How is the Community Market feeling? (6)

@DrBear100_PSN dude, he’s trying to help here. He works on the app and that’s it. He sees how the app has been used to exploit the market place and is trying to put an end to it. There’s tens of thousands of dd players trying to use the marketplace and there were bots on almost every card in the marketplace that were preventing players from getting them and or flipping them. A few players may be initially having problems with the app, which was mentioned as a possibility when this filter was activated a few hours ago. You got an error. Noted. A couple others got errors. Noted. It’s should also be noted that I’m not noticing bots on any cards and I don’t see anybody else saying they are either. If you are on the side of the humans trying to play the game, take a chill pill and let him try to fix it. We’ve all been in here bitchein for them to fix this so let’s let it happen. This is great.
I do agree with you. They need to solve rhe problem with the promotion. As long as there continues to have real world money pumped into the these 3rd party sites which completely exploded because of promotion then these sites will continue to have the resources to find ways to undo the hard work @manu__sds_mlbts has done. If you IP ban the content creators that are promoting then thousands and thousands of followers will be like I don't want that to happen to me and stop purchasing from those sites and those sites will be sitting on a ton of worthless virtual currency and the bots will automatically slow down because why farm when nothing is moving? Is reCAPTHCHA necessary, yes but to have it this aggressive not if they take out the promoters.
You can go after the sites but they are criminals anyways so they'd just shut down the site and slither into the shadows never to be seen again, it'll be difficult.
I definitely don't evney Manu. He's got a near impossible job, hopefully this will succeed.
With that I have said my peace and I promise there will not be another word out of me about this topic. That's my peace offering to you @manu__sds_mlbts.

@Manu__SDS_MLBTS I can no longer buy or sell. I get a marketplace ban when i do one order. Tried 3 times after i started getting the error everyone else is talking about and have received a 15 minute, 8 minute, and currently now a 16 minute ban.
-
@senorcheff_psn, do a full close and restart of the app.
-
@SaveFarris_PSN I did after every ban. Even cleared cache and data after the second one. Still got banned after 1 buy order.
-
My account keeps getting cool downs. I wait the required time limit, and try again, and then the ban doubles. Companion app is broken.

Howdy,
At the moment, this is our best - and likely only - option for restoring fairness to the Marketplace while granting access from the App.
reCAPTCHA, combined with the other safeguards introduced this year, is clearly having an effect. Since this afternoon, we’ve recorded:
- 79,941 invalid requests
- 4,598 allowed requests
- 236 rejected requests
Approximately 99% of rejected assessments come from devices that cannot produce a valid assessment; those devices are consequently blocked from the marketplace. The impact on the Marketplace economy should become visible fairly quickly.
Invalid responses are almost certainly coming from devices we do not want accessing the App. However, a legitimate user can occasionally receive a rejected assessment. Repeatedly retrying after a rejection may be interpreted negatively by reCAPTCHA and further affect the device’s assessment.
The score is not based simply on how quickly orders are placed or canceled. It is calculated from a broad combination of signals.
If you receive a rejection, I suggest:
- Temporarily using the website to give your device’s reCAPTCHA reputation time to recover.
- Searching for
how to improve my reCAPTCHA score on a mobile devicefor additional guidance.
We have a vast numbers of parameter that we can continue to adjust to make this work as best as possible.
Thanks for sticking around and for being patient and supportive!

@Manu__SDS_MLBTS thank you Manu! The app has worked fantastically tonight and you can tell the difference with the marketplace margins. I had a couple of error messages earlier today but after signing out and back in that cleared them. Appreciate all you do!
-
I granted you a PASS, you should be good.
You have logged 13 consecutive (?) reCAPTCHA failures today... -
I googled how to improve recaptcha score. Turn off VPNs - dont have one on my phone. Sign into a Google account - I am. Use standard browsers - using the default that came on my Galaxy s21 ultra. Allow natural interaction - I do. Update your device - it is. Not sure what you want us to do man. Banning people from the marketplace for placing a single order is dumb and has nothing to do with "fairness"

Just tried to sell one common card for 11 stubs, banned. What fairness are we protecting?
