respond. There are workarounds to that issue and while mistakes do happen they could be easily addressed with a system in place
-
@JDHalfrack_PSN if you're unfamiliar then that's fine but they're never player cards. Its typically sounds, animations and bats that you know arent being sought after. So no SDS doesnt but other sites do and no you arent going to get massive margins on them because the bots just skip your bids. If you aren't aware of these options that's fine but I am pointing out those aren't impacting the general community in those instances.
-
@greven840_PSN ive just been told by Joe that I have to wait and there is no timeline for my ticket to be looked at. Just another thing that has been poorly implemented without a care as to who this might affect.
-
@VOReason1976_XBL exactly. Poor implementation is an SDS issue noy a marketplace issue. I think we are on the same page with enforcement and how to go about unlocking accounts. But restricting the app for actual users is completely counterproductive
-
@greven840_PSN at the moment I dont see any other way to stop the bots as they cant do this on a console.
-
@VOReason1976_XBL they can by emulating it to pc via Xbox primarily. It only stops the actual people, cheaters always find a way. Just like using cronuszen to hit or pitch. Theres even ones that make it so even if you try you cant swing at balls, so maybe you arent hitting hard but you dont chase anything so never have to worry. The idea that being highly rated in a video game has some significant impact and glorious prestige behind it because a few streamers are successful is debilitating and unfortunately the world of gaming now. This action does nothing to fix the issue it only makes it less enjoyable to the true users. Its like putting a rubber patch on a dam and sayin yep there we go, no further action needed lol.
-
@greven840_PSN there are 2 issues, 1 is companion app being overrun by bots, those bots are not using console. The other isn't even cronus zen, its a script called computer vision that hits and pitches for you as shown by kyle that has been around for over a year. They never banned anyone who did wbc glitch including kyle (i didn't) and yet here I am.
